Thanks for the super speedy response! And here is one for you! Big Grin (415)


As Hybrid pulled out muscles and sinewy tendons, he saw the other coyote begin to do the same. They were silent aside from the sounds of ripping and tearing that defined their eating. To eat, one must devour; there was no other way around this simple truth. Hybrid did not simply feast upon this delicious meal, but tear it apart to gain his fill. He finished at about the same time the other coyote did. He was amused to see that they had eaten about the same amount and taken their fill, choosing from a few tasty organs. He figured he did not need to eat all of them and waste the nutrition solely on himself and was content to share them with the other coyotes of Inferni. Although he and Aeron could have simply eaten what they could and let it rot, Hybrid knew this was not how a clanmember behaved and therefore, left some for the other members of Inferni.

He watched as the coyote began packing away some of the meat. It was strange to see her do this, since he so rarely did anything in his Optime form. He wasn’t sure when she had shifted, and felt odd sitting there still in his Secui form. He could not handle a knife in this form, but he doubted she had two. Nonetheless, he understood what she was doing. He could assist as well by carrying some meat back to Gabriel and the others. He supposed it would be best to howl for some others to come and finish what they could not carry.

With this in mind, he began the process of shifting in to his Optime form. He felt his bones pry themselves apart, move, and then click into new positions. Some lengthened and some grew shorter. After a few minutes, he was fully shifted, but had an odd twinge in his shoulder. He did not use this form often, so it took him some time to do so.

Once he was done, he was surprised to hear the coyote speak. However, he was even more surprised to find himself agreeing with her.

“Yes,” he stated, almost flatly. He never spoke so kindly to females.

“We bring death to other creatures. It is a very beautiful thing.” He paused and then grinned wickedly. “Have you murdered many wolves in your day? Kaena and I killed one and put its skull on the borders. Perhaps we should kill again. You and I.”
