A large mahogany blur of flaying legs and pointed antlers darted across the open expanse, pieces of emerald grass and dark dirt kicked up in its frantic wake. A light tawny predator was quick on the deers heels, moving swiftly and effortlessly with the languid grace of a flowing river. She was a true beauty to behold, moving gracefully with the assurance that she knew she would win, knew this kill was hers. Large paws pressed powerfully onto the Terra's grass, propelling her further into a swift sprint that easily caught pace with the frantic moose, deer..or whatever the hell it was. It had meat and a beating pulse, thats all she cared for. In one final act of brilliance the golden predator leaped. The cougar was suspended in midair for a fleeting moment before her sharp claws met the mammals rear; tearing and gripping at the mammals thick hide without care. She clung there for a moment, blinded by arrogance that she failed to be aware of the deer-thing's powerful hind legs which ultimately ended in her failure. It kicked out at her violently, dark obsidian hued hooves colliding with her light underside and casting her off as if she were nothing but a rag doll.
She felt herself being propelled through the air, felt the breeze rushing between the single strands of her coat before a sharp pain erupted across her back, spreading like hot lava. Humiliation coursed through her as she fell into a heap, landing with a thump and small hiss onto her spine. She let free another low hiss of frustration, the sound painted with anger and pure annoyance. Seconds passed silently as she regained her bearings, the only sound filling the open area was her own rhythmic breathing which whooshed quietly in and out of her lungs; chest rising and collapsing. With what appeared a major effort, she flopped messily like a half-dead fish onto her side with an exhalation of breath, all traces of grace and elegance barren from her system and being. Her jaw hung ajar, baring rows of pearly teeth as sharp and threatening as a blunted knifes point. Soon the wind made it's own single approach; daintily pulling the fresh blades of grass along into a springtime waltz. From her point of view, lain on her side, the emerald carpet of evergreen shoots swayed constantly like the forever furrowing of the ocean. It was relaxing, poetic even, just the sense of peace she strove for.
The puma let out a content purr before hauling herself back up to balance upon her strong limbs, shaking the stray blades of grass from her sandy fur. Dipping her round head to give herself and once over, she noticed peering from her massive paws were her long claws, which in turn were covered with now dried blood. She smiled a faint smile, happy to know that she'd at least wounded the animal. The cougar was smart enough to know that the deers wound inflicted by yours truly would probably get infected.
"If it let me eat it, it's death would have been so much easier..." she purred cruelly, "No infections..No bleeding all over the place. Would have been much more humane." The female predator chuckled to herself, feeling her once dampened spirits elevate into a sense of happiness, as cruel as it was.
