Panther Park monsters in the shadows

His head was pounding, loud and painful, behind his skull. The large wolf knocked him away, which probably wasn't hard to do - he was feeling more and more weak by the moment. Barely even aware of what was happening, he staggered back, and teeth sank deep into the flesh of his right hind leg. The pain of it was secondary to the pain in his skull, but he still had to attempt to fight.

His teeth snapped on air - he couldn't twist far enough to bite his aggressor - and his legs wobbled. He pressed his ears back to his skull and let out a low groan, his body going numb as he dropped to the ground. 

Hide couldn't even find it in him to be embarrassed - his body was aching, his skull was splitting open, he hadn't eaten in days. This would have been the inevitable outcome of the fight, regardless.
