On the bright side, not all the bears were chasing him now. When Rock Hammer reached the top of the hill another group of humans managed to get the bears attention, causing the pack to split apart. How many left Rock Hammer wasn't sure, but he knew that only the big one and two more were after him, for certain. And when a bullet hit one of the bears, it dazed the bear long enough that it was pushed out of the way, leaving Rock Hammer's pursuers down to two.<br/><br/>This would be the best place to fight off the bears as any. Here Rock Hammer had the high ground, and spotting a bit rock in the distance, if he could take out some of these bears he could chuck that rock at one of the bears and hopefully scare the rest of them off. As the boss bear was about to lunge at him, Rock Hamer swung his weapon behind him, knocking the bear aside. It didn't do much but annoy the bear, but it also made sure that Rock Hammer wouldn't get his throat ripped out.<span style="font-weight: bold">"Go on little guy, stay in your rabbit hole."</span>Rock Hammer let the little razorback boar go to do whatever it needs to do while the colossal mutant focused on his fight. He silenced the voices in his head so he could concentrate on fighting these beasts.<br/><br/>The boss bear recovered from Rock Hammer's blow and now had the back up of one more bear, the same one that Rock Hammer had smashed before. It seemed to still hold that grudge as it charged forward, claws poised to tear Rock Hammer apart. But he didn't simply stand there and take it: placing his stone maul in front of him, when the bear was in range he lifted the hammer up sharply, crashing into the bear's chin. It was enough to knock the bear onto it's back, but it's low groan told Rock Hammer that the bear wasn't dead yet. The Boss Bear barreled from Rock Hammer's left side, low to the ground and coming in fast. With his hammer in the air the mutant brought it down with as much force as he could when the bear got nearer, but the bear swiped the hammer away from him before ti could find ti's mark, leaving Rock Hammer open. He could feel sharp teeth digging into his abdomen through his dog-hide clothes, but Rock Hammer didn't even let out a groan. The Bear was trying to bite his guts apart, holding him close in a bear hug, but Rock Hammer would need to take more damage than that to make him submit. Using the hand holding the rock hammer, Rock Hammer held the bear's head steady, steady enough anyways that the bear could do nothing but gnaw on the bit of flesh that it already had in his mouth. Once the bear's head was more or less still, Rock Hammer stabbed his index finger into the bear's eye socket.<br/><br/>There was so much force and speed over the small area you'd think that someone shot the bear in the face with a shotgun. But no, it was all Rock Hammer. Blood covered his head as the bear roared in agony, weakening his grip enough for Rock Hammer to push the bear away. And none too soon, as he saw the other bear he had knocked over come charging at him. Rock Hammer side stepped the bear this time, but also slammed his weapon against the bear's front left paw, not only tripping it as it charged pasted but also breaking the bear's leg with a sickening crunch. The bear moaned in distress due to it's lame leg, but Rock Hammer put it out of it's misery with a solid, well placed blow to the head. Shards of skulls and brain matter stained the pure way snow and Rock Hammer.<br/><br/>That was one down, but the boss was already up and angry. However, from the heavy wound from it's eye and Rock Hammer's own largely decent health, even the bear knew that this was a battle that it would lose. Perhaps out of fear or simply because it was smart enough to do so, the bear fled, running down the hill and disappearing into the Redwood trees. With the immediate threats gone Rock Hammer put away his weapon and strode towards the other side of the hill. He saw a few other bears attacking the humans with their guns, but he knew that the humans wouldn't stand a chance. Those bears would be able to shrug off their gunfire and close the distance. They needed something to slow them down. Something to knock them down. Picking up the giant stone that sat on the hill, Rock Hammer chucked it into the pack of bears, crushing at least one. He roared off the top of his lungs to get their attention, and hopefully scare them off. Being covered in the blood and gore of one of their own might've help.
