Double The Trouble, Double The Fun!

The boys race down to the beach, laughter filling the air as they go. Once they hit the water, Strix splashes his brother and Orthrus cheerfully calls him silly. A lopsided grin appears on the boy’s lips as he sticks his tongue out at his brother before his mismatched eyes catch sight of a lion. They are Chimera’s sons and never pass up a chance to chase away any predators that find themselves on their shore. They charge in toward the large feline, the smaller Strix preferring to catch the lion’s attention and keep it on him so his taller brother can attack it.
Strix rushes in, snarling and snapping at the large cat and it quickly rounds on the small annoyance while hissing. A large paw swats after the fast boy, finding nothing by air. Orthrus is silent, sneaking up behind the distracted lion to land a bite on its flank. The lion roars in anger, turning to strike at Orthrus but Strix is already rushing back in to regain its ire. He leaps up, biting into the soft cheek near the cat’s eye. Releasing his hold quickly, the boy races away from the paw swings after him.
