Finally getting to her feet and jumping off the rock, Steeltalon said to herself, "It can't be that hard, can it?" and padded to the very edge of the bank, peering into the stream and seeing the vague zig-zag patterns the fish made as they swam lazily. They didn't seem to be very smart. The problem was, as soon as she hit the water they'd scatter. Focused intently on a particularly pale fish and thinking only of her hunger, she wasn't very alert to her surroundings at the moment.
A gray female mutant velociraptor watched the black-and-white halfbreed from the ferns a good deal away from the other side of the stream. The wind was on her side - Steeltalon would never know she was there, as long as she was quiet. Blue eyes with the depth of sapphires settled on the long scar down Steeltalon's left side. The claw on her foot twitched at the memory of tearing through that flesh with the intent to kill. Somehow, some way, the brat had survived the injury. Her eyes narrowed. Riptide would be interested to hear this. As silently as she had come, Vertigo left, and in moments there was nothing to betray she'd ever been there except for a slight scent that was quickly snatched by the breeze.
