She knew no fear even as he grabbed onto her and pulled her close, his gleaming teeth less than an inch from her face. As a matter of fact, the puppy thrust her little snout straight into his jaws, eagerly trying to seize the bone straight out of his mouth to reclaim it.

She'd just closed her own teeth around one end and begun to pull back when Meerkat heard voices. The bone slipped from her mouth and her head popped up to see Towhee and Figment striding toward them. The pup began to wriggle, then froze in hesitation. Which was more important: getting the bone from Bronco or going over to greet her family members?

Deciding they could help her wrest her prize from Bronco, Meerkat used one older brother as a springboard even as she made a beeline toward the other. She practically crashed into his forelegs, butt dropping and tail wiggling as she hopped up to lick first at Fig's chin, then Towhee's.

Meerkat fully intended to resume her game with Bronco, yet Towhee totally sidetracked her by asking, -"You hungry?"- She was always hungry, so she bobbed her head eagerly and bounded after Figment as he led her off toward a cache.

That left the Regent alone with Bronco. -"You're a great big brother, you know that?"- Towhee remarked before settling down to catch some rest after their long border patrol.

I figure that's a wrap, let's have another Bronco x Meerkat thread soon!
