More then we bargained for

The man was madness. There had to be no sanity behind his baby blue eyes as he got to his paws, separated from her, and went charging back into the frey. Back into the arms of the largest bear she had ever seen in her life. She was certain she was going to be holding the body of her broken packwolf before the day was out. Would Manea blame her? Throw her from the frail safety of this pack?
She stood there a moment, and then leaped forward herself. Prancing just outside the bear's arms. Running support, and looking for an opportunity to distract it. Not trusting her ability to lay an actual bite and not get crushed into the earth like meaty paste. This went on for a moment, Kichi lunging in, and Seraphina attempting to buy him time to get out again. On the last attack, as Kichi tore blood from its shoulder, and Sera howled for the bear’s attention, it turned to her too quickly, smacking her with a paw that felt like the trunk of a tree and smashing her to the ground. She saw stars dancing above her eyes, and tasted blood on her tongue. Foolish. All her caution and life on the run was wasted. She panted heavily, and tried to find her paws, but the stars wouldn't shake.
All she could do was lie there weakly in the snow, and wait for the end to take her. She closed her eyes, and the world around her dimmed. The blow to her head had been nasty, and she let the darkness take her.
