(OOC: The Bird was spotted in the sky and took a moment before attacking, so while Jayne isn't on ship when it attacks, she should arrive at round 2 easily. We are still missing a post from Muse, but I'll play out the other actions for the turn now, when we get Muse's post we can move to second round.)<br/><br/>The bird screeched when it was attacked by the jaws trying to bind it into place. Tearing its talons up one at a time wasn't very good tactic to escape the jaws but revealed one thing for certain, this thing was strong, it jerked itself free from the jaws one after another. There was simply too good hold on all three other legs even when it freed one for it to do much harm against its bindings yet.<br/><br/>Screeching, the bird was too far from Will to attack him with a talon but its wing and turning its body partly it swinged a wing. It might have been grappled to the spot it was at but it was far from out of the fight. The wing's swing slammed against the knight's shield pushing him back a full foot but scraping the deck with his boots rather than managing to shove the knight down. This thing was strong and the wing slamming the shield dragged its metal-like feathers along the shield's surface with screeching sounds like a cat sliding down a chalkboard with its nails out.<br/><br/>Jayne was in the air and her spells in use, the magic having left her with a rather guaranteed strike when she'd reach the fight. From her vantage point she could see the creature had slammed Will right towards the ship's rail. If the blow had not been resisted the knight would be swimming in the water wearing his armor now.<br/><br/>The web spell suddenly manifested, the thick white sticky silk clinging to the creature's wings and body, causing it to let out an infuriated shout, tearing some strands of the web already with its wings, but it looked like while it was still winning against attempts to bind it, the bird was far from being out of the count. Red blood dripping ont he deck from its talons, part of it belonging to the dead sailor, part of it to the bird itself.
