Swiftcurrent Creek A hunter beats beneath my breast

Ruby blood smeared Tuwawi's clean bib as it oozed from the punctures in the hind's rounded trunk. No amount of struggle tempted the wolf to release her hold, and quickly their target became fatigued. Its movements turned drunkenly uncoordinated as white froth formed around its hanging tongue. Knowledge of a fast approaching death burdened the animal's unarmed body, and soon she waited for the dark beast to release her from this mortal coil.

With one well-aimed strike, Jace ensnared the hind's throat in his jaws, puncturing the jugular and crushing the trachea. The deer buckled in pain and fell to the ground, though it would be a few moments longer before life left the animal completely. its breath waned, eyes rolling and turning vapid, and finally its body moved no more. Once a life... now only meat to feed Earth's other creatures.

Tuwawi removed herself from the doe's trunk, but wasted no time placing herself over where the richest pieces would be. Her posture was stiff, keen on claiming the first bite for herself, however Jace easily deferred and so no squabble over food was to pass. Hungry teeth cut into the cavity, and sought out the favorite organs first, such as the liver, kidney and heart, before moving onto tender muscle. She then eyed her young hunting party briefly, to let him know he could join the feast. The fawn was left by the wayside... it would be a good, compact, piece to bury in a cache.
