Titus was close to home today. Not so close he figured he had to worry about being caught doing shit he shouldn't be but close enough he would be there in a heartbeat if he was needed. He could hear a commotion and his attention was piqued. The barks and brays ahead had him on egde. It sounded like something was fleeing and dogs were hunting. Sounded like a pack.
He narrowed his gaze as he crested a hill with massive bones about. His eyes fell on the scene and he had to dart quickly to his left to avoid it. A... Unicorn? The fuck? Being chased by painted dogs? Shit guess he should help the creature. If they were anything like the ones in his stories they'd grant him a wish! He shook himself and grinned at the unique opportunity. His feet propelling him forward and directly into a dog and the path of all the dogs. A snarl ripped from him and his tackle and subsequent sending the dog rolling made it yelp and the other three turn on him. That unicorn was gonna be all his! He would make it serve his baby sister!

Spriggan knew that if she followed her brother Titus then she would find him having some sort of fun. While she wasn't a big breaker of the rules, whatever her brother was doing was usually fun. Her tiny paws pattered after him, eagerly exploring the huge bones and ancient beasts that fell here. When she heard the same commotion that had drawn Titus forward.
Her blue and lavender eyes found an astonishing sight. A pack of wild dogs were harassing what she could only describe as a unicorn. He was pure white, with pink skin, a brilliant mother of pearl horn upon his forehead and a long lion like tail. Already Titus was racing towards the dogs to attack them. She and her brother were of the same mind and the tiny girl raced forward as well.
She had to be incredibly careful, with her smaller size she was in great danger. Still, she was also of incredible speed and nipped aggressively at their heels and sprinting away to avoid injury.

He was tangoing with the dogs when suddenly there was a tiny white ball of piss and vinegar harrying the dog's heels and darting away. Shit. Sprig shouldn't be here! Not when he was fighting something. He swapped from protecting the unicorn mode to the now defend his sister personality he had adopted. Eyes narrowed and his shoulders rolled before launching at another of the dogs. "Over here uglies!" His chest collided with another and his teeth sank into the side of the dog's neck while the dog bit into his shoulder. Another launching at his backside. Teeth sinking into his hip and haunch area had him his but he just bit down harder. Like hell he was going to let them go after Sprig. Only issue was he didn't know what the other two dogs were doing.

Spriggan wasn’t an expert on the psychology of cape hunting dogs, but she knew they were a lot like wolves. They even had a better hunting success rate than wolves did. Which made their intervention even more dire. If the tiny unicorn donkey, for he had long soft ears pinned against his skull, had any friends they were long gone by now.
When Titus spied her, he seemed to put his head down and fight even harder. He took all the attention on himself, bringing him much pain and injuries. "Watch out, Titus!” She yelled with concern as she skittered away from one of the dog’s jaws. As she worried that her brother would succumb, the creature they were trying to save to begin with joined the fray and speared one of the dogs with its sharp horn. As it yelped in panic that seemed to alert the rest of the pack, who seemed far less eager to continue their hunt with one of them so wounded.

He didn't care anymore how much damage he took, didn't care that his hip was bleeding. Just that the wild dog's went for him instead of his baby sister. She shouldn't be here he felt. His sister's voice only egged him on. Jaws sunk further into the one he had a hold on. Claws raked down the sides of the dog. They had picked a bad fight today it seemed. A yelp signified the fourth he couldn't see getting speared. The one on his hip released him in favor of its friend but Titus wasn't releasing the one he had.
His head started thrashing and shaking doing his level best to slay the dog in his jaws. A puppy tooth dislodging into the dog, creating the flow of blood that made the scene likely look worse than it was. His nostrils flared. The moment the dog was limp he released it, turning fire eyes for the next. But settling on Sprig. He had a slur of words for his sister. She seemed content following him into danger. "You can't keep following me into danger like that Sprig. Especially not if you don't have self defense training....." There was the catch. She would need trained. A sigh.
The dogs were gone now and he looked at the unicorn. "Before you even speak, if you can unicorn, you can start paying me back for getting those dogs off your hide by enlisting your magic and services to my sister. If she insists on being in danger then I want her to have someone to help her." His eyes cast back to sprig after he. A breath taken before he settled on his side, inviting her to work her healing skills on his hip. "Let's start with the defenses. Tell me what you think is important Sprig." He wasn't leaving room for argument. He wiped at his lip trying to clear the blood from his lost tooth.

