Bear With Me

Athena is out patrolling the island, the sun warm on her earthen pelt. The warming weather has brought the animals out in full force and that includes predators. Since chasing the tigress off with Albion, Athena has noticed a marked increase in predators swimming over to the island. Like that grizzly bear for example. Amber eyes catch sight of a large bear lumbering out of the water. Oh, hell no! Not on their island! Letting out a short call for help, the earthen wolf charges the large bear.

Luckily, it has stopped to shake the water from its coat and Athena is able to leap up toward its face without incident. Teeth grab hold of its muzzle and the wolf lets gravity do its work. As she is pulled back to the ground, the bear throws its head back in rage, both acts ripping deep bloody wounds into the soft tissue. A paw swings toward her and Athena has to tuck and roll to avoid the deadly claws. Springing back to her paws, the earthen woman readies to charge the angry bear again.
