Armada Expansion: Fighting

Gossamer rounded out the group before Sirius began to explain what they were doing. Aris had mixed feelings about the plan. On the one hand she was excited to go clear the land of predators and kick some butt. On the other,she was a bit concerned that they were already expanding before they had actually gotten a tight grip on the new lands they already had and they might be spreading themselves too thin for the amount of warriors they had. But her father was alpha, and she was not, and he was experienced, and she was not, so she kept her mouth shut and trotted alone obediently. Even if nothing else, they would be having a good bit of fun fighting predators and would be eliminating potential threats to the pack lands.

A fierce grin showed her oversized fangs when the pack of coyotes was spotted. Driving them off would let them save their energy if they needed to chase away more predators later, but she wouldn't mind leaving a few canine bodies along the way. The smaller wolf-like "cousins" were enough like wolves to really work off some built up frustrations, without the social constraints and taboos on killing an actual wolf. Aris was more than happy to throw herself into the fray, coming up behind Gossamer to sink her teeth into the scruff of a coyote who was treatening Gossamer's flank. Blood spurted as her thick fangs sank further than an ordinary wolf's would, and the coyote began to shriek. Aris' eyes slitted, almost seeming to glow like polished gold with the heat of the fire in them.
