Heron Lake Plateau Let's give this bad boy a test run.

As the chaos unfolded, Colt was torn between also hovering back and protecting the pups and trying to end this as quick as possible.  When Towhee screamed, he gave a small frustrated snarl.  Couldn't have thought on that little fact before she made big words, could she?  But there was no going back now, and Elwood and Finley had the pups covered.  Best he could do would be charging the front and making the other wolves' odds seem as bad as possible.

What if there were more of them?  Screech hadn't said this was their full number, and if more support came from behind or the sides, they were pretty fucked.  "This lake better damn well be worth it," he cursed before leaping towards Redshank in an attempt to assist Raven.

edit - feel free to pp him in the fray to move things along! He's gonna try and spur Redshank into running
