I was just hangry.

Inferna listened intently, her eyes locked on the goat that Deimos pointed out. She nodded enthusiastically, her determination solidifying as she absorbed his instructions like a sponge. This was her chance to prove to an King that she could be more than just a pup in need of help, and that was a pretty big deal to Fern.

When Deimos moved to take his position, Inferna felt a mixture of excitement and nerves. Her heart pounded in her little chest, but she pushed aside her worries. She couldn't afford to mess this up and look helpless. She had no idea Deimos could handle this on her own, she was absolutely sure she was contributing.

As soon as she saw Deimos wave his paw, signaling he was ready, Fern took a deep breath and steadied herself. She focused on the goat he had chosen, its head down, munching on grass, completely unaware of the danger lurking nearby.

With a sudden burst of energy, she leaped out from her hiding spot, her small form darting towards the herd. She let out a few sharp barks befitting of a wolfdog, her high-pitched voice echoing off the cliffs. The goats reacted immediately, their heads snapping up in alarm. Inferna grinned and zeroed in on their target, her eyes alive with a fire that told all how much she was enjoying this.

She did exactly as Deimos had instructed her to, charging at the herd and driving the chosen goat toward where he was hidden. Her legs pumped furiously as she kept up the chase, pushing the goat closer to Deimos. The thrill of the hunt coursed through her veins, and for a brief moment, she forgot all about her hunger and her mother's warnings. This was fun. This was about proving how strong she was, and she was doing it! Even if she was still young.

As she drove the goat closer to Deimos, she glanced in his direction, her coral gaze flashing with her excitement. She was ready, trusting him to finish the hunt and bring down their prey.
