Vatoni, Kiolana, Kouji

Slowly the beta female of Silver Glades TT entered the pasture with her two pups, Kouji and Kiolana. They crouched down wind, hidden by the tall grass. Vatoni waited for her other two pups, Umay and Kanan to arive, as well as Aaka and Thunder Storm.

Aaka

Aaka came and waited by Vatoni. She set down Thunder Storm and said quietly so the sheep wouldnt hear "stay here and be as quiet as possible." She then turned towards the sheep and waited

Kanan & Umay

Kanan stood anxiously beside his mom while eyeing the sheep with eager eyes. His muscels were nearly quivering as he tried to hold himself still and not dash out after the fluffy white creatures.

Umay was much more relaxed but still very excited as she looked at the sheep. She glanced up at her mother and Aaka often, seeing how they acted and waiting for any signal or advice from either.

Vatoni*Kiolana*Kouji*

Vatoni glanced at her pups and smiled, she then whispered, so that the Sheep couldn't here, "when we attack, you either want to go for there throat where vital life veins are, there shoulder when vital veins are as well, or you can grab one of the legs and hold it still while another gets to the neck or shoulder." She paused and looked at the sheep then back to them, "Spread out, stay down wind and pick one out of the flock that will be your target." After she said that she glanced over at Aaka, not for her aproval though. With a silent nod she started towards the sheep, keeping down wind like she had said.

Kouji listened intently to his mother and nodded, fallowing beside her..

Kiolana nodded and moved a little ways to the left, spreading out like her mom had said. She stayed down wind and watched the sheep, trying to find one that she wanted to take down.

Aaka*Thunder Storm

Aaka nodded and turned to Thunder Storm. "Do me a favor Storm. If the sheep come your way get out of the way. If a collie come bark to warn us." Aaka doubted that any collies would come but she wanted the pup to feel useful. Aaka knew that her family hadnt ever let her feel that way.

Storm got excited when Vatoni began giving ordders but when Aaka told her to stay it killed the happiness. Although when she heard she had a job to do she turned about and faced in all directions to see if anyone was coming....

*Sheep*

The sheep were already in a panic from the many wolf attacks; some of which were going on right now in different parts of the pasture. The many sheep had clustered into different flocks as other wolves had gone through their ranks, so it was a bit easier to spot individual ones and target them out from the herd. All seemed to be rather healthy; but then, they were still just as easy to take down.

Aaka*Thunder Storm

"Vatoni I am not going to help with a sheep....I will bring one down on my own for me and Thunder Storm. But if one of the pups would like to help me that is fine." Aaka was respecting that Vatoni was higher in rank than her. For once. Oh well. She may have a new pack soon. With her friends fighting the sedge creek pack.....but who knew the outcome of that now?

Vatoni, Kiolana, Kouji

Vatoni nodded, "fine" she said. She didn't need any help taking down one of the sheep so she whispered to her children, "Kouji, you and Kanan team up, Umay, Lana, same goes for you two" with that she slunked towards the sheep, finally picking one out of the flock. Once she was close enough she lunged for the animal's neck, if she got a hold of it she bit down hard.

Kouji nodded and slunk over to his brother, "come on, let's get that one" he whispered under his breath, nodding in the direction of one of the sheep.

Kiolana crouched next to Umay, "which one do you want to attack, Umay?"

Aaka*Thunder Storm

Aaka leaped at her nearest target. She had always excelled in hunting. She bit down hard on what ever she had

Thunder Storm looked with dismay. She had nothing to do. There was no humans or others coming. She wanted to help Aaka.

Kanan & Umay

Umay looked around, scanning the flock. "How about that one?" she replied, spotting a sheep on the outter flanks of the flock. She began to run towards it then tried to leap up at its side and sink her fangs in. She hoped her weight was enough to slow it down or perhaps even bring it down. It would be easier for Kiolana to attack it then for a kill.

Kanan nodded, "Looks good to me. You can go ahead and attack it, I'll be over in a sec'." Kanan replied before bounding over to Thunder Storm. While Aaka and Vatoni were busy with their sheep, he spoke quickly to the youngster. "Why don't you come help my brother and me? When we get the sheep down you can help us kill it. Besides, I don't see any dogs around, and the sheep aren't dangerous." Little did he know that the sheep could be dangerous, if they decided to stampede. But he didn't think about that. Now he turned back to his brother and charged the targeted sheep. He tried to bite one of the hind legs to slow it down.

Kiolana and Kouji

Kouji nodded, to busy to think about what Kanan was doing. He bounded for the sheep, snapping at it's neck.

Kiolana ran after her sister and lunged for the sheep's neck as well, trying to get a good hold on it.

*Sheep*

Aaka's sheep veered to the side at the last moment, but not quick enough to escape the wolf's jaws. His shoulder was caught by the wolf and the bone there was fractured as the emmense force was applied to it. The sheep tried to get away by lunging forward and trying to shake free of the wolf.

Vatoni's sheep wasn't so quick as the other. Her neck was caught by the beta's fangs. With over a thousands pounds of pressure crushing against the neck, the windpipe was caved in and two vital veins were torn. It didn't take long before the sheep was dead.

The sheep the two younger faes had targeted also couldn't escape. Umay's weight made the sheep stagger, then collapse to its knees. Kiolana got it by the throat just before it would have staggered up again. Her teeth tore deep into the flesh, but it would take more time and energy before she was able to kill this sheep.

