The tiger that shouldn't be....is....
Without even realizing it,, Markus had begun whimpering in time to the blows that hit him. He was battered to the point of exhaustion. Suddenly, he ripped his trapped wing free, leaving the king only a handful of glossy black feathers. He jumped and kicked with both feet, using the man's chest like a springboard to leap into the air. "This isn't over!" He called down to the King. "Not by a long shot, I promise." Flapping unsteadily, he turned and sped away, into the forest to lick his wounds. He glanced back as he left. 'I'm sorry Akila. I tried, really I did......'
"Thank gods. Markus will be fine now. He's got a good healer at his side, he'll be fine now that he got away." Aleera told the girl who wasn't looking. She sighed though, knowing her time to act again had come. "Here goes nothing." She muttered and swung off the mare. Running to the King, she cried out. "Sire! Sire, are you alright?"

Clorogne didn't stumble until after Markus fled, and muttered, "I...will be well, soon..." he knelt next to the steed, and placed his hands around the arrow. It stuck tight in the skin of his lower neck, and broke the end of the arrow, slipping it out, and The horse whinnied. Rouchly, he tore off his own upper armer, revealing his bleeding side from Markus' first arrow, and said, "Slave!" Akila wiped at her face, somberly jogging after Aleera towards the king and he grabbed her cloak, tearing a strip from the bottom, and wrapped his waist around, "Let us go...Aleera, we may need to sit three to your mare. Can she handle it?"
"What about Concentone?" The name of the King's horse. Akila asked large eyed, kneeling at the horses side, "We can't just leave him!" She knelt at the horses side, stroking his head, which laid on the ground calmly.
"He's going to die, anyway." Clorogne waved a hand at her, "We must go...it isn't safe."

Aleera, still mounted, glanced down at Akila. "Alright." She said softly. "I will. Just keep an eye on the king for me, please." She nodded then wheeled Ebony around, heading back the way they'd come. She cantered back to where they'd left the steel gray horse. Dismounting, she moved to kneel beside his head, stroking and whispering soothingly to him. And so she waited.
Markus didn't make it far at all before his wing gave out and he plummeted towards the ground. A large branch caught him,, breaking his fall. He simply lay there for awhile, cheek pressed against the cool bark, wings hanging limply. He stirred himself only when he heard his people calling for him, searching. "Here!" He croaked out the work, exhausted. He passed out again, almost as soon as they found him. They dragged him down from the tree and carried him back to the hideout to care for his wounds.
