a laughing matter

fight post 3/3

History had a way of repeating itself with these sorts of encounters. Blood dripped from Hattori's maw as he pulled back, allowing the hyena to scamper away whilst it still had the strength to do so. His point had been made and it seemed as though the others were playing their part just as well. He could have left it there and waited for the tension to die down but there was one hyena lingering in the corner of his vision who, for one reason or another, was intent on pushing its luck. Perhaps all of this was just a game to these creatures, given their large numbers they clearly had little to fear when it came to most predators, but the same couldn't be said for this instance. If nothing they would perhaps learn that wolves were not to be messed with.

Whipping around Hattori snapped his teeth and the hyena practically leapt out of it's skin in surprise, only just managing to dodge the attack by a hairs breadth. Taking advantage of it's flightiness, Hattori broke into a charge and chased the hyena done, driving it to the edge of the basin as he had done so with the other members of the hyena clan.
