Moonspear bear necessities

It pained her to see both Hydra and her mother dive for the creatures limbs — limbs that ended in lethal talons. She wanted nothing more to turn tail and run far, far from the massive beast, dragging her sisters along by by their ears if she had to. Terance was also here, though, and engaging in the fight in equal measure. While he was just as capable a warrior as Hydra and Amekaze, she still feared for him, too. She tried her best to keep each and every one of her family members in her sights as she heeded the main head of the Cerberus, taking off to where she gestured to as Alya peeled away in the opposite direction.

However, she spotted Korei still standing before the bear, defiant before such a massive beast. For a brief moment, Lyra thought she saw a glimmer of Charon within her...but then she spoke. The stutter was one of fear and the girl knew her sister would need some more coercion to get out. She rounded the bear (giving it a wide berth) and went to sprint towards her pale sibling to nudge her, bite her, anything to get her moving, before she saw what she was guarding.

More specifically, who she was guarding.

She couldn't look away from the tiny figure — the pale, thin creature who faced the bear just as Korei did. A ghost? It was the only reasoning Lyra was able to come up with for what she was seeing. Surely it couldn't be her sister, the one who had fallen from the edge of a cliff? The fall would have broken every bone in her body. Yet there she stood. Her mother's command broke her out of her trance-like stare, and Lyra snapped back to attention, glancing once to Amekaze and her two sisters who still tried to grab the bear's attention.

It gave another roar, one that Lyra ducked as if to avoid, before it spoke. It spoke. She ignored whatever it had said, too focused on trying to get both of her younger sisters out of there now. Korei had been shoved to the side; she was partially relieved the bear was no longer targeting her litter mate but she was still in the danger zone. Racing up to her, Lyra nosed her pale neck fur with an added rough nip in both a sign of affection as well as urging her to run. "Korei, you have to move!" she yelled, turning to catch another glimpse of Galaxy just to remind herself she was, in fact, not dead — though her heart dropped when she saw she was scooped in the bear's arms.
