Chimera didn't have much time between his return from the north and his departure to head back north for the raid. What time he did have, he spent on the island preparing the freshwater stream so that the women of the island could easily access it. First hed had to cut away all of the thorns that had surrounded it. The man was riddled with prick marks and his white pelt was dotted with blood. He'd been pulling weeds and placing stone around the spring to make it look nicer. Women liked nice looking things. He'd even gone so far as to plant flowers. Fucking flowers. By the time he was done, the stream had turned into a little watery oasis. They would no longer have to float barrels of water over to the island from the mainland. They were entirely self sufficient.

Having just finished his work, Chimera heard the panicked call of Aliana. Without even one negative or snarky though, Chimera pushed off, his giant body crashing through the foliage. He ran quickly, head lowered to make himself more aerodynamic and to also not clothesline himself on the vines that sometimes stretched between trees. Through the gaps in the greenery, he could see flashes of golden fur and grey fur as well. The spots gave the feline away and Chimera willed his limbs to move faster. He knew what a jaguar could do with their powerful jaws. One bite to the back of the slave woman's head and she would be dead.

Not even slowing, Chimera burst from the trees and slammed his wide chest into the cat that was atop the woman. The force of the impact ripped the jaguar away and sent both it and Chimera flying. The feline bounced across the ground, but Chi had kept his footing somehow. As soon as his paws touched down with a semblance of balance, he was on the jaguar. Luckily or unluckily, he'd trapped the cat on its back. Claws dug into his flesh as his teeth sank into the spotted beasts face and throat. The cat had powerful jaws, but it didn't have Chimera's teeth. Rows of jagged ivories lanced through the feline's flesh and soon it wasn't fighting to kill, but fighting to escape. Too little, too late. An artery had been severed and the flailing cat quickly bled out.

As usual, Chimera was bloody when he approached Aliana. Leaving the cat behind, he came to the grey woman's side. With a gentleness that was very unlike him, Chimera helped the woman to her paws and inspected her for damage. The cat hadn't killed her and hadn't managed to bite into her skull, so he assumed she would be okay, but he would ask anyway. "Are you alright?"
