Haunted Wood Out like a light

Thus far the day had been an easy one. Forced to try and take it easy because of his wounds and ankle he hadn't done more than one patrol to piss on the borders in the morning. When the commotion broke out he was gnawing on a bone heart leaping into his throat as the snarling shattered the silence. Rising up he bolted coming upon the scene he quickly surveyed and went from the side giving the felines no option but to run or fight them and die. Jaws snapping he went straight for the male his jaws closing around fur as the cat nimbly leaped back both paws lashing out in a flurry of swipes. Pain erupted across his chest and he leaped back with a shout, only in that moment seeing the child between Santiago's paws right in the way of the whirling angry feline  "Famine scram!" he shouted his stomach surging with sickening terror for the boy's life.
