Its Hard to Say Goodbye

Arc skittered back after Bream flew off and the bear started charging at them, putting some more space between him and where his father was meeting the bear head on. It felt like his fur was all standing on end, anxious and worried as he watched his dead jump up to bite the polar bear on its muzzle and nose, making it stagger back a couple of steps with a pained roar. It was so massive and loud - even its paw was bigger than he was! He glanced up at his dad as he said his name, but before he could finish saying whatever it was he was going to say the bear started charging at them again. At the very least Arc caught on to the fact that he needed to get out of the way and quickly darted away off to the side while the bear went for his dad again.

He hated feeling so useless though so as he darted away he went for the bear's huge back foot instead, leaping in quickly and sinking his fangs into its ankle. With how much smaller he was than the polar bear it probably wasn't more than a small pinpoint of pain on the huge creature, but it was at least enough to pull its attention for a moment to hopefully give his dad a little bit of an opening. He didn't hold there long, letting go and running toward one of the trees to get out of reach before the bear could fully turn toward him. He just kept willing his mom to get here over and over in his head, watching his dad with worried eyes as he fought off the massive bear.
