I must say this is probably one of my best pictures to-date. It took me like 2 days to draw but I am very pleased with the outcome. If anybody has any requests please comment on my page. This is a scene from one of my books, hope you like it!

Here's some of the story:
***
I stepped lightly through the forest, my ribs still aching from when I had fallen. I could see my breath and shivered at the thought of it. All around me the sounds of the forest suddenly stopped, followed by a roar that shook the ground.
I jumped and looked around wildly at the noise, but nothing was there. I continued walking, though a bit more wary this time.
I held my dagger out in front of me as I stepped into an empty clearing. I could see the moon, glowing down brightly on the silver blades of grass.

That was when I realized I was lost. So involved was I with my search for whatever had been lurking outside our camp that I never bothered paying attention where I was going.

I heard the sound of something charging through the forest, most likely the creature from earlier. Accompanied by the noise was an ear-splitting screech that shook me to the core. Without realizing what I was doing, I dropped to the ground and put my hands over my head just as a gargantuan, white-speckled blueberry colored bear leaped into the clearing and right over me. I shrieked in alarm and began to get up, so as to run away, but a voice stopped me.

It is nearly impossible to describe what it sounded like. It was very birdlike, but it had an undertone of a low growl.
"Don't move a muscle. It will kill you in a second. Just don't move."
I looked towards the source of the voice and realized the most beautiful creature I had ever seen was no longer an eagle.
Its tail swishing back and forth menacingly, its front legs wrapped in bandages, and beak opened in a threatening snarl, the black griffin crouched low, ready to pounce.

Meanwhile, the bear was watching me with great interest, as if I was some giant toothpick. I gulped. It charged at me and I tensed, preparing for death, but then the griffin jumped and blindsided the bear. The bear ran away whimpering like a coward, but it had left plenty of damage.

The griffin lay on the ground, panting, with a huge gash down the length of her side.
I kneeled down beside her. All I had was my dagger. I couldn't do anything to help.
"I am so sorry!" I said, gasping at the damage.
"It's okay," she said, "I've lived through worse."
I glanced over her body, taking in her golden-tipped wings-the patterns on her head, her fire-colored, feathered tail.
"What is your name?" She asked.
"Me? I'm Kinja. And you?"
"Mahini." She blacked out.

Is that an Ursa Major or Minor? It looks like an Ursa Minor, but I'm not sure.

Those are bear constellations, and in MLP, they are monsters resembling the one you drew.
