It seemed that staring at the kid elicited another reward-click, causing Delta to tilt her head in anticipation. She made no attempt to spin - she didn't even move, just waited as the white light magically faded to reveal her prize. Tail lashing, she lunged forward, her teeth snapping just where the rabbit had been as it moved to avoid her sudden attack. Pleased by this hunt, she turned sharply on her feet as she utilized her giant tail as a counter-balance. Hissing, she took three steps before she caught up with the giant fluff-ball; this time, her powerful jaws snapped shut, the kicking rabbit trapped and impaled by her fearsome teeth. It shrieked, a high-pitched wail sounding from its throat as it struggled - though each movement caused its flesh to rip further from where her teeth impaled it.

Lifting her head, she opened her jaws slightly to reorient the prey, and her next crunch broke its spine in several places. Finally, it stopped screaming and thrashing, limp in her jaws in the most unnatural position. Forgetting about the child and the clicker, she placed the fresh carrion on the ground by unceremoniously opening her maw to let the lifeless drop with a dull thump. Slamming one foot on it, she re-positioned her jaws to quickly rip half its body apart. She swallowed the first half, a possessive growl in her throat before she sunk her teeth into the second half and swallowed it, too, quickly thereafter. The floor and her were covered in blood and slimy bits of entrails from her messy work, staining her off-green scales crimson. Turning back to the child, she locked onto the clicker and lunged for it.
