A small wolf came into view, and he tensed, waiting for others to reveal themselves. But it was alone. Sniffing carefully, he discovered it was a female, probably a bit older than himself. The she-wolf had shaggy white fur, a brown line running down her back. Her eyes were different colors, one was red and the other light blue. While Kai found this odd, he didnâ€™t bother to give it much thought.<br/><br/>He watched her look from him to the deer, then back to him. â€œSo, you killed this deer. Mind if ya share her with me?â€<br/><br/>Kai gave a low growl, his head dipping down. He didnâ€™t like how presumptuous this she-wolf was. Her attention was suddenly pulled away, looking north. Kaiâ€™s ears twitched curiously. A wind whisked through the woods, bringing scents of the earth and woods and wolf. He shifted uneasily, his ears flattening against his head momentarily before returning to their attentive position. A caw reverberated through the trees.<br/><br/>Finally the she-wolf looked back at him. â€œOh, sorry, my name is Nikitatou, but you can just call me Nikita for short if you wish to.â€<br/><br/>Again, her audaciousness irked him. Wandering to his kill and asking to have a share. Honestly, he should just scare her off. Then it dawned on him. She was alone. Like him. He knew how difficult it was to come upon food without a pack to take down a weekly kill. Raising his head, he looked the she-wolf â€“ Nikita â€“ in the eye.<br/><br/>â€œFine.â€ He growled. â€œBut I want the damn heart. Itâ€™s my kill.â€
