reese's pieces, buttercup...

Natha flinched and stumbled as she landed, quickly swirling around to get a bead on the situation. She barely had a moment to catch her breath. As Jupiter busied himself with the young bear the mother dove for her. Natha leapt to the side, just narrowly avoiding the bear's fangs. Quickly pivoting she dove back in, leaping to land on the bear's right thigh. Her claws latched in deep, her fangs tearing into flesh. The mother bear roared and twisted around, giant claws aimed for the lynx's head.

Natha quickly abandoned her hold and bounced away this time aiming for the younger bear as the mother gave chase. Natha swiped at the young bear's face, claws raking across its cheeks as the mother came crashing in, unable to stop she collided with her child and nearly crushed Natha between them but the elegant feline just managed to get out of the way.
