Truthfully the boy didn’t care much for fighting or proving himself. He did, however, like appeasing his father; making him proud. And he was always game for some fun, regardless of what kind of fun it was. His father’s idea of fun was wrecking havoc on those around him. Valor didn’t mind participating occasionally, but he it definitely wasn’t his favourite thing to do.
The silver Ritter looked a little hesitant, but she did not voice any opinions that knocked around the inside of her skull. Her lips remained tight as she turned her attention to the coyotes, but not before offering a curt nod as a response. His tail swayed gently behind him as amber pools turned toward his ebony father, his posture stiffening as he waited for the go ahead. I will show you how it’s done. This time it was Valor’s turn to nod as he watched his father launch his body forward and throw his body weight against the mangey creature. Three of the other coyotes had disappeared into the trees with their tails tucked beneath their legs, leaving one more for the trio to play with.
However, just as the scarlet boy was about to lunge forward at the remaining mutt a familiar tawny shape appeared in the clearing. Borya. The large male did not hesitate as he tossed himself against the other coyote, his jaws connecting with he creature’s throat. Valor did not flinch; instead he watched intently, observing the differences between his father’s method of attack and Borya’s. He stepped forward, hesitantly at first, before sprinting toward the coyote that his father had contained. His own jaws latched onto the creature’s thigh, pulling and tugging as he whipped his head back and forth with the intent of causing damage.
