Adrenaline pumped through the agouti male's veins as they moved towards their prey. As they had wanted, the doe panicked and moved away from the herd. It wasnt far enough away to be an easy kill, that was for sure. But as they raced after it, it twisted and turned away from the herd. Arye was a white blue on the right side of the deer while Saul was a timber blur on the left. For a moment he considered going for the hamstrings and allowing the white female to surge forward and perform the killing bite. Trees blurred past them as they began to drive the deer well away from the herd. The herd, for its part, thundered through Phoenix Valley, th occasional bleat floating towards them as the animals made their way away from the danger. And they were away from the danger- their herd sister on the other hand was not. Green eyes saw her surge forward to snap at its flank, marking the place where she would bite if she would. Catching her eye, Saul quickly conveyed that she should go for the hamstring while he leapt forward to aim for her throat. Hoping the white female would bite strong and hang on, the male turned his head to the front again.
Powerful muscles rippled beneath his pelt as he surged forward. No longer intent on driving the deer anywhere, Saul pushed all of his energy into getting a lead on the deer. With Arye on its heels, the whites of the does eyes were clear as panic set in, terror coming quickly afterwards. He passed the doe's body in a bounding leap, another two leaps bringing him a few feet ahead of the deer. Immediately he turned and without hesitating he launched his body back towards the doe. Claws connected with the does shoulders, a paw either side of the deers neck as his head turned to the right. His bottom jaw hit the deer's skin first, piercing the skin as his top jaw clamped down. This was Arye's time to move, to latch onto the doe's hamstring and bring her down from the back. Blood filled the males mouth as the seconds slowed and he waited for the jolt as the white female clamped onto their prey.
