See ya later, kitty cat

After their talk, Keahi has felt the old, familiar ease with which she and Ruga banter return. Oh, how she enjoys spending time with the man and, when he began insisting on joining her for patrols, the red woman did nothing to deter him. While the woman is confident in her ability to fend off any predators that may be out roaming in pack lands, she will not pass up the chance to take the blacksmith away from his forge and out here, with her. The winter air is too cold for her liking but, with a thick woolen coat draped around her shoulders and the physical exercise, she is finding it easy to stay warm.
A subtle snap of a twig and soft rustling of branches is all the warning the pair get to the fact that there is predator here. Ruga stops and Keahi does the same, moving back a couple steps to shed her cloak as the blacksmith rushes in. With the cumbersome material now off of her, the red woman puts her legs to use and darts out and slightly around the cat’s side before angling back in. The fact that the mountain lion has wandered into pack territory to eat speaks of the effect that the winter is having on prey. But that is not the wolves problem.
With a snarl, Keahi strikes out of the feline’s back leg when she is close enough, earning low growls of anger from the animal. Once the bite is delivered, she backs up a few steps and darts a glance to Ruga, offering a small smile before they return to the attack.
