Voltus stood on a ridge high above the two figures, watching them talk through the scope of his rifle, seeing the girl throw her arms around the man. The wind started to pick up and fluttered his black trenchcoat. "Father must know about this" he mumbled to himself, getting off his kneeling position and on to his feet. He dusted off the desert sand from his black trousers and proceeded to walk. A slight limp was evident with every step of his left leg, the consequence of a hollow point to the knee he sustained battling his brother when he tried to over throw their father. Pushing these thoughts aside he continued to walk along the ridge until he came to a small cave entrance, he slipped himself through and followed the downward spiral of the metal staircase build in the interior of the cave to another small opening on the other side. He emerged at ground level and could hear distant speaking, so he crouched behind the foliage and saw the two figures he'd seen before walk down the road, he remained still and silent, waiting for them to pass. He suddenly froze, not out of fear of being caught by the two travelers but by what was behind him. Deep rumbling breaths emitted at his back accompanied by warm exhalations on his cheek. He turned around slowly to see the huge beast it's fiery eyes and long, sleek catlike body coated in gray fur. A beastial. Before Voltus could react the giant feline pounced on him, sending them both flying through the bush he was squatting behind and onto the road infront of the two travellers. His hands were around it's neck forcing it's head and it's snarling jaws away from his terrified face, it's spittle launching itself from it's mouth onto his face and over his black hair. Voltus shoved his legs onto the beastial's torso and launched it over his head with all his force. It fell on to it's back with a massive thud, giving Voltus time to unsheathe his scimitar and slash it across it's neck. He stood over the dead beast panting, blood spraying from the slash across it's neck. He turned to the two travelers and said: "hey"
