Hopefully it's cool I wrote all this; I didn't know what else to do. xD +375


Her ears flicked at mention of shooting birds with a sling, remembering the few times she’d seen a grouse or other creature brought down from the sky with a well-aimed arrow of Ezekiel’s. It was almost like magic to the skinny luperci, as if she still lived confined to four legs and couldn’t even dream of holding such a weapon in her paws. Perhaps she was being stubborn, but she didn’t think about that either. She was proud of working in her original shape, arrogant even, but that suited her just fine.

The russet coyote looked good on four legs, rather adorable even with his huge ears and his lighter and darker markings more distinct. She grinned across and up at him, not really caring for the size difference; she was used to being small. With most of the clan consisting of hybrids, it was to be expected that many would tower over her. In fact, she wasn’t sure if there was anyone smaller than her—except Zana.

She trotted after him into the night-cool grass, her ears constantly twitching and adjusting for new sounds as her senses remained on alert for some of the grazing hares. Even when she caught a whiff of scent, she allowed the boy to lead and trailed closely after him. He finally found something tangible and whispered to draw her attention to it; she nodded silently and began to stalk through the grass.

“Get down here,” Vesper ordered quietly. She patted the earth in a darkened area, where vegetation shadowed the already black night. She began to skulk around through the undergrowth, pausing when her streamlined body rustled a leaf, watching the hares respond with swiveling ears and erect bodies until they settled back down to eat. She prowled around in a crescent shape so the creatures were between her and Nate.

It only took a second for one individual to scent her from the way the wind was blowing. She burst out of hiding at that moment, snapping jaws sending hares darting in different directions, but one at least made a beeline for where Nathaniel was hopefully waiting. She let out a yap to alert him, running hard on her prey’s heels to chase it into his jaws.
