I am magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
Umbra could not hear the cat beneath the waves, but Seren stepped in and conveyed the message to the hatchling. Breaching the surface with his head, the Blue gave the Attuned a look of mild annoyance, but complied with surprising ease. Down it went, wings tucked close to the scaled sides, and the fish fled in terror of his shadowed approach. Fled, and fled, and fell right into the trap as they once more were turned around and made to swim straight towards the shore, and the waiting hunter.
This time, the dragon was not content with merely waiting for someone else to do the job. When the prey had no more space to flee, he too snapped sharp-toothed jaws at a shimmering body and managed to catch a small minnow by the tail. On the shore, Seren whooped with glee at his success, and waited with bated breath to see how the panther would fare. It itched in her to join in, but at this point she would only be in the way. And besides, she was not so hungry that raw fish sounded the least bit appealing. Her lunch could wait.
