Allen heard the padding of feet before he saw the dark silhouette shoot out of some bushes several meters away. Letting his weight slide to the ball of his feet Allen suddenly spun. The beast narrowly missed clamping down on his neck; instead he felt the skin over his left shoulder get punctured and ripped. He then was met with the rusty metallic smell of his own blood as it filled the creatures mouth.
Continuing his spin Allen raised his arms in a jabbing motion. This caused the beast to sink its teeth in deeper. Not releasing any noise indicating that he was in pain, Allen pulled out a small knife that he kept tucked in his shirt sleeve. This time when he went to jab at the beast it detached itself before the knife made contact with its black pelt.
Rinali could not help but feel sorry for the boy that held the bow when Kanda made his first strike. Then he was able to deflect the attack and then manage to separate Kanda from his shoulder. She saw how fierce the boy fought like he had been living a lonely life. Not depending on anyone else for anything. Rinali wondered how long he had been alone in this unforgiving world.
Watching the fight continue, Rinali saw the boy dodge and attack, then dodge again. Kanda seemed to be having fun as he cornered the boy against a tree. When something happened that only the boy seemed to be unfazed by.
Suddenly in between Kanda and the kid was a tree branch. It seemed to have appeared out of nowhere. But as Kanda took a step back in caution the kid climbed onto the tree branch.
Smiling the boy jumped higher onto another waiting tree branch. Higher and higher and higher he went. Tree branch after tree branch caught him, and if there had not been one there, one suddenly appeared. Just like the first one.
Finally when the Allen was satisfied that he was out of the two lycans reach, for now, he inspected the damage done to his left shoulder. Lifting his shirt and glancing down he knew that it would leave a scar.
Lycans did not have any special healing power unless the spirits under their control like water, which contained the spirit of life itself.
Looking down from his perch, Allen decided to show the ebony wolf that he was not to be underestimated. Allen was a lone wolf and with that in mind he transformed.
Kanda let a guttural growl escape his muzzle when he realized that he was unable to get anywhere near this... pup. Now that he was able to see the boy without any thing blocking his view Kanda saw that he was younger than him. He guessed the tree climber was at least two or three years younger.
This did not bode well with Kanda as he, as an Alpha, thought all pup should be protected in the den. And if a pup like this was already a lone wolf he was especially dangerous. While Kanda stared up at him said boy transformed.
Now the three wolves stared. Two looking up at a pure white wolf that the right front leg was dye red. The eyes of the white haired wolf were like silver mirrors that reflected everything they saw.
Suddenly Timcanpy hopped out of a bush catching the attention of the ebony wolf and the other one Allen had not taken much notice of. This gave him the signal to attack.
Allen jumped down aiming for the bigger, ebony wolf. The wolf had experience Allen had to admit as he had not let his attention be fully captured by Tim. So, when Allen attack he was ready for the impact.
Rinali stared at the sudden appearance of the bunny they had been looking for when she heard Kanda's growl get cut short and then an impact. Turning to the two wolves she saw how the white wolf, though bleeding from his shoulder, was on even ground when attacking and defending against Kanda.
Looking around Rinali saw that Tim was still sitting in front of the bush watching as the two fought. Deciding to finish the mission she stalked over to Tim. And when the rabbit did not bolt she slipped her muzzel around the scruff of his neck biting down. She carried him like she would carry a pup around.
Now the hard part, Rinali thought. And that was getting the others to stop fighting.
Kanda had had enough. This pup might have been good at fighting and had much experience but without the strength of the ebony wolf he was outclassed. When the pup made to go for his throat once again Kanda slipped down and launched his body up. This in turn flipped the other on his back where Kanda went for his neck in turn.
Dazed from the sudden turn of events Allen was unable to protect himself. The next thing he knew the ebony wolf's teeth were locked over his throat, while one of its feet placed on his chest held him down. The answer was clear to Allen.
Rinali knew Kanda had won when the white wolf stopped all movement. The only options left were to surrender to Kanda or die. Rinali also knew Kanda would not take the life of the pup as long as he was no longer provoked.
