The day is warm and great, puffy white clouds drift lazily across the blue sky. Kore meanders his way around towering stone pillars, lost in thought even as his body moves. Distracted, the galaxy hued boy does not see or smell the large grizzly that has taken a keen interest in him. A roar splits the air, pulling the boy from his tumbling thoughts as he rounds on the sound, finding the huge beast charging at him. Lips pull back to reveal his sharp teeth and the boy painted in galaxies, deftly sidesteps the hulking creature’s charge. Snapping around, Kore delivers a powerful bite to a hind leg before leaping away from the follow up swipe. Wolf and bear face each other, the grizzly trying to stare down the boy and Kore is not scared for a moment.

"Kore Regni"

Kotori had been keeping busy as of late.  The Sumatar of Valta had been hard at work growing his pack to be more than the scrappy new pack on the block.  Numbers had slowly grown and hopefully would continue to rise.  Dens and storage areas being built up along with the bridges.  The games and party would start soon and it would be a good chance to see how things went.

Kotori had been roaming, looking for a meal when he heard something else promising instead. The roar of a bear split a smile on Kotori’s face.  Everyone needed hobbies and killing bears was a perfectly reasonable one.

Kotori came into sight of the absurdly colorful wolf and the bear it had found to fight.  Kotori charged up from behind, leaping onto the bear, fangs biting down into its neck, working to pull always what flesh he could before the bear stood up on two legs, causing Kotori to leap back off.

"Kotori Fatalis"

Kore growls at the huge grizzly as it tries to be intimidating and the boy smirks when it roars in his face. A flash of earthen colors behind the bear alerts the galaxy colored wolf to the arrival of help. As the bear’s attention is pulled to the wolf that is now on its back, Kore lunges upward at the exposed part of the neck. Teeth sink in and he trashes, ripping apart fur and fat with his large saber teeth. It roars and the boy is forced to retreat as a huge paw swings out for him. It rids itself of the wolf on its back and Kore darts a glance to the taller male, offering a smirk as he readies for the next attack.

"Kore Regni"

The bear’s neck was starting to take on a red shade wherever you looked, top or bottom.  Swinging its head between the two wolves it roared in both anger and desperate attempt at intimidation.  The bear did something to prove it smarter than many of its kind and turned to run away.  Pointless.  Kotori would have chased it down anyway but also foolish.  The bear was running north, towards Elysium.  Kotori wasn’t about to help encourage a bear into his neighboring pack's turf!

Kotori ran past the bear, swinging around in front to face it, snarling.  The bear didn’t stop and attempted to just charge through the wolf.  Kotori was forced to avoid the charge, getting out of the way but he bit into the animal's front right leg as he did, pushing on his brakes.  The bear could have tried to drag him of course but that would have just made the wound worse.  The bear swung a fist around, making Kotori back off.

"Kotori Fatalis"

The bear is not having a good day as the wolves rip into its neck from all angles. Kore readies to attack when the grizzly makes it final bad decision and turns tail to run. It shocks the galaxy-hued boy to see a predator make a such a glaringly bad choice and it causes him to hesitate as the earthen male quickly follows. Bright blue eyes follow the taller male, watching as he avoids the bear when it charges right at him.

Kore’s mind finally catches up with the moment and his legs churn, pushing him up to and around the side of the bear. As it swings a paw at the stranger on the right side, the galaxy-clad wolf races up its left side to leap at the open wound on the creature’s neck. Teeth find purchase and open it further while nicking the artery underneath. Hot, arterial blood arches through the air as Kore back peddles to avoid a clumsy aimed swipe at him. Darting a glance to the male, the boy watches to see if he will finish it off or allow it to slowly to bleed out.


"Kore Regni"

Kotori isn’t going to let the bear go forward.  As Kore goes for the neck Kotori is charging into to face the bear eye-to-eye.  Still, as he readied to charge in he spotted the flashy colored wolf managed to hit an artery, and the only already badly damaged bear was guaranteed death.

Kotori would never have labeled himself soft-hearted or concerned about any other sort of predators but that didn’t mean he saw any reason to be cruel just for the sake of it.  Anyway, he enjoyed fighting so while it was hardly a challenge anymore Kotori would finish what had been started.  The horned wolf charged in, slamming his horns into the opposite side of the neck, slashing them out, and then sinking his fangs into the wound.  

Kotori stepped back, watching as the final glimpses of life were already fading. The pool of blood had grown considerably.
