Battle
A couger prowls the plains of africa, looking for some prey. Up in the trees above a male leopard watchs the couger tenetivley. Seeing the couger as a threat the leopard drops out of the tree, landing right infront of the couger. The big cat flinches back as the leopard swipes his paw at the couger, his claws giving the couger a gash on the cheek. The mountain lion then lungs forward, grabbing the leopards neck with it's huge paws and trying to clamp his jaws around it's neck. The leopard swipes furiously at it's aggressor and manages to dislodge it from the leopard's neck. It then proceeds to grab the puma's foot in it's jaw and drigs its large fangs into the couger's foot. The couger yelps in pain and viciously slashes the leopards face with it's claws untill the leopard realeshes it grip. Even then the couger continues it's relentless assault forcing the leopard to flee to the tree it was in lying in before, with the couger in hot pursuit.
The leopard scrambles as far out across the branch as it can before being trapped at the edge of the branch. It turns to face it's pursuer, who is limping quietly behind the leopard. The leopard lunges at the couger and the two grapple for a short while before the leopard flings the couger out of the tree, a snapping sound echoing through the plains as the couger snaps it's thigh bone of the hard ground below. The couger pulls it self to it's feet weakly and lets out a quite snarl before limping off into the bushes. The leopard roars in victory and begins to tend to his wounds.
