3. Hunt
The mighty hunter prowled around the inside of the small cabin, searching out his prey.
Soundlessly, the hunter crept over to the sleeping room, but upon peeking inside, found it unoccupied.
The hunter proceeded to the sitting room, approaching cautiously, and aware of every movement inside… or lack thereof.
Still, the hunter persisted in checking the hot room, the food room, and the water room.
Empty. All of them.
Sitting, the hunter breathed in deeply, sampling the air. His prey's scent surrounded him, all of it quite recent.
…But not recent enough.
Halting his rising impatience with a firm shake of him mane, the mighty hunter stalked out of the cabin doorway.
Ah! There he was! The hunter searched around frantically, intent on running to recapture his surprise attack-
"Gil?"
A shy face slowly lifted its eye off of the ground to meet Laamgarnus' amused expression
A gentle hand ruffled his messy hair affectionately.
"Neko-chan, if you wanted some attention, all you had to do was ask."
