Donald woke to the screams of Branween.  It did not take him more than a few seconds to realize that they were in trouble, with wolves baring down on them.  He saw Branween wielding his sword as well and challenging the wolf.  It was really the best course of action she could take.  He pulled the sword from her hands and placed himself in front of her.  He did not doubt her bravery, but was unwilling to let her risk her safety.<br/><br/>Her horse was surrounded as well, and fighting with her hooves against the beasts.  These wolves were brave indeed to face down a horse.  Donald wondered if they were, in fact, ordinary wolves.<br/><br/>The wolves kept circling them, until one was brave enough to charge.  It leapt through the air, headed straight for them.
