Careful Where You Tread

The tiger turned her way, and for a moment she thought it was going to take a leap at where she stood upon the fallen log, but just as quickly the wolf took the open opportunity to get a sneaky attack in. The feline yowled, swiping at the wolf with one of its large paws, and Inoki took that as her cue. She hopped down from her position and darted around the back of the tiger, hoping it would continue to be preoccupied with the wolf currently grabbing at its throat.

When she got behind it, she wasted no time in taking a running leap, landing on the tiger's back with a low snarl. Her claws dug into its thick fur for purchase, trying to balance on top of the writhing feline without falling off. A second later she made to grab at the skin just under its left ear where it met the side of its chin, biting down with all the force she could muster and roughly shaking her head. Inoki wanted to try and rip and tear at the skin, to at the very least keep it distracted so the other wolf could either go for a killing blow, or show the feline that it was clearly outmatched and chase it off.
