overpowered by the foul
stench of a large, sweaty animal that appeared out of nowhere next
to her. She turned her head to the right and saw a huge brown bear
right where Tengis sat just a moment ago. The bear’s fur was
shaggy, and as he got up to his hind feet, his towering form
blocked the moon.
“Oh, my God!” yelled Maxim, jumping back to his
feet. He threw himself on top of Sasha, attempting to protect her
with his own body.
Sasha struggled to free herself. “Papa, it’s okay!
It’s not what you think. Let me go, please!”
“Sasha, be quiet,” whispered Maxim frantically. “I
will protect you!”
“You don’t need to, Papa. Just watch!”
Meanwhile, the bear didn’t even look at the two
struggling humans next to him and made a deliberate beeline for the
wolf pack. After taking several steps in the direction of the
taiga, he again got up on his hind paws, his menacing claws shining
in the light of the moon. Then, the bear opened his mouth, his
growl rocking the forest. One of the wolves issued a squeal and
started backing up. The others reluctantly followed.
The bear took a few more steps in the wolves’
direction and opened his mouth again. A growl, even louder than the
first one, broke the stillness of the taiga. Two of the wolves
deserted the field in a hurry; the rest backed up some more. Then,
the bear stood all the way up on his hind paws, his giant front
paws outstretched, and the third growl rocked the land. It sounded
like the final warning. The wolves decided not to argue. The rest
of the pack turned around and ran for their lives from this strange
and dangerous beast that appeared out of nowhere and for some
reason wanted to protect he humans.
The giant bear issued one more growl, evidently to
reaffirm his victory. After that, he turned to face Sasha and
Maxim…and smiled. His huge body started shrinking, until it was the
same height as the tiny Tengis. A moment later, the bear was gone
and the shaman was standing next to them, brushing the dust and
animal hairs off his clothes.
“Still smell a little like the bear,” Tengis noted,
chuckling. “Can’t be helped—residual effect. But no matter, it’ll
air out by the time we reach the village.”
