A young Shikoku trotted through the wooded area, her head was low, as was her tail. Her eyes were dark and seemed to be staring hard at something, unblinking. Something shifted in the brush, and the female stopped all movement, a paw held in mid-step, the tip of her claw just barely brushing the top of a small twig. She stayed in that same position for a while, not a single muscle moved until the doe lowered her head, her young laying curled up in the low grass.
The dog moved her foot further, so as not to step on the stick, and began moving again. She stopped when the doe raise her head, and got closer when she went back to feeding. The Shikoku could already taste the blood in her mouth, as she neared, thankful that she was downwind. Her instincts took full control, and she hurled herself forward, the doe turning and moving at a breakneck speed, the fawn stumbling about, trying it's hardest to keep up.
Paws and hoofs pounded against the ground, the doe leaping and bounding this way and that while Akki followed it at a comfortable pace. Her focus was not on the mother, who would be a very hearty, belly-filling, meal, but rather the fawn as it was slower, and she was only one dog. She didn't need a whole lot anyways. She could feel the angered pangs of hunger claw at her stomach, and she flinched at the sudden pain, her legs moving faster till she was just barely five feet away from the baby deer. Akki was almost there, she was so close now, so close to eating after so long.
The fear, she could practically smell the fear from the small creature as its mother bounded away faster, and inside the pure bred reeled with glee, and with a push from her powerful hind legs, Akki lept at the fawn, not quite landing on it, though her claws hitting it's hind legs, and that was all she needed. The fawn tripped and hit the ground hard, its thin legs kicking up in the air as the Shikoku dog pinned it to the ground. The doe looked on form a safe distance as her offspring was drug away, still alive, by the dog.
Akki drug the fawn away to a more secluded area, it stopping it's movements a while ago, and laid it down. It wasn't her thing to eat the deer she caught, she would just catch it for her master, but seeing as how she's starving and her master is nowhere to be seen... She stared at the small fawn for a while, as it stared back at her, wondering slightly which part would be better to eat first.
