The hyenas continued to mercilessly swarm the female like a flock of vultures on a carcass. The matriarch staggered to her paws and snapped her jaws at the lioness, but made no move to stop her comrades from bombarding the feline. It was rather amusing to her, the female's futile attempts to drive her attackers off... The lioness had trifled with her, she had stepped over the line, and now she was being taught a lesson. A sickening lesson, really, but a lesson that she wouldn't forget anytime soon...
As Chaltuu traipsed past, her ears perked as an ear-splitting bellow rang out violently, followed by snarls and barks that were unfamiliar. However, she could recognize the roar... She wracked her brain for who it could possibly be. After a brief moment, she realized it was Kaharabu. She quickened her pace considerably, following the sound of the tumult. Quickly she stumbled upon the waterhole, where she saw the dark greyish lioness trying to ward off a group of hyenas. Without much hesitation she sprung into the fray, preparing to assist the other feline. She swatted a few of the hyenas away from Kaharabu, bellowing at them aggressively. Her teeth were bared and her muzzle was scrunched in a snarl. Though they were still majorly outnumbered, they might be able to either flee- which Chaltuu only did as a last resort- or perhaps make an attempt to deflect the clan, which she could easily assume would be in vain.
