The plan is sound, and Iðunn agrees wordlessly with a single nod, wasting not time in stalking towards the bush in a circular path to stay downwind and out of sight. The young buffalo was obliviously munching away on the grass, its back half-turned to her location. Once hidden within the bush she crouched, head swiveling to glance back at Terra and make eye contact. She slightly raised a forepaw to signal she was ready, and then returned her full focus back to the young buffalo.
Terra is off with astounding speed, and Iðunn can hear the cacophony of warning roars and snorts from the adults. The young buffalo is alerted, but it's far too late as Terra sends it running her way. Tilting forward on her tiptoes, she waits eagerly, almost vibrating in anticipation as both wolf and buffalo get closer and closer until finally-
She leaps forth from the bush. The young buffalo lets out a squeal as Iðunn lands on its flank, for a moment almost slipping off but finally latching on with her jaws around its knee. With a twist of her head she dislocates the joint and the young buffalo stumbles, but doesn't quite fall. But now it was hobbled, and she continued to work her jaws into the flesh, digging her back heels into the ground to slow it further. It was now Terra's turn to make a move.
