On the Hunt: The Battle at Big Rock (Six Campers Short Story)

Fight!!

I bit down on the baby's head and start shaking it back and forth. The little menace kept on thrashing and I couldn't keep my grip on it. It's piercing cry was starting to hurt my ears, because of that, I had lost my focus and my grip. The baby tan back to its mother as I try and snap at its legs. The mother had enough and charged me. I had gone to bite on one of her horns but she ducked underneath and lifted me up and onto my side, pushing me into one of the two leg's.....thingies. The mother went to impale me but I had kicked it in the head with my feet, dazing her enough where I could get back to my feet.

I lunged and bit down on her horn. She was trying to back away from me but I had pulled her towards me before I move to the side and bash the side of her head with my own. With her dazed, I bit down on her neck and started to throttle her around me. Her pained screams echoed through the trees. She kept trying to move away but I held my grip strong and continue to apply pressure on her neck. She sudden stood of her hind legs and that loosens my jaws as she comes back down and bashes the side of my face. The scared wound opening up with blood rushing down my teeth. I roared in hate at the mother. She had limped back to her baby as her neck was dripping with blood. I knew that I had her hurt. She was going to pay for wounding my face scar and I'll make sure that I savour her baby.

But before I can make the final lunge to finish her. A loud rumble and the sudden appearance of her mate made me have doubts. The buck was huge, almost as tall as me, his horns were more threatening than his mate. I knew that I was outnumbered. I could take one horned one but not two, I'm crazy but not that crazy. I roared in frustration at the horned family as they shook their heads at me and began backing up away from me. The mother and the baby stood behind the male who just glares at me before snorting. I felt insulted by that but I held my urges back. He was mocking me to attack but he knew that I wouldn't.

I watch them leave and I stand there in distaste. First, the mother actually was able to break my hold on her neck. The baby was able to get out of my jaws and male had shown up at the worst possible time. And what's worse isn't hat there are no two legs here. I can smell them but I see none around. A piercing cry reaches my ears as I shake my head of the noise. I turn sharply to the two leg thing behind me as I see five two legs. Two adults, male and female, and there's young ones. The smallest one was crying and it was hurting my ears. I'm hungry, in pain, humiliated and this this little two leg is making it worse. I walk over and knock the thing that they are in over onto its side. I can still hear the small one crying as I shake my head of the noise. Shut up. Quiet!
