It would only take a few strides before the older doe would begin to slow. He sees Tethys take advantage of the opening. Watching her clamp down on a leg, blood droplets falling down onto the pine needle floor. Yes, this was their chance! Wilder pounces forward, snapping at the doe's other hind leg, but instead clacks his teeth together loudly instead of around her thin bone and tendon.
Surprisingly, the older doe had found a surge of energy and burst forward from their grasp. A growl rumbles in his chest as he lets his ears fold backward, determination clearly reading across his face. "We can get her," Wilder calls out to Tethys as he surges forward with his own burst of energy back toward the doe. This time, he doesn't taunt her into continuing to run. No, rather, he bends down and uses the motion and force to propel himself upward and onto the doe's thigh.
His teeth dig into her thigh, dull claws trying to find purchase as she kicks out. Her terrified bleats are soon muffled by sounds of pain as Wilder continues to bite down on her, pulling himself closer toward her spine so that his heavy weight might make her stumble.
