Jaden pulled back his bowstring slowly and watched for any movement in his target, any sign that the moose and her young might be aware of the archer’s presence. Both calves and mother continued to eat despite the deadly arrow trained on them. But there was much more than just the Alpha’s sharp arrow set and ready to fly forth. He knew his pack lay in wait for the signal to attack. He could smell them. They were no doubt concealed too and probably even closer than he was.

The members of Sangi’lak had awoken early that morning to find themselves still surrounded by strange land. For Jaden it had been an odd feeling to open his eyes and not be in his den, to not be basking in the pleasant scents of wet rock, dry volcanic sand, and his lovely fellow leader. Even the undeniable stench of little Sira had begun pushing into familiarity. The bitter, muddy smell of earth and lively scent of cooled nature were almost a shock to the sense compared to the tang of Ton’Immerk, of home.

But, the land quickly began to warm with the rising sun. It was only an hour or two after first light when the temperature began to rise above comfortable for the thick furred Alaskan. No doubt animals and canines blessed with shorter coats like Sangi’lak’s resident jackal were perfectly comfortable but Jaden was panting considerably to help cool his body as it heated from constant running. Being stuck on two legs had perks but traveling wasn’t one of them. He now fully respected just how much work two extra paws in motion did. It would be nice to finally fall into his quadruped form again but he had decided to only try shifting after the pack finally took down their prey on this hunt. Doing so any sooner would be useless at his point because he would have to take the time to switch back before he could arm his bow.

The pack stayed together before finding the scent of prey. They all had to move at a steady jog while searching in order for their two legged alpha to keep up. But once that scent was found, the pack broke into a run. A predetermined plan then fell into place they had all formulated before setting out. The pack would find their chosen quarry and get into position for an ambush while waiting for Jaden to catch up. By the time he found them, the others should have had ample time and get ready so that he could fire his arrows at the prey and signal their attack.

So now they found themselves here right on the edge of their climax. It had only taken the Issum a minute or two to maneuver into position. He kept his eyes glued to the prey and watched to make sure they took no notice of the quiet and low moving silhouette. He even silently stepped over a concealed body unaware of whether he or she had taken notice of their alpha for his thoughts were so concentrated. The perfect vantage point came to him and he drew his bow in the shadow of a large tree. He could feel the beat of his heart hammering through his palm and into the bow. He struggled to slow his breathing for a steady shot. The tension in the air was tangible as his sights found one of the younger moose. Only the mother and her two developing youngsters seemed oblivious to the death that was about to settle upon them.
