Laugh it Up

Maeva was managing to make some distance between them and the hyenas, but as one made it's way towards her he allowed Resin to take out one that was heading for him and he charged towards the beast, snapping and growling at it in warning before lunging for a leg and twisting it out from under them to give Maeva a better chance at escape. Others were on his tail though, and quite literally. Once his teeth released the gnarled leg of the one assailant, he felt the teeth of the smaller predator grab his tail. A yelp was replaced with a guttural roar as he whipped around, ripping his tail from the animals mouth and shoving a shoulder hard into the hyena's own. Despite the mouthful of fur in the hyena's mouth, it yelped and retaliated by trying to grab at his face. It'd made purchase, tearing the flesh at his jaw and allowing his blood to drip down and stain both of their pelts.

Heaving himself onto his hind legs with the hyena still attached, he body slammed it into the ground with the same shoulder and broke the hyena free from his flesh, effectively injuring it enough to ward it off. His flesh hung from his jaw, but the wound was really only minor and hardly any of his concern at the moment. He stood then, his back turned to Maeva to allow her to keep loping away as he faced the last one that dared to approach him in that moment. With a nearly rabid sounding snarl, he lunged for the hyena and it ran, deciding it best not to screw with Magnus anymore. He chased it down, and being much faster than the smaller canine, he tore a rear leg out from under it and swung, tossing the mongrel onto the ground. He didn't let go though, leaving the animal to writhe in his jaws as he stared down the remaining hyenas, threatening any more to come close to him while their comrade was locked into his jaws.  

"Speech!"
