Under the cover of winter snow, an intruder breaks into the [[Switchfang]]s burrow. Undulating side to side, shifting the dirt with a fusiform tip, the intruder follows the strong scents and the slightest of shifting motions. A youngling squeaks in alarm, but it is far too late as it is pulled out of its burrow, hard wooden spikes digging into its flash.
Within a thriving nest of [[
Up in the forest canopy, an Ikasaru picks up the vibrations of rustling between the branches. Following the source, the [[Ikasaru]]'s eyestalks rest on the sight of a serpentine form, a long wormy figure with stretchy green skin between 4 rows of chambered wooden cuticles, expanding into a thick bulbous head at its tip, ending with a toothy oral cone. It has not yet noticed the Ikasaru, there's a blindness to its motion as it seeks the source of the scent, tasting the air within cracks along the cuticles. Its motion seems graceful, 4 long sets of muscles stretch between hardened blood-filled chambers for support, appearing almost like a graceful neck. But that illusion quickly breaks, as It is that very same blindness that makes it blind to the Ikasaru's camouflage, and as it zeros in on its prey, its motions become sharp and jerky, shifting from using blood-filled chambers as support for pull muscles to flooding different chambers to form the pushing force behind of the motion, it appears to advance towards its target in epileptic spasms. It just about misses, and the Ikasaru manages to crawl away, only to find itself captured by the oral ring of another. The two take joy in sharing the meal, they feast and play with it, one swallows it from its tail while the other bites off the limbs and eyes.
