To the Rescue!

Their luck had run out quicker than she thought. The large brute hadn’t looked like a smart creature, but suddenly Ramesh was headed straight for an ambush. It had been watching them, piecing apart their dance. It was mad and it wanted to taste wolf flesh. ”Damn it Ra-ra.” She mumbled angrily so her fear wouldn’t overwhelm her as she rushed to her brother’s aid. Thankfully she had a bit of height on him and could grab his scruff with relative ease. She hauled him away from danger with all of her might, not even feeling sympathy when he landed on his soft belly. She hoped the wind had been knocked from him for not paying more attention.

Ve dashed away when she was sure Ramesh would find his feet. She found a tall perch, noticing the manatees had moved far off, and likely would escape further pursuit by the reptile. She was breathing hard, a surprise for her. However, the adrenaline was beginning to wear off and she realized how scared she had been for her brother. ”Ra, you could have been killed.” She scolded him, hoping he wasn’t about to suggest they continue after it.
