Second times the charm

As he rose from the body, he saw a flash of movement, and suddenly Keahi was there. Protecting his back as she attacked a hyena that had lunged for his exposed back. As she rolled with this creature, that left just one remaining. With numbers no longer on their side, he could leave Keahi’s side unprotected without worry, and he lunged at the other hyena. It turned tail to flee, and he pushed himself to catch up with it, making a grab at its back leg with his teeth and finding their mark.

At the sudden weight in his mouth, and its loss of balance, they both went tumbling. When they came to a stop, he was on top of the hyena, and it was winded and dazed. He tore out its throat with little resistance and climbed back to his feet to find Keahi had finished her own kill. These bastards would not be threatening pack wolves ever again. “Good fight Keahi, as always”
