Armada Expansion: Hunting

Kotori chose to focus on the scent of the ox and the path they took instead of the wolves with him at first, though Bas did get a sidelong glance at a point.  “How much experience do you have hunting Bas?” It was said with honest curiosity.  He was part of the family and thus of more interest to Kotori.  The pup was a year old now and better have the skills to prove he’d been training hard.  No true Fatalis would fail to learn and those who had failed to make the most of themselves had no right to their family name.

It was good to see the abilities of their stalker and this new member of the pack but Kotori was more interested in family.  When Wren checked she had Kotori’s name right the arrogant prince quirked a brow that she needed to ask.  In the horned wolf’s mind, any member of the pack should know just who he was. “That’s right.  Kotori Fatalis.”  Just in case she didn’t realize he was also Sirius’ son.

She chose to go off with the new wolf and Kotori decided that was perfectly fine.  He and Bas wouldn’t be as close to the water where it was even colder than it was here.  The wind would be worse closer to the water.  Continuing to stand Kotori listened carefully and finally spotted the ox heading towards them. Kotori’s body tenses with a desire to spring but he waits for the prey to move closer.  No need to charge it when the other two wolves would bring the ox straight to them.

Kotori widened the distance between him and Bas, plenty of room for the ox to try and run through.  Once the ox was in close Kotori rushed in, his attention on the prey’s neck, but with a moment’s decision going for a leg instead, snapping teeth into a leg to make sure the ox won’t be able to escape them.  The ox swings its head around with most likely some idea of slamming into the wolf which bit him.  Kotori lets go, taking one stride back just in case but not going far, expecting Bas to make good use of that moment the ox had to slow and look away from the larger wolf.
