The bear had never lost a battle before. But two lions? In the woods?
Its throat collapsed and air no longer filled its lungs. Blind as it was, its jaws snapped uselessly against nothing. Its last act was to grate the flesh of something even as its body was cut from throat to stomach. The most peculiar coolness filled its body (air seeping into its chest cavity), but there was blood beneath its claws, and that was good.
With a gurgling growl as Sam’s teeth closed and finally snuffed life out of the creature, it relished the fact that it had likely killed one of the lions.
That was something.
And so life passed from its lungs, it's dying breath gurgling into Sam's parted jaws.
