Teeth sank into the back of his neck and the kernel of fear that sat within his stomach exploded into full blown panic. There was a small bunny hop before, he began to twist himself around, flinging him self upward in a desperate attempt to rid himself of the dark one. It was not use they were to strong. they hold on him held fast and he had the the sinking suspicion that this wasn't going to end well, to make matters worse he didn't even know the name of the one attacking him. " Why are you such a bid meanie?" Maybe, someone could turn them into a really small creature and then he wouldn't have to worry about this big thing attacking him again.

Round: 4/??
Attempt: To buck him off.
Defense: N/a
Injuries:Gashes along and a bite to the back of his neck.

It struggled beneath him, but it was futile. He had his grip. Soon they would be dead. For a moment, the tiniest flash of something went through him - pity for this creature. It struggled, it fought, it suffered. If it had not fought him so, it could have escape - or it could be dead and his stomach would be sated for now. Or, perhaps, if he had not hunted it, it would never have suffered in the first place...

No. The thought was silly. He was a hunter. This was the prey. The darkness demanded this order.

He held on tight, loosening his jaws a bit so he could get a better grip. Once he had it, he bit down again, harder, stronger. Snap the neck or tear the throat. Either would work, either would be death. This was taking too long. The hunt should have been over. This was not right. He was so hungry.

Round: 5/?
Attempt: bite harder
Defense: none
Injuries: none

He couldn't just give up. There were things that he wanted to do now that he was out of his chrysalis, like crawl back in it, and never come back out ever again. Once more, he tried to throw the dark one from him as their teeth sank deeper into the back of his neck. This time, as luck would have it, he was able to break free, but not without aggravating the bite to the backof his neck causing it bleed more profusely than those raked across his neck.

Taking a few steps away from the dark one he stopped, panting. He would've run, but he was pretty sure that this one would follow him, and there was also the fact that he knew nothing of where he was going. "Stay over there. I will bite you."

It was fair play, they had bit him.


Round: 5/??

If anyone thought that any of Canis's residents wouldn't hear the frantic calls and pleas of a newborn being attacked by another newborn, they were --- to be frank --- a dumbass.

Eythan had just been casually munching on his own sort of food, a half-eaten rat from yesterday that was the size of his entire forearm. It was a big bastard, and had about clawed his eyes out when he caught it by the side. Of course, it was just food, and not really a trophy. The gryphon didn't really get the appeal behind keeping trophies. It was much more reasonable to just leave the carcasses by some rocks (y'know, where the stinky Lessers's warrens seemed to be) and wait for them to come out and nibble on it. They weren't very picky.

Neither was this child(?) that likely stood as tall as himself, already. Keen eyes glanced down at the thing as it was bucked off of an ungulate of sorts --- no antlers, not a deer, at least --- that was crying out for it to stop. After a quick scan of the situation, Eythan figured that the dark one was the one that had instigated this, given it kept scrambling for the poor takin with a rabid sort of eagerness.

Without much sound, he swooped low, toes spread out and intending to take Azrael from behind, effectively pushing him down onto his stomach and holding him there by the shoulders. All the while, Eythan barked a brisk, "hey!" Eyes narrowed as he made impact, spreading his weight so that most of it was exerted on the demon. "Stop it," he growled harshly, ears back, pushing a little with his front half to reduce flailing.

Realizing that the other neonate might read him as another predator, his gaze softened for a moment, and he called out in a placating gesture, "are you okay, kiddo? Those wounds don't look good." A toss of his head, toward one of Canis's cleaner pools of water. "You should go and wash them out, alright?"

Blood flooded into the beast's mouth and there was a low grumble of satisfaction. He would have food soon. He did not concern himself with how the hatchling's blood tasted - this wasn't important in the face of a meal. He prepared himself to give one final snap of the neck when the prey suddenly was able to break free. He stumbled forward and then righted himself, staring down the takin with a headful of confusion. This was not correct. He had hunted prey before and they had displayed the same pattern of run in fear or die easily. This one was not correct.

This shouldn't be.

But that didn't change the fact that the demon was hungrier then ever. The blood on his tongue had given him a taste of his meal and he was anxious to finish what he'd started. He took a step forward, arms raising to grab at it again, when there was a sound behind him. He paused and was about to turn when something slammed into his back. He grunted as he fell, the hybrid pinning him to the ground. The scent coming off of this one was different from the takin. Older...and a predator. Bigger then him.

