Came for deer but I'll grin and bear it

Kotori had headed into the steppes after seeing signs of deer slots along the ground and after a little while, he spotted their hoof prints. There wasn't much to hide behind in the form of trees in this big area but the stones and over any little hill could make surprises appear.
The deer smelled close. Kotori crept forward to peer behind a stone, expecting to find a lone deer and in a sense he did. It looked like the bear had just killed it, the animal still bleeding and lots of meat available to eat.
The grizzly roared in anger, standing over its kill, then walking towards Kotori. Apparently, it wasn’t content to just defend his prey. Well, Kotori hadn’t planned to let the bear keep it anyway. The bear charged and Kotori did the same. The wolf pivoted wide before the bear could lunge right on top of him. The wolf bit into a meaty shoulder, jumping away before the bear could grab him. Hah! It was upset now, but it’d calm soon. Death always took away the emotions after all.
