Neutral tri-colored duo moved silently threw the brush and falling leaves of the River Danson territory. Shuriken the older of the two brothers that hunted together, was trailing a herd of doe. The mostly grey colored wolf mix knew one doe had a broken leg, a good first kill for his young and learning brother. They were far the scent was strong and soon, if the pair continued to be as silent as they were they would catch up to them while they rested in the clearing Shuriken knew was ahead.
Shuriken though, still held a guilty conscience. During the second half of the war, he helped to ruin the mountain but at the same time, was the one that saved it from complete destruction. The used to be slave to his older brother now found himself a teacher and role model too four younger siblings, Wraithe being one, then Nehan, Alphonse and Edward. Shuriken was happy with his growing family, but wondered about Blade and San his niece and nephew forsaken by Knives and were about as old as himself, then Younin one of his other relatives. He grimaced, Younin was very loyal to Knives and soon Shuriken was sure that Knives would send, Younin with the two duality dragons Bayo-Net and Cho-Pan after him to recollect his life and kill him for his treachery. He wouldn't fear them though, he still had Shidoku and now her two kits to help with that particular problem.
He found his steps slow to a stop and his mostly black furred younger brother run into his back leg. Wraithe grunted as he ran into his older brother and looked around. He saw his brother’s gaze locked straight forward, ears perked, and body ridged. Wraithe’s gaze went forward and his brother slowly went into a crouch, but before his gaze was obstructed by grey fur he saw the eight or so deer downed in a clearing in front of him. The one they were stalking was two the right of them, on the edge of the clearing, her hind leg sprawled out awkwardly. The mostly black pup felt his tongue slide over his lips. Crawling around to the front of his brother he looked up at his brothers gaze. The emerald eyes were going about here and there devising a plan then finally fell on Wraith who still watched him eagerly.
Shuriken put his muzzle to one of his brother‘s dark grey tipped ears, “Hunting isn’t all about chasing and killing, though they are important if you want to make a kill, you also always need a plan. “ Shuriken said barely in a whisper. “You are small, but I trust you to be able to grip the injured leg of our prey, go over to the bushes in front of her and I’ll chase her towards you. Be silent Brother.”
Wraithe scrambled up at the orders, and crept towards his point. A few times he could feel the ears of the doe twitching as he made a careless step on the dead leaves that now littered the forest. As soon he made his mark he felt his heart pounding, and it went faster and faster as he could swear that the doe he stood next to could hear the frantic sounds of his small heart. Shuriken would move any minute now as soon as he found the right moment to startle the prey in the correct direction.
