The darkness had covered the forest, and the only light came from the gibbous moon. In the forest, almost nothing stirred, almost as if the forest itself was holding its breath. Kai was merged into the shadows, so that she could hardly be seen. Almost nothing but her yellow orbs could be viewed, and even they could disappear at the slightest blink.
Despite the darkness, Kai knew that there was something in the forest, and her nose was telling her that it was deer. For, at the edge of the forest, stood a small group of the red. Amongst them lay a fawn, it's long, shaky legs making it an easy target to the wolves.
Kai did not hunt for pleasure, in fact sometimes she wondered what it would be like to just eat berries, or grass like the deer themselves. But gifts had been given to her to enable her to hunt, and so hunt she did. But not like the vamp, but like the true wolf.
Kai turned her gaze back to see if Rose had followed, hoping to see something to confirm this. But, something that the deer could not.

Rose crept silently through the forest, following Kai's steps. As the fea stopped Rose scanned the forest, and saw what she was looking at. A young deer was there, and its slow legs would make an easy hunt. As the alphess turned back to look at her, the femmora nodded her head ever so slighty.

Kai noticed Rose's movement, and felt glad that she was there, and had not fallen behind. The young deer would indeed make a good meal, and would be easier to catch. But with a protective mother and family, it would be hard to get them away from it. She began to concoct a plan inside her mind, and after just a few moments she had enough to make the first move.
Kai slowly crept forward, drawing closer to the forest edge. It would not work to simply jump out at the fawn, for they would surely have to face the adults. Kai lowered herself closer to the earth, before suddenly leaping out of the trees. It may have been considered a mistake, but not to Kai.
The herd instantly sprang away with the sheer terror of Kai's form, and the fawn almost fell as it tried to follow from its lying position. Perfect... thought Kai to herself. The ebony wolf leapt after the herd and the fawn, and slowly began to draw closer to them.

Rose was kind of suprised at Kai's sudden movement, but an idea came to her head. Quickly, she leapt silently after the deer to the right, hidden by the bushes. They seemed to sense she was there, but couldnt quite see the wolf, making them even more confused. she jumped out of her hiding spot, and raced after them. The deer saw Rose and in fright turned left, moving away from her. They had run straight at the alphess...

Kai almost laughed in joy as Rose used her plan to great effect. This was just what the ebony Alphess had been hoping for, and as the herd turned towards her, she pursued with more speed.
It only took a few moments for Kai to be on top of the herd, and the fawn was already falling behind. Like a spring, Kai leapt into the air and landed upon the fawn, knocking it to the snow covered earth. Their bodies rolled just once, before the she-wolf bit down into the youngster's neck.
It did not take long for the bite to take its effect, but Kai would not eat yet. She raised her head up to the stars, and murmured something below her breath. "May your spirit rise to the heavens above, and be in peace forever. For you are one of their creatures, and respect is all I can give you." It was how she had been toughed, to honor the creature that gave it's life for her.

Rose bowed her head as Kai gave the speech, and then looked up at the fea with questioning eyes, asking for her permission to dig into the glorious meal....

Kai noticed Rose's glance, and the black she-wolf nodded her head for her to come and share the food. Without a large enough pack, there was no need for feeding rules. After Kai was sure Rose understood she could eat, Kai bit into the flesh of the fawn, feeling the still warm blood enter her mouth. But unlike the vamp, she could control the bloodlust, and instead began to chew on the succulent meat.

Rose understood the nod Kai gave her, and the fea padded foward hungrily. She put her head down and bit into the warm flesh, hot blood flowing in her mouth and down her throat. Rose ripped of a piece and began to eat it. She was glad that it was a deer they were eating, and not a fellow wolf.
