It was the squeal that caught his attention and jarred him out of his always busy thoughts. Without thinking much more than a 'what in the world was that?' he took off at a full run toward whoever had made such a fearful yell. His dark paws splashed through the muddy water, quickly dirtying up his legs. He didn't pay the mud any mind though, he was much more concerned about this damsel in distress. His orange gaze landed on a pale girl running in his direction, clearly having some difficulty moving with all the mud collecting around her paws. What was more concerning though was the crocodile chasing after her. His eyes widened and he hesitated for all of about five seconds before she cried out for help and solidified his decision to help.

He hurried forward, trying frantically to think of some plan of action. He was a fair bit taller than her, standing at almost his full grown height already as a yearling, making it a little easier for him to move around in the mud since he had more leg length to utilize. He sprinted over and skidded as he came up along beside her. Making a gutsy move, he quickly scooped up a paw full of the thick mud and flung it at the crocodile's face, managing to get some in its eyes. It only slowed it down for a moment, but it was enough for him to turn to the girl and say, "Come on!" before running back toward a more solid piece of ground. He stayed right beside her, nudging her along if need be and helping her through the mud till they finally managed to reach a piece of solid ground. He looked back once they were several feet from the edge of the water and saw that sometime in the chase the crocadile had given up and it was now swimming slowly back to where it had come from.

He panted as he tried to catch his breath and his warm gaze turned to look at the young girl, through he wasn't much younger than him. "Are you okay?" he asked after a moment, looking her over for any injuries.

"Talk" "You" Think
