Shit shit shit shit! The black bear was on his tail now, but Zagan wasn't ready to meet his maker. He raced across the ground, paws drumming it hard and fast as he sought to find a new escape route. He hadn't completely thought this through...but at least his brother was safe. That was what mattered right? Panting from the effort of running faster than he ever thought possible, he could hear the paws of the larger beast drumming on the ground behind him. Ears flicked back when he heard his brother yell and try to gain the attention of the bear, sparing a glance over his shoulder when he realized the bear didn't even give his brother a second look. Fear started to course through him now, and when the bear swiped out at him, he felt the wind of its claws flash near his hind legs as the boy scooted his rump as far ahead as he could, though it nearly caused him to fall. Luckily he didn't, because he wasn't keen on becoming someone else's lunch today. Adrenaline course through him, heart pounding wildly against his chest.

He heard Iroh yell at the bear again, and this time his brother had managed to get the bear off his tail. He didn't know what they were going to do. Maybe it would get tired of chasing them around and it would go away, but he had a feeling it wouldn't be that easy. When the bear veered away to go after his brother, Zagan slowed down a bit but not enough to really catch his breath - as much as he would have liked to do that, his brother was still in danger. Narrowing his eyes and baring pearly white fangs, he doubled back and gave chase. He summoned a growl, muscles burning with the effort of running so hard and fast, but he refused to let the bear have his brother for lunch, too. The lumbering beast roared and lunged for his brother, but Zagan lunged too. He grabbed the bears hind paw in his mouth and yanked his head back as he tried to stop the bear completely. It didn't completely work, however. He was dragged several feet even with all of his weight trying to counter the bear, it didn't seem to be enough. Frustrated, his gaze darted up for a moment and a sick but determined feeling washed over him. He was going to have to fight dirty in order to save his brother...so as quickly as he could, he let go of the bear and put on a final burst of speed until he was practically running right under the bears butt.

He leaped upward, jaws aimed directly for the black bears balls and the moment he felt fur and...other things, he snapped his jaws shut and let his weight drop until he was nothing more than dead weight. The bear roared with pain, turning and twisting to get him off, but Zagan refused to let go for now. The bear dragged him around in circles, and when Zagan felt like he could no longer hold on, he let go and went rolling across the ground. Dazed, he stumbled to his paws and watched as the bear howled in pain and took off back to the hell it had come from. Panting hard, he spat out fur and debris from the bear before swiping his tongue across his teeth, all with a disgusted look contorting his face. "Blech! I can't believe I just did that!"
