Rising Sun Valley don't wait for me

;D And sorry for the wait! Last post to wrap this up!

While the wolf wasn't as bulky as some, he was still considerably larger that Reaper, and the mutt knew his chances of surviving the encounter were slim if he engaged the male. His jaws clicked together as he snapped at the other's face, missing it by inches. His shoulder seared with pain, fuelling his desire to get out of the situation even further. A hot, acidic scent rose into the air then, causing the dog's gaze to return to the boy for a moment.

The white pup had struggled to his feet and, with a savage cry from his hungry attacker, fled into the night. Snarling, Reaper tried to knock the wolf away from him, who quickly retaliated with a snap at his chest. Stumbling backwards, the dog gave one last growl before turning and tearing off after the young wolf. It was clear he had all but disappeared, though, Malachi had given him time to escape. Reaper's angry cries echoed into the night as he blindly ran into the forest after the quickly fading scent of his would-be meal.
