are you edible?

Kuroo's focus lingered on the rock appearing mammal that bobbed in the water. With one ear turned toward their Kaicho and his brother, he listened. Already, his body was stiffening and muscles coiling in preparation to hunt the beast. Was it a beast? Surely, it was large enough to be considered one. Even at the words of Hattori, Kuroo nearly wanted to scoff. Experienced hunters or not, none of them had any idea what this animal was. How would they take it down with no knowledge? Surely, they should examine it first. Watch it from a distance and see if it moved or exhibited any sign of aggression.

He wouldn't have the chance to do so. With one look from Usagi that told him everything he needed to know, his paws began to prowl slowly into the waters. A bit more finesse than his darker coated brother, the water barely rippled as he entered. With ease, Kuroo sank into the shallow depths and moved along the other side of the creature. Creeping closer to the behemoth of a rock, it didn't seem to mind their close proximity. Round and smooth with hardly a sharp tooth to show them, he wondered if it would let them kill it. Floating on the surface to die as if it didn't care.

Around him, the water's current strengthened as Usagi dipped down and gave the creature a good chomp on its tail. Beady eyes flicked over to him in confusion and frustration as it began to flail a bit. Nothing much more than that. Figuring he needed to get an idea of how thick this animal really was, Kuroo gave some space first before paddling over to bite at his flipper. Thick, hard, and nearly impossible to breakthrough. No wonder it didn't care. The beast had skin thick enough to keep it protected. Surely they would need their Kaicho's assistance for the final blow.

Releasing the animal's flipper as it began to flail a bit harder now, Kuroo moved a bit closer to go for the skin where the flipper connected to its main body. It was a bit softer there, not as protected to make for easier movement. While ripping its flippers off wouldn't be as effective, it could be a start. His eyes flicked over to the skin under the beast's face and wondered if it was softer there too. Glancing over at Hattori on the shore, his eyes would say it all. Their Kaicho was larger, stronger, and had enough expertise to take it down. If he and Usagi held it in place to keep it from escaping, this would be an easy job done.
