Subject: ~*Hunting*~

*She walks silently on four legs, her tail held low and still, and her scales blending in perfectly with her surroundings, rendering her invisible. She spies a herd of Domatira and folds her forelegs to stand on her hind legs. Her teeth silently extend from her skull, and the claws on her hind feet raise and stiffen. A low rumble is emitted from deep within her chest and her eyes shift from their camoflauged coloration to that of a golden mottling. Still stalking silently, she moves upwind of the herd, causing a mild state of panic among the deer-like creatures. They lift their oversized heads and bugle, shifting their positions nervously. The hunter crouches, golden eyes narrow ominously. She turns her head and shrieks at the forest behind her, and the piercing cry echos all around. Still upset, the herd moves downwind quickly. Tageera leaps into the trees above and travels quickly and lightly among the branches, soon reaching a point just above the herd. Still running, she selects a well-muscled male and suddenly leaps out of the branches, landing amidst the male's back. It slightly larger than she, the male howls and goes berzerk. Tageera slashes with first one toe claw then the other on either side of the Domatira's back, digging deep into the flesh. Bellowing, the male rakes his antlers along his back, in a motion to scrape off his attacker. Tageera glides forward, up nearer the skull, and slices at the male's spine with her tail and toe claws. Grasping it tightly with her forelimbs, she stabs it repeadedly with her dagger-teeth in the back of its skull. It stumbles and swerves trying to keep up with he herd, which is now some distance ahead and gaining. Tageera shifts her weight entirely on one side of the crett's body, slicing at its foreleg with her tail blade, cutting it deep. The combined efforts of her bodyweight and tail cause the crett to fall, which meant the end for the unlucky prey.*

(OOC: I know that was long, but I get into it when I hunt ^.^ sorry)
