Gia was stalking a village's edge, in hope of finding an unwatched chicken coop. She hadn't eaten in days, and her hunting skills weren't good enough by far to hunt something in the wild. Now she'd found this village, and she was more than determined to find at least something to eat.
She waited for nightfal, as her white-blue ish fur would be easier to hide at night then between all the green at day time - she'd be seen at a moment's notice. She knew that much from experience. As night fell, she started sneaking down to the chicken coop, using the moon to her advantage. She already learned that when she held absolutely still, people would mistake her for a rock reflecting the moonlight, allowing her to sneak through open fields and tall grass more easily. When she finally reached the chicken coop, she found to be in time. The farmer hadn't locked the chickens in yet, and the beasts weren't aware of her presence just yet. She snuck a bit closer, then launched herself at them.
The chickens made a lot of nose as Gia missed her target and smashed agains the coop's wall, causing something inside to fall down and shatter.
"What the hell was that?" came a voice from the house. "I'm gonna check it out," the voice once again yelled, and Gia could see a dark shape approaching the shed.
She tried one more time but missed once more and then decided it was time to bolt. With tears in her eyes over another lost meal, she ran across the field like a bullet from a pistol and hid in the deeper parts of the wood. there, she just laid herself down and curled herself up, sobbing to herself over the meal she had missed by a few inches.

A gentleman was what he was, though most wouldn't describe his other side as that. Oh, no. A monster was hidden, grinding away, eating at him every moment that the mutt got a chance, trying to make his life miserable. Trying to make him give full control of his body and soul, basically asking if he would die, just so that mean little mutt could survive.

Survival... What was it, honestly?

Being stronger, better and more prepared for the unexpected. To over come everything that lingered a threat.

The had a deal, him and the wolf. During the night hours, he would go and hunt, while during the day the wolf could hide benethe the Vampire's glaze, hidden beneathe the sun's rays. It might be concluded as odd, a Vampire running the day light hours without burning into oblivion, but the wolf's blood gave him that immunity, to enjoy the human satisfactions that most Biters would literally die for.

The night had fallen, and Demetri had given up the will for the momentairy night hours that were brutal on him, due to the traveling. He, of course, was oddly tired, but he hadn't a clue as to why. Probably because the lack of something large, something nice and bloody. Perhaps, just perhaps, Atrixion, the wolf, would let him suck the kill dry or just give him something to gnaw on...

Demetri vanished slowly, letting the breaking and reforming bones twist and turn violently large, much larger than his own bones. Stronger, more blunt, and more... dangerous. But it wasn't what was on the inside that was dangerous, but the muscle that clung to the bones, and the dark, ashed gray fur that hid him brilliantly during the night hours. Large claws that were brilliantly sharpened with a jagged edge to catch and hold his prey. Large Jaw with dangerous, long teeth that were long and pearly white with the hidden tinge of blood that had resided there from nights previous. He was horrifingly terrifing, dangerous and not to mention, hungry.

Dark fur contrasted by bright golden yellow opticals that were dangerously watching everything in the midst of the grass, trees and the forest, trying to catch the latest wiff of a new prey that was foolish and unsuspecting in the game of life. A fleshy pick scar drug down his eye, hairless scar showed of the wound that had healed over months, maybe even years ago. Another beside it, running down to his lips. The curled silently in the happiness of a fresh scent... Hm. Intresting.

Paws gripped and grasped at the night's dirt, hugging low to the earth, stalking silently.

Waiting...

Anticipating...

Rough tongue running against his jowls, moving forward slowly.

Gia was still sobbing slightly but starting to calm down as the werewolf approached. She shook her head as she stood up and licked herself clean for as far as she could reach herself. She wasn't used to this yet, and even though she had learned that licking dirt off her fur was the best way to clean herself, she still preferred jumping in a stream of cold water. Regrettably, there was none close by so she really had no choice at all. S she finished, she laid herself down again, stomach growling.

She was slowly starting to fall asleep as she smelled something... odd. Savage, even. Shivers ran down her spine as she tried to shake off the feeling that beset her. She had to run. She knew it. Every fiber in her body screamed that she needed to run because her life was in serious danger. Her anger for having to get dirty again was quickly defeated by utter fear as she noticed a pair of yellow eyes staring at her. Or at least she thought she saw it - she couldn't be sure. Her heart started beating like a madman and she quickly bolted in the other direction, almost tripping over the first treeroot she stumbled across and running off, deeper into the forest.

His eyes were trained for the night, trained for the adventures and unsuspecting fools that wandered aimlessly around, hoping that his kind were just a myth, a fantasy, a lie...

Hoping that they were, indeed, safe as could be.

But nobody was safe.

Never.

Not even in their own home.

It was a kill or be killed game.

And in this game. He was the killer.

The air whistled lowly in the night breeze as his large paws brushed the grass below him, his paw breaking, snapping... ruining his chances due to a simple branch. It caused him to growl out heatedly under his breath as the meal that had prepared itself, caught wiff of him and took to the wind and tried to get away. Being much larger, heavier could be an advantage, but also a downfall, due to his weight not to mention the ability to get into smaller and tighter areas... He might, just might go hungry tonight.

