Testimony of Strength [M]

The doe was filling Sidra's gut fast. It wasn't often that she ate in the open like a true wolf but when she did she felt so powerful. Upon consumption of the pregnant doe she discovered that she was to bare one faun who was fully developed and would have probably been born a day or two from now. Unfortunate, but the small body would be consumed eventually, probably turned into smoked white tail for Kativa and Sidra to consume on their travels. Amethyst eyes glanced over at the male who was laying there in a pile of his own blood. He had died a quick and unnecessary death. If only he had decided to run instead of charge at Sidra. He would have escaped with his life and given the chance to prosper. Sidra sighed as she took the last few bits her stomach could bare.

It wasn't until she sat back and started to clean the blood from her dark pelt that she noticed she had a spectator. The sound of chirping filled her ears. Her eyes fell upon a familiar wolf. The young pitch black female she'd spent a night by the fire with. The young girl's eyes were filled with terror for what she'd just witnessed. Strange. Surely she knew what wolves were capable of. The ember female had a companion. A small fledgling who seemed to be full of angst. He was fluttering around and puffing his feathers as though he was challenging Sidra. Probably only trying to protect his girl. Sidra ignored the girl for a moment as she continued to clean the blood from her maw, legs, and paws. Although the blood covered pretty much her whole body. She would have to take a dip in a stream to get rid of it all. Once she had cleaned some of it she turned to face the frightened child. "What is that look for? Haven't you seen a wolf hunt before?"

Sidra turned to look over her killings proud of what she had accomplished. Kativa would be glad she wouldn't have to hunt for a while, they had enough meet here to last a week or two. The remainders of the doe, the buck, and the faun would all be cut up and either smoked or consumed later. Nothing here would go to waste. The buck's horns could be fashioned into a variety of items or sold to a trader. Sidra eyed the girl, hoping she would calm down. She wasn't sure what was driving the ember wolf to be so frightened. "I think I remember you." Although her name didn't come to mind immediately.
