It's a character from a webcomic... But he looks rather like I imagine Bran, and he's cool.

Surprised at the success of his attack, Bran hesitated a moment too long and the Cerberus' center head was at him again. Feeling the tensing of the muscle of the creature's neck, he was given just enough warning to twist away and save his life, the Cerberus' fangs striking his shoulder instead of the vulnerable throat they had been directed at. Still, the wound was much greater than the previous ones, and with a slight yelp of pain Bran released his hold on the left head of the Cerberus, falling back with a snarl, favoring his left leg significantly.
His shoulder hurt terribly and was bleeding significantly, he was tired--the hot sun beating down on his black fur and intensifying his discomfort a thousand times, this was not the climate he was born to exist in. Still, he noticed that the right head remained still and unguarded--and decided to take his chances, launching himself toward it with a fierce growl, teeth bared even as he leapt.

The right head looked at the Barghest for a moment, then, flinched as the teeth drove into its neck. The right head reached over and snapped its teeth, searching for any flesh it could destroy. But the body reacted differentley. Wolf's fluid movement surprised the trhee other heads as he dashed ontop of the building roof again, the Sun glazing them generously. The Sun merely fed his anger and rabidness. The middle head flung his body around in unexpected jerks to rid himself of this pesky nuisence. The right head's ivories flashed about, looking for the enemy, while Wolf's head snarled in the face of the Barghest raspily. He said another sentence in English, but again, it was hard to make out. He opened his jowls wide and flattened his audits as he prepared for the move that would end this battle...

The sun's heat and the loss of blood from the wound in his shoulder was wearing on Bran, the fatigue becoming stronger and warning him that this fight could not last much longer. The teeth of the right head narrowly missed contact with his side, tearing nothing but the thick onyx fur. When the Cerberus leapt to the rooftop, Bran knew that he could not keep the fight up much longer--he wasn't supposed to fight a creature with this much more physical power, much less on a hot summer's day. He was creature of the night of rural Britain--meant to deal with thick fog and a cold wind, not hot sun and a scalding roof.
Realizing that the Cerberus was preparing for the finishing blow, he released the thing's flesh and stepped back, left forepaw still raised to avoid placing so much stress on the shoulder. He backed slowly, snarling the whole time, ready to defend but unsure of the wisdom--or even possibility--of launching another attack.

Wolf and the other two heads laughed some evil, duranged laugh when the Barghest backed off. Now when Wolf spoke, it was still gruffy and raspy, but anyone could make it out. Think befo' ya' figh' wiff my. Paffetic. he snarled. The other two heads cackled shriller at the sound of his timbre. Wolf stepped forward, his temper wanted that Barghest killed. And his tongue wanted the flesh. He was unstabled now, nothing could calm him besides the death of this Barghest or his departure. His mane bristled as he launched himself at the Barghest, wanting to tear into something, anything. Anything! That was his only care in the world now, biting, ripping, shredding. Everything else. Oblivious. The left head cowered from the last bite that the Barghest gave him, and the right was hesitant. This time Wolf paid no attention to the heads...

Panting heavily, the Barghest looked up at the Cerberus, red eyes glowing with hatred and anger. At the Cerberus' words Bran felt real anger welling inside him now--not the simple will to survive that had driven him to fight at first; but true anger that demanded retribution, regardless of the danger to life and limb. He uttered a low growl, watching the Cerberus prepare himself for the attack.
When the Cerberus charged, Bran met him halfway. His hackles were raised, teeth and eyes flashing, mouth stained with saliva and blood. He threw himself at the creature, jaws snapping at anything within their reach, without care of what he did or did not strike. Besides the growling, he was silent now--he felt that words were a waste of breath and energy better used for combat. Mentally, he understood he was outmatched--but the mind had nothing to do with it now, the violence kept locked away for so long finally springing to life; neglected his mental misgivings for the first time in years. His thoughts were not words, not logic, but raw emotion and images; more fitting the image most humans had of his canine form. He was willing to fight to the death in that moment, mindless to pain and fatigue, suffering from an intense rage he felt only rarely, jaws still snapping, paws seeking footing to support the wolfhound-like body.

The Cerebrus was slowed in mid air by the clanging of fangs that met his own ivories. He prepared his jaw to lock on anything it came in contact with. He hadn't tried this method in a while. He spoke again, much clearer. Go a'ead, try and save ya'sewf. Won' do no good. This time, neither head snickered. Wolf's snake-like tail whipped around, desperate to lash something. It popped in the Barghest's face once, twice maybe three times before the Cerebrus thought to aim for something. Turning his head slightly, his eyes glanced the open under throat. Just waiting for ivories to drill in. With a sharp growl, Wolf changed his whole bodily direction. Aimed straight for the throat, he waited to see if his aim was true, to see if he was truly better than this worthless hunk of meat.

Seeing the attack before it hit, the Barghest leapt forward as the tail swung, his hope resting on clearing the tail and landing beside the monster. He watched the tail's arc, contemplating making a grab for it but knowing it would likely knock his teeth from his jaw before he could clamp them shut. He measured when he would have to jump, readying himself for the violent effort it would require. And then he went, leaping into the air, twisting his body so that he should land at the Cerberus' side, snapping his jaws to catch anything that might come within reach.

Wolf gazed at this Barghest whom he'd thought so pathetic. This was going to be a challenge, and Wolf needed to be in tip-top condition for it. He grinned devilishly and lept away out of site, already in Human form. Why should he run? Why not fight and kill the thing? Simply put, he was stronger than Wolf had expected, and Wolf needed some healing done before fighting again. Blood ran down from wounds on his neck that had been inflicted to other heads, and several holes were drilled into his face. He would get his revenge, just not today. Wolf stayed well away from Humans, fearing they would call the Ambulance.

Slightly surprised by the Cerberus' sudden escape, Bran scanned the area, sniffing for any sign of his adversary. Quickly realizing through scent that the creature had returned to human form, and aware that it probably meant the fight was over, Bran sighed. He calmed himself, trying to tone down the violent outrage that had been coursing through his body, and quietly leapt back to the ground. His shoulder was still quite painful, and he knew it was unwise for that and other reasons to return home in his natural form, so he transformed once again into the human he had been earlier in the day. His shoulder and side were still wounded, but the blood had dried and because he had sustained the wound as a Barghest, no blood stained his shirt. He took a deep breath, his breath hitching when he felt the wound in his side, and made his way home, on careful lookout for the Cerberus that had fought with him.
Useless fight... Absolute madness. Come out with some nasty wounds, and not even my money back to show for it, he thought. Still, he hoped the thing wouldn't return to continue the fight. He knew it was likely, but the fact was that the Cerberus was more powerful than he, and his only chance in a fight relied only on speed and agility in avoiding the attacks and taking advantage of any small opening in the defense.
