Mason kept his distance as he watched the group of canines over a corpse of another. Near them was an unconscious bear, beat and scarred from the looks of it. It seemed they had a small window of opportunity before the beast came-to. He was relying on the kill of the bear to eat on its scraps, if any were left. His stomach growled at him for the thought of meat. Raw flesh always tasted foul to him but it was always better than rat meat. He licked his lips and found himself taking one step after another, getting closer to the bear. his mind must have thought it was dead and his hungry had gotten the better of him. Then he heard a shout very close side him. One of the dogs had yelled out in a higher tone and cause him to jump. Mason shook his head and finally realized how close he was to the still breathing bear. He jumped back with a yelp but quickly crouched and lowered his ears against his head, releasing a low growl. He knew it was probably best not to show hostility near other strays but since he had, though it was towards the bear, he could not stop and show a hint of weakness. He had had to compete for food with others for most his life. He wasn't sure about this group of dogs and how tolerant they would be about him--a small orphaned pup--being there near a potential meal.
There was only one thing different though. Most of the strays he saw around the city walked and hunted alone. Not once had he seen more than one or two dog that we not related work along side together. He allowed his muscles to loosen and backed away a few steps, stopping to to see their reactions to him.
