<strong>Tigrus</strong><br/><br/><strong>Kickin' tails and dodgin' fails</strong><br/><br/><br/>Beigey Flashy Blue Wonder girl struck again, deftly dealing with a pair of guards unlucky enough to incur her agile wrath. That took the heat off Rus, he slowed his backpedalling retreat across the ring and reacted to the crowd's tumult.<br/><br/>Rus had to think fast. Time was running out. Not because of the guards, however.<br/><br/><em>Girl can make jokes with the best of them. Anyone would think she wants my job.</em><br/><br/>Staring one of the guards down, his fists raised, making feints in order to keep him on his toes, Rus noted that the remaining two were backing off, unsure of having this brawl made a spectacle in a ring watched by countless members of the public. Just as Rus was about to punch out his dueller and make a run for it, a blur caught his eye. A massive blur.<br/><br/>The huge cheetah he had spotted earlier had leapt into the ring, stared about looking all pissy, and then bounded back out again. Rus had to do a double-take, the sight was simply too bizarre to register. That fraction of a second gave the previously intimidated guard the confidence he needed to make an attack, swiping a vicious overhead that the Orange Howler barely had time to register. Grabbing the guard's club as it descended, Rus pivoted on his heel bringing the guard's weight onto his back, following through with a judo-throw, flipping the guard over his head and onto a back-numbing smash on the ring's dusty floor. Growling out a victorious snarl, his ears flat against his head, Rus stood up and flexed to his greedy audience.<br/><br/>Although the two were no doubt worried about the dynamic duo chewing through them like they had done their comrades, one was on his feet and blowing a whistle, fiercly and loudly.<br/><br/><em>Reinforcements!</em><br/><br/>"Bored is the word, Beigey. Plus I think we're going to have a whole divisions worth more of<em>bored</em>in a few seconds. Want to make a dashing and dramatic run for it whilst cheered on by legions of our frothing-mouthed fans?"<br/><br/>Rus made a grand sweep of the crowd, inviting another cheer, although there were now more than a few cat-calls for Caraina, too, not to mention a few disgruntled cats who wanted to see more guard getting beat up.
