Nothing like a raid to get your blood flowing

Vindr's well-timed save came at just the moment Saracyn needed it, his raptor doing his job of distracting the golden wolf enough for Sara to press forward and find the momentum he needed. He did not notice the pangolin hiding in the other wolf's fluffy mane until he heard the scuffle above his head, seeing the weird armored rat thing beating off Vindr with a surprising amount of might. To his bird's credit, Vindr did not back off either, screeching and clawing back at the pangolin's little claws in a fierce battle of their own. It didn't matter though. Sara was able to get beneath the other dire, throwing him back exactly as he hoped. But what he hadn't expected was to feel the scrabble of claws raking along the sides of his leather harness. Several times the other brute failed to find purchase in his skin thanks to his armor, but just as Saracyn gave a growl and shoved forward with all his might, the golden wolf's claws hooked under the edge of his armor, and Saracyn felt himself being yanked to the side.

Gravity shifted. He tried to brace his legs, but it was too late. His opponent's weight moved with his momentum, and Sara was pulled off of his paws, both dire brutes going toppling over one another to the ground. His shoulder hit the dirt and grass with a grunt, but the prince was otherwise mostly unharmed. He was, however, still grappling with his opponent on the ground now. Shifting about as quick as he could, Sara curled himself up to bring his powerful hind legs up between him and the other brute, kicking forward aimed at his foe's stomach with all his might. His intent was to kick the other wolf off of him, and if he could, he would roll back to his paws and make that final lunge to pin the Valtan wolf down and out.
