Chade had been roaming the land with Swift, searching for more prey the young cheetah could practice hunting.  Chade had been following the scent of a rabbit when he spotted canine forms in the distance.  The scent of coyote and the scent of his pack came to him.  There would be another time for rabbits.  

Chade didn’t bother with chasing off other predators and instead preferred to just kill them.  It was a way to grow stronger and there was satisfaction in killing animals that he used to run from.  Chade ran towards Relm and the coyotes, Swift coming up alongside easily though with more hesitation.  She wasn’t the fighter that Chade was, perhaps in the future but for now, she was still shy of serious fights.

Chade glanced to Relm for a moment but he didn’t have much time as he never slowed his stride.  Chade slammed his larger body into one of the coyotes, teeth grabbing for the nape of its neck, biting deep and thrashing with a much more menacing snarl than what he used to have.  The coyote shrieked in surprise and struggled.  Its teeth snapped for Chade’s neck but seemed to only be grabbing at his fur.
