Phantom Hollow [M]Baby, it's in your nature

NOTE TO SELF: ONE THREAD TO BE MADE PRIOR. hence lyric skip, lets say this is dated for tomorrow? MATURE topics discussed ahead.

 

After the incident which we cannot write about because ongoing thread, Takeshi flipped his path, headed back to the wilderness once more to evaluate his thoughts. Rain drizzled in a steady plip plop, wetting his fur as he made his way through grasses and ferns. Though he was not an empty-brained man, there was little self control in that creature, and even the things that he knew were risky were bound to happen again and again as long as he existed on this earth.

The rain was a nice break from the summer heat; it cooled the air some, at least enough that she didn't feel like she might melt while exploring the territories near the forest. Simmik traveled a little farther than she had originally intended, but she was lost deep in her thoughts and not really paying attention until the strange silence of the area pulled her back to the present. She wasn't a fan of this place and often avoided it, so it was strange that she had absentmindedly made her way into the creepy hollow. The place gave her the chills.

She had already turned to leave and head in the direction of the lake when she saw the stranger. She lifted her nose to inspect the air; his scent was familiar in a way she couldn't really place, and it bugged her enough that she moved closer to learn more. He was pale like she was, bigger like most males were, and a complete stranger. She paused near a tangle of decaying trees and moss and watched silently for a few moments before finally releasing a chuff, her expression holding the usual suspicion she gave to strangers. But she was interested to know more, too; maybe he could offer her some useful information.

Through the slight grey sheet he spotted the figure of that pale wolf, coming towards him with a chuff. A female, and with a similarly foresty scent to the child he had met before. She looked suspicious of him, but so far he sensed no real aggression from her- and so he shifted closer too. Perhaps she meant the chuff as a way to initiate conversation, but Takeshi had little interest in that at this point- was more inclined towards the chase, the adrenaline high of hunting helpless prey.

He didn't say anything in response to her greeting, which made her think he was kind of weird. It was obvious he knew she was there because he looked her way and then slowly moved closer in a way that made her scruff lift some; it was all strange, and she took a step back in response, confusion adding to the suspicion already present in her expression. She took only the one step back, though, unsure where this was going, but still willing to give him some more time to properly introduce himself before getting irritated with him. Maybe he just couldn't talk? Whatever it was, she couldn't shake the uneasy feeling spreading in her stomach in response to his gaze and despite her outward calm, her heart picked up speed in her chest.

Confused, but only a single step back. Even that was too trusting- and though Takeshi had begun to find dome sick pleasure in the game of seeing how naive these women might be, each time he became less concerned with the game and more focused on getting what he wanted. There was a flash of something like a charming smile on his face which vanished in an instant, and then he raced at her full-speed, intending to tackle; slam her skull to the ground beneath him if he could.

For a few moments, he smiled, and she thought maybe he was just weird or something. But then the smile was gone and was...sprinting towards her? Her eyes widened in surprise and she realized a second too late that he was gong to attack her. There was no time to run away now, he would definitely catch her. So she chose to meet him head on. 

She snarled and jumped forward to meet his weight as he reached her, but there was much more force behind his attack. He had gotten a running start and had the element of surprise to some extent, so she really had no hope of blocking his initial attack. All she could try to do was look for a way to gain the advantage with her next attack. 

She felt his paw on her face as they collided and she was pushed back. Her head slammed down to the ground at the same moment as her body, the force making everything go black for seconds. The first thing she felt was pain, like her skull had been cracked open, although she knew there was no way she would be awake if that was the case. She smelled her own blood next as is it began to gush from the fresh wound on the side of her head. And then she felt his weight holding her to the ground. She squirmed weakly beneath him, trying to stand but too dizzy and out of it to get her feet under her. He was bigger and stronger, which would have made the fight difficult without her injury. Despite the pain and dizziness and blood stinging her eyes, she tried to push up from the ground again, releasing a furious snarl for all the good it would do.

She was a fighter, certainly, and it was much different than Liliana. It took extra energy to hold her down, but (un)luckily the injury to her head had already weakened her. She tried to push up from the ground, snarling, but he shoved his muzzle downward, grabbing her nape to try and limit her movement further. From there he'd do what he'd been planning to.

Once it was over, the pale beast didn't stick around. He'd be racing away rather quickly, fleeing the scene of his evils, leaving the girl behind him.
