Great Bear Wilderness Fading Echos

Cara grasped at the doe first, and Mordecai moved swiftly to close the gap between himself and them. He saw Kaname's dark form gain on the wounded, latching on as Cara tore skin from muscle and bone. By then that gap between them all had closed, and like Kaname he lunged for the open, bleeding side of the doe.

His teeth made purchase, and Mordecai hung on for all he was worth. The doe faltered a bit but still tried to shake off the two males, baying at the herd who now moved to regroup and abandon her. He felt a hoof skim past part of him as her pace slowed, and the thrashing increased. Purely for the agitation, Mordecai jerked himself, tearing at the tender flesh and hopefully starting her descent towards the ground. There he hoped Cara would be on the receiving end, and would solidify the kill.
