Alex grinned, so far so good. He liked the idea of having an Ironback for a pet, a few cons but the pros far outweighed them. He dropped two more pieces of meat and then the whole leg in a trail of meat leading to the center of the small clearing. Then he slowly grabbed his Naginata and began drawing the first circle of the rune around the area with the blade, with the intent of finishing it quickly. He gave the creature plenty of room so as not to scare it off. As he began the process he heard a loud buzzing sound steadily getting louder and a gunshot as well. It seemed like the others finding creatures as well, if he finished this quickly he could see if they needed help. Hopefully the Ironback would stay still long enough for him to complete the rune, though he had a feeling that it wouldn't be so compliant. Hope for the best and plan for the worst.
