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

In barely a heartbeat, it was on. The bear charged for the four of them with concerning malice, aiming mainly for Kiwi it seemed. Wordlessly, Opalia sprung into motion when it neared. Most of all, she tried to key into her brother's movements, and mirror them when she should, and compliment when she could--she already assumed they were the most experienced out of the mismatched group assembled since she didn't think highly enough of Kiwi and her tagalong, however, a bear was not a foe they knew best how to handle firsthand.

But she did know bigger opponents, and ones far more experienced than her. When in doubt, she decided this might be like that, only scaled up to eleven, with the claws much more dangerous, and the hide much thicker.. and there was about to be time to learn about that firsthand.

When the forces met, she saw Kiwi aiming for a front leg and she went wide towards the side her brother did not approach but kept going to approach from the rear. The tan wolf didn't fare well, but by then, Opalia was committed to her own charge for the bear's hindleg-haunch area so she didn't see the details of it play out really. Either way, she focused on trying to bite past the dense fur down to the flesh--yet, she knew better than to stay too close, and swung back to do it again from behind, just somewhere slightly different if she could.
