Without a glance to the undead predator that was following her, the jaguar tore up the land in great strides, her speed uncanny as she flew between the trees, running free for her first time. She leapt up a large rock in a single bound, surveying the land around her before she jumped into the nearest tree, her claws digging into the bark of the trunk, leaving large gashes as she climbed to a thick branch.<br/><br/>There, she stilled, listening and sniffing the air around her, waiting for the right moment to take down her prey. She spotted a doe and her fawn nearby; they remained oblivious to her presence as they drank from a small stream. Her breath slowed, eyes narrowed, ears folded flat and back, her body tensed and with one giant leap she landed on top of the doe, her prey squealing, the fawn scampering off. Her powerful jaw locked down on the helpless creature’s skull, crushing it, the noise of the splintering bones shattering the woods. The doe fell, dead instantly, not willing to share its newly killed meal with other predators, the jaguar drug the corpse up a tree, blood seeping from its wounds, pouring down the bark.<br/><br/>There in the tree, the jaguar devoured the meat, she hissed at anyone or thing that approached as she gorged on the venison. Only when it most of the bones were cleaned did she allow the body to fall from the branch, as she curled into a deep slumber.
