Swiftcurrent Creek The Hunter's Arrow Shines · Pack Hunt

Rach - slight powerplay of Scimitar's.. head.. position? I hope that's OK; if not, PM me to change it. :D

Almost the entire pack had gathered by the time Bazi reached the starting point. Tuwawi was understandably absent and Razo had not yet made an appearance, but they were the only ones. The Beta trailed in after Fox, who paused at the edge of the gathering - a clear sign that this was Scimitar's show. Bazi smeared a good few licks on her leader's cheek as she joined the rest of the wolves, equal parts eager and nervous about the imminent start of their first real hunt. She and Njal had taken down large prey before, but it wasn't particularly hard to coordinate two wolves. Three was a stretch, and eight was nigh on impossible - at least for Bazi, whose hunting prowess was.. lacking. It wasn't a weakness she was particularly keen on sharing with the entire pack, and sitting out was not an option - Fox had already claimed the role of observer.

Bazi made a bee-line for Scimitar, nudging the shoulders of her pack-mates on the way there. Leading made him look particularly handsome, and the sight of him there, at the head of the pack, made her heart flutter girlishly. If Fox claimed him, however fond she was of the sprightly little leader, she would.. no, this wasn't the time for such things.

"Scimitar," she greeted quietly, moving to the hunter's unoccupied shoulder and beckoning his broad, severe face down to her level before he could kick off proceedings. "Keep me on the edges?" she whispered, silently begging that he would offer her an entirely non-strategic role in the upcoming hunt. Worry flickered on the glassy surface of her bright, blue eyes.
