White Noise

the ebonite hunter leapt through a hold in the fence with much ease his sleek coat dark coat made him stand out but he quickly lowered his massive chassis into the weeds while he waited for Sequioa, Bane, and Skip. Bane and Skip would learn the hard way to hunt it seemed he knew how aggrisive these cattle were he had been grouded by one some time ago and thinking of it made his shoulder hurt again. Yellow tinted eyes peered out searching for calves or sick cos to bring down mentally taking note of how many bulls there were.

Bane

Bane leapt the fence easily, his lesser weight being easier to fling over the bars. His stomach fur brushed the top of the fence, leaving a little of the still-wet mud he had used to disguise his scent on the topmost rung. Lowering his gray bod quietly into the deep reeds, he stalked silently up beside White Noise, looking about as he did. His birth mother had given him some training, and he knew at least to look for weapons the cows possessed. Hmm... horns might be a bad thing... and hooves.

A few months ago Bane would never have dreamed of fighting these creatures, but he had grown tall and strong, with hardly a bit of extra fat on him. He was a bit slim, but fast. As long as he could see the cows, he would be able to keep out of their way.

Keeping his eyes on the pasture, he waited for their hunting party.

Skip

Skip came next, springing herself over the fence in one swift motion. Her eyes glistened as the took in the sight of the bovines. She had certainly seen cattle before, but never dared take one on. In fact, the idea of trying to kill one never crossed her mind until it was mentioned earlier at the Soras.

Brimming with excitement, the husky could hardly contain herself from rushing into the herd and attacking. It was her submission to authority that kept her desires in check right now. Skip would wait for White Noise's call before doing anything.

Sequioa

The odd colored hybrid moved silently through the grass. She leaped over the fence with ease but as soon as her paws hit the ground her body did as well. She slunk forth carefully watching the massive beast for she had not been to the pasture in some time. These cows looked different from the ones before but they would all kill the same. She moved towards Noise and said softly "Sasha is sick. I will take food to her when we bring one of these things down." She watched the cows silently assessing all of them with a keen eye. She was careful in her search for she needed food for the pack.

White Noise

with all arriving he looked to Bane approving of the mud that covered his scent. Seemed the pup was smart.

|Bane since this is your frist time I'm gonna let you pick the cow we go after choose well|

Bane

Gray yearling nodded silently, keeping his bod low to the ground as he eyed the cows, looking for a small or weak one to aim for.

*Cattle*

The cattle seemed very spooked, but not because of these predators here. Another group of hunters, further along down the pasture, were attacking right now. While the nearest bunch of cattle all seemed healthy, there was one in particular who was not paying attention to the surroundings. He was an adolescent, and not quite the size of his adult conterparts yets. Switching his tail a bit, the creature drifted dangerous close to the lurking predators while snuffing through the snow to get at the frozen greens below.

Sequioa

Her body itched to move closer to the adolescent. Her eyes watched him hungrily and her body was poised to spring for the stupid young bull. Wait...Wait....Wait She kept having to tell herself this as she glanced at Bane then back to the cow. Hurry up she thought. She wanted to bring it down now.

Mesa

The peregrine falcon had gotten word that the war was on now. The Eskers had turned into a battle ground, with fighters from both sides pouring in. Mesa landed herself on one of the fence posts and looked to White Noise. "It has started. War at the Eskers. Everyone is showing up." The falcon's sharp eyes turned to Skip next, and seemed to glimmer with malice and expectations. It was time for this simple fae to say goodnight, forever.

Sequoia

Not what she wanted to hear but it was something for the blood thirsty fae. She leaped suddenly for Skip her fangs flashing. It gave away their position but she was going to go to the fight whether Noise liked it or not. Aaka and the Lurkers were her family. She didnt know Noise very well. Even though she liked him well enough she was cautious. Skip would have no chance against the fae for her sheer size was enough to crush the husky wolf.

