Would you like an apple pie with that? [AW]
Cautiously wading towards the elk, the brute eyed it as he tried to decide if it was sufficiently drowned. It lay partially on its side with its head floating on the water. Each wave that rolled towards the shore washed over its head and because of this, its breath came in bubbling fits. Undoubtedly it was aware of the wolf stalking it, but there was little it could do besides weakly thrash and it saved those brief bursts of energy for the King's more threatening movements. Its head dipped under the water once more and Valentine seized the opportunity to close the distance between them. He dove for the throat and once he'd gripped it, he held on for dear life as the elk renewed its thrashing. It drug him through the water and it took all of his strength to remain upright. Long seconds passed before the thrashing ceased and Valen felt comfortable with releasing his grip. Winded, Valentine straightened and glanced around him as he tried to catch his breath. |
NOTE: Valentine has a female striped skunk companion named Lefty. Unless stated otherwise assume she's present.

The brute's head turned around lazily. He took his time in regarding the skinny fae. Was she familiar? Had he met her before? He didn't think so. One eyebrow quirking up in a silent question, he rumbled, "Nope." It was possible she'd heard of him, or maybe, if she was part of a pack, she'd seen him at a gathering or something, but he was fairly certain he'd never laid eyes on her before. After a moment's thought he turned around completely so he was facing the stranger. She didn't look like much, but that wasn't an excuse for cockiness. It was in his best interest to face this unknown, whoever she might be, head on. |
