==Battle==
In a North American forest, a stoat chased a rabbit, seizing it by the neck then killing it with a powerful crunch.
The stoat's keen senses noticed a bush rustling, and a skunk-like creature emerged. The stoat growled defending it's kill and the Zorilla raised it's tail as a warning. The stoat felt something telling him to back off. The stoat started to retreat and the polecat walked up to the dead rabbit, right then, the stoat lunged and caught the polecat unawares, and the force of it sent both to the ground. The stoat had his jaws clamped around the polecat's neck, while the polecat desperately clawed at the stoat.
The polecat managed to squirm free of the stoat's grip, and the stoat, not thinking in the heat of battle, lunged again. That was a fatal mistake. The polecat, ready for the stoat this time, sprayed the stoat directly in the face. The stoat's eyes burned and he smelt a musky odor, then was pinned to ground by the polecat and with one powerful twist, had his neck snapped.
