Phoenix Maplewood Graced with a new life

Hope burned in her chest as Grace rose herself up slowly, glad that she alpha was at least giving her a chance. She flexed her leg back, sore from her rough slam onto the ground, before she stalked forward with her jaws parted slightly. When at last she caught scent of prey, she'd come to a pond. Catching sight of brown, hobbling creatures with broad, flat tails, the red and black she-wolf crouched; she tucked her leg as close to her body as she could as she stalked on three legs in a wide circle to get around it as well as staying downwind, using whatever she could as cover till she was only a few yards from the busy animal. Even with her leg bouncing slightly, Grace took off fairly quickly, launching herself at the beaver and snapping it up by the neck before it got far. As the other animals bolted from her, calling an alarm, the little wolf stalked on all fours over to the alpha, dropping the beaver and looking up at Saena with pleasure gleaming in her golden eyes. She panted lightly, but sat heavily on her right haunch to let her leg stretch out almost normally. "If you want, I can find something else." She hoped Saena approved, a slight anxiety fluttering in her belly.
