hero time? ugh.

He knew he couldn't go head-to-head with the cat. The little girl was there, and she would be in harm's way if he tried. Tora rounded the beast, wishing he had long claws like a feline to easily swipe at the flank. He went a bit more aggressive. The boy launched himself at the side of the tiger, rising to crash his front paws onto the beast's back. It gave a snarl at his efforts but still refused to drop its prize. Let her go! he screamed in his mind, effectively digging his jaws in a meaty portion of the back.

That really got the tiger roaring.

It dropped the girl, crying out in pain and spinning to strike at Tora. He felt claws rank his cheek, tearing flesh and fur. He growled too, biting further down on the spine before he let go. The cat decided to attack again in retribution but Tora was ready. He ducked and went for the feline's throat, biting there and holding the larger beast. He wasn't as big as some guys out there, but he could be agile if wanted. It was probably strange for anyone looking on that he was taking on a creature that looked like him.
