time only allowed her the briefest of glances to slancio, kjalarr and rayen -- "take it!" she shrieked, surging towards warbone to prevent him from defending the kill. his lunge pushed her off balance and she stumbled, righting herself quickly by launching towards him. she would fight, and perhaps die if she had too -- but the kill would be saltwinter's. with a snarl she dove down, raising a front paw to strike at warbone while simultaneously attempting to jawspar.
