Here, kitty-kitty come and tighten the leash;
How 'bout a little discipline for the violent beast!

Despite the creature's best efforts, awareness seemed to seep into the male's posture. Disappointment crept into the mismatched eyes of the demonic woman, knowing she had lost the element of surprise thanks to the well-honed self-preservation of potential prey. As the male rounded the corner, Hush felt her ears slide back on her skull involuntarily, apprehension beginning to sink into her mind as she lost sight of him. Plop. The scent of blood had attracted her to him to begin with, hunger pinching hatefully at her stomach when she detected the metallic bouquet. Sitting around the corner out of sight, the demon's ears twitched at the sound of the body dropping. In the darkness, her ears strained for the tell-tale sounds of the male tucking into his meal, but the room was almost painfully silent save for the shuffling of massive paws. He set a trap for the boogeyman, amusement showed in the crazed woman's mismatched eyes.

Clinging to the shadows, Baba Yaga moved toward the pitch black room around the corner, appearing in the dark like a mist. Her paws were silent as she moved closer to the seal carcass, her dark nose twitching in the dark, searching to pinpoint the male's location. She didn't move too far away from the door, the giantess effectively blocking his exit and giving herself a chance to escape if needed in the same motion. Reclining back on her haunches, the woman issued a sound that very closely resembled a cat's purr, double vocals harmonizing within her throat; it was a sound to ensnare and enchant. As if she didn't already have his full attention the moment she materialized in the room, Hush spoke softly, giving her voice a more ethereal feel than sounding as if there were two beings speaking in sync. "Is being clever, for surely. I is knowing you close-by." Her heavy accent and broken common tongue gave her away as a foreigner, but it did not deter the wicked witch. "Am smelling you..." Dual-vocals gained a menacing but low and controlled growl as Hush slipped back into deeper shadows, where it would be difficult even for night-vision to spot her. The covered furniture and assorted wreckage made it easy to blend into the whites and blacks of the room as she slipped without a single sound to the side of the room. The effect of her motions would see that she simply disappeared from the doorway even as he stared at her silhouette, soundlessly she sat in statuesque stillness as she waited to hear the male's response.

From this angle, Hush found her eyes catching on a dim orange glow bouncing about, a wide smile curling her painted lips. Like a ghostly snake, the monster slipped up beside the source of the glow, drawn in like a demonic moth to flame. Jade and amethyst glittered in the pale glow, a testament to her proximity as she waited for their light to fall on her crazed face. Hoping to startle him with her sudden appearance so close to his side, Hush was prepared to move if she had to avoid those deadly looking saber-teeth. "Boo." She whispered, dual-toned voice somehow sounding darker than the room around them, sinister and bone-chillingly close to his ear. Her action was followed up by an instant back-peddle and thrilled, crazy giggles. She couldn't pass up the opportunity, and wanted to share the seal, though it never was truly intended for her. If he was going to tease a stranger, he needed to know how dangerous she could truly be.
