Blacktail Deer Plateau PACK HUNT: Prancer was Good Eatin'

Dante was far too focused on the hunt to notice anything that wasn't in the immediate vicinity of the doe. Just as he was going in to snap at the haunch, the doe kicked out wildly, striking Saena who had also thrown herself at the quarry. Seeing her go down, the Alpha male didn't even think before placing himself between the thrashing animal and his packmate. As a result he took a hefty kick to the shoulder, but luckily the area was solid and it did little but hurt (like hell). He could not turn to check on Saena without turning his back and letting the hunt go to shit, so instead he let out a low snarl, lunging and ducking around the kicks to latch onto the shoulder.

With Finn on the doe's rear and Dante on the front, he gave a mighty heave, attempting to get the doe away from the girl, whose status was unknown, and trying to overbalance her to hold her here. He felt his teeth tearing in deep and knew that at least their prey would not be going anywhere soon... They'd grounded her. Either they'd kill her slowly by tearing her apart or someone available could take the merciful killing bite.