Those glowing golden yellow eyes of death followed after the creature... Catching it here and there, watching it bolt in the other direction. His heavy weight causing the earth to shiver under him as he continued to follow.

Dinner... Dinner... Dinner...

Gia's heart was beating like a child's being toyed by a demon. She ran as fast as she could, but it wasn't fast enough. For now, he could maintain a safe distance though, but she'd have to find some place to hide, or whatever was following her would get her sooner or later. Hearing something large following her, she knew that whatever it was, wasn't just coming past to say hi. It had every intention of killing her on the spot.

Eventually as she ran, she spotted a little cave a few yards in front of her. her heart jumped hopefully as she quickly made for the cave. she started to enter but got stuck. Her heart racing, Gia started twisting and turning like a madman in order to get through the small opening, but eventually she got through the rocks. The cave wasn't too large, about 1.5 meters broad and 3 meters in length. Nevertheless, she walked all the way to the back of the tiny cavern and pressed herself against the rocky wall, looking outside in fear that whatever followed her was just going to tear up the entrance in his rage.

This was a game.

A fun game at that.

A target that ran, it gave him an oppertunity to work out the muscles that hadn't been getting much of a stretch lately. Due to the lack of hunts he'd been gathering for himself. Oh, this was fun! Very fun indeed...

He'd play with the creature until it got caught up so much in hiding, that it won't watch where it's going and mess up somewhere. Do something to give him that easy chance to catch it. Fun... So much fun.

He wanted more, to keep this game going...

For as long as he could. But he could feel it, it coming to a screeching hault.

His large paws kicked up dirt as he ran viciously towards the game that would soon be his in any moment, if he could help it. He couldn't afford to lose again. Especially since this one smelt so delicious. Mmm, he wanted to savor the flesh that would be torn and pulled, digested and savored. He licked his chops at the desires and dreams.

Catching a quick turn, the large beast slid and hit the ground with his hip, legs kicking as he tried hard to get up quickly before the animal, being, whatever it was, got away from his large paws. Catching a break, his paws finally decided to work with him and gave him a good leap in the direction, just to leave another large thud besides the nasty slide that made his hip ache like a beast. He'd tend to it after he fed.

Atrixion saw the small little cave and the animal getting stuck, he growled with fury and tried to move faster.

The animal ended up crawling with better ease into the cavern minus the fact that it got stuck, if it could get stuck, he'd be worst off. Shoulders slamming violently against the caves sides, something violently cracking, but it wasn't just the rocks crumbling and cracking, but his shoulders. He pressed through, he was bigger, wider, broader, he was having a tough time pushing through, getting at the prey, he growled and hummed viciously at the other before he started pulling away, he retreated momentairily, just to wait outside for the lingering prey to come tumbling out.

That's when he'd get him... Mmm...

Gia was shivering inside her little hideout, both out of fear and because she was cold. She'd hoped the cave would give her some comfort of the slight rain that had been falling, but her fur had gotten too wet and she had no room to shake herself dry. She laid herself down, curling up to herself as closely as possible in order to get some semblance of warmth. She didn't even look to the cave's entrance. The larger wolf had retreated for now, and she was satisfied with that. She wasn't going to provoke it any further than she apparently already had, so she just stayed put for now...

The wolf hadn't gone very far, not very far at all.

He had managed to trap a larger breed of rabbit between his large, muddy paws, the creature slipping and slithering around within the mud to put a damper on the darker color of its fur until it got away momentairily as the rain pounded to the larger wolves fur, making it stick to his broad shoulders and sleek dark fur. Hitting his paw down once again to trap the rabbit, scooping him up as the creature panicked until the very last moment.

Having snatched up atleast something small, made him happy. The light crunching of bone between his large canines, he had found some shelter under the brush of the trees that had been bent down and slightly curved. He was going to lay in wait, hoping that the other came around to feeling safe.

Gia decided to spend the night there. Even though she couldn't manage to get any sleep, she still got to at least rest a little bit. When the night had finally passed, she stuck her head out of her little cave. Whoever it was, he seemed to have disappeared. After sniffing about for a while, the blue wolf picked up a scent, the scent of blood. He must've gotten another prey... She wandered out and started sniffing around for more clues as to where he had gone.

The night seemed to loom on with endlessness.

Having fallen asleep with the rabbit corpse half eaten, bones strewed between crossed paws as his large head rested against the foot of the tree for the moment until his nose flared with a stirring scent of a familiar came rousing in his nostrils.

Golden eyes slitted tiredly before pulling himself up into a stretch and a mild shake, hoping to get the dried mud off of his fur. He groaned lowly, his large paws pressing through the brush as he moved on, trying to get to the edge of the forest. Hoping for something good to pop up along the way.

Gia started slowly running around, still weary fo her environment. Had the big wolf really given up so easily? She sighed in relief and headed into the forest, oblivious of the werewolf's presence.
