If Vitus was talented at anything thus far, it was tearing things apart. He'd grown fascinated by it, spilling blood, and thus was very good at it. A smile pricked on his features (just barely) as he waited for her to confirm she was hungry. How could she not be after such a long journey? She quickly dismissed the idea, though, seeming to prefer doing her own thing. He could appreciate that notion. He often did things for himself, even when he didn't have to. But then she later went on to state that she might need something to eat after all. Good. This was a problem he could very easily solve. He wouldn't have time to kill something, but he could just as easily snag something previously killed and then replace it later after he'd departed from her. That seemed the most logical solution. He gazed up at Carlisle and nodded. "Vitus will go and fetch you something to eat. The mangroves do wonders for filtering the water here, so if you'd like a drink while you wait - feel free." Vitus nodded stiffly and turned toward where the pack normally stored food. He had personally dropped off a few rabbits this morning, so he knew that there would be fresh meat there to share with her.
As he left her he picked up a smooth, practiced trot. He knew just about every inch of the mangroves, as he had trained here for hours on end. As he neared the place where they normally left kills, his nostrils flared and his jaws gaped open - embracing the scent. He dipped his head low, examining the prey. There were several that were older, but the two new rabbits he'd left this morning were still there - undisturbed. He snatched the larger one in his jaws, carrying it by a single hind limb. The thing had been split open stem to sternum, but not a bite had been eaten of its flesh. It was obvious it was his kill, given the shredded state it was in. However, no matter it's state - it was perfectly fit for eating. It bounced limply in his jaws as he trotted back toward where he had found her. Moments passed before he finally reached her, not having been gone long enough to bore her, but long enough to travel such a distance. He neared her and let the rabbit slip from his jaws, landing with a thud upon the earth. His tail swiveled once behind him as he waited - hoping she liked rabbits.
