The snow suddenly creaks under the massive tiger as the whole of his body flexes and launches himself forward at the the pair of the fawn and female, despite the explosion of snow around him he remains almost completely silent as he bounds towards them in great strides, snow going off like landmines where he touches down. Mouth agape and breathing hard as he runs the tiger would quickly close with his targets, the female only having the time to take a step or two toward her fawn, to protect it and encourage it to flee.<br/><br/>By this point Bitsa's deadly close and barreling down upon them with every bound through the snow, at this point the fawn reacts finnally and the two are off leaping away themselves, but it's far too late, a slight redirection on the final is enough for the tiger to launch himself at the fleeing pair his fore legs and chest jumping clear over the female dear as he reached out for the fawn, 10 inch claws extended to bring the deer into his fatal grasp. They'd come down with such force upon the fawn that it would falter and flounder in the snow for a moment before starting once more to escape bleating painfully as the claws kept him still. In the same moment the tiger's hind legs and quarters would crash into the female deer, the sheer weight of the swiftly moving tiger bringing her crashing down to the ground, pinned under Bitsa as her fawn lay in his unforgiving grasp, the tiger layed down in the snow now and once the fawn was fully secure in his paws he'd look over at Tamara.<br/><br/>Mainwhile the male deer with it's antlers would first spot Bitsa and see his approach was directed at the female, protectively he'd face his antlers towards the tiger, stamping his feet as he readied himself for a charge some part of him hoping to save something of this. If he saw Tamara at all it would be late, Bitsa's dramatic entry to the scene having pulled his attention away from her own approach which would have the opportunity to strike the flank of the un-moving male deer.
