Markus yawned, waking up and asking, "Where are we going?" He stretched and wagged his tail slightly.

"To hunt." Ashina said as if it was obviouse. "There is a pack of deer that like the grass near where I first found you. There should be some there now." Ashina headed towards the entrance of the cave then waited for Markus to fallow her.

Markus ran after her, "I promise not to screw up this time." He smiled, and she knew that he would not fail her in this. It was important to the both of them.

"I trust you. now quiet." Ashina said as they came closer to the small clearing. There where several does and one nice size buck grazing on the sweet grass of the clearing. seeing one doe particularly close to several bushes Ashina judged her to be their best choice. "OK you go that way and wait untill you see me move first before you do anything else once you get into that bush." Ashina explained indicating the bush she wanted him in.

Markus nodded and slunk off, disappearing in the foilage. He would not be seen or heard or smelled by the does and the buck. He grinned as he snuck on his belly, finally getting to the bushes.

Ashina made her own way to the doe and waited for Markus to make his way there. It was only a couple minuets later when Ashina saw the slight movement of the bush that signaled his arival to the designated spot. She prepared for the first pounce at the doe. her body was crouched low to the ground her muscles tense in antisapation. a momentlater she attacked catching the deer unaware. The other deer scatered at the sight of her leaving the one she was aiming for to run in markus's direction.

As soon as it was in range, Markus pounced the deer, biting it right on the neck and bringing it down to the ground. It struggled for a moment then lay dead, and Markus let go. He saw, however, that the buck was not about to leave without killing one of them. It charged at Markus, who used a tree as cover. As the buck charged, Markus stood, waiting for the last possible moment to jumpe out of the way. The buck punctured the tree, getting his horns stuck in the tree. Markus ran back to Ashina, "I think we should go, before he gets free."

"We can't if we want to eat." She said indicating to the large doe he had just killed. "I'll deal with the buck." she then crouched low to the grownd again but to avoid injury as she stalked closer to the large and frightened animal all the while growling. The Buck quickly got it's horns free and lowered his head to the ground to challenge Ashina. "Just leave and I wont kill you as well." Ashina barked to the buck. Seeing a chance to leave with it's life the buck took it and bolted for the foliage with the rest of the deer. once the buck was gone Ashina trotted happily back to the kill and happily dug into their dinner.

Markus made sure to leave most of it for her as he ate. It was now established that Ashina was the dominant wolf here. He ate quietly, but was amazed by her ability to scare that buck off.

Ashina ate her fill of the deer quietly. Once she was full she sat back from the carcuse and licked her jaw clean of the blood. "There is still a lot left we should barry it so we can finish it later." The white wolf said using what she had learned from her former pack mates.

Markus nodded, digging the hole quickly and without upsetting the soil too much. It was short work for some reason. The hole was large enough to fit the carcass in there.

"That is good." Ashina praised then dragged the carcass to the hole and helped bury it. "Now that the work is done are you up for a little run or whould you prefer to go back and sleep off you meal?" Ashina questioned not wanting to push her new pack mate.

Markus barked and said, "I don't mind a little run. Lead the way, Ashina." He wagged his tail, ready to take off on the word. Markus hadn't really served under any pack, being lost some time after birth, but he was pretty sure that Ashina would be the nicest one he'd ever meet.

Ashina gave a short howl then took off into the forest fallowing a path she had taken many times both by herself and with her former pack mates. "Come on pup." Ashina lightly teased as she made an elegant leep over a fallen log.

Markus laughed, passing by her and barking, "Right, I'm the pup and you're the old lady!" He followed next to her, managing to stay in front of her, but was able to predict where she was going next. It was good exercise for the both of them.
