Moonspear bear necessities

Soon after she found her rhythm, she heard the others joining her.. here and there, all trailing similarly to her to varying degrees. She wasn't alone, so chased the beast and her focus alike, running headlong to what she knew could turn south so easily. It simply had to be done, though.

When she saw the bear stop, rear up to its towering height, and roar she did not immediately notice why the sudden change of tactic but her heart sank the instant she did. Korei was here too, suddenly opposite the bear to them by some wretched manner of bad luck. The sullen girl who was only pressed further to the bottom of the totem pole of her sisters after Galaxy's fall was poorly prepared for any of this right now, Amekaze knew this, hated this.. but had to act or watch her be slaughtered. The dark alpha wouldn't waste her momentum, not even with another daughter's cries ringing in her ears, and went zeroing in for the bear's thigh teeth first.

While rending flesh on the flyby was her goal, their thick fur was not as easy to chomp through and she was reluctant to stay close for any length of time so soon. It was possibly a nuisance wound at best, but she only needed the bear's attentions for a moment. Any of it to delay Korei's inevitable demise if she didn't get moving.

As she swung by, out of reach to turn back for retaliation #2, she saw Hydra doing much the same as she had, and others were not far behind that. Together, they could potentially wear it down..

But in the split second between here and there when she pivoted back towards the bear, she saw more. Eyes wide and nostrils flared, this didn't make sense. Another pale-fur was here: another wolf, a young one..one of her own even! And she could only barely believe this was true at all. She had never seen her so shrunken.. yet, there she was? Who else? But also why else? It was impossibly worse than before, no matter how shocking--not matter the weird disbelief that clung to it either. Fuck, she almost couldn't breathe, but she surged forward off her hindlegs anyway, aiming for the bear again while wishing she could use her desperation to move her faster back on the pure offensive.

"Go!" she snarled wildly at her pale daughter as she went lunging forward. "Take Galaxy and GO!" she commanded to anyone smart enough to heed her without any questions as to why they were grabbing dead puppies before making her contact with the bear's flank. This time, she was sticking around long enough to try to dig deep. She had to create an opening for them to escape, and didn't care where they went as long as it was not here where a precious second or two could mean life or death.
