Redhawk Caldera [m] Kamikaze

Elwood was swiftly pushed aside by the fury of both Finley and Fox as they went after the unfamiliar black wolf. His blow had managed to push her away only momentarily, and then when it became clear that there would be no stopping the Alpha and Beta females, he retreated. He watched pensively, licking at his lips nervously as his hackles stood on end and his tail swished uneasily. One ear flicked back at the commotion behind him and he briefly looked to Sebastian and Tiger, who were tending to Wildfire.

And then, Peregrine swept into the middle of the battlefield. Elwood watched with wide eyes as the swarthy male ended the fight with his fangs, severing the wolf's head from her body in one fluid motion. By this point, Finley, too, had separated herself from the action and had pressed herself against his side. He leaned into her, yellow eyes never leaving the scene in front of him as Fox continued to tear at what was now just a corpse.

In the moments following the scuffle, he would gain some clarity and learn that the deceased had once been Peregrine's daughter, Osprey Jr. He had never met her before and knew very little of her relationship with her father, but there was a knot in his stomach nonetheless as Peregrine tried to pull Fox away from Junior's body.

Once the little family had been ushered away to safety, Elwood exchanged a long look with Finley and turned to go, leaving the mangled corpse behind.
