Killer in the Mirror

As the feline whirled around to face him, Rhazien bristled his pelt and rolled his shoulders forward- trying to enhance his size to intimidate the beast, while snarling and snapping his jaws to keep its attention. Of course, this gave Ely an opening- one she greedily ensnared, as she leaped forward and grabbed it by the throat. An enraged, deafening roar resonated from the tiger, causing Rhazien to pin his ears back out of reflex. Damn cat. Blood started to spill onto the earth, adding a coppery tinge to the air- one Rhazien greatly enjoyed. His tongue left his jaws, sliding across his snout and whiskers, savoring the droplets in the air. He wanted a mouthful too.

And so, as the tiger twisted to try and shake Ely off, he lunged forward. Grabbing the tiger by the left hind leg, before backpedaling with all of his weight to yank on the appendage. His serrated fangs sawed through its pelt, down to the muscle and bone- severing the vasculature, which wept blood across his eager pallet. With his assault, he hoped to keep the tiger from focusing its full attention on Elysia- as it had become their toy in a blossoming game of tug-o-war.
