Be Prepared [Cairo]

Dómari held fast until at lasted the lion stopped struggling and fell prey to Cairo's fangs. He released his grip and stumbled back, assessing his wounds for a moment before a statement from Cairo caught his attention. He looked behind him and saw a much bigger lion headed right towards them. This one didn't seem to be outwardly sick like the scrawnier lion but there was something cruel about its gaze, something twisted that made his veins feel like they were full of ice. This was the sort of lion that would take the bulk of a meal while his ailing brother starved, this was the sort of lion who would happily kill a lionesses cubs so she'd breed with them. This was the sort of lion who was going to murder him and Cairo with barely a thought spared for the deed.

Dómari dove to the side, managing to avoid the lions fangs but not his paws. A mighty swipe struck his left hind leg leaving punctures and sending him tumbling to the side.
