The sun shown down brightly on the western lands, heating the expanse of desert before it. Slowly, a dark helix crept over the heated sands. His nails dug in as he slowly made his way closer, his belly fur brushing the ground gently as he went. Infront of him, the quad-pedal serpent lay quietly upon a rock in the late afternoon sun, right in the sights oof the colorful helix's two-toned grey eyes.
Rory lifted a paw, just as the lizard turned to glance at him with glittering eyes. He'd been spotted.
It would be now or never now. His muscles tensed, just as the lizard sped across the ground. He launched himself after it, a smile on his lips as he caught up easily. Rory leapt, trapping the lizard upon his landing in his front two paws.
Dinner was served!
