Nova Peak i don't want pity, just a safe place to hide

Up close, she didn't have the time to be daunted by the beast as its voice made into groans and bellows was unlike anything she had heard or felt so up close. The vantage of her approach gained her some headway while the others went to work too, but she wasn't left alone to do her damages undisturbed for long--the bear caught well onto her, and with a haunting snarl, came for towards her with a mighty tidal wave of muscles and force. Opalia let the fear run its course, and knew her eyes couldn't get any bigger as all she could do was scream at her every fiber to get away.

But, with such a great mass literally bearing down on her, the room for such was few and she was forced to duck in closer to the onslaught just to try to get away from the worst of it--hopefully! On her way, she still felt claws hook her flesh on her lower back, and her maneuver to finish avoiding it pulled it towards her hips.. but she wrenched away--maybe before they could do her any worse and really send her pitching into the dirt, where the teeth could follow to finish the job and snuff her out right there. She didn't make time to consider those possibilities, either.

As she went scrambling out of reach, Opalia lost her balance anyway--but it was on her retreat and although the recovery was not graceful, she was thankfully still there to make it. When she found her feet again and felt her heart racing like nothing else, she whipped her hip around behind herself, and didn't take the time to even look at the smarting stings left behind. Later. Right now, her thoughts swam and she had to size up the bear again above the din of it all; they had to make it leave, somehow, and persistence was their best bet at this point when it seemed like everything they did cost them back in return. But, she lunged back in closer to her brother's efforts, aiming to assist.

Together, with tooth, claw, fury, and guts alike, they did what they had to do to ward off this foe. Not without consequence of their own, the wolves were determined to chase this foe from their sights, and until the bear was done with their torment here, so it would remain.
