Uh... Little Help?

Arc crouched behind the rock that was providing him cover and he waited eagerly for any sounds coming from where Ricin and the herd were waiting. Soon enough he heard a commotion as Ricin leapt into action and barked to startle the pronghorn into running. He could hear their hooves hitting the ground and their startled cries and quickly the sounds grew louder as they were herded over to him. He waited just a moment longer to let them get closer before he jumped out from his hiding spot right into the path of one of the pronghorn.
It attempted to skid to a stop so it could redirect its path away from him, but it was too late. It was already within his reach so he hooked a paw into its shoulder, his claws gripping into it and yanking it down to the ground in front of him. A swift bite through its neck with his saber fangs finished that one off quickly. He let that one go quickly so he could chase down one of the others that had gotten a few feet away and tackled it, knocking it to the ground and holding it down before he gave it a similar fate as the first. The third one was a ways off by the time he got back to his paws and he probably could have caught up to it, but two pronghorn was already a pretty good haul so he let it go.
With the hunt complete he looked back to Ricin with a grin as he licked his lips clean. "Good job! That was quick and easy. You grab that one and I’ll carry this one and we’ll get these back to the pack.” He hoisted up the pronghorn in question and started heading back, glad that he had decided to make himself be social for once.
