The feline could hear the canine before he could smell him - although canines had superior senses of smell, Element the cat had the upper hand when it came to sound. Noise funneling in to his enormous, cupped ears, he could easily hear every sniffle, step, and movement that was made by the wolf, even when it wasn't within his line of sight. He remained in his position, however, until the wolf either presented a threat or went away - he gave off the air of not knowing where the wolf was, or even that it was there in the first place.
He heard the wolf surround the area with his loud steps and sniffing - although a canine might not have been able to hear the sounds as clearly, Element could hear them as clear as day, marking the wolf's movements until it came into a circle. He could suddenly see the predator in the corner of his eye; surreptitiously, he turned his head a degree towards the wolf, finally able to see him fully.
He brought himself to his full height then, standing tall among the grass - although to the wolf, he was sure, it was no impressive feat. Aloof eyes scanned the wolf, curiousity piquing at the ebony feline's mind; "What are you searching for?" he asked offhandedly, keeping the mask of offhandedness and uncaring, but still having curiousity underneath the guise.
