They call me the freak of the fall

She had sent the first hyena rolling across the ground, leaves flying up in its wake. She waited a moment or two for it to get up, but it lay there stunned instead. good. She turned her attention to where the male had been standing, watching the exact moment another hyena had slammed into him and sent them both to the ground. She winced on impact. That definitely had to hurt! Probably just about as much as the hyena that she had sent to the ground just a few moments prior. The other wolf seemed to be struggling a bit, and Winter began to get herself into motion again as she headed in their direction, but within a few moments, the stranger's fox companion had grabbed onto the hyena's tail and the pair ended up in a position where the hyena was being tugged from both ends. The sight would've amused her and probably made her laugh if there wasn't another hyena to deal with.

She found it easily enough, her companions had it distracted while she and the stranger dealt with the others. She glanced once more at the one she had knocked over and found that it had managed to slink away to lick its wounds, deciding that it wasn't worth trying to fight with a much larger horned wolf. Winter raced over to the one her companions were dealing with, unsure if the stranger would appreciate it if she interfered with his current fight. If it weren't for the seriousness of fighting off these maniacal predators, she would've appreciated the beauty of the area and all the leaves that were drifting around and crunching underneath. But as it was, she would simply have to appreciate it all afterward.

Approaching the fight at hand, she jumped into the fray and butted the hindquarters of the hyena. It whirled around on her, jaws snapping at her face and catching the side of her muzzle. She snarled before aiming a well-earned slap at the hyena's head - complete with unsheathed feline claws - and sliced them over the hyena's face. It yelped with pain, backing away as it shook its head, sending blood splattering and adding to the autumn scenery.
