"You need to hunt."Lucus decided soon after me and Phoenix had calmed down and after the endless pain had eased. "The pain will ease once you have a drink." Phoenix grimanced at that. "Soon you will kill for that." Lucus said sadly."The first few months are the hardest for your thirst."
"Follow me Damian,Phoenix I'll get you guys something."
It seemed like the forest was as endless as that as that pain we experienced.Finally we reached a clearing. A lone stag stood there grazing at the pale green grass.
"Stay still don't move or speak a word" Lucus whispered almost silently.So quietly that the stags ears didn't stand up.
Lucus motioned for us to watch as he crept silently towards the stag being very careful not to snap a stick. He stopped and bounced once before running full pelt at the stag. Quickly the stag turned his head towards Lucus but was too stunned to run.
Lucus leaped, grabbing both sets of the antlers and flipped the stag onto its back. Winded the stag didn't move all that moved was the slow rise and fall of his chest as he drew his last breath, before Lucus stamped on his chest,breaking its ribs then pulled the antlers round breaking its neck.
He then grabbed a sharp rock and thrust it into the stags fleash and dragged it down body.
The blood looked divine as it flooded out of the stags body.
Lucus stood up beside its body and started licking his hands. Phoenix sprinted towards the deer but I was still faster like always.
I sank my cold teeth into the slightly warm stags fleash. I looked across at Phoenix who nervously crouched to the ground and finally sank his teeth into the stags fleash.
The taste was so divine, so nice,so tender. It quenched my thirst.