Spriggan wasn’t aiming to kill, no for one there was little chance she could and second they would attain the same results by chasing them off. It wasn’t like they were defending the border of the hallows anyway. As long as they managed to save the creature’s life, that was the real goal. Sprig leapt away, avoiding another round of jaws as the pack decided their casualties were too high. To Sprig’s surprise, two were left dead. The one that the horned equine was unsheathing his horn from, and one that might still be alive in her brother’s jaws.
"You didn’t have to kill it.” She chastized gently as she did a little twirl to show Titus she was completely unharmed. "I can take care of myself.” She retorted as he scolded her. "You can’t tell me what to do anyhow.” She mumbled as his attention turned to the unicorn. He told it in repayment for its life, that it would need to serve and protect Spriggan.
There was an intelligence within its eyes that said it understood. She didn’t know if it was because it chose to, or because it was mute, but it lowered its soft white ears against its head and nodded in agreement. Walking up to Spriggan dutifully. The tiny girl could not say she wasn’t thrilled, but she tried to tone down her enthusiasm while her brother was still miffed at her.
She hid the way she rolled her eyes as, serious as ever, Titus did indeed mean to sit her down for a lesson. Sprig couldn’t deny that he was more well versed in battle than she was so, leaning into the unicorn’s legs she looked up expectantly. "Not getting injured.” She replied flatly, trying to refrain from pointing at his obvious injuries.

Sprig gave a statement on his treatment of the dog and he gave a small snort. "And let them live to kill someone like you? Yeah I'm good. Feels like I'm protecting someone better this way." sprig should know how precious, how fragile she was. Titus wasn't stupid enough not to believe she was the only one either. And her other words gave him a smirk. "Your right I can't, but I will. And I would be happier to know you were following me or at least knew how to defend yourself properly."
Was he actually mad? No. She didn't know that the thought of her getting hurt scared the shit out of him. His gaze watched the unicorn now join his sister. Good. She'd have a little muscle that way. He wouldn't have to be as scared for her, but he was still.
Her answer brought a loud laugh to him. A look to Nikolai as he came and settled by his side. The wolverine was a key to his fights sometimes. "Fighting and getting hurt go hand in hand. Your defenses are what will help limit the injuries Sprig." a smirk and a adjusting of his hip. Pain had started to settle in but he would grin and bear it, even when it scarred over. He'd wear this one with pride. "Alright I guess we start at the basics. Bodily defenses. That fur on your neck and shoulders there, its able to be tensed with ur muscles and make it harder to bite your skin. And your gonna wanna scrunch your face up to keep yourself from getting blood in your eyes and to make it so your teeth don't bite your own lips. Following?" he knew she probably knew but he figured it was a good idea to make them verbally known.

The tiny girl was much more tender hearted than her brother, the dogs only wanted an easy meal. Not to kill anyone, they had attacked the pack after all and didn’t deserve their doom, but Spriggan wouldn’t argue any further. Her brother was too set in his way for her opinion to change anything. He reiterated how he would much prefer she knew how to defend herself. "You sound too much like the grown ups.” She told him as she rolled her eyes. He should have been worrying about himself instead of her. Going off and taking on a whole pack of wild dogs, how much more foolish was that?
He did seem to agree with her though as he chuckled as she pointed out the difference in their outcomes. Even the unicorn shook his head in amusement as it lashed its long lion-like tail at its haunches. He was determined to school her though so Spriggan gave him her attention, no matter how unnecessary she thought it was. "I think my paws are what kept me from getting hurt this time.” Yeah he wanted to teach her, but she wasn’t going to make it that easy on him.
Titus explained her scruff, and mentioned her lips but the girl felt like that was just common sense. He really didn’t have any faith in her did he? "But what if I want to bite my lip and get blood in my eyes?” She asked with complete innocence despite being a complete little shit.
