*Kibaru would softly whisper to his companion* "Want to engage. We can strike now that we have an advantage"

*Ishikawa's face returned to having an emotionless expression as they discovered the wreckage of the caravan, making a low whistle to send his Hawk off. The bird would once again fly away, however, instead of circling overhead, it left the area, Ishikawa wanting to keep it out of the fight. 

Padding forwards carefully, he sized up the creatures. If he could get a lethal shot in on the beast now, it may save them some trouble. He turned to Kibaru, giving a silent nod. Motioning to move forwards carefully, he would start a quiet approach, taking care to look for the creatures weak spots as he was able to look at it more carefully.*

*Looking over the beast, it would be clear that the weak spots weren't the shoulder or back as those were fortified with the protruding bone. It's physiologically otherwise looked pretty similar to a tiger, just a bigger muscular tiger with thicker fur. Right now it was laying down, but wouldn't be a stretch to assume that like a tiger it's underbelly would be its weak spot. But would be rather difficult to hit it with arrows and getting up close would mean getting into attacking range of its massive teeth and cloths.*

*As for moving into position, Ishikawa would be able to reach the center of the clearing with little difficulty. There would still be a tree in the way of making a clear shot, but it wasn't impossible.*

*As for Kibaru, being the bold individual he is, would attempt to sneak up right behind the beasts. As he got closer the revolting scent of the dead would fill his nostrils along with raw blood. Even as a hunter, the scent of death is always hard to get used to.*

*As he got closer he would also get a better idea of how truly massive this beasts were. The cubs would actually appear to be bigger than normal tigers and were clearly bigger than him as well. It is no surprise why the village was suffering from these beasts, as given their size it would be a safe assumption that they would eat a ton. If they weren't dealt with the ecosystem of the forest would likely collapse as well. And perhaps with all that pressure on his mind he would find himself not paying attention to his footing and would hear a resounding snap as stepped on a branch*

*The mother beast and her cubs would immediately perk their heads up and turn to face Kibaru. The mother would let out a deep resounding growl and start to get up on all four, preparing to pounce on Kibaru*
Mary
*As they notice him, Kibaru would immediately draw his Odatchi from his back and slash down at the Mother and prepare to defend against her attack*

*Ishikawa, seeing that Kibaru had awakened the beasts, would rush to a location where he'd be able to make a clear shot, drawing an arrow from quiver as he prepared to make his first strike on the beast. Attempting to aim for the neck or heart, he drew, letting the arrow fly. Afterwards, he ducks down behind the wreckage, hoping to be obscured.*
