Anaconda! The Movie Was Better.

Kione was here to fight as much as the boy needed but his primary purpose was to protect and teach.  Kids were the future and had a lot to learn in a short span of time.  Kione was never one to stay still, jogging up and down with a watchful eye on the snake but not attacking himself so long as Strix was good.

The boy bites, the snake coils, and Strix flees.  Good first attempt.  Kione ran in, leaping and bouncing as he grabbed the giants snake tail and started a tugging war match of Kione’s strength versus the snakes to reel it out more.  “a’rit laffe” the words were too muffled with a part of the snake in his mouth but it should be fine.   The message should be clear enough by looking.  There was another opening and once more the snake's attention was Kione.  The front part of the snake twisted to get to Kione even as the painted wolf danced away with that tail still in his mouth.
