Phoenix Maplewood can't touch this

Their close proximity was easy to navigate for the darker of the two, the confines of the badger's den dark and quiet. But the smells were strong, and fresh, and she was almost completely positive that their little venture would not be in vain. With the sounds that alerted both females, Nochtli's suspicions of the badger's presence became solid things; Cita would dine on the fiesty creature tonight, she'd make sure of it.

With a brief nudge to Citali's shoulder to signify that she was moving, the now practically invisible shadow slunk forward, investigating the tunnels that made up the den. She wanted to figure out a way to come at the badger from behind for Cita, for she would not put her in harm's way. Besides, Nochtli was the quicker of the two and could dodge a bit more. Once she had finished scouting, she returned in similar silence, making a gesture in the barely lit den for her to take the tunnel she'd just come from.

Going the other, unexplored way, the female wraith got into position, lingering back until Citali had been given enough time to settle in and make the first move, leading their surprise attack.
