we should stop running into each other like this

Part of Tornjak assumed Heloise would just stand to the side and let him do the dirty work. He was pleasantly surprised and relieved when she realized it was him and decided to help instead of run off. She bit at the back of the bear, causing it to rip it's paw from his grasp and swing at her halfheartedly. Her distraction was enough to allow him to shove his hind legs into the bear and push to get himself untangled and create some distance.

Grunting from the pain in his shoulder he would roll to his feet. Shaking himself briefly before the black bear was getting to it's feet and coming at him. Another roar thundered from his young jaw's as he lifted half up onto his hind feet forepaws reaching for the black bear in a less than friendly bear hug. Claws raked through fur and tugged at flesh, even as the black bear bit into his sore shoulder. A rumble vibrated in his chest as he swing his head, intent on slamming painfully into the bears own head akin to how a sledge hammer would slam into a wall. Probably not the smartest thing to do, but it was what came to his mind.
