stood motionless. The jungle that seconds before was alive and sound, now was in total silence.
Night Eagle sharpened his ears and opened his perception. These were distress minutes. In the warrior back a cold sweat ran down slowly. The atmosphere was charged with electricity.
Suddenly, he heard the powerful roar of a jaguar very near Night Eagle. The warrior legs bent involuntarily and something tore his belly. With a feline jump, Night Eagle faced the side where the roar came from. His body tensed and was on alert. Another roar was heard, but on the opposite side.
From the roar loudness, the warrior was surrounded by at least two huge Jaguars. Decided to hasten the walk, in hopes of finding a shelter place or a clearing where to make a savior fire; since in the narrow and closed path, he was totally defenseless.
Night suddenly fell, Night Eagle walked at a very fast pace, but without running. He knew that he had to let the animals feel his strength and temperance; otherwise they would immediately attack him.
The warrior was not carrying any weapons, other than the gourds, the backpack and personal power. The roars were increasingly heard closer and advancing. The warrior devised a strategy. He picked a trunk and started to scream with all forces that came from his despair, at the same time struck everything within his grasp, making a true scandal. The strategy resulted, the jaguars apparently bewildered moved away a bit, to find out what happened.
Meanwhile, Night Eagle advanced rapidly, tearing apart his throat and desperately hitting, hoping to find a solution to the situation.
