The slow movement of the lake coupled with the sound of the ground being disturbed underfoot honed her focus. She was aware of her companion moving past her on his own pursuit of a meal, but her eyes stayed centered on her own reflection in the water and what lay beneath it. Various fish swam by here and there that were either too small or too far from the shore.
Her companion rustled in the background before giving up his previous efforts and approached the water's edge. An ideal catch was swimming their way and she lowered her stance ready to pounce. The titan had the first go, plunging his jaws into the water untimely missing his assumed mark. In the midst of his words, Cordelia lunged into the water missing his comment. His attempt had sent the fish rushing towards her and with great precision, she lunged into the water sinking her jaws into the flesh of the fish, her front paws submerged in water.
A sudden bit of shock rushed through her body as she entered the water, and a sharp pain emanated from her paws and wrists. That is a lot colder then I thought it would be, she thought to herself and quickly pulled herself out of the water, grasping hard with her fangs. The fish would eventually cease its movement but until Cordelia took a few moments to raise one paw after the other and shake off the water, hoping that it would result in the pain and numbing of the water to leave her extremities.
But as she lifted her left paw she noticed the color red staining her white coat. She had sustained a cut on her ankle, unnoticed earlier by the numbing of the cold water. Now deceased she dropped her catch onto the ground and further inspected her injury. "It seems I may have caught the sharp end of a rock or something of the sort. I imagine it should be fine though" she expressed, this having been one of the most minor of injuries she had sustained whilst in the wilds. "Do you suppose the size of this fish will be sufficient for you pack?" she asked diverting the topic.
