The calico plopped down on a log, letting out a frustrated sigh. What he didn't know was that behind him approached a wolf, significantly bigger than him. It kept downwind of him so he couldn't detect it, even if he tried. To the lumbering ebony creature, the feminine knight was his midnight snack.
All of a sudden, it lunged for the back of his neck just as he leaned down to examine a pawprint in the ground. The wolf's yellowed teeth grasped his scruff and caused the male to let out a surprised yell. Of all the things.. As the mindless predator realized that its' prey wasn't dead between its jaws, it lifted him and tossed him at a tree.
The captain's blade took most of the blow but the impact of slamming into the trunk still knocked the breath out of him, even more so as he dropped to the ground. The wolf prowled closer as he forced himself to his paws and debated on what to do. This wolf was huge, much bigger than any he'd seen. Granted, he hadn't seen many but this was just outrageous.
He swallowed hard, unsheathing his claws and looking for a weakness. He even took a few steps back to put some distance between them. One wrong move and he'd find his body crushed between the jaws of the behemoth, he had to do this right. Key debated calling for Ichigo, maybe warning him that there may be a pack but he decided against it. He already had his pride trampled on, he wasn't going to allow him that chance again.
As he was thinking, the wolf lashed out at him with a paw but he carefully avoided it. Damn, he was in deep crap. He really oughta get another body, a bigger one that he could actually fight with. His original was just too small, he was practically a munchkin! God, Ichigo better not call him that, he swore he'd kill him.
Deciding to make use of his resources, he used his powers to penetrate the wolf's mind and alter his memories to cause him to forget how to breathe. Immediately the creature started gasping and struggling to catch a breath. He used this opportunity to dash forward with lightning-like speed and sliced open his throat.
The wolf fell to its' side and convulsed for a few seconds before falling still, blood spilling out into a pool on the ground. The knight let out a relieved sigh and leaned back against a tree. He hated his luck sometimes.
