Bird should have known by the scent of iron sifting through the mist, but she easily mistook it for her prey's blood, not a girl's. The doe was pregnant, very much so, and slowed by that, and Bird wasn't pregnant, but was hungry, and was made faster by that.
Both hunter and prey panted, jaws agape, as the chase wore on, the doe trapped between a rushing river she rightly wasn't sure she could cross safely, and the teeth of the wolf at her flank. Out of the mist, the deer spotted the curled up wolf nearly a half-second too late, leaping over the frame of the predator gracefully and forcing Bird to miss a snap of her teeth by a mile.
The doe kept running. The misty-furred woman, however, skid to a stop, stomach growling, defeat a stone in her belly, frustrations mounting. "Fuck." She spat, eyes still skimming the mist as if hoping the doe would turn around and come galloping back, ready to give up.
