[quote=@AkeelaQ] Leo smirked as he watched his prey. He stalked Xavier calmly, quietly, slowly getting closer. He paused a moment, before he lunged and suddenly tackled Xavier to the ground. He sniffed at him, trying to see if the boy had anything edible on his person. He was more than a little bit hungry, haVing been unable to really get a decent meal in the last few days. He'd kept being interrupted by various people and animals that barged through the forest. It was annoying honestly. [/quote] Xavier gasps as he's tackled. He blinks as the boy began sniffing him. "Hey now!" He tries to gently push Leo off, realizing how young the boy was and not wanting to hurt him. He tries to sit up. He could feel his poison pouches under him and he didn't want to adjust his weight in such a way that would pop them. Nothing would happen, but he spent weeks making that amount of poison.
