Like Clockwork

The ridge erupted into a flurry of motion and sound. Eltrys leaped from cover and the antelope balked, heading towards Taiga. When the lioness did the same, the herd began to barrel towards the natural dip in the land. That trail would take them right over the ridge and into the pit. Hopefully, at least.

The antelope were quick, but Taiga was large and her bounds covered a lot of ground. She couldn't spare a glance for Eltrys to see how he was doing, trusting the wolf to hold up his side of the chase. Claret colored eyes were intent upon the fleeing ungulates. As they began to sway away from the path, Taiga brought them back front and center with a loud chuff and a swipe of a massive paw. Right down the funnel they went and the pair of predators were almost ready to have a nice, fresh dinner.
