Chapter 8: Chapter 08: Uranus

After covering a reasonable distance, away from their clan and caveland, they both headed deep inside the forest, blood curdling snarls was suddenly erupted from the forest and rushed towards them causing absolute pandemonium, she and her partner jumped opposite direction, as she dived, swiftly, she felt the impact of a leopard's body slam against her and reeled uncontrollably before they both hit the ground, the leopard on the top of her.

At that instance, the leopard made straight for her throat, chocking her and scratching her skin, blood dropped from her face as she growled, she suddenly kicked the leopard with all of her strength and was on her feet with lightening speed, she then charged, eyes blue, fangs out, claws five inch, charging forward she knocked the leopard down with super human force, kneeling beside it, her fangs sank deeply into the leopards throat reaping it open. As the animal tried to pull away from the deadly fangs of an angry beta, more and more flesh were rent apart with unnatural speed and precision. Soon the leopard laid flat wheezing for breath, then as blood gushed out of its torn throat, the leopard made a last feeble attempt to rise before it fell and lay still.

"Hmm, you put up a good fight though" she smirked and tapped it's head as she licked her fingers, cautiously, she rose from the dead leopard, her glance swept through the entire forest listening carefully

"Hey, seems as though the rest of the animals are having a field day?" She spoke, getting no reply, she turned and looked around only to discover that her partner in hunting had been torn to pieces, she wrinkled her face

Jolted beyond words she nonchalantly said "Told you not to follow me, later you'll be the one boasting that you are good at hunting"

Turning her neck swiftly, she listened carefully and heard about approximately fifteen lions running towards her direction, she knew she didn't stand a chance,

[Dang it, maybe the perceived the blood] she thought to herself

Giving her partner one last glance, without wasting much time, she took her catch and sped off from the forest

Uranus was where the werewolves clan settled after the were chased off from the universe of the humans they wandered around till the found a place of their own, it was a cold land surrounded with rich forest, and animals which had served as food for them centuries ago and still had enough for the years to come, it had a lot of mountain and caves,

At the outskirts of Uranus, evening was advancing and the moon was almost out, as the chirping of birds could be heard from above the cave, shifting from her half wolf form, the leopard on one hand, she headed back to the clan

Arriving at midnight, she got inside the huge cave, she felt some sort of uneasiness, like someone had been following her

"Where have you been?" A thin but firm feminine voice asked her

"Out" she replied sarcastically

"Out where?" She growled as she emerged from the darkness towards her

"Eassyy mother, little sister needs to explore, am I right Gabbie?" Cody said as he rushed to his sisters rescue

Mortica had gotten used to Gabriella hating her with the fact that she was not her biological mother, she was their aunty, and she could understand why she would be upset, no one could stand their aunty taking their mothers husband, and she was used to Cody always jumping in to defend his younger sister, she was here because she loved them most especially their father, but why does Gabriella need to be so wreckless, she would have been hugged to death by a bear last week, was it not for the rescue of her father, it took three of their men to free her and kill the bear, and now she keeps leaving the cave carelessly without caution

"I asked you, where have you been?" Mortica asked giving her a piercing gaze, with deep dark red eyes

Fear gripped them both "I went out hunting, in the forest"

"And why would you go hunting alone, hell you could have gotten yourself killed"

"I didn't go alone, she paused, I went with Louise"

"Louise? Where is he?" Cody interrupted

Gabriella ignored him "where is he?" Mortica asked

Gabriella held her breath, restraining her anxiety "he's dead, he got himself killed"

"He died? Cody asked wide eyes, Louise is dead, how?"

"Killed by a leopard or two leopards" she said frankly

"How dare you, you got your father's favorite gladiator killed, all due to your carelessness" she strode a few pace and stopped

"I didn't kill him, he insisted on going with me" she queried

Mortica stared at her blankly" I've got nothing to say to you, I won't tell on you, but you know what happens when your father finds out, you both should leave, and enjoy your catch" Gabriella stared at the animal in her hand, then looked down her feet dried blood was on her boot, she sighed then bowed her head low, striding slowly she left her.

---------------

Most days the werewolf clan loved carrying out gaming activities, it wasn't really a game it was a mostly hunting activity as it was to test their speed, agility and sniffing ability.

Very early in the morning every family emerges from their cave and gather in the forest, far from where they animal were staying, by then Mortica must have made sure that the hunters placed the parts of the animals they had killed at different respective points in the forest, they were usually one hundred and fifty in number, the family with the highest numbers wins.

The Boone family had won the hunt nine times since the origin of the hunt, and we're hoping to make it a round number.

Very early this morning at dawn, it had rained heavily the night before, the forest was dripping fresh and most animals were still at their sleeping spot, darkness was still yet to clearly relieve the clouds, through the cold misty dawn, each clan gathered in the forest and arranged themselves in a team, most families that had hunters had high expectations of finding enough parts as hunters were usually agile and fast .

They all arranged themselves and waited for the cave head,

"Alright we all know the rules"a deep loud voice was heard, Cassius Boone, the cave head emerged from the back....
