 It was a scrumptious-looking mouse, that was what Tilda was thinking as she walked near the tiny, skittish animal. She was a mere two kicks away from it, the silly thing being too used to the grazers of her kind to see her as a threat. A foolish oversight, you scrumptious little morsel... She settled down, readying herself for a great leap, and watched as the mouse caught a scent, or something else, and started darting away. With a quiet curse, she shot off after it, doggedly pursuing her dinner.
Rams were never meant to pursue small creatures, and that was a lamentable fact. Her hoof got stuck in some small animal's abandoned burrow as she gave chase, and twisted the poor leg. She payed the immediate pain no heed, but stopped dead when she tripped in the self-same burrow, as her hoof got tangled in old root growth. She regarded her trapped, and injured, hoof disdainfully as she considered what to do next.
"Can't just pull it out, I'm at the wrong angle... I suppose I can try pulling... it... out... Curse it all, I'm going to have to eat grass!" Her wail was high and piteous as she regarded the simple fact - she couldn't hunt with her back leg injured as it was.

 Domino raced across the field of grass, the wind whipping through his fur enticing the male to run even faster. It was one of the things he looked forward to everyday, his daily run. In this moment nothing could touch him, no worries, no cares, just him and the wind...that is until he heard the wailing of another Wish.
Domino blinked sliding to a halt, his run cut short this day. "Hello? Is something the matter? I thought I heard a scream..." Domino called out as he began to try and figure out where the wail had originated from. After all, he wasn't about to just leave someone who might need his help, what kind of wish would he be if he did that? He wasn't Evil.
It took him a few moments before the sight of orange fur caught his eye. Moving up closer he could tell that the wish he had found was a Ram, and one whose leg was plainly trapped. He quickly jogged over. "Don't pull! It will only make things worse...here let me help, pull only when I tell you too okay?" Domino stated as he moved to the trapped leg. "You're tangled up pretty well..." Domino commented lightly as he started to dig attempting to make the hole bigger and to try and cut some of the roots, careful not to hurt the Ram any more then what was already done. Digging deeper he used both his paws to pull at the remaining roots so their grip would loosen a bit. "Okay, try pulling your leg out now," Domino stated trying hard to keep the roots back long enough for the Ram to free itself. From the looks of what he could see right now though, the leg would be injured, but it didn't look like it would suffer any permanent damage as long as it was healed properly.

Tilda froze as she caught the scent of something big, and not neccesarily herbivorous. "I'm just stuck, is all," she responded as a high, nonthreatening voice appeared. "I'm... a bit out of sorts, bu I can handle it..." She tried to back away slowly as she saw a black and white feline wish walking towards her, but sadly, she was as stuck as she had just admitted - she couldn't budge. Why, oh why, couldn't you have just left me alone? She mentally despaired, watching as the wish came closer. He was larger than her - her, a ram! A runty ram, yes, but it just wasn't right! She tried to yank her leg out, and stopped at his admonishment. Don't Pull! Why wouldn't I? She blinked sedately and let him dig around a bit, figuring that she would humor him, let him see the futility of it, and then he would leave her alone to untangle herself.
But, when he instructed her to finally try to pull free, she found herself with two hind legs on solid ground. "I... uhmm... thank you?" She said, blinking. It had been a long time since she had interacted with others, let alone a feline. "I'm sorry to have bothered you, you can be on your way now, or whatever. You can go pounce on a rabbit and eat it, or whatever you felines do." Her tone sounded bitter as she uttered the words. A bunny, just like I'll never be able to stalk, catch, and kill.
