Who invited MoonMoon??

"Heh, don't worry about it, nothing to be ashamed about," the male smiled softly her way, "it's hard to get out when you're young, I understand that. Though I don't think we have much to worry about with what is going on, we should be pretty safe in our lands. As long as we don't get in the way, we will be alright!" The orange colored male smiled once again, back turned towards her now and tail gently twitching towards the end. It was nice to have another hunt with him, someone who wasn't that well attuned to it as well. Made it quite a bit nicer, as the two of them could become better at it; though, who really knew if he'd ever really are to learn much.

In that moment he turned around to look at her, eyes meeting her own and seeing the sadness that was held in them. "Don't worry about it, it's nice to have someone out hunting with me anyway. Makes it... fun?" he said with a chuckle, if that was the word for it, "let's not worry about it now, plenty of things to do to keep your mind off of it. One of them is to hunt." Rasmus motioned his head towards her, wanting the both of them to get going before their hunt got away. The decorations of his horn shimmied with the motion; gently tickling against his neck.


His feet padded towards the scent, body brushing against tall grass and rocks; though careful as to not make any loud noises as well. It was growing closer now, the scent that filled the air; this caused him to move slowly the closer they moved towards it. "Ready?" he looked back with a smile.

Lythium nodded and flicked her tail. His words were very soothing and seemed to calm her down at least. She had been worried but she let those feelings roll off her fur as she shivered slightly. She knew they were closer now and she was scared to even try to jump towards it. She didn't want to mess up but aa large part of her wanted to succeed as well. She wanted to be okay.

Her blue eyes blinked and she took a deep breath to help steady her shaking paws as she moved forward a bit more. She could feel her muscles cramping up a bit with anticipation of what was to come. She could almost taste the prey already. Her saliva was filling her mouth with joy.

"I aam ready." The words were spoken very softly as her tail swishes and her muscles bunched like coiled springs.

The male chuckled softly, paws gently digging into the earth below them; eyes content and forward where he needed to be. Slowly, he shifted his body around, towards the other side of the rabbit. It would be easier, just encase it decided to take of in that said direction; making quite the easy catch if it came right at him. "Alright," he whispered just before he had moved, "you stay there and I'll be over there, keep low and pounce when it come into sight, yes? I'll be right on the other side just encase it tries to take off on us." Ramus smiled at her softly, body ready, paws lightly dug into the Earth; and head lowered and ready to go. He just waited for her to make the first move.

She nodded. Her tongue fell out of her mouth as she panted. She could feel her saliva building at the thought of something fresh in her belly. Fresh meat!  Oh it enticed her. She smiled and moved forward slowly when she saw it come into sights and put her weight back before springing forward. She felt her muscles let loose like a coiled spring. The rabbit froze at first and darted to the right trying to get away from her as the small pup landed and she snarled trying to bound again after it, but she missed it by a hair.

Rasmus' body stayed still, eyes just watching the small animal, waiting for the right opportunity to pounce upon the thing; but it already seemed the female was on it. The small thing was making a run for it now, this caused the male to quickly jump up from his lower position on the ground. Ok, there was no way he was going to let this damn thing get the better of him! It was small and fast, but he could always be faster as well. His large paws bound towards it, the sound of ruffling grass filling the area around them. He wasn't going to give up chase though, even if his body grew tired and needed of rest. The male was just as hungry as the other, the rabbit was a decent size for the two of them to share. Even if not, he would give her more of it if anything.

The thing went into a bush, and he followed right behind. The only difference though? He got himself stuck with those large ass horns of his. Rasmus let out a soft whimper, followed by a bit of a yelp as well as she struggled to free himself from the branches. It was absolutely no use to him. "Damn..." he cursed on his breath. Not only did it get away, but he was now unable to get out of this bush.

She watched him startled by the whole event. She had been prancing in place thinking he was going to catch it. He was so close. She could almost taste the blood on her small milky white fangs, but then it was gone. The flavor, the excitement, and all that was left was the salvia that had built up in her mouth. 

Her blue eyes looked sadly upon her friend as she noticed he was stuck in the bush. Slowly she walked over to where he was. Her paw pads felt heavy as she stopped beside him trying to look at what was going on. "Don't pull too harshly. I'm going to try to help you," she said as she grabbed a branch in her teeth and begun to pull. She was trying ot make the opening larger for him s he could pull himself back out. "Pull!"

The male could only groan about his predicament, there wasn't a whole lot he could actually do on his own; not like he had hands that he could simply use to get out of this. No, he had to have paw, UGH! How annoying could this be? He hadn't even caught the stupid rabbit either! That thing was probably off laughing at him, mocking him for having gotten stuck.. or maybe that was it's plan in the first place. Get the horned one stuck in damn bush of all places. Rasmus continued to pull and yank about, trying to thrash himself about to become free, but that wasn't working at all. When he heard the female come up, he let out a soft whimper along with a sigh.

He stopped moving so much, allowing her to help him out of his situation. Once she told him to pull, he did, bringing his body back and eventually popping his head out of that cursed bush. "Thank you," he sighed heavily, just before sitting himself, "sorry I lost the rabbit, I know you were looking forward to it."

"It's fine! I am sure we can eat something just as good if we look for it," she replied as she flicked her ear looking at him sadly. A small smile pulled at her lips as she tried to stay happy. It was partly due to how sad he was. She felt bad about the lack of food, yes, but seeing him so sad made her feel like she had done something to bring this out. Her eyes blinked slowly as she looked back to where the rabbit had disappeared before looking back at him.

The tip of her tail twitch as her mind wondered a bit. "What else do you think may be out? We might be able to find something else if we really try," she said as she shook out her fur. "What if we try to find something more slow? Something not so fast like a squirrel? They're slower right?"

The male took in a deep breath into his lungs, of which he held for but a few seconds, then slowly blew it out into a light sigh of sorts. Maybe it was fine, she did say it was after all; but then again he couldn't help but to feel quilty for having allowed that rabbit to get away. His eyes flicked off in the direction of where the rabbit had gone. There was no doubt in his mind it was long gone by now, either that or it was a stupid rabbit. Yet, even at that chance it would have not waited around; this he could be certain about in his mind. Rasmus let out another huff of hair just before sinking his head down to the ground; ruffled among the grass around him.

"Hmm?" the male moved his head up enough to gaze at the other, "uh.. I'm not sure honestly, is a squirrel slower though? And if it is... can't it like, climbs trees?" To say the least, Rasmus had no idea what a squirrel was like, then again it didn't sound like the easiest thing to share either. If they did happen to catch one, he'd end up allowing her to eat it. With a soft shake of his head and a light groan, he lifted himself from the ground.

"Well, if we are going to find something else we might as well get one it, yeah?" he spoke with a soft smile, even if he still felt the shame of loosing the first choice.

She smiled at him. She wanted him to know that it was okay. She didn't want him to feel bad. Maybe she shouldn't have bothered him today. To be fair, she had asked him only to gain knowledge but perhaps given the current state of the pack, he may have had a lot on his mind that made it harder for him to focus on at the moment.

"Okay maybe not a squirrel since they can climb," she replied as she scratched her ear with her hind paw. This was indeed tricky. She knew part of being a good hunter wad knowing which battles to pick and choose. Hunting was in its own right a battle.

Lythium stopped scratching her ear and shook her head. "Maybe... we could try to hunt with magic this time? It might help us eat at least but won't help my stalking abilities. That is nightmare though.. it will need much more than a day's work."
