Sea Lion Shores Within the swelter of the night

She held back her impatient sigh while the big guy prayed; she had dealt with this with her sister, hadn't she? Though she was always far more sympathetic to and understanding of @Mei , than any pink-skinned stranger. But it was over soon enough, and then they were picking their way down the shores. Animals like these were smart in their way, she thought- they knew the burden and risk the injured one posed, and he would not be welcomed back among his people. Huā didn't operate that way, but she'd damn sure consider it if she were prey like them. 

Vanity took the left. Huā moved to the right, giving the creature a wide distance, but moving in carefully. This could not all be a slow game, though- and when the time was right, Huā picked up speed and came upon the beast, aiming to tear her fangs into his side (and hoping the religious fanatic might join her on the right, for she was a small thing in comparison to the both of her partners.) But even if she was alone on this side, she knew Vanity would be handling the other, and the empress used what little knowledge of violence she had to sink her fangs relentlessly into flesh even as the beast swung and screeched.

Soon they had taken down their target, and split the meats fairly, and Huā reflected on how she might improve her hunting in the future despite her small size. It was all about technique, speed, picking the right target. She bid her companions farewell, taking back a good portion of the beast for her caches, glad she could provide for her family too.
