Firefly Ravine I was born to be free

It took everything Rosalyn had to hold the frothing girl back, and her willpower was failing.  She heard a roaring in her ears as Raleska strained, but she forced her injured leg to hold, though it felt as though it might break in two.  

And still the woman screamed.

RUN, she wanted to scream, but all that escaped was an extended whine that was lost in the noise the two were making.  For the love of everything, run, or she'd let her go and they'd have to deal with the mess resulting.

Finally the woman ran.  Rosalyn waited only long enough to give her a healthy head start before releasing the girl and collapsing sideways, tears streaming unbidden down her face as her leg screamed with the pain of it.  Fuck.  Fuck fuck fuck.  She should have just let it happen.  But she knew this was right, that allowing Raleska to even try and savage the woman would have been a mistake.  She was so tired of fighting their damn wars.

She knew Raleska would likely turn her fury on her next if she didn't follow the woman, but for the moment, Rosalyn didn't care.  Holy shit.
