Caylis [Meurtrier]
It seemed as if the only one up, she was always the early bird and one of the most hard-working, she wanted to make Meurtrier proud. She gave a long stretch and padded up to the little lake that held fresh water within. She lapped up a few drinks as she lifted her head and turned her head to the dawn's light as birdsong filled the Veldt. She pricked her ears to see if anyone would wake. Hopefully nobody would awaken, she wanted them to have a surprise for breakfast.
In a heartbeat, she went to go hunting, hopefully everyone wouldn't wake, she hoped not, but it'd be alright if a few members of Meurtrier or Jaaku, she didn't care would join her to plan the surprise. She summoned clones of herself as they spread out, she scented a bunch of hawks nearby as she leaped for a hawk at the speed of light, clamping her jaws to it's throat with a silent screech. She landed as at least fifteen hawks were on the ground, ready for breakfast.
But that was not all, she noticed a moose nearby as she crept stealthily towards it. The moose however flicked an ear and started to bolt off, at a split second Caylis was off, her claws unsheathed, she didn't need any powers for this. The Hallowess started to claw at it's ankles, dodging a blow aimed for her face as she took a bold leap for it's back, digging her claws into it's flesh. The moose tried to shake her off with it's large antlers as she slashed it's muzzle, leaving claws marks across the bridge of it's nose.
And that was when the rodeo started, it started to go in circles as if it was going homicidal. "Holy shit!" she said, getting slightly dazed, after a few moments, she started to yowl. "YE-HAW!" as she bit into's it's throat, tasting the tang of warm blood. Oh, the frenzy! As she started to squeeze, it fell to it's side as she leaped to the side, blood splattered on her mouth as she licked her lips. "Uh-huh. Wait until Cocaine or Funeral hears about this! So much for: 'That's pretty reckless dear.'!" she chuckled teasingly, quoting Kodiac Kannon's quote, speaking of the Bloodbeast, where was the family? She shrugged and dragged the lifeless body to the dens as she dropped it, laying down by Kodiac and her cubs with a playful smirk.
In a few moments, the whole of Meurtrier and Jaaku would be jumping for joy, she chuckled. "Enjoy, my fellow Meurtrierans and Jaaku members, enjoy the feast." she started to curl up to Kodiac to keep warm.
[Holy shit... that was probably the biggest paragraph I ever wrote in this forum! Well, I guess it's because Meur has been so quiet lately, I apologize in advance c:]

Corvette was one who enjoyed the cool, humid hours of the morning. The shark cat did not have a very predictable sleeping pattern, but that was a fact that he could not help. During the hottest and driest parts of the day, he would retreat to the pool. Lord forbid Meurtrier ever face a drought. He would have to leave.
This morning had started out as it usually did; hunting and tracking. Despite his appearance, Corvette was a stealth hunter and was skilled moving silently both on land and in water. Much time was spent reading tiniest scents and sounds. He was quite proud of his ability to catch most any type of game. He had located a capybara and was slowly stalking the tropical creature, weaving through the foliage like a fish through water. He was within ten feet now, but still hidden. He could catch at this distance, as the creature would not have enough time to start running very fast.
Just as he was about to break cover and lunge after his quarry, a loud voice startled both him and the prey. “No!” Corvette snarled as he lunged after the bolting creature, but its adrenaline gave it the edge it needed to outrun the land shark. “Fish for breakfast again,” he sighed. While he was a member of the pride, the rogue life he had lead before made him a creature who wanted to rely on no one but himself. He would help the others, but was reluctant to accept help. Now was the time to find the source of the disturbance. It was unlikely that he would find prey so close to the dens after that shouting, so he would now relieve his frustrations. As he approached the dens, he noticed a dark figure, Caylis, dragging a moose back. His expression grew sour and he bore his many teeth. She had to be the source of the shouting. “Hey!” he shouted. “If you’re going to hunt in the morning, make sure not to scare all the other prey off in the process! Or do you want the rest of us to go hungry?” She might offer him part of the moose, but he was stubborn and proud.

