sleepless nights

Grimshaw listened as the boy spoke of the raccoon being his meal and went on about sharing the small raccoon. He wasn't sure about this kid, but a whole raccoon wouldn't even be enough to satiate him. But maybe he could keep the fur. Raccoons were soft anyway. He didn't blame him about wanting to avoid letting the glowing coyote get to the raccoon and agreed once the other boy had motioned for him to go to the coyote he seemed to believe was hiding in the bushes across from the one his raccoon hid in.

When he leapt out, Grimshaw was quick to follow and headed for the bush the second coyote laid in wait inside. As he approached, the coyote burst free from the shrub and was quick to yelp in fear and bolt as fast as it's legs could carry it. Somehow, the shrub had hidden the glowing pattern it also had across it's pelt and as Grimshaw bounded after the smaller canine, he wondered if anything on the inside of the coyote had changed. Did it's blood glow too? What about it's bones or organs? With the thought in mind, it only drove him harder after the canine as it ran.
