I watched Jinx tackle the winged man, then Akello flip and knock him into the trees behind us, I heard Sheanne give a battle cry and launch herself at someone who had been hiding behind the wings of the other man. I saw him roughly kick her and watched as she smashed down on a beaver chewed stump and slump down, dazed. The man tried to grip her but she kicked like a wild animal then snarled at the man<br/>"What the hell do you want with us? Haven't you ruined our lives enough already?" The man seemed totally distracted so I took this opportunity to launch myself at him. My outstretched hands and claws hit his chest and my momentum bowled him over. He hit the grass on the other side of the creek and turned pale as he tried to gain back the wind I had squeezed out of his lungs with my weight. I patiently sat on his chest until he almost blacked out then slipped off so he could inhale. As soon as he had his breath back I again sat on his chest and growled out.<br/>"What is it that you want? And who is that other bird-man?" He shot me a stubborn look and I snagged my claws into the skin on his arm and pulled. Blood flowed out and he called out in pain. I pulled my claws out and he started to talk.
