Catch and not so release

After she had presented her simple, straight forward plan to Kichi he offered his own slight addendum and she grinned, nodding in agreement. "Sounds like we have a plan." She always appreciated hunting with someone that didn't need to have much explained to them or needed to over theorize on the best way to do something. Sometimes she just wanted to enjoy the hunt and let what happened happen which seemed to at least somewhat be Kichi's style as well. She motioned for him to move ahead of her and go to take his position. She made sure to watch him as he went so that she would have an idea of where he was hiding out so that when she started driving the reindeer and chasing them away from their current grazing spot then she could guide their target toward him to make the ambush.

She waited in cover until she saw the movement stop in the gently rustling brush and reeds. Grinning slightly and coiling her legs under her, she waited for the adolescent reindeer to start foolishly wandering a short distance from the rest of the herd in its perceived safety and comfort before leaping out from her hiding place, darting forward with easy, powerful strides toward their prey. She ran at them with snarls and growls, her lips pulled back over her teeth. The large prey animals immediately turned to run the opposite direction from her. She rushed in to cut off the path of the younger deer, making it rear up and bellow as it pivoted to avoid her. She snapped at its legs to get it moving again, forcing more space between the herd and the one they intended to bring down. As soon as the reindeer was going in the right direction where Kichi would have a good opening to slam into it to knock it off of its hooves, she made her move and leaped forward to catch the back of one of its hind legs between her jaws, her teeth tearing and shredding the tendons and causing it to immediately begin to limp and cut its movement and speed in half.