Kouji caught the sheep by the side of the neck, making it stumble and then fall. But quickly the creature was up again and dragging the young wolf as it tried to get with its flock. He didn't have a hold over anything vital yet.

Aaka*Thunder Storm

Aaka hung on and bit harder. She wasnt going to let the sheep get away. She slashed at it with her claws. It wouldnt do much damage....but it might slow it down. She postitioned herself trying to aim her paws at his face and maybe hit its face.

Vatoni, Kiolana and Kouji

After she had killed the sheep, Vatoni saw her son being dragged by the sheep. Running after it she lunged for it's shoulder, trying to slow it so that Kouji could get a better grip on it's neck.

Kouji accepted his mother's help, though, he really didn't want her to help him, it was embarresing to have you mom help you. He dug his teeth in deeper and shook his head.

Kiolana held the animal by the neck and shook her head savagly, digging her ivories into the sheep deeper and deeper.

*Sheep*

Aaka's sheep fell suddenly as the leg with the wounded shoulder was bitten into deeper. She had managed to severe a vital nerve there, causing partial paralysis in the limb. The sheep shook its head when the paws scracted there. Bleating out in terror, he tried to stand but couldn't. Now it would be easy for the wolf to get a grip on his throat or anywhere else.

The sheep that the beta and her son went after had faltered and fell to its knees when Vatoni grabbed it. After a few minutes of stuggle, Kouji finally dug in deep enough to strike the life vein. Blood flowed quickly from the sheep's torn neck and through the young wolf's clentched jaws. It wasn't long before the sheep was dead.

The last sheep struggled more furiously, but with no better outcome than it's recently slain fellow. After a desperate struggle, its vitals were torn fatally. Moments later, the sheep relaxed in death.

Vatoni, Kiolana and Kouji

Vatoni let go of the dead sheep as soon as she felt it go limp in her jaws. Smileing at her son she stood back and looked for Kanan, where was he?

Kouji let the animal go, blood covering his maw. He grinned, "thanks mom, but I didn't need help" he said.

Vatoni smiled and nodded, still looking for Kanan.

Kiolana dropped the dead sheep's neck and smiled at Umay, "we did it!"

Aaka*Thunder Storm

Aaka let go quickly and went for the sheeps throat. She then gazed over at Thunder. "Come. Help me with this sheep. I could use some help" Aaka smiled. She wanted the pup to feel more than worth while

*Sheep*

There was little hope for the doomed creature. Aaka's grip on the throat was sufficient in killing the sheep.

The other by now had crowded into a smothering flock some distance from the attacking wolves.

Umay

She grinned, "Yep, we're hunters now! Good job, Lana." she praised with her tail waving a bit. Then she looked around, seeing that Kouji had brought down a sheep as well. Umay barked a congratulations to him before looking around to find her other brother. "Now where did Kanan go?"

Aaka*Thunder Storm

Aaka didnt truly care about the others. She started to eat a little of the sheep. She wasnt truly hungry.

Vatoni, Kiolana and Kouji

Vatoni looked over to Aaka eating. She was about to say something to her but stopped herself, Aaka had killed the sheep own her own and she had the right to eat it. She smiled at her children, "wonderful job" she said proudly. She then looked around, "where is Kanan?" She asked, her tone getting a bit worried.

Lana shook her head, "I don't know" she said.

Kouji shook his head as well, "He was helping me" he said.

Aaka*Thunder Storm

Thunder bounded over to Vatoni "Look look! I killed a Sheep!" She was so excited that she started to run in circles. She became so dizzy she fell over. She shook her head and saw two Vatonis. "Wow how did you do that?" But then Vatoni became one again.

Aaka stopped eating. She wasnt truly hungry. She had eaten earlier. Blood stained her white coat red. She smiled at Thunder.

Vatoni, Kiolana and Kouji

Vatoni smiled at the pup, and turned to her own pups, "lets take our kills to the pack lands, then we can find your brother and go help you father and the rest of the pack."

Kanan & Umay

Kanan came scampering in with his tail and ears back. He sprung over the fence but caught his feet on it and did a flip in mid-air, landing on his back. Quite embarassed and startled to say the least, Kanan picked himself up with his tail tucked humbly between his legs. He then looked around frantically for his mother.

Umay spotted the flip her brother did, "Momma, there he is!" she yipped.

Vatoni, Kiolana and Kouji

Vatoni sighed with relief when she saw her son and giggle a bit a the flip he had done. She would question him about where he had went latter, they had to get the sheep out and back to the packlands quickly. She then spoke seriously, "now, we need to hurry and get the kills back to our packlands before the 'pets' find us" she said. "Kanan, you help your brother with his kill, Kiolana, you help Umay. I will carry the other." With that she looked over at Aaka and nodded, before she picked up her kill and headed back to there packlands.

Lana went of to the dead sheep and grabbed it by the neck, waiting for her sister to help her.

Kouji picked his sheep up by the shoulder and tried to drag it but he would need his brother's help.

Kanan & Umay

Umay quickly grabbed part of the sheep and began to tug it back to the territory with the help of her sister.

Kanan hurried over to the other sheep, pulling his ears back a bit, knowing he might get in some trouble for his absence. He took his hold on the sheep and helped Kouji drag it back.
