Wincing when she heard the the crunch, Lily saw the human man's crude weapon as it snapped across the grimwire's head. But, surprisingly, he was not immidiately killed. He held his own. But there still remained a few to fight. Now that the human had lost his weapon, he was the prime target and luck did not smile upon him.<br/><br/>Only one still thought her worth the fight and prowled up to her, seeming deceptively calm. Lily hadn't had a good fight in such a long time. Not since she had last associated herself with humans; now she was itching for a chance to wreck, destroy, attack. It was strange that even after she learned of the true nature of humans, she still felt that instinct of protection. And for strangers such as these.<br/><br/>Lily watched the metal wolf approach, not moving from where she stood, but with sharp eyes for the muscles that would tense before the pounce. There, it's hackles raised, it shifted. But before it could rear it's head and leap, Lily charged it first and slammed her waraxe into it's metal coat, piercing the beast's neck. It whined, a hideous sound, and slumped where it stood, sparks flying from the wound when she retracted her axe.<br/><br/>A yell in a language Lily did not understand. The lady in the white gown had followed her to the fight. And she had brought a sword too, she must have filched it from somewhere in the castle. How was it that could one be intelligent and yet lack any common sense at the same time? But, one poor swing and the beast simply crumpled to the ground, twitching and sparking, alive but somehow completely neutralized. All she had done was cut off it's ears. Strange...<br/><br/>Well, the lady was fine. So Lily drew her attention where it was needed. It was the man who was more of a concern. The last two of the grimwires prowled around him, teeth bared. They were prepared to make mincemeat of him and him being weaponless, they were free to take their time with the kill. Finally, one of them went in for the kill. But Lily was there, standing in the way, her wings extended like a shield, having dropped in from above their heads and shoved the human to the side and out of the way. And thus the beast had jumped onto the way of the axe's blade, it's face cleaved in two. And the final grimwire's fate? A simple slash and it was decapitated. Without addressing either human, Lily took a few steps away and dropped her axe, slumping onto the grass, wings coiled around her. Admittedly, that fight took a lot out of her. But she didn't have to save any more of the human's asses.
