Lions and Tigers and Bears, Oh My!

fight post 5/

Hattori had managed to ward off the tigers attacks but he wasn't in the clear just yet. He'd clearly taken the cat by surprise and thus bought himself some time but the clock was ticking and the longer he stayed trapped between it's legs the greater danger it posed to him. The other's- to his subdued relief- sprung on the opening he'd given them and got to work, grabbing a hold of the tiger and forcibly pulling it off of him so he had space and time to clamber back to his paws. He shook off his coat with a grunt, his side still throbbing before he leapt back into action. When it came to fighting a beast as dangerous as this there was no time to delay, every second counted. The cat was focused on the others now, it whipped around with claws slashing at the air and Hattori noticed they were slowly but surely edging away from the buffalo. The tide was shifting, they'd gained the upper paw for now.

Joining in on the tug of war Hattori went in to grab at the cats scruff from behind, hoping to slow it down before it could crash into one of the others. The cat couldn't turn around to face him given the angle but to compensate for this it kicked out with it's hind leg, meaning that it's sense of balance was compromised. If the others were half as smart as he thought they were they'd take this chance to try and band together to make it lose it's balance completely. If they knocked it to the ground with enough force surely it'd realise that they meant business.
