All this over some berries

Acantha bristled as the bear got up and started charging after Eska, the speckled, gray wolf taking off after the bear in return to protect her traveling companion. Long, hard strides quickly brought her up to the bear’s side and she lunged toward its face, snapping her teeth deep into it’s cheek, pulling another pained roar from the bear. It nearly yanked her off of her paws as it skidded to a halt and pulled away from her, but she let go just in time to stumble to a stop and spin to face it again, hackles raised and bloodied teeth pulled back into a snarl as she dared the bear to try anything else.