Skip

The husky mix was looking excitedly to the cattle when Mesa landed. Her eyes furrowed in confusion, having no clue who this bird was. "What in the world..." She was transfixed by the look Mesa was giving her, and pinned her ears back in sudden fear. But having put her full trust in those around her, the true horror of things didn't dawn on her until it was far, far too late.

Hardly did she have time to react to Sequioa's sudden and agressive change when the fae hit her. The husky mix turned with a surprised yelp as the side of her neck was laid open by the other's fangs. She fell heavily to her side, and scrambled to get up. "Oh, help me! White Noise!" She cried out pitifully, but there was little help for her, and she didn't even think to fight back. A simple throat-hold would be easy to kill her with.

Sequioa

As much as she wanted the fae to suffer Sequioa grabbed for the faes throat. She needed to go. She couldnt stay here much longer. She felt the others blood stain her ivories and enjoyed the taste but in her mind she was saying repeatedly DIE DIE DIE She had to go....

Skip

Skip flinched and tried to stand, but it all happened so fast. Her neck was fatally wounded. She kicked at the ground in feeble little movements, but the life was already leaving her. "Failed...." She whispered coarsly in her last breath. Then the husky mix lay still in death.

Sequioa

She looked to White Noise and said "Im heading to the eskers. If you want to try and bring that thing down go ahead." She took off suddenly and with ease the fae leaped over the fence and was running her long legs carring her far and to the eskers.

Bane

The instant that Sequoia gave away there position, Bane shot for the one cow that hadn't been paying attention, cursing silently to himself. Blasted faes can't keep their mouths shut

Dashing at an almost impossible speed, he used his momentum to carry himself up under the cow, leaping for the jugular, doing a small bit of gymnastics to hook his hinds up over the head of the cow. He had his mother's agility and performed this little trick without too much difficulty, only a small grunt letting the observer know how much it had cost him.

From this angle, the cow could still throw him if Bane missed his mark, but a throw was something he would survive, as opposed to being trampled or gored. Hoping that he had gotten his target by sheer surprise, he began to slash at anything and everything under his fangs, grabbing and shredding to the side to do damage, growling his fury.

White Noise

Noise watched as the fea ttack Skip and though his loyality did not ly with Skip he hated to see the friendly huntress go down As Bane shot for the cow A loud and sharp bark was sent for him they were needed elsewhere and he needed Bane to understand.

|Bane come now over the fence forget the cow for now. I will brin you back here but I must explain something to you|

Bane

Bane looked up at White Noise's command, loathe to leave the kill. But he knew where his loyalties lay, and so he released the cow and used powerful hinds to launch himself clear, landing solidly. Building up speed, he hopped the fence with ease, panting just a tad for the effort. Yes sir?

White Noise

|okay son. Fresca and the others in my land or not my pack. they are enimes. I am Shadow Lurker they seek to destroy us. One has already lost her life. Skip is dead thanks to Sequia she is an allie. I could not tell you this till now Hybras would not allow you to get draged in. But now I need to you help me convence Fresca I am still with her not the traitor.|

His yellow tinted eyes looked level with the fledgling he had grown very fond of the hunter.

Bane

Bane nodded, for he saw everything and remembered it all. I thought that the meeting back at pack were a little... tense. That explains it. Very well. What do you wish me to do to help you with this... Fresca? He met Noise's gaze without flinching, his own silver eyes carefully watching, noticing everything.

White Noise

|right now, son I need you to good to teh Woodland Farm find the hurt Aaka and see what she needs. I have to play this indicent with Skip off to male Fresca think we are still her allies. Your a Shadow Lurker now son and you deserve it becareful tell Aaka I sent you she should trust you then. Okay.|

He was impressed the pup and now tought of the tyke as his equal a heir so to say since Noise didn't have any childern.

Bane

Bane nodded deeply and wasted no time, heading out to do as his father ordered.
