K'tahjha still lay flattened on the overlooking hill. She is so engrossed in the battle, and trying to absorb everything she can so she would be able to help next time, that she only becomes aware of the new bull charging in to the fight seconds before K'nahli herself. Tahj's eyes widen and her mouth hangs open soundlessly. Somehow even over the din of the battle and the thundering hooves of the massive animals, the sickening crunch of the animal hitting the huntress reaches Tahj's ears.
Her panicked gaze seeks out the rest of the hunting party only to find them engaged with multiple foes. She turns back to K'nahli to find her still down with the animal targeting her with it's fury. Tahj closes her eyes, whispering, "I'm only supposed to watch, I'm not supposed to interfere." Finally her eyes snap open and she pushes herself erect with a snarl of challenge to the beast, drawing her bow and taking careful aim. She knew from watching that targeting the massive bone filled skull would do her no good, so she targets the reletively softer parts, aiming for the flank and undersides. She releases arrows as fast as she can seeking to distract the beast from it's intended target.
Tahj grins in triumph as she beast gives an angry cry, turning it's head to seek the source of it's torment. As it spots her and turns her way her ears flatten, she hadn't thought this far,"Now what?"
