Snippet #2619564

Malakite lead them father away from the kill area constantly watchful to see if the animal had followed them. He didn't think it would since it wanted to eat. Charge them maybe to get them away from the kill, but this far away, they should be fine now. He sighed softly when he felt that they were safe from any immediately danger from the bear. He really didn't want to have to fight with it. If he did manage to kill the bear it could have serious repercussions in the future. The couldn't do anything that could disrupt the timeline. Just being here and going after the wolf was risky business. He knew this was to save the future but what if it turned out wrong? He shook his head. Orders were orders and his superiors would know more about this than him. It wasn't right for him to question them. He was just a soldier.

Malakite turned to Tev then and looked him over to ensure he wasn't injured then. "Are you all right?" he asked, in case there was something he couldn't see. "I am sorry I failed to bring in the wolf. I should have moved quicker when I saw it prepare to flee. We can continue to follow its tracks and I'll make sure to bring it down next time. I know failure cannot be an options." He knew the human was never going to let him forget his failure. Would he include it in the report? He didn't want to be called a failure and than 'erased' from the unit. This was his only purpose. "Are you ready to continue tracking the wolf?"
