Heero
Slipping behind the trees a dark shadow follows its prey of a moose. Slinking out from the trees to look for a sweet spot on the unsuspecting moose. Moving quickly from tree to tree getting ready to attack. seeing the giants neck, and realizing that the best hope was to attack and follow the animals cent. Getting closer to the animal was a chalenge all on its own. With only a few feet left I lunge for its neck trying to rip it to sreds while avoiding the antlers.
Blazed
blazed
a legend in the making
The alpha brute paused and lifted his nose into the air, snatching scents of his newest pack member and food. Blazed threw his head back and through his parted maw, he released a low baritone, calling the pack to a hunt. This would be where the new wolves would prove themselves. The ebony captain launched from his lookout upon a snowy bluff and hightailed it over to Heero. He did not yet know how this male intended on taking a bull moose out on his own, but he had give him nothing short of full credit. Winter was nearing its end, but food was still scarce and Heero had managed to find the pack a practical target. Blazed pushed of his hind limbs and lunged for one of the moose's limbs. Best let one handle the neck whilst another distracts him. Snapping his jaws shut over a bony hind limb, the alpha yanked for all he was worth, aiming to unsteady the heavy and meaty prey
Napoleon
A skinny but muscular wolf had heard the howl, and realised this was his chance to prove himself worthy. Napoleon ran in the direction of the howl, and came upon two wolves trying to bring down a large moose. He quickly calculated where he ought to attack, and lunged for the moose's free hind leg as it thrashed in the air. Narrowly missing a blow from the moose's hoof, he quickly sunk his jaws into the moose's thigh and held on for dear life, growling and sinking his teeth in further.
*Moose* and Artemis
The Bull Moose was grazing, unaware of the wolves closing in on him, but his pleasant ignorance was broken when Heero lunged. His forelimbs lifted off the ground as he struck out at Heero as he jumped for his neck. If the Bull Moose's hoof hit the wolf, some painful damage would be done. Lucky for Heero, the sudden appearance of the alpha male and Napoleon at his hind limbs threw him off balance. His fore legs hit the thawing ground with a sickening thud and the Bull Moose bucked and wheeled around to attack the two wolves with his antlers.
The hind limbs of the moose were heavily scratched up and his lower neck was torn into, quite a few inches away from his life-giving vein. The flat terrain around them left a wide escape for the moose and he was bound to make a run for it if he had to.

I like it better when it hurts
artemis threw herself into gear the moment she heard her captain call for a hunt. her pools glinted with steely determination. artemis was quite taken with her alpha but until recently, he'd already had a mate and he would not even look her way. this was her chance.
her surroundings were a blur as she raced to join her back. snow and slush seemed to explode from under her feet as she wove between trees and cleared shrubbery. the artic wind cooled the pink muscle protruding from her maw as she closed the distance. her ebony form flew over the remaining klicks. she was not just hungry, she had to prove her worthiness to her leader.
she directed herself the nearest snowy bluff and gathered herself to jump. artemis sprung off the outcrop and opened her jaws as she came bearing down on the bull moose. she mapped out the moose's path and landed noiselessly beside it. taking a leap of faith, literally, she leapt at its side and snapped harshly at its soft under belly.

I'll come back and beat you up
Heero
When seeing the attempt at attacking his friends Heero turned around and lunged for the nose of the bull moose. This was a distraction so that the other two wolves could go and try to tear that life giving vein.
Blazed
the brute scored a myriad of cuts on the hind limb of the bull moose just moments before the bony stilts thrashed out at him. the alpha twisted to the side and narrowly missed being hit by the stray limb. blazed rolled in the air and landed almost cat-like. his paws and nails dug into the soft, plush ground as he shoved off from the ground and moved for the moose's open neck. had it not been for artemis, he would have been in a much worse position.
blazed had skirted the moose and had lunged for the lower neck. his jaws aimed to snap shut around a pressure point in the neck while he reared up on two limbs, his for limbs digging into the side of the moose for leverage. catching his mark, he yanked ferociously at the skin and muscle. his pack hadn't eaten in a while and there were pups to feed.
Shadow
The black female saw them. The chase of the hunt overcame her submissive instincts to the leader, though she did not act dominate, but neutralized. Her long legs, and deep chest gave her great speed. She had a great streamline shape.She ran up to the side of the moose, taking a jump at the neck, from a blind spot. She was nearly sure to make it.
*Moose* and Artemis
The moose was thoroughly overwhelmed now and made to bolt. He shook his limbs roughly and struck out behind him as he made an attempt to escape. Blazed's tight hold on his neck pulled a muscle as he moved and the new attacker, Shadow, distracted him from his escape. He threw his neck as best he could but the wait of the Alpha male and Shadow did nothing but caused him more pain. He was loosing much blood and wouldn't take much before he was successfully taken down.
Artemis sensed the sudden tensing of the moose's hind limb and caught hold of the hip, tearing mercilessly into the muscles in the area. The moose squealed in distress, its fellow kin running even faster from the scene. Artemis swung her weight to the side, toppling the packs next meal. The moose now on its side left its underside and next completely vulnerable. Artemis leapt at the moose's stomach and tore into it ferociously.
Shadow
The sweet taste of the crimson fluid ignited the fae's predatory instincts, as she too began to feast. She still bore no threat, no sign of domination, but a submissive/content posture, thought her amber sights kept a watch for one who might like to start a fight. How she loved a good hunt, and this indeed was a good one, though she'd only been in the hunt a few minutes, if even that.
::She watched the other cervidae run in panic, and the onlookers, who knew it could possibly be them one day.
Blazed
The alpha male pulled heavily on the neck of the moose, his fangs digging deeper into the moose's flesh with every movement. He was closing in on the jugular vein. He was surprised, and glad, to see the newcomer, Shadow, and Artemis going all out to fell this animal. He was equally pleased with their actions, Artemis was throwing it off balance and Shadow was doing an excellent job of distracting it.
As soon as the moose hit the ground, Blazed re-gripped and shut his jaws around the life-giving vein. He felt the blood rapidly leak out of the vein until the moose was dead. Blazed surveyed the limp figure and acknowledged each of the pack with an accepting nod. They had passed the test and as of now, they were subordinates and ranks would be doled out as Blazed saw fit. The alpha lifted his head and through his maw he threw forth a song of their success. Their pack was gaining strength.
Blazed ended his song and rapidly at his fill and then some. He needed to feed his pups, especially since his mate, their mother, had gone missing. He did not yet know who he would ask to act as their surrogate mother, but the entire pack would take of his heirs like their own, whether they liked it or not. "Eat more than your fill, Cavalier, Rouge, Vatani, and Aleron need to be fed." At that, he nodded to his pack to eat and then to meet him at the den site.
Heero
After the take down of the moose Heero begain to feast on the mooses flesh. After he had his fill he walked to the river and took a drink. Heero then began to walk to the pack's den as instructed by Blazed
Shadow
::She licked the red blood from her lips. A sigh gave way through her nares, as she still fed. A scent caught her attention. She knew not what it was, but she was too focused to follow it. What was that scent? It smelled familiar, but she could not recall where she had learned of it before.
moose
A cow moose watched from a distance as her calf watched intently at a closer spot. He was one of the few heathier moose calves, one that had not contracted the disease.
