Nunataq avoided Lucas's nip and - now bursting with energy made another two laps of a larger diameter, before stopping again to estimate, how far had her opponent got. Panting and with her sides heaving from exertion, she fell to her haunches and watched Lucas approaching her, while the wheels of her mind were turning, looking for the next best idea. She realized then that it would be quite impossible for her to engage him in a full fledged game of racing and chasing. He was slow and would eventually give up. This meant that she had to change her tactics - and she did by flopping on her belly and letting her brother catch up with her, meeting him with happily wagging tail and mouth parted, piranha teeth revealed, ready to engage in a stationary jawspar.
