The brute trotted to the elk ground, following his fellow pack members. He came to a slow stop turning all of his attention to Umi who was addressing him with the choice. ‘Quiet a choice to make .... safe and certain or a challenge ....’ he said with a darker undertone as he contemplated his choice. The brute then wondered around to inspect the elk his eyes flicking to each elk individually. ‘Elk tonight’ he said aloud so the others could hear , making his choice and wanting to play it safe. He began to inspect the elk further looking for the weakest one in the herd. ‘There’ he informed as he crouched lowering his mucled form toward the ground careful to not cause the elk to spook. He used tactic to manoeuvre his way around the herd waiting for the others to join him in the hunt and taking down the weak elk.

Tom nodded to Seth, a low growl escaping his maw as he rounded the elk so he was at its side. "Umi," He whisper, his cranium tilting towards the opposite side of the elk as him. He dropped closer to the ground, his muscles tensing as he pinpointed out the tendons of the elk Seth had targeted.

A smirk on her maw ‘smart choice’ Umi though to herself as she followed Tom’s gesture. Belly low to the ground Umi’s ice blue optics narrowed as her irises dialed to a smaller circumference zeroing onto the elk Seth had chosen. Umi made a mental note of the elk’s lame figure seeing it was weak. The golden dame low crawled around to the elk’s opposite side her paw steps soft and quiet as Umi avoide twigs and loose leaves that littered the grassy area. Eyes ever sharp as she glanced from her packmates to their prey.

The brute watched the pack members get ready , all zoning in to the same elk. All ready to take it down. His hazel eyes scanning the surroundings of anything that could cause a problem or that could interfere with the hunt. Knowing they were all set he began to move in whispering softly as to not spook the now defensless elk. ‘Ready?’ He looked to Umi and Tom. He began closing in gesturing the others to follow in suit. His eyes narrow as he locked on to the prey and he allows a small smirk to creep on to his face knowing the pack would eat well. All the while making sure he kept his body low - close to the ground, shuffling closer, trying to stay in the long grass.

Tom nodded his head, giving a steely look to Umi and Seth as he crept closer through the underbrush, his belly fur rubbing against the taller grass patches.

Umi gave a nod of acknowledgment to Tom and Seth as she too crept forward still with her underbelly on the ground as she crawled, claws digging up dirt a little as she went. Unknowing of its soon to be ill fate the lame elk still grazed.

Droplet padded along with the fellow lambdas. Strong rays of elk filled his nare. Instinctively, he dropped to the soft earth, the brutes underbelly touching the grass. "Ill go north" Droplet said firmly before making his way down the opposite path of his friends careful not to spook the elk.

The brutes ears flickered as the alpha spoke, his gazed cast over to him. He nods in acknowledgment. He whispered in a low tone ‘I’ll go south’ he began to go to the south.He crawled along the ground keeping low to his position, so that soon the elk would be surrounded and they could go in for the kill. He looked between Umi , Tom and alpha droplet nodding to show he was in position.

Umi moves ever closer eyeing the other three brutes waiting for a signal to launch herself onto the side of the elk she’s positioned at. Umi remains silent from her side somewhat west of the elk.

As Droplet reared up his position. He looked at the elk pointed out by the hunting leader, then checked for any signs of weaknesses or easy to reach spots. His optics studied the mammal for a few more seconds then looked at Seth, who was to give the signal.

Seth took note of where all the pack members were, his eyes flickering to each one. Now. Now was the time. He kept his position still. His fur ruffled up by the wind, his hazel eyes filled with determination. ‘On my mark’ he whispered. He watched the elks ear twitch, but nonetheless the elk wasn’t spooked... or even fazed. He gave the signal to the others in a harsh whisper. ‘Now!’

Umi smirked with a thought to herself ‘finally’ and with a launch from her hind legs she sprang onto the back of the unsuspecting elk. Umi latched her teeth into basen of the elk’s neck and her claws dig deep into its hide, the poor creature made a sound as if a cry in pain whilst the golden dame only kept her hold.

Tom grinned, shooting forward and out of the underbrush. He joined Umi in a heartbeat, taking ahold of a weak spot on the elk's leg, sinking his teeth into the flesh and holding on tightly. The pulled back and shook his head, trying to get the elk's leg on the ground to make it more vulnerable.

Seth watched the others spring to life as they launched at the elk. He followed suit. He launched to another of the elks legs trying to weaken it . Making sure it wouldn’t be able to get away he sank his sharp cainines into the flesh causing blood to leak and pour from the fresh wound. He snarled at the elk moved and cried out in pain. It made him all the more determined. His eyes narrowed as he gripped harder.

(eek)
Droplet who had heard Seth say the command, launched out of his hiding spot, and ran after the fleeing elk. Easily, the brute manged to sink his teeth into its thigh, which made it almost impossible to kick him. Quickly, Droplet shook himself and the elk as hard as he could, trying to knock off its balance.

Tom continued to shake his head, feeling the elk's tendon finally reach his teeth and he began to tear into the rubber-like flesh. He could hear the elk cry out in pain and suddenly it stomped down fast, nearly catching Tom's paw.

Umi still hung onto the elk’s back as it made a weak attempt to buck her off. The golden dame caught of her fellow packmates also attacking the lame elk. Umi made the choice to unlatch one of her clawed paws and sling it around to the elk’s neck aiming for its jugular slashing at it whilst still keeping her balance by her other claws and sharp canines.

Droplet shook himself till his maw ached. He was about to let go to catch his breath when he elk gave a long gruesome screech before falling to the ground, going limp, almost falling on the males paw. The brute let go after a few seconds. He let out triumphant howl. "Good hunt, everyone"

Umi smiled and swayed her thick tassel violently hopping off the elk carcass “Yes indeed, we’ll feast tonight!” She spoke with a gleam in her ice blue optics as Umi’s serious hunting demeanor changed back to her casual happy self. The golden dame eyed the elk licking her chops then gave a proud smile to the other brutes.

Soon after they all took down the elk. He smiled looking around and spoke up. ‘ great job you lot’ he spoke his voice full of praise. He looked to each of the pack members individually and then cast his eyes to the elk.’I agree we shall feast tonight!’ He nodded firmly
