*The mother would lunge forward with its maw, aiming to crush Kibaru's skull in her jaw, but would reel back in pain as Ishikawa's arrow pierces it's neck. She would glare toward Ishikawa's direction and Ishikawa would suddenly feel the immense pressure of being the hunted instead of being the hunter. The wreckage he dove into didn't seem to filter the mother's gaze whatsoever and instead start to feel a bit like a prison.*

*That said, the mother was still reeling in pain from Ishikawa's precise shot, but it would attempt to swing her paw at Kibaru to swat him away he would be agile enough to avoid it. The three cubs however would all surround him and hiss and snarl at him as they each made attempts to swipe at him, but it would seem with the adrenaline pumping through his veins he is able to remain light-footed and avoid all their strikes and even manage to plunge his odatchi into the mother's side, causing her to roar out in pain once more* 

```
Both of Ishikawa and Kibaru's blows land on the mother, dealing 35 dmg altogether. Mother is now Skewered and Bleeding

*Witnessing how dire of a situation Kibaru was in, Ishikawa quickly reacted, drawing yet another arrow from his quiver. His companion wouldn't be able to consistently dodge forever, and the quicker he took out the mother, the quicker the fight would be easier to end. Letting loose yet another arrow, he aimed once again for the neck, hoping to down the beast.*

*The mother would have her roar cut short as yet another arrow made its way into her neck. It would become a bit of a gurgle as blood now dripped from her mouth and a bit of fear can now be seen in her eyes. It would seem she was just now realizing she was no longer the only hunter in these parts*

```
Ishikawa lands their reactive shot, dealing 7 more dmg to the mother

*With the failed attacks, Kibaru would smirk and attack yet again. This time however, he would attack twice, striking the cub left to him.*

*With deft movement, Ishikawa would tenderly take yet another arrow from his quiver, preparing to fire once again. He did not enjoy the fear in his preys eyes like other, crueler hunters did. He did not hunt for the thrill, or the glory. He hunted to survive, and to keep the horrors of the world at bay. Whatever this beast was, it wasn't anything he knew of. Something was wrong. With the end of that thought, he drew his bowstring back once again, letting it fly. Another arrow came flying in the beasts direction soon after.*
