I'll jump from the cliff and I'll build my wings on the way down
Henry felt Noah's frustration, but not until after he felt the crushing of feathers beneath his talons. He surges forth, not to let the turkey escape from his snagging feet and snapping beak. His own anger pulses out, something he's vaguely aware of, as he takes it out on this defenseless animal. It's not quick, it's not painless, but he executes the prey beneath him, spurred on by its gurgled cries and fighting. His weight is used to crush it into the mud and a fierce sound leaves his mouth as he crushes its neck until its movements cease. A mess of bloody feathers cover his own.
Its only as the thrill of the hunt ebbs and flows out of his racing heart that he realizes what he's done, what he's let go off and taken out on the animal that lays limp and torn on the ground. Thunder echoes across the clouds and his neck twists to watch as lightning flashes.
With a calmer heart, Henry blinks over at Noah. He has nothing to say for himself, feeling equal parts disconcerted and contrite. Still, he can't help the apology that forms into words in the bond. I'm... I didn't mean to lose control like that...
