Word Count :: 237 Decided to post here again since I can now. xD
It seemed like a matter of milliseconds from when he roped the elk and it was down, suddenly, a crack echoing harshly through the air as well as the cow’s hoarse scream of pain. Dixie and Duke had the rope, the stallion leaning away with excitement as they went through the old routines, Wayne tentatively loosening the death grip on his own lasso as he realized there was little more he could do. He turned his head to see the monstrous shape of Lorenzo barreling toward the animal, knocking into it and biting deep into the neck.
With one more jarring motion and crack, the hunt was done. The cowboy found himself panting though he had not done nearly as much work as the other young man, and he quickly stepped forward to retrieve his rope, untangling Dixie’s as well so that she could reel it in. He flashed her a small smile then looked the small stallion over in amusement, knowing the horse had gotten a kick out of this.
“Are you okay?” the Labrador man asked Lorenzo, glancing at the wound the elk had given him. It looked like a small one, but head wounds were always deceptive, and there could be serious damage even if they couldn’t see it. He frowned as he tried to gauge whether Enzo’s eyes were focused, and then he glanced down at the once magnificent animal under his paws.
