[ The raccoon doesn't just look like prey, but smells like it too. What's strange is how it sounds, which isn't quite right. It's making human noises, the wolf can tell that much, and that might be the only thing that causes it to pause in its chase for a moment.
Or maybe there's something else too. A sense that they've somehow encountered each other before.
Then again, all that means is that the wolf had failed at hunting down the raccoon at some point in the past. That, and it's still so hungry, that hollow feeling in its belly driving it forward.
All the same, Rocket is far up in a tree, and all the wolf can do for now is jump up against the trunk, claws digging into the wood as it barks incessantly. Come down here!! ]
he will apologize for this later ...
