Ulyssia

Beast Hunting (Pt. 1)

Another day, another intense training session. Ulyssia was set on becoming head of her college, and even stronger than she'd been before. That meant that the werewolf would have to stick to a consistent routien. Today, Ulyssia and Jasper prepared for the most difficult training so far. The objective was straightforward: work together to bring down some creature that was hiding in the woods, a quest that would prove to be good training after a week of pushing each other beyond their limits. But this beast no ordinary beast, a monstrous brute of brute strength with razor-sharp claws lurked out there. Ulyssia had heard it prowling near the eastern edge of the forest, and now she and Jasper were ready to track it down to see just how strong their bond really was.

She tugged at her leather bracers, her eyes fixed in a firm stare at Jasper, her unbending white wolf companion. His blue eyes met her emerald ones, shining bright with the willpower to conquer today's task. Neither of them was able to speak words to the other, they'd developed a silent language of gestures, glances, and subtle movements. They knew each other better than anyone else had known them, and they were going to need every ounce of that understanding if they were going to have even the remotest chance against this beast.

"Alright, let us find this creature," she muttered, patting his side. A low eager growl was Jasper's reply, and in another instant, he launched himself forward at a hop, nose pressed to the ground as he sniffed for the creature's scent.

The only sounds were the amplified rustling and whispering of leaves as they moved deeper into the forest. Ulyssia hung close, stepping lightly while her eyes scanned the trees for a sign of their target. It wasn't long before she saw the first sign: great claw marks gouged into the trunk of a tree, each at least as thick as her wrist.

She knelt, peering into the deep grooves. "This beast is huge," she muttered. Jasper snuffed at the ground, nose twitching as he picked up the creature's scent. He nodded and padded forward, his silent efficiency guiding her deeper into the forest. She followed him, every sense alert, her hand resting lightly on the edge of her spears blade. It wasn't a very good quality weapon, but it would get the job done.

They moved as one, Jasper forging the path, Ulyssia just a few steps behind him. The smell was getting stronger, musky, earthy, lingering within the air. The Dharga werewolf knew they were getting close. Her pulse quickened and she whistled low to signal to Jasper. She was reminding him to be careful. The beast was just up ahead.

A huge shadow moved below-a hulking shape that prowled between the trees. It was even bigger than she'd expected, with its bulk draped in matted fur and patches of rough, scaly skin. It had the look of something adapted to survive countless battles: its thick muscles rippled as it moved. Sharp tusks jutted from its lower jaw, and its claws shone wickedly, catching the morning light as it lumbered through the forest.

Ulyssia took a deep breath, steeling herself for what was to come. They were going to have to be cagey about this-one slip, and it would be them on the business end of those claws. She turned to Jasper who was already crouching low, his eyes narrowed in concentration. She could almost feel his excitement mixed with tension, both of them ready to let their skills fly.

A hand signal passed-a small gesture, done and redone until instinct. Jasper's ears flickered forward as he received her meaning: they'd skirt the monster, each of them approaching from a different angle; she was the distraction, drawing its attention while Jasper moved in to strike from behind.

She had stepped on a brittle twig while creeping forward, and it snapped loudly beneath her foot. In an instant, the creature's head whipped around and it's yellow eyes locked onto her. With fangs bared, it let out a guttural roar that rattled through her bones. It was then it charged at her, before she even saw it coming.

Ulyssia sprang back, narrowly avoiding its outstretched claws. Still, she backpedaled, keeping her movements measured yet quickening her pace, drawing it further from Jasper's position. Her heart racing, she dodged a swing from the beast's huge paw; the wind of the swipe caressed her face as she ducked low. She rolled to the side, giving Jasper time to close the distance.

Jasper sprang forward and his body moved behind the creature with silent urgency. When he was in the right position, The snowfang wolf leaped forward with his sharp fangs deeply sinking into the back of the creature's leg. The beast bellowed loudly, twisting to face this new threat. Jasper let go and sprang backward quicker than lightning, staying out of reach. Ulyssia took the opening presented her, diving in with her spear aimed at the beast's exposed flank.

Her spear struck true, plunging deep into its side. The creature howled and immediately began whipping back toward her, its eyes burning with fury. She jerked the spear free, sidestepping another vicious swipe-this time in a blind attempt to take her down with brute force. This wasn't going to be easy; it was stronger and angrier now, and both would have to keep on their toes if they didn't want serious injury.

The beast charged once more, but in came Jasper this time, jumping to nip at its foreleg before darting out of range again, too fast for retaliation. They worked perfectly together, their movements synchronized as if choreographed. Ulyssia used every opening Jasper created, landing hit after hit with her spear, nibbling the creature down slowly.

But the beast was far from through. With a snarl, it twisted and lashed out with a massive paw, catching Ulyssia across the shoulder. She grunted in pain--the impact knocking her back as her vision blurred for a second. Then, the Hailstar steadied herself, ignoring the sharp ache as she prepared for its next attack. Jasper growled, sensing her struggle, and he darted forward with a renewed fury, his teeth sinking into the creature's thick neck.

The creature bucked wildly, but Jasper held firm, his jaws locked in a tight, unyielding strength. Ulyssia saw her chance and plunged, driving her spear deep into the creature's chest with every ounce of force she could avail. It punctured deep, and she twisted it, feeling the resistance give as the beast let out a final, shuddering roar.

Ulyssia whispered a silent prayer with her eyes shut, hoping that the spirits would guide its soul unto their plane of existence. Unlike humans, beasts were simply acting as they were made to. It wasn't this creature's fault that it had to be slain. Suddenly, tt fell with a crash, the huge body going slack beneath them. Jasper let go and fell back, his fur speckled with blood as he retreated heavily panting. The werewolf stumbled on her feet, her exhaustion finally catching up with her as she tugged her spear free, her shaking muscles from the strain threatening to let go of the shaft.

The two of them stood there, catching their breath as the silence of the forest fell around them. Ulyssia looked down at Jasper, a smile breaking through her fatigue as she reached out to scratch his ears.

"Well," she said, panting. "That was… fun." Jasper gave a small, satisfied huff, his blue eyes gleaming with pride. They spent a few minutes catching their breath, basking in the well-fought victory. This fight had tested them on everything: strength, strategy, trust, and communication. It had pushed them to the limits and forced them to depend fully on each other. And they'd come out on top-together.

"Alright," she said, slinging her spear over her shoulder as she glanced back toward the path home. "Time to get back and clean up. We have earned a break."
