TFWolves - 13/400 HP
Reyniki - 29/30 HP

So close to finishing two people with this one. And come on, reyniki. 29 out of 30 lol.

I am getting close to getting done with all my current Tokota trades (other than my two newest ones of course), so that's good! I am very happy.
This picture came out well, although Barents came out awkward looking. It was fun and time consuming all the same!

TFWolves    - I apologize for picking an average Toko, I forgot. The others will be submissive heh.

SHORT STORY
The day was slightly foggy and damp due to previous rain and snow. The snow, however, had begun to melt, allowing the yellow and orange grass to be shown. It was the afternoon and a single group of three female caribou sat in a wide open field, chewing grass and licking snow. They were at peace and thought they remain so. One of the caribou ladies' ear twitched at the sound of unfamiliar movement but she remained grazing and did not bother observing or alerting her companions, and she certainly should have. Their herd was somewhere nearby, surely they would rile up some commotion should anything have crept into the field?

Amarok crept on the sidelines of the herd, low and alert. He had the tan Awi and the white Whiskey by his side, who were also positioned low and prepared to leap out should Amarok give the word. Not too far behind the hunting party were Tykorra, Jabba, and Barents. They were patiently waiting some sort of signal to join the hunt, but they would only join should the first group engage the hunt.

Amarok looked to Awi and Whiskey, signalling them to curve around the group on the sidelines and get on either side of the group. They have planned to scare the group towards Amarok, Tykorra, Jabba, and Barents so they could begin the assault. A common hunting tactic used by wild Tokota packs and it was certainly easy to maneuver should each member of the party have some experience in the practice.

It would take approximately ten to fifteen minutes for Awi and Whiskey to get into position and they would exchange looks to eachother, being paralell before they would begin the assault. Both of them trotted towards the group and would ensure the group stay together and keep them heading towards the ambushing group who were hidden upwind so the caribou could not scent them. They were all hidden in some sort of hiding place whether it be in brush or behind rocks and such.

The caribou ran frantically towards the ambushing group, unaware of the group ahead of them. Their only thoughts were to run away from the visible threats. Once positioned correctly, Amarok released a quick but loud howl to signal the waiting party to run towards the caribou to counter their run. They would split up, trying to get as many kills as possible from the encounter. Two would keep on one of each caribou.

Amarok and Tykorra, Awi and Whiskey, and Jabba and Barents were the selected couples to work together. They would persue the group and work together to take down the caribou. All three groups would keep to the side of each caribou and jump in to grab, tackle, or injure them at any chance given.

Amarok and Tykorra were the first to attack the caribou, Tykorra tackling the beast and causing both caribou and Tokota to crash into the ground. Amarok was quick to turn around, having ran past the surprise jump, and jump on the caribou, grabbing her by the throat and working to disable the caribou to be able to move further. The caribou attempted to get up and try to run but she was very injured, having broke an ankle in the fall. They would secure the kill without fail.

Jabba and Barents followed a similar pattern, and Jabba had grabbed at the caribous leg in mid-run, causing the caribou to trip over her legs and allowing Barents to pounce on the temporarily disabled animal. The boys would hold down the caribou and take turns keeping her down, as she thrashed and wailed about. They would hold her down and end her not too shortly after.

Awi and Whiskey tired out their caribou, and struck when the caribou had begun to slow down to ensure the safety of each Tokota. The tired caribou would almost give up, falling to the ground with her knee's folded, wide, blank and black eyes filled with fear and staring down each Tokota. Awi and Whiskey would end the caribou quickly. They were a mile away from the other two hunting pairs, having decided to take the more time consuming action of tiring out the beast then striking. It was rewarding and the more safest route, as the caribou was simply too exhausted to put up much of a fight, or any in this case. They would work together to carry the carcass back towards the groups, who had all agreed to meet at a large stone should they be split up.

Already at the stone with their kills, Jabba, Barents, Amarok, and Tykorra were exchanging playful gestures and observing eachothers kills, pleased with the results. Awi and Whiskey appeared with theirs and no scratches or scars whatsoever. They all offered greetings to eachother and would head back to their village with the kills. They handlers will be so pleased!
