A sound, a motion, a fleeting glimpse-- that was all that was needed for this patiently waiting observer. Flashing a toothy grin of achievement, a grin that screamed ill intentions as it vanished as soon as it appeared in the half-light of a lamppost. Moving with purpose and the aura of one on a mission, the shady silhouette trailed quietly. Careful to stick to the security of the dreary shadows, phase one of his plan had gone off without a hitch and now phase two was just about to begin.
Twitching lightly at the chill of rain droplets, dampening the furry ears that stood at attention and honed on the path before him. Working in sync with eyes that so intently staring ahead, obviously fixated on the one he followed. Not once entertaining the petty thought of losing sight of this opposing player of his little game, even if said player was unbeknownst to this game they were partaking in.
But that was just a minor setback, it would all be clear soon enough. Not if this thieving Wolfkin had anything to bark about. Too much precise planning and preparation was put into all this, and he wasn't about to be foiled by some stupid, little details that held no support or consequence. That just wasn't how Jethro played out his handiwork.
With a flick of his tail, Jethro pursued, cautious not to make too much noise as his boots sloshed through murky puddles, sticking to the darker areas as best as he could, and avoid all and anything that could give him away. Then again... where was the fun in remaining in hiding all the time? None, that's what and once more, that's not how this nefarious Wolfkin rolled.
Faltering abruptly, hugging closer to the wall as to submerge himself in the darkness, hunching forward so his palms planted themselves securely on his knees. Ears twitching and eyes narrowing, watching and waiting for what could have possible deterred the other from proceeding forward. Taking a single, creeping step forward as to get a better viewing position, only then did Jethro froze in place and emitted a muffled hum of confusion.
Ears perking up, raising a brow at a soft, ruffling sound that issued forth out of seemingly nowhere until the tip-tapping of rain, instantly piecing together the other's wary behavior upon his own little discovery. Somehow at some point a small piece of trash had gotten lodged into the heel of his shoe, more or less causing unnecessary noise and most certainly was the culprit of his near-unveiling. Of course, Jethro was just about to make his grand entrance, but he wanted to do that in his own flashy way and not by some reckless piece of debris that got stuck to his heel.
That's not a memorable first impression... Not at all. So upon that little mystery solved and fixed, he returned his undying attention to the one he was following.
A crooked smirk dancing on his lips, this was without a shadow of a doubt going to be a night to remember.
"Not a very laid-back fella, are ya?" he questioned coolly from his hiding place. Rolling his shoulders as he concealed his hands within his pants pockets, tail leisurely swaying side to side as he without a second thought stepped out of the darkness and into what little light there was. Taking large, confident steps with a stride that was a little to springy for one that was soaked to the bone. Face displaying a faint, cunning grin that was well matched with the gleam in his eyes.
"Oh come now, why the long face?" he crooned, puckering out his bottom lip in a pout, having at some point turned to walk backwards so he could continue to watch the other, moving in an almost vulture-like circling. "Is the big wolfy of justice afraid to get his paws wet?"
