(OOC: oooooK. It was actually going to attack Seltin...but still. Lol.)
A barking sound came from the grounded Hunters vocal chords and it looked in the direction of one of the tree's. A small screech was its response and branches and leaves swayed as the second Hunter made a bee-line for Dementa. The remainder turned around and snarled, it had been distracted by that thing and had possibly lost its prey. The claws retracted and it crouched down, shuffling along the ground, trying to keep as hidden as possible. Finally it sensed the preys pressence, CO2 was being breathed out in the Hunters direction which suggested the creature was facing towards it. The sound of eye lids pressing together seemed to suggest squinting, and the sound of quick and rapid breathing suggested that the creature was panicking...and for good reason. With the surrounding area slowly being pieced together, and the sonar the Hunter was giving off building the vicinity up piece by piece the Hunter was ready to move in...and it did. Its feet hardly touching the ground as it seemed to float towards Seltin, who was un-aware of what was about to happen to him.

Dementa was branch hopping as quickly as she could, hearing the creatures heavy breathing behind her and didn't want to hesitate too long incase it reached her, killed her and then turned back into the direction of Pyke. Leaping she grabbed hold of a tree trunk, her claws digging in as best they could, she turned her head to see a metallic object sailing through the air, bounding on branches and heading towards her. She looked up and scrambled quickly, trying to get to the top of the tree as best she could with her injuries. But the Hunter was one-step ahead of her each time and leapt vertically up through the branches that obstructed the way. Its armour clinking as it did so. Eventually halting when it was ahead of her. Dementa seemed to stop breathing for a brief second, listening to its soft purring sound which was somewhat comforting. Then she watched, watched in horror as its head slowly tilted down and looked directly at her. The featureless mask seemed to laugh at her as the artificial claws of the creature shot out. Its arms stretching out sideways, like that of a bird about to take flight it leapt downwards. For Dementa it all seemed to happen in slow motion, the Hunter' metallic body closing in on her, its sharp claws reaching for her and then...
*Slonnch*
They cut through her body, through her side and severed her ribs. She could feel her left lung puncturing and oxygen quickly seeping out. All but one of the claws of the Bounty had dug deeply into her and as it slowly desended the claws ripped through her flesh even more. Dementa gasped, trying to scream but her collapsed lung disabled this action. Finally the claws exited her body just before reaching the pelvis. The Hunter dropped and landed on a branch below, its toes wrapping around it and the claws of the toes digging into the bark to sustain balance. It watched as its victim let go of the bark and tumbled slowly down to the soil, gravity yanking her through all the branches that stood in her way. 5 large vertical wounds leading down her side two of which were the killer blow. The 6th claw could not puncture any skin and merely marked her back. But the deed was done...the enemy punished. The corpse now a corpse. Turning to were it had come from the Hunter holstered its deadly weapons, and slowly made its way back to its partner. Anticipating the next time it meets with Tobias.
