It took some time for Anemone to catch up, but she did eventually reach his side thankfully. The animal was barely alive, still trying to cling on as it slopped about in the sand. It was possible it got caught up in some storm perhaps and washed up here. Or it just got lost trying to find its way home. What ever the case, it had such horrible luck coming to a beach that had predators waiting at the shoreline.

Anemone quickly cackled around it, while Tasik went for the rear end of the animal. Carefully, he nipped at the creature, trying to keep it busy and tire it out further. It was up to her to find an opening for a quick kill. If not, he would take things over from Anemone, but hoped she didn't need much guidance to get the job done.

The animal was weak, much to her relief. Anemone knew she couldn't hope to tire a healthy seal, but a sickly one... maybe. Time would tell. Her breathing was steady as she rounded the seal; Tasik went for its tail, nipping at it. The animal made a noise, angry, but tired, and swung its head in the man's direction.

Anemone knew they couldn't make that clean killing bite they normally could for land prey. Seals had a thick layer of blubber whether they were healthy or frail, and she knew her teeth weren't long enough, or her jaw strong enough to penetrate it. Instead, she darted in to tear a chunk of flesh from the animal, right near its neck. It was a risky move, and she darted away before she could do as much damage as she wanted, as it roared and swung back around to try and bite her.

It was bleeding now, though, already trickling down its grey, sandy body.

The rich taste of its blood tingled on her tongue. It had been too long since she had the pleasure of sampling ocean prey like this. They would relish in the opportunity, especially with a hunting partner.

Anemone took his sign to go ahead for an attack. She made her way around the seal, picking at it until she was able to get a good clean bite on its neck. The seal roared and swirled to meet her, tired an angry as it tried to defend itself. Tasik went for another bite, this time on its side as he jumped towards the animal from behind. This time the bite inflicted was a bit deeper, though still struggled with getting past the thick blubber. He dug in as hard as he could however, coming away with his own piece of meat and tossed it to the side. There was still a chance they could take it down, but it would require patience. Yes, they could do this.

Concentrate. Nemo couldn't worry about her heart right now. Besides, it seemed to be doing alright, pulsing in her chest steadily. She watched, focusing more intently on the hunt, as Tasik leapt forward to tear a chunk of his own from the seal. It swung back towards him, but made no attempts to move.

Perhaps it had already given up, and was merely lashing out in pure instinct. Nemo leapt forward again, but scrambled away when it seemed to sense her coming, bearing its open mouth at her, the white of its eyes almost entirely red. She wrinkled her nose at it and snarled. Clearly it hadn't given up just yet, but perhaps it was too weak to make the last-ditch attempt back to the ocean.

Trying to create a better opportunity for Tasik, Anemone mock lunged at it, keeping its attention hopefully long enough for him to inflict a worse wound to the beast.

Both wolves did their best to make a good attack on the seal. But it kept on snarling and trying to keep them at bay. Tasik could at least see that it was tiring, slowing down from the blood loss and just pure exhaustion. That's when he saw Anemone take their shot again at the creature, trying to distract it so that he could possibly move this along more.

The pale wolf lunged at the seal, landing on its back as he sunk his teeth into its neck. His jaws remained locked on to the animals clamping down as hard as he could while the seal tried to swing him off. But he still hung on for dear life, just hoping to inflict more damage so that it would just give up and fall.

Tasik could do more than she trusted her body to, lunging for the beast with his mouth fixed on its neck. The two engaged in a wrestle; the seal trying to dislodge the dark man from its vitals, and Tasik trying his best to stay latched. Anemone wasn't sure what else she could do, considering it's mouth was still avaliable to bite her.

But, meh, she figured it would be more focused on Tasik. She lunged for its belly, knowing it wasn't any less protected from attacks, but hoping if the seal decided to attack her, it had more room to cover and she would see it coming.

Nemo mauled the creature as best as she could, biting, shaking her head, and letting go. This was harder than she thought, especially on a weak and empty stomach! Thankfully the seal seemed to be tiring...

Tasik kept on biting the seal's neck and shoulders, doing all that he could to tire the animal out. Blood leaked from its wounds the further he dug, but tried to keep it from going after Anemone. She took her chances going after the seal next, making him proud that the girl was just as brave as he was. A good sign that he was right in letting her stick around.

The seal soon had enough, throwing the wolf off of it with one final swing. Tasik tried to keep it busy though, barking at it to make sure that his partner could still do some damage while she had the chance. Then slowly the seal began to really tire out, leaning over with exhaustion and pain. Surely it won't be much longer now.

Nemo was able to get in a good few shakes before she felt the seal lurch, and she darted away, expecting to feel teeth any moment now. However, it seemed to have only thrown Tasik off its neck, its final burst of energy before accepting its fate, apparently. They watched warily as it slumped, panting, giving them the confidence to dart in again and worsen the wound they were working on.

They only got so far, however, before they really did feel teeth trying to tear the skin along her spine. She immediately darted back, growling at the seal, more irritated at herself for being so impatient. It was only a matter of time before it bled out; she shouldn't have rushed in. A thin trickle of hot blood ran down her hip - nothing serious, thankfully. Hopefully Tasik was able to get in another good bite while it had been distracted biting her.

The seal has thrashed him off pretty good, but he wasn't about to give up. Tasik caught a glimpse of Nemo however, leaping to strike at the seal with one last bout of energy. It was a good try, but he was now concerned with her wound. The smell of wolf's blood now filled the air and his eyes couldn't leave her form for a short time. That wouldn't last long though, as the seal came wobbling over to try and scare off its attacker. Tasik took the opportunity to run around the animal, leaping on to it again.

A bite rather large came from the wolf, finally ripping into its hide and tearing out the major blood vessels. In mere seconds, the seal slowly started to become lifeless. It's corpse now splayed out across the snowy beach. A moment of silence was given out of respect to the seal, with Tasik making a slight head poured down to the ground. I thank this creature for a bountiful meal, and for the heavens' generosity this evening. Thank you. He looked to Anemone next, a kind smile drawing from his lips. Go on ahead. We shall eat together as one. Thank you for your immense help.

Thankfully, it seemed to be over. Nemo could tell she was starting to reach her limit; her chest ached that tiny bit that made her wary. Any more, and she may push herself and end up collapsing. She hadn't dared do so in a long time, not unless it was necessary to save her own, or someone elses life. She would gladly pass out if it meant she did some good in the world.

When the seal made the last ditch effort to scare Tasik off, he lunged at it. Anemone didn't see what he did, but when he pulled away, muzzle covered in blood, they knew the seal was all but dead. Thank the skies above. Forcibly relaxing her body, she strode forward to press a hesitant paw to its side, testing if it had any fight left, or if it truly was bleeding out.

Nothing. Tasik began to speak, drawing them away from the cooling corpse. He thanked the seal... perhaps he was religious? Either way, Nemo lowered their head, too. Thank you, she echoed, unwilling to offend her hunting partner after he'd done most of the nasty work. When he glanced towards her with a gentle smile on his face, she smiled back. Thank you! You weren't around, I probably would have failed the hunt. Her chest was still twinging, which wasn't great, but at least it was over now.

Without another word, she began to work at the wound she'd made, chewing through dense blubber happily. She needed this. The blood practically sung on her tongue...
