Shadewood all at once

Thanks for joining!

The bone was stubborn, remaining stuck fast as he tugged at it. He paused and growled in frustration, before leaning back and digging his forepaws into the ground, still attached to the carrion by his jaws. With one more violent pull, it finally came loose with a sickening snap and Redshank stumbled back slightly. He grinned, readjusting the prize he now held within his teeth.

The boy almost made to trot away to enjoy it in peace but the sudden rustling of dry leaves underfoot caught his attention. He tested the air, smelling another of his kind. He scanned the area but did not spot the crouching girl, and so released a warning snarl, moving back to the carcass protectively. Like hell he'd share with some stranger.