Rage rolled forward and he snarled, fighting against the creature holding him down. This was his meal. This was his prey! He wasn't going to let anyone take his food from him! He would not make easy pickings! But his struggles did nothing to throw the griffin off of him. He opened his jaws and let out an earsplitting roar before his struggling became stronger, wings flapping this way and that to try and throw him off.

He stood, watching, waiting for the dark one to strike. They took a step a step forward their arm raised to slice at him again. He tensed as he readied himself to leap out of the way, when a body slammed into the dark one. The breath caught in his throat as he took in the other's features. They as well screamed predator and for a moment he wondered if this one was going to target him after he dealt with the dark one. Until he asked if he was alright, motioning towards one of the pools to clean himself off. "I am bleeding, but whole. That thing...' The words came from him in a low rumble as he did what the other ask of him. wants to play rough. I don't like them."

The water was a cooling distraction as he sank into the pool. A sigh escape him as for a moment the events that had transpired were forgotten, until the once clear liquid turned red with his blood. " I didn't do anything to them. I'm just.... where is here? the question was asked while he stared down into the now murky water. His first day of life and been the worst one yet.

The idiot child underneath him had the gall to give a pathetic shriek and flail around in an actual temper tantrum. Eythan barely batted an eye, scowling and pointedly lying down, putting his full weight down on the damn thing. Digging an elbow into the space between its wings, keeping it down, the gryphon reached forwards and, sliding his foot across Azrael's cheek, he expertly snatched its mouth closed. "Shut up," he growled, not entirely in the mood to try and have a conversation with this poor hatchling while this actual monstrosity screamed incessantly. "If you're going to make noise, it better be words to explain yourself."

Anyways.

The gryphon put on a much more pleasant face, watching as the takin plodded over to the indicated pool, sullying it with blood and spoke. He couldn't help but laugh, a bitter and sharp bark, "kid, this thing wasn't trying to play rough. It was trying to hunt you, and I'm not sure if it's a stupid Lesser or not --- like the rats, y'know?" If it didn't make any indication of actually having a brain in the next few moments, Eythan didn't think he'd have very many qualms against just kickballing the thing into the Chambers and having himself a little meal. Anyways, this kid didn't know where he was, which was fair, he supposed. "This cave's called Canis and it's, as you can see, full of bones. Other caves are a lot better than this, honestly, but apparently I have to eat bones to live. Prime pickings," you could practically hear the scoff in his voice. "There's some pretty nice caves elsewhere, full of grass and stuff. You look like you eat grass."

Wow, species profiling, much?

Even as the monster struggled, he learned quickly that he would not be able to throw off this creature. He was outmatched. His prey was lost. If he wanted to live...he needed to run. He bared his teeth and growled low, wriggling around under the predator's grip, trying to free his bottom arms. The gem against his chest began to glow more strongly, although the two most likely could not see this. Intense heat ran into his palms and the eyes within them squeezed shut before they burned. With both of his lower arms, he reached back, pressing against his wings, and grabbed at the predator's legs.

It was enough. The grip loosened behind him and he didn't hesitate, reaching forward with his front legs and dragging himself forward until he could get his back legs on the ground and lunge forward.

He pushed himself far enough that he was free from the predator and could stand properly. He didn't hesitate, didn't turn around to attack, merely bolted, out of the chambers, letting loose a frustrated roar as he went. On all fours he sprinted away, occasionally leaping over piles and spreading his wings to glide before running yet again, away from those two, to find easier prey elsewhere.

Ah, so he would've died had the other not come to his aid. This did not over concern him. Whether that be from the lack of his grasp on the concept or the simple fact that the fight was over was yet to be seen. "Canis." The name sounded odd of his tongue. No, the cavern of bones was not where he should be. Bones looked...unappetizing at best, he wasn't sure what they looked like at their worst. There was little to be said about if he ate plants, it seemed his body did subsist on such things but then he had yet to come across any.

The quiet of his thoughts were broken as the dark one broke free of the other's grasp causing him to leap from the pool. His hooves clattering against bone are he sought to right his footing. A startled yelp came from him as the watched the beast bolt away a roar trailing in its wake. " Thank you for making sure I didn't...die? I'm going to leave this place of bones and hopefully never come back."

With that he left the other standing where they were, not even catching their name, as he bound away in the opposite direction, unknowingly going to wrong direction.
