Somehow this very scenario reminded her of home and... her brothers specifically the two in her litter. They got a kick out of doing things like this, teaming up against larger animals and predators and fighting them. They had even saved her from an encounter with an angered grizzly. Though this man was not one of them she felt like she was traveling down memory lane. Although this wasn't memory lane and the pounding of her heart from adrenaline reminded her of that. His words barely registered as the cougar rushed fourth again and tangled head on with the male. Her eyes narrowed as he fallowed the cat's movements and she settled into a more defensive stance. Keeping her legs evenly distributed and her lips peeled back to bunch up the skin on her face.
Her eyes watched as it circled, fallowing it's movements and keeping an eye on it. It charged towards the male again and this time Elara did not just stand by she rushed forward and past Ace. Charging towards the cougar's front right. Launching off her paws with her head up and her muzzle pointed slightly downward. Smacking into the cat she was able to bite down on the back of it's neck just by the shoulder as her weight smacked the cat to the ground on it's left side. Once Elara's feet hit the ground she squatted and launched, letting go of her grip on the neck as she hopped over the cat just before it began flailing it's claws. she then dropped her front end and grabbed a hold of the back of the cat's neck again. Once she had a hold she began to shake her head back and forth.
The cat then began to roll and she quickly got to her feet and jumped back so that the cougar was now between her and Acere.
