To the hunt!

She waited, tense, for Ara to give the go ahead. It was very clear that the reddish wolf was in charge here. She crouched, ready to spring, and all but vibrated with the need to as she waited. The deer came closer, and the two wolves were lucky that the wind was still, and didn’t take their scent to the deer.
The deer came closer, and closer. Until they were right on with the wolves. Come on, come on… she thought. And then Ara howled, and Sera tossed back her head, answering the call as she leapt from the bushes and dove after the deer. They didn’t have far to lead them, and they chased the deer forward, into the pit. Ara dove over it, and Sera moved around it. The two lead deer crashed into the pit, and the following deer saw the danger and scattered to the sides. Sera let them go. Jumping into the pit, she took a hoof to her head. It dazed her, but the scaled absorbed most of the impact, as she ignored the pain and clamped her teeth across its throat. Holding it still, careful not to get hit again by thrashing legs as it died beneath her teeth.
