Nightshade

The pitch-black coywolf lurked in the shadows, becoming one herself. Her piercing yellow eyes were sweeping the area for something. Prey. Human prey. She licked her lips as she continued, glancing back to make sure Failure was still with her.

Failure

Failure was indeed behind the black coywolf. He stood watching and waiting for a human to chance by. His fangs were slightly bared in anticipation as he waited with impation. His own body was black, but his eyes were midnight blue. Now they stared out looking for his and Night's "prey".

...Come out, come out...
...Whoever you are...

*Teenagers*

There were four girls walking down the sidewalk, three of them laughing while the fourth girl trailed somewhat behind them. They ranged in height and weight, but they were all a close knit group. Except the one trailing behind. She was the 'leaders' sister that had gotten drug along. It was her birthday today. How sad is that?

They weren't paying attention, when do teenagers ever do such a thing?! It wouldn't be hard to take down one or two of the girls...

Nightshade

Nightshade grinned when she saw the girls. This would be easy. Too easy. She stalked forward, motioning for Failure to take the one trailing behind. Nightshade had an idea.

The black coywolf rushed forward and leapt at the one who seemed to be the leader. She wouldn't kill her yet. No, she wanted to bring the followers to their knees. If she got the leader, she'd hold her by the back of the neck, hopefully temporarily paralyzing her. All the while she stared at the followers, growling savagely. She wanted to see what they'd do.

Failure

Failure grinned evily as he saw her gesture. Than turning he appeared out of the shadows going strait for the girl trailing behind. It all happened in a flash so most likely the girl wouldn't have a chance to fight back. Right now he wanted to play with his "prey". So he attepted to savagly tear into her leg immoblizing her from getting away. Than he too turned to watch the girls like Nightshade was doing. He waited for her command with a evil grin upon his face.

*Teenagers*

The leader of the group saw Nightshade and made cooing noises towards the female when she attacked. With a bloodcurdling scream, the girl tried to run but soon fell, with the coywolf on top of her. I'll get help! Screamed one of the girls. She took off running, her friend close behind her. "Back up on getting help"

Failure's victim wasn't going down without a fight. She struck out at the wolf with her fists, trying to kick him in the ribs and trying her hardest to get up. She wasn't going to die on her birthday!

Nightshade; Astra

Nightshade continued to hold the girl down. She grinned as the other two ran. Yes. Run straight into the trap, girls.

Astra, a daughter of Nightshade and James, jumped in front of the two girls. She looked almost exactly like her mother, though she had white ears that resembled those of the African wild dog, as well as bushier tails. Two tails. It was a birth defect, though it never caused any problems.

The coyote/wolf/African wild dog hybrid stood there for a moment, being very calm, trying to make herself look harmless, and then she pounced, trying to get whichever one she could.

Nightshade watched her daughter. Then, seeing no reason to keep the leader alive, she jerked her head, trying to break the girl's neck.

Failure

Failure was succesfully kicked in the ribs. However that seemed to trigger his evil side. A bloody, vicious snarl ripped from his throat as he leapt at the girl. He attepted to tear into her arm before going to the other leg. He was doing this to cause her so much pain she wouldn't be able to move without falling or calling out with pain. Than he noticed Astra. He wondered who she was, but for now he was too distracted to ask. He watched to see if he needed to get the last girl. After all his victim wouldn't be moving any time soon after what he did to her...

*Teenagers*

One of the girls stopped at the sight of Astra, while the other kept running. She ran straight towards a store, no more then twenty feet in front of her. There was no way Failure could catch her in time, Astra would have to be the one to do it leaving the fourth girl to duck into the store, just to her left.

The leader was successfully killed, her screams cut short by Nightshades fangs.

The girl on the ground covered her neck and tried to wrap one leg around Failure and propel herself up. Maybe, just maybe she could catch hold of him...

Nightshade; Astra

Nightshade licked the blood from her fangs, leaving her kill on the sidewalk. She then stalked after the fourth girl. She was a bit startled to find that when she approached the door, it opened. It must like her. Or it was scared. She howled, calling for the rest of her children, before she entered the store. She growled at everybody who looked at her while she searched for the fourth girl.

Astra leapt at the third girl, trying to chomp down on her throat and kill her instantly.

Failure

Failure was succesfully caught by the leg again. Except this time he snapped and shook his head so hard that this attack should go strait to the bone. Once she let go he leapt for her neck to end it. Once he did that he than turned to follow Nightshade into the building snarling at anyone that dare come near him. He too searched for the fourth girl ready to call to Night when he found her if he should find her first. Failure stuck to the shadows though as he made his way to the back of the building. His gaze constantly swerving.

or if he didn't get away the first time he again attacked viciously till he killed the girl from a vital bite, or loss of blood.

*Teenagers*

Astra's victim was taken down with success, unable to even scream for help as the fangs bit into her.

The teenager that Failure was after was grabbed hold of by the throat, still punching at him every chance she got, but eventually the life faded from her eyes and she lay limp.

the fourth girl, however, had raced to the back of the store and was hiding in the store room hiding behind a closed door. there was little to no way of getting inside for the wolves, and by standers were beginning to panic and call Animal Control. If the wolves didn't leave soon, they would be taken out by Tranquilizer darts and taken to the labs to be tested for Rabies and other... Misfortunes.

Nightshade

Nightshade looked around at the humans, knowing shed probably be in trouble soon if she didn't leave. She just wanted to cause a bit more panic for these filthy humans. She knocked a shelf over, causing a domino effect as more and more shelves fell and crushed the people who stood behind them - five adults and three children. Then she grabbed a woman by the leg and dragged her down to the ground, the human's head hitting the floor and killing her.

Nightshade loved Saturdays. So many people to chew on.

But wait! There was a child, a tiny baby, in a stroller. Nightshade had an evil idea. She would raise the baby. He would be her helper. Her partner in crime. She gently grabbed the baby. The coywolf then rushed out of the store. "Back to the territory! Cover your tracks!" She shouted to Failure and Astra.

Astra raced back home with her mother.

Failure

Failure licked his chops still relishing the blood he had tasted. Oh that girl had tasted so good. Soon though the fun was done when Nightshade ordered them home. With a quick fake snap at a olderly male the brute raced back to the terra making sure his tracks were covered. He wondered what Night wanted with the baby, but he ask questions later.
