Morningside Cuesta summer flame

The stranger - and by now, Sunspot's nose had told her that it was a stranger - was quick to act, charging after the doe even as the Huntress felt her strength and speed returning to her. Now that she didn't feel quite so hopeless, the doe seemed to move much more slowly, to act much more stupidly. In fact, when the stranger charged and the doe switched directions, Sunspot found herself in just the right place.

"Yesyesyesyes!" she cried. With a few furious leaps and bounds, the woman's body punched into the doe's side, where she immediately began to rip and tear.

The doe shuddered from the impact, but didn't fall. Once again, she tried to switch directions, this time turning back toward the river. As if that'll stop us! the Huntress thought, falling away as the doe managed to shake her off. But it didn't matter. She was between a river and two wolves, and Sunspot would not be letting her get away. The woman surged forward to snap at the doe's haunch, leaving a painful, bloody puncture wound and receiving a hard kick in return. It hurt, but she shook herself off and followed doggedly after the now-injured doe, her eyes sliding toward her unexpected hunting partner as she did.
