A Little Adventure Between Siblings

The pup chases the fast rabbits a short way off, his little legs pumping hard as he tries to keep up the quick creatures. Honestly, if they had kept going straight, Malico would have lost them from their speed alone but luck, or stupidity, is on his side as two of the four make a mistake and suddenly break toward the right. The boy cuts away with them, chasing them into a dead end where he swiftly catches and dispatches of the two creatures. Gathering the two dead animals in his maw, the purple pup then makes his ways back to where his sister waits and finds her still there, still waiting.

Grinning around the dead rabbits, Malico comes to a stop in front of her and drops the kills, saying, “Got us a snack!” Sure, the beasts are small but, to their small stomachs, it can be a feast. Not waiting for Mariah to pick, the boy automatically pushes the bigger of the two toward her before grabbing the smaller one as his own and sinking down to his belly. Hunting takes a lot of energy and the pup’s stomach growls angerly as he takes his first bite. As he chews, Mal says, “So. Mint. Whatca gonna use it for?” Sure, he isn’t interested in herbs but Mar is and that means that will listen to anything and everything she has to say about them.
