Hunter By Trade, Mother By Accident

The pup pouts up at her mother, wanting nothing more than to go charging in and scare all the big fluffy creatures. But her mother is smart and the girl knows that she has is a very good reason for holding her back. Unagi nods at her mother’s words, trotting alongside Cel while her eyes move to where Arne and Tethys are. From there, her gaze moves to where Hazel and Zoey are, realizing that everyone is already taking up their positions to take on the bison. All the information that is being given makes complete sense and the round pup nods firmly as her mother finishes up.

Turning her gaze up to her mother, the girl whispers, “Everyone has a purpose. Are hunts always like this? You know… with everyone doing something?” She has never been on a big hunt before and it is interesting to her how each wolf was given a task and they all seem to know what to do. Her mom is talking again and Unagi nods excitedly, tensing her body and lowering her center of gravity as she readies to charge in and scare off the other bison. The air seems to buzz with anticipation as Cel counts down and, at the quiet yip, the girl is off like a shot.

Unagi is great at making a lot of noise and, as she rushes toward the bison herd, the pup makes as much of a racket as she can. Her mother easily lopes along beside her since it seems to take a lot more effort for the rotund puppy to close the distance (most of her movement is up and down instead of actually forward). Thankfully, the bison see her, or to be more accurate, all of them, as a threat and the mothers and calves beginning to split off and run away. All the pup can think about is how much fun she is having!
