Seeing a chance to act, Xylath lashed out with another pair of tentacles, which forced themselves between Matthias and Kitara, curling around the dragon girl as best they could with her passenger hanging on, an attempt by the massive chimera to shield her in case Matthias decided to make good on his threat. Her tentacles were easily tough enough to stop a bullet from hitting the dragon girl if he fired. Despite that, they held Kitara rather gently, the suction cups gently tugging on her skin every now and then. Now the tables were turned completely, and as Matthias no longer had leverage on her, he was in serious trouble at the moment. "If you won't let go, perhaps I could relieve you of your arm!" she called to him as she extended her lure a bit, confident now as one of her massive claws was raised to the duo's level. She had largely forgotten about the rest of the people in the area, which showed as one of her tentacles abruptly dropped the crushed remains of Clyde's motorcycle onto the street.
