Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!

fight post 3/

The lion was on it's last legs. Their joint efforts had taken its toll, it knew if it stayed any longer it might never escape at all. It didn't seem to know where to look as it's gaze darted from wolf to wolf then the gaps in between. Thus far Hattori managed to dodge all hits thrown his way but the longer they kept this up the higher the chance he'd get hurt. Given his condition he needed to avoid that at all costs, lest he draw out the healing process of his still damaged sides. With this in mind Hattori hung back a little longer, pacing as he watched and waited to see what the lion would do next.

To his surprise the lion broke into a sprint, charging towards him in an attempt to forcibly break through their line, it was going to be risky but there was just something he had to do. Just to prove his point. Hattori remained where he was, breathing deep as he counted the seconds in his mind,  judging the timing perfectly he dove out of the way though not before extending his talons out once again to rake them down the lions thigh as it fled. Even with all the blood flowing from it's various wounds it vanished off into the brush, crashing and squashing the berry bushes as it went. It was gone, the buffalo was theirs for the taking.
