PACK HUNT: Thanks for Taking the Bait

Impromptu Pack Hunt after the pack failed in taking down a moose this week. No worries. @Tonravik's real craving is for bison and a herd just moved in around the OS borders that loosely extend in the direction of Chimera Fields.

Feel free to have your character hop in at any time. I'd like to keep this thread moving fairly quickly. I'll set the rounds to be 5 days (respond on or before July 12) or 3 characters in addition to Iqniq, whichever comes first (if there are 3 already, you are still welcome to hop in). No post order, but please only post once per round. A post from Iqniq signals a new round.

They'd failed in taking down a moose this week. He wasn't sure if that was due in large part to their influx in new wolves who were having trouble working together, or if luck was simply working against them. Either way, the alpha was not content in their failure. His mate was pregnant. His mate was hungry. His mate was craving bison. Something rich and fat and filling. His recent patrols around their borders let him know something of that description was moving in from the northwest. They would find them and they would bring something back to satisfy all their cravings.

He howled from the top of the ridge, signaling for his pack mates to rally. They would need a team for this one. Felling a bison was no easy task and they'd have to work long and hard to wear one out. Staring towards the horizon, he caught sight of a dark mass moving across the kelly green fields. No doubt, that was the herd they were looking for. He lingered for a moment longer, watching from a distance before he descended the ridge and headed in the direction of the fields.

His gait was slow, but calculated. If any wolf were to join him in this endeavor, he wanted them to fall into line before they reached the scene. They'd need to function as one mind for this and moving together would set the pace. Each wolf would know their role based on where they fell in line. Some would be required to distract the herd. Others would need to isolate their mark. First? First they had to find that mark, agree upon it, and work from there. Surely they'd learned from their earlier mistakes. This bison would be theirs.
