::
Vixen of the night sits, her 'hinds gracing the ground, as always poised, straight backed, tail gently wrapped around to lay beside her on the ground, her heavy ebon pelt barely ruffled by the descreet wind, that twined it's way past the barriers, and into this forsaken land, and around her, and the tree she sat behind.
::
Hooded sapphire watched everything, their expertise hidden behind 'lids of heavy black. A twitch, a ruffled leaf, all was seen heard, decipherd, and discarded within the twirling mind, forever in thought. One thought continually went throughout her head as she sat watching the surroundings.
::
Why did they not talk to her? Why did they discard her as a piece of filament, to be cast aside. True, none knowed her. But neither had they shown the initiative to find out, who she was...what she was. Thick muscles rippled under the heavy raven coat, as she continued to watch...continued to ponder.

Were they too afraid? She had guessed not...this was supposedly the "evil" land. Were they so "evil" they couldn't even be civil to their own pack? A small snort escaped her 'nares. That was sad.

The wind picked up a bit, as the sun reached high-noon, and she cast a single glance toward it through the leafy branches of the tree she sat beneath, the light relfecting her deep sapphires and making them burn, and bright blue, so depthful, so bright, hardley the ocean was even a match.

::
Ebon quartet, 'pon the land.
Steady, not making a stand.
Sapphire orbs peer into the night.
Emotionless chips, deviod of light.
A pelt silky smooth
As she goes 'bout her wishes
with nothing to lose.
Musceles ripple, 'neath the hide.
Tense, ready to fight, not hide.
::
Pad Pad Pad Pad, not a sound heard
As she goes along
'Cept her heart beat, a second long.
As if a curtain is pulled,
Milky teeth revealed,
A light in the night,
Less deadly concealed.
Eyes light, with a malicious gleam.
Prey before her flees, her presence seen.
::
A dash of paws, a ripple in the night.
A cut-short scream, full of fright.
The curtain reveals, teeth red-white.
::
A successful hunt.
She survives another night.
