Have You Seen My Teaddy Bear?

Their tactics, such as they were, appeared to be working as the harassed and demoralized bear was clearly not interested in continuing the fight against those odds. As the stranger pulled free and put some distance between their self and the bear, Eligos too leaped back to take a little of the immediate danger off the big bruin so it didn't feel so trapped. Cypher hesitated from his position at the bear's hindpaw, but Kida was still savaging its leg. Eligos leaped for its nose and snapped to distract it as it went to turn on the canine causing it so much pain. "Let it go!" he snarled to the malinois. "Out!"

Both dogs released immediately, sprinting out of reach. Eligos ducked a swipe from the bear and leaped back again, leaving the bear for the moment untouched. The grizzly hesitated for a moment, but Eligos - with the dogs taking their cue from him to do the same - barked and snarled, and feinted towards the bear, and the grizzly had had quite enough. It turned its stubby tail and limped away as quickly as it could, undoubtedly to go lick its wounds somewhere safer.

Eligos caught his breath, turning a baleful glance on the clearly unrepentant malinois who had dragged him into the fight to begin with, before turning his attention to the stranger. "Are you all right?" he questioned.
