A bird so daring…

Claws near missed him as Akito dipped out of the way. Lowering to the sand until he near full on his belly, he wondered if the eagle would realize that the fish he wanted was right there. Yet, the feathered demon would not give him a chance to explain. Not that the beady eyed mongrel would understand the common tongue anyway.

About ready to roll over and attempt to evade the attack that way, his eyes widened as a larger chocolate blur came racing over. The sound of sand spraying through the air and the eagl-vulture-monster screeching unhappily caused Akito to stare at his older brother. Though he had never met this Tachi that his mother had told him about, he was not hard to miss.

Before he could really address whether his older brother was helping or not, talons came swooping back down. A waft of air pushed by large feathered wings near knocked him out as he tried to roll back up onto his paws. Akito was not much for dramatics or words really, but he saw no other option. “Go away!” He screeched back as he lashed out with gnashing teeth. Rolling back and forth on the sand, he tried his best to evade the sharp grasp of the enemy.
