The mountain lion roared once more, saliva dripped from it's large mouth, the fangs were white, curved, and sharp enough to pierce a wolf's eye through into the brain. The mountain lion then shifted it's gray eyes around the group, picking out it's next prey. The group were all fearing the large animal in front of them, even Garth himself.
"What do we do?" Katelyn asked in a more whispered tone, mainly towards Sebastian. "I don't know, I've never dealt with something with like this before!" Sebastian said with his ears down against his skull and his eyes completely on the movement of the lion.
"I'm scared!" Lilly said as she shifted next to Garth, pressing her whole body against his, poking only her right eye out from behind his right arm. Garth could feel his mate shaking in fear, so he moved so that his body was completely covering her in front of the mountain lion.
"What you do everyone, don't make any sudden movements. It'll make it more angry and chase us!" Kate said as she slowly, took one paw as a time backwards, making it look as though she wasn't moving at all. The mountain lion then lowered it's head and bared its fangs as it watched Kate and Humphrey back away along with everyone else.
But as they all backed away, Humphrey didn't seem to notice a small, 2 foot long snake slithering out of a bush, quietly moving toward Humphrey's right hind leg. The mountain lion then slowly walked towards the wolves, not before Humphrey spoke. "Barf, now's not the time to be messing with me!" Humphrey said whispering loudly through his teeth. Garth looked at him in confusion. "I'm over here Coyote, how am I touching if I'm here?" Garth responded back with a glare at him.
Humphrey squinted his eyes, not knowing what was going on, until he felt more movement on his hind legs. He looked to see one of the many things that he feared as a pup, the 2 foot long snake beginning to wrap itself around his leg. Humphrey almost screamed but closed his own mouth, until the snake then hissed, showing it's fangs. Humphrey lost it.
"SNAKE! snake! Snake!" Humphrey said as he beginning jumping around and wiggling his hind leg and wiggling out the snake off his leg as everyone stopped in their tracks and saw the snake on Humphrey's leg but also scared now that Humphrey has brought more attention to himself from the mountain lion.
Humphrey then grabbed the snake with both his paws and threw it straight at the Lion, landing right on it's face, mainly on it's eyes.
"Run!" Kate yelled as she tool off, pulling Humphrey by his shoulder, then everyone else followed as the mountain lion was using it's large paw to swipe the snake off and then saw Lilly's tail in the distance and beginning running after her.
Everyone continued to run tree after tree, rock after rock, going through anything to escape. "Nice one coyote!" Garth yelled behind Humphrey. "There was a snake on my leg, it was gonna bite my leg!" Humphrey said as Sebastian spoke up. "Humphrey, tree!" He warned him! "What?" He asked, all suddenly answered as he slammed straight into a large oak tree head on. "I've been there before" Kate said as he helped her mate, just as he looked up the tree. "Quick, everyone climb!" Humphrey said as he grabbed a low branch and pulled himself up, he got up on all fours and grabbed another low branch and continued on up. Kate then squatted down and flipped onto a branch and jumped up catching up to Humphrey.
Sebastian then climbed up into a branch and helped Katelyn climb up one branch at a time. Garth did the same as Kate and jumped into a tree . He stopped and let down his paw to pull Lilly, she was a little heavier then Garth expected, but it was no problem for him for he loved her.
But as Garth pulled her up, the mountain lion came running out of the bushes and then saw Lilly in the tree and in it's line of sight. Garth saw the lion coming at them. His eyes widen, he snapped out of his fear of the worse, and with all his might, Garth pulled Lilly up to the branch with him, but it was a bad timing.
The mouton lion pounced off the ground and brought it's sharp claws out, and at the moment when Garth pulled Lilly up, one of the mountain lion's paw swiped in front of Lilly's face, just as she was pulled and brought into Garth's arms.
The mountain lion landed on the ground and quickly got up and began to climb the tree where everyone was in, but the claws couldn't dig into the tree bark because the bark was too smooth. So basically the mountain lion wouldn't be able to climb the tree.
Garth held Lilly tight in his arms as he heard Lilly weep softly, that's when he felt a little thick liquid on his chest, he could tell it wasn't Lilly's tears. He pulled Lilly out of the hug and he saw her head hanging low, more like looking down."Lilly, did that thing hurt you?" Garth asked as he placed his paw on her cheek, then feeling warm thick liquid on her face. Garth brought his paw out and saw what he feared most: Blood.
The alpha then looked at his mate and then used his other paw to lift her head up, and what he saw was more worst then the blood. The Alpha saw on his omega mate, three small but deep scratch marks on her left cheek. Blood began quickly sliding out of the cut, and it dripped off her face onto the branch below her. Garth just sat there looking at her mate's injury and almost let out tears of hate and fear, but instead brought Lilly into a warm hug, letting her cry into his chest.
Humphrey was three branches above them, seeing what the mountain lion had done to his mate's sister. Because of him and his stupid action, he blames himself for this horrible incident.
A/N: guess this is the first time Humphrey has ever done something to hurt Lilly. What do you think will happen next? Review as much you guys can. Now I gotta go help Sebastian, he fell into the toilet again!
