Fight And Flight

Out of no where Wildthing made a roaring sound, it was somewhere between a growl of anger and a howl of pain and not really recognizable as either.

She reared back onto her hind legs like a horse in distress, and I saw Loper drop down from the side of her head to land in a crouch.

His eyes met mine through his visor and he lunged forward, a knife in each of his hands.

He was fast. Unbelievably fast. So fast I could barely see him moving.

He wasn't as fast as the Blur.

He wasn't fast enough to plunge his blade into my chest before I could swat at his hands with my Vibroblade charged up.

One knife flew through the air as my blade battered it away. But it didn't matter. He was gone before I could take advantage of the situation to stun him with a blast from my gauntlet.

A heavy hand grabbed me from behind, and before I could lash out in a panic, an arm wrapped itself around my throat, yanking me hard.
