It had been a while since she had crafted anything from the pelt or bones of an animal. She longed to get back at it, to try and make something new. Maybe one of her children would appreciate a new fur or perhaps a weapon? She didn't know, but if they were then she would be happy to make it for them.. or ideally with them. Bonding with her children was her new favorite hobby now that she was back to herself and though she knew she could never get that time back  with them, she was certainly trying to make up for lost time.

Resting atop one of the many hills, there was a herd of buffalo beneath her that she knew better to take on alone. Hell, even one other partner would still make it a tough battle. What she would do to have the pelt of one though, or the horns even. She could get so much made from such a large specimen, but she knew it wasn't in the cards today. However, it appeared that a cougar wasn't nearly as smart as she. Chuckling as it was ran off by the herd, she hardly expected it to retreat up her hill.

Widow stood to make her presence known and growled at the cougar, however that seemed to only piss it off further. Snapping her jaws, her teeth clicked in a second warning to the feline but it wasn't backing down from two fights in a row. Lunging for the woman, Widow side stepped out of the way quickly and snapped at the felines tail, grabbing it between powerful jaws and tugging. Though granted, it wasn't the greatest idea as the feline turned and clawed at her hip. One yank of the tail though and the feline was sent rolling back down the hill. She stood and watched, assuming the cougar to retreat from this battle as well, but much to her surprise... it didn't. And up the hill it climbed again. Widow sighed and stood her ground, hoping that climbing the hill would exhaust the stupid cat.

Flare was crafting rabbit pelts into bedding when a cougar rolled down the hill, and almost hit him. He jumped to his paws, the pelts falling into the mud to the side of him. He huffed at them, and then at the cougar, expecting a fight - when it charged back up the hill instead. What the fuck? “Oye! Answer for your crimes” he yelled at the beast, following it up the hill. There, he found a gold trimmed wolf with eyes almost as light as his own. Pretty.

He leaned forward and swiped the back of the cougar's legs out from under it, and it fell. Almost over the hill again, but it caught itself before rolling. He grinned at the angry cat as it turned, hissing and spitting at him.

She hadn't seen the cougar topple into the other's work until he rose and yelled at the feline. Perhaps now would be a good time to retreat, but the stupid cat was exactly that... stupid.

Chuckling when the fire-painted wolf swiped at the cougar and sent it back down the hill, she carefully trotted down the hill towards them both. He was a rather handsome man, though he focus was set on the cat as she approached from behind it with it's focus on the other wolf.

Dipping her head low, she snapped her fangs and wrapped her jaws around the heel of the cougar and tugged the leg back in an uncomfortable manner, but it was really her fangs doing all the work as they threatened to sever the vital tendons and ligaments that allowed the feline to walk using all four paws.

THe cougar’s attention was firmly on him now. He wasn’t sure why it was so aggressive, so hell bent on fighting the wolves, but it was clear it wasn’t going to go down easily. Perhaps it had some pups in the area to protect. But whatever the reason, he didn’t care. His blood was up now, and the beast had marked itself his enemy.

When the stranger grabbed at its back leg, he leaped forward. Mindful of its teeth as its head snaked at him. He bopped it on the snout with metal claws, keeping it from reaching back and attacking the tall dark wolf as she worked to maim it.

Oh fuck it, why not break it's leg? It wasn't like this cougar was going to get away from them now, anyway. Clenching her jaws around the cats legs, she felt the tendons snap before her teeth pierced into the bone. The cat yowled and hissed, though whether it was from the pain she was causing it or the bop from the man's massive paw she didn't know. Nor did she really care.

With a strengthened grip on the felines heel, she jerked her head suddenly to the side and pulled the cougars hip out of socket easily. With a shake of her head she felt the bone she wrapped her fangs around snap, though the force of the motion easily brought the cat down onto it's side with a heavy thump. It tried to curl up to swipe at her, but she kept herself positioned just out of reach as silver eyes watched and dodged each desperate attack.

Once the gold-trimmed wolf completed the actions that would break the cougar's leg, not even Flare smacking its head around could keep it from turning. Trying to bite at the one causing it so much pain. It’s movements were jerky and desperate now, and it failed to grab at its target. When its neck turned far enough, Flare took the opportunity. He jumped forward and wrapped his teeth around its neck. His elongated fangs pierced its throat.

He felt the warmth of its blood slip through his teeth, and then he tore. Ripping its throat out. Silently, the mountain lion wobbled once, and then fell to the ground at his paws.
