Water Horsin' Around

A sigh of improbable annoyances, a snarl of frustration, Caedes launched himself from the shadows, his muscular form cutting through the air like a shadowy missile.

Bounding towards the struggling pair, Caedes closed the distance in a matter of heartbeats. With a powerful lunge, he sank his teeth into the thick, hind leg of the hippo, his jaws clamping down with a vice-like grip. The wounded creature bellowed in pain and fury, thrashing wildly in an attempt to dislodge its newfound assailant.

Only then did he notice the small form of Cadaver, that little fighter. Again, in the thick of battle. On the other hind leg. Haha.
