Description
It was a simple stroll that he had decided to take, to have a bit of time for himself with another of his sons having been ripped from them recently. After a while of walking, there was a slight rustling in the bushes around him. A small creature's steps. And what else would dare to sneak on a feline, than another feline.
He wasn't one to take revenge. But now he might as well turn the tables on whoever is around. Meso went to continue on his walk until the rustling of the bushes got louder.
Spinning back around he faced the feline with a smirk on his maw as she launched herself at him. Just a cub. Younger than his own sons. A foolish move. The rage this child fought with had Meso surprised as they fought with claws and teeth. Her small size was an advantage to her, but so was his larger size an advantage to Meso because if he landed a swipe, that left a mark. But she was clearly inexperienced to her disadvantage, while his own injured leg was a disadvantage of his own, still making him slower than usually. But as intense the fight was that this kid was putting up, the stronger was his suspicion that it was a trap. Hunters wouldn't let a child go out by herself?
That's when out of nowhere a leopardess launched herself into the fight. Meso's focus immediately shifted from the kid to the leopardess, but he still took some hard hits to his head while thw child continued to tear his skin open, meanwhile arguing with the huntress. It was almost pathetic. And as ridiculous as it was, it was getting serious for him when the kid went for his injured leg.
The sudden spin he made to get his leg away from her had Meso disoriented after the multiple hits he had gotten aimed at his head while bleeding from multiple wounds. But it wasn't yet over. And he had to admit - the child had spirit.
His sight started to blur while he attempted to stay on his legs, the adrenaline no longer lessening the pain in his head and he could no longer keep up with the following attacks.
In the end, Meso's legs gave in under him, and he too gave up after a failed attempt to stand up. His bright blue eyes glared up at her blurred form shifting to the leopardess as she came closer before everything went black.
After his sons, Meso is the next to have been captured by Lilin and Azariah.