KODIAC & GEMINOR
[/i] Spat the grumpy, old female. She flopped down and glared. Kodiac had been sleeping, for the most part. Children with him, and he had assumed Caylis. Though as the spot near him grew cold, it was clear she had gone. His eyes opened, slightly, and was not surprised that his suspicions were right. An early-morning hunt, perhaps. The bloodbeast sat up and waited for her to return, and when she did, was surprised by the large meal in tow. Nice, a moose. He was rather hungry. Though he jumped a little when she announced the meal loudly to everyone; likely waking those near enough to hear. He gave Corvette and Geminor a look, though not one of anger. Not of agreement either, though. Then his gaze fixed on the moose as he laid there silently.[/ul][/blockquote] |

His little ears flicked as his father stirred beside him, before noticing the absense of mother too. Wow, he had been beaten twice over in waking, he was sure not to let this happen again! "Hey dad where ya' goin'? Dad?" He said as he quickly got up to stretch and shake, before quickening up to his father's paws. In the cool morning air he fluffed up to warm up, and to look as big as his father... Though it didn't work too well.
The sight of his mother made him shift his paws excitedly. Food! and he was near to running out there and greeting her; but her loud announcement followed by the sudden hissings made him back up towards Kodiac again questionably. He cocked his head at the others, not understanding the fact his mother had disturbed them and other prey, all that he had on his mind was the food. The cub muttered to himself "What's so wrong with gettin' up early? Time for breakfast anyway!" With a confident look, he weaved out from his father's paws and strutted up to his mother. His voice was meant to be proud, but the fact he was hungry made him sound a bit whiny "Well I think it's a nice catch, mama. Can I have some?"

Caylis didn't care about the complaints of Geminor and Corvette. "Hm? Did you say something?" she said calmly as she turned to look at her son. "Thank you son. You remind me so much of your father. Besides that, nobody is going to be left hungry or alone. Weakness isn't tolerated here, especially starvation. If you are to complain, keep it to yourself." she said calmly, people had to watch their mouth. She also gave everyone a warning glare not to be greedy.

Corvette nodded to the ally, Geminor, noting that she appeared to have the lineage of a Donovan, and was more inclined to give her space due to her advanced age. “I was not so concerned about being awoken so much as the possible meal I was stalking that she scared off.” His thick tail whipped back and forth. “I’m not looking forward to fish yet again. I wanted something less oily,” he groaned, his caudal fin catching a branch and dragging it to fling across the row of dens. His ears went back and he looked away for a moment. He hoped it would not hit anyone.
His nostrils flared and he snorted loudly. “You should go see Viciado. There seems to be a problem with your hearing.” His eyes dilated a bit and he moved so his weight was no longer on his knuckles, but on his paw pads. “What does weakness have to do with it? Starvation is caused by a lack of prey.” He examined the carcass quickly and made a few educated guesses. “Next time you decide to ride a moose, I suggest you do it more quietly. Besides, the best hunters do not attack in such a loud manner. You could have made more kills and brought back food for more than just four adults. If you haven’t noticed, this pride is full of monstrously sized cats. One moose won’t help anyone. That is hardly a feast. Let’s not even mention Jasper’s appetite.” He was irritable and hungry, now. The moose’s blood was driving the land shark crazy. Yet, he refused to take so much as a bite. His aquamarine eyes fell upon the pond. He would sate his appetite with a quick snack and then venture farther out where the prey would not be hiding. It would be hours before the prey relaxed in the vicinity, after all.

KODIAC & GEMINOR
[/i] Snapped the female. "You listen closely to what the land-shark tells you. A feast? A FEAST?!" She snarled angrily. "This isn't a feast it's a snack! At least have the self respect to act like an adult, CHILD." Growled the female, at last, as she took a small step back. Kodiac took that as a cue and moved from his spot abruptly whilst clearing his throat. "Ladies, gentlemen, please. I think it's fair to say that what's done is done. We can live and learn, and move on. There is food now, some of us can eat. We can always hunt more later. No need to go tearing each others' faces off."[/ul][/blockquote] |

His cubbish pride quickly turned into fear and submissiveness as everyone began to yell. He was no longer able to act brave when so many people he looked up to were fighting and hissing. His ears folded back and he ran for his father, gathering once again under his paws. Perhaps his siblings were lucky this time not to have waken at the time he did. "W-why can't we just be happy and eat?" He whined, a bit louder this time, but mostly to his father.

Brynneth heard all the commotion and nodded her head to Kodiac. "I agree with Kodiac. It's better to move on." she said, trying to raise her voice from depression. "No need to raise voices when there are cubs around." she looked to her own cubs and started to take a hawk and went to share with her cubs with a sigh.
Caylis's ears flattened, she looked back to Kodiac saying she was sorry without moving her mouth. She looked to Geminor and Corvette. "I apologize." she said calmly. "I'll be better next time." she nodded to both of them before looking at the sunrise. "I'll take a stroll, perhaps hunt more later to feed. If anyone wishes to accompany me, they may." She started to walk off into the mountainous maze as she wondered if anybody would accompany her.
