Tiger caught glimpses of Trick and Viper stopping Doll, but he payed more attention to his attackers.  Three citizens rushed at him.  He didn't want to hurt them, but he didn't want the freed citizens getting hurt either.  Tiger leaped up when they were about three feet away.  He clipped one string, but missed the other two.  One of his attackers gripped his foot and pulled him back to the ground.  He landed, but his arms were straight out.  Something popped in his elbow and he winced.  He wasn't sure how serious the injury was, but it hurt.  Tiger leapt up again at the second rushing and was able to catch the strings he needed.  "Everyone who's free please leave!" he shouted, not sure if they could even hear him.
