Triton waited patiently for Macha to choose, he had done both jobs while working with Bryna and so as fine with either choice - he was however pleased that she took the time to think her answer through rather then simply snapping up whichever job sounded the most fun like youth were so very apt to do. nodding his head slightly as she choose Triton scanned the area before nodding her forward.

"Go an find yourself an ambush point, I will flank around to the side and flush them out once you are in position." He gave her a wolfy grin - ducks were fun to hunt, of course he might be biased because they happened to be the first thing he had hunted with Bryna but he didn't think anyone would complain about a hunt being boring.

Macha simply nodded her confirmation the young female now totally focused on the matter at hand and wanting so desperately to impress her teacher. She looked at Triton who seemed to be simply waiting calmly for her to make the first move thus she looked out over the scene and gauged the best place to be in hiding for when the birds were flushed her way. She looked finally at Triton who did not seemed to be giving her any directions or advice as to where would be easiest for him to flush the birds so she simply hoped her chosen location would work for him.

Silently with her belly low the the long reeds which where now near horizontal from the winters harsh weather she crept slowly out onto the marshy bank before the river. The feathers upon her back moved and swayed with the roll of her shoulders as she moved forwards giving her a strange shaped silhouette. Into position she crouched down further still and looked forwards now in line with the geese's current position and then prying her eyes from her hopeful dinner she turned to watch as Triton moved into place.

Triton watched carefully as Macha choose her position, he knew she was waiting for him to give some sort of clue as to where the best spot might be - but Triton was curious and wanted to see the spot she would choose on her own, so he left his expression blank as she choose. It was a good choice and it was clear she'd at least thought about the spot and weather it would work for him rather then just plopping herself down in any old spot.

Once macha had settled herself without disturbing the birds, Triton slipped off to the side, making a large arc around the nesting birds before creeping through the underbrush from behind them. His pace was slow..he had to get close enough to try and influence the direction of their flight after all and disturbing them to early would just send them fleeing across the water, which wouldn't do him or Macha any good at all. But Triton was the patient sort and with a bit of time and effort he'd managed to work himself into a suitable position.

Without taking his eyes from the birds, Triton flicked an ear the slight motion he hoped would be enough to let Macha know he was about to move - it wasn't like he could stand up and yell 'hey are you ready?' now was, but Macha was a bright young wolf and unless she'd gotten bored while waiting for him to inch his way forward he was pretty sure she'd still be paying attention. With a sudden rush, bark and snap Triton plunged towards the birds from a slight angle, snapping at their feet as he herded them towards the waiting Macha.

Macha lay in wait, her belly resting upon the dead and dying reeds, as she waited Triton crept painfully slowly into place. Macha's attention usually wondered if she had to wait for something to happen after so long but this was important she knew and thus she tried hard to stay focused. She watched carefully as Triton slowed further, creeping slowly forwards now and then suddenly and finally halted into place. He seemed almost transfixed on the geese in front of him and knew he was going to charge at any moment and then shuffling her paws underneath her Macha bunched her muscles and prepared to spring forwards and upwards into the air attempting to catch herself a goose.

With the briefest flick of his ear Triton sprang into action surging forwards with a fearsome bark and quick snap of his jaw. The geese took to the air, events seemed to happen at the begin like everything was moving through treacle, the geese themselves had to prepare themselves, their weight couldn't be instantly shot into the air and thus she watch as Triton advanced on them almost pouncing upon one of which was late to rise into the air and catch himself a goose without even Macha's help. Though as the birds served into what seemed like the best path of escape for them they entered into Macha's line of attack, with that time seemed to speed at double the speed and Macha barely had time to think, all her conserved energy and excitement propelled her into the air and into the direct path of one of the geese. With her jaws wide open Macha aimed to grab the bird but it was already to close, being herself a little late to jump and she battered the bird to the ground with her body.

Landing back onto the ground with a thud, there was a mad flurry of feathers and flapping wings as the goose tried to get itself from under Macha and back into the air. Macha however rolled forwards, pressing her weight onto the heavy bird and wrestled the bird's head to the ground with her fangs sunk deep into it's neck. After a few moments with Macha at first struggling to keep the bird down, getting beaten with it's wings the birds efforts subsided and finally life left it's body. Macha held it a moment longer to make sure and then released her cramp like grasp and stared down at the bird her eyes wide and then quickly she rose her head and cast her eyes about for Triton, 'I did it!'

Triton's initial leap had him nearly pouncing on the sleeping fowl before they knew what hit them, snapping at the one closest to him he was able to snatch at some tail feathers and then a leg as one of the startled birds attempted escape. While wrangling his own bird he was aware of the flying feathers and sounds of a struggle coming from Macha's location.

It wasn't until he'd gotten his under control however that he was able to look. Trotting towards her he dropped his own bird on the ground and looked at her catch. "so you did" He congratulated her in a pleased voice "And a big one too!"

Macha stared at the bird Triton dropped next to her own and then looked up at the hunting trainer eyes widening further, he had caught one too! She opened her maw but nothing came out, she was proud of herself, this was the first time she really caught anything so large but the fact Triton had also caught something somewhat took her glory away, she wanted to be able to be an adept hunter like Triton seemed to be and she vowed to herself then she'd work hard, training with Triton to become a hunter who was worth something, a value to the pack and the extended family. She nodded to herself, cementing the promise into her mind and then again looked up at Triton and smiled. 'Thank you for this.' She beamed at him and then looked down at the geese at their paws and then back up at Triton, 'I think we should share them.' plus secretly she wanted to show off a little.

She bowed her head and gathered up her catch softly into her maw and then looked up at Triton with endless black eyes, waiting for him to move first, the evenings meal dangling from her maw. She would soon discover that carrying such a large bird back to the dens would be tiring but that did not matter, excitement coursed threw her still.

"I think the others would like that" Triton commented with a warm look as Macha suggested sharing her catch. So many young wolves now a day simply spent their time looking after themselves..but here was young Macha already considering the pack. She gave him hope for the packs future beyond what he already had. There were many good adult wolves in the pack..but it was the youth that were their future and it was good to see such traits in their future.

"And you are most welcome for the hunt" He told her with a slight bob of his head "let's get started back hmm? I think we should arrive in time for you to present them dinner if we leave now" He told her before picking up his bird and moving back towards the den's. He'd let the teen take all the credit for this hunt. All youth needed the confidence such things gave them and without her certainly the hunt would not have been as successful. It wouldn't even have happened.
