Her eyes watched in horror as the beast pounced on the poor girl.  Her heart stopped and her stomach turned inward upon itself.  “No!”  She howled, her voice filled with rage.  The plasma rifle would be no good now, she was a good shot but she wouldn’t risk knicking the girl.  So, she dropped it to the ground causing a bit of a clatter as metal hit against hard earth.  Her nostrils flared, she detected the beasts stink, the scent alone was enough to send the defended into a frenzy.<br/><br/>Illiana thought not of herself in that instant which seemed like eternity, she rocketed forward like a bat out hell.  Her booted feet slammed hard against the ground kicking up dust, as she went as her hair whipped about behind her head.  For a moment, she focussed on taking command of her bodies various glands, what she did next she was loathed to do.  She commanded her form to give off its own sexual signals, increasing her scent hoping the beast would turn its attention to her.  Beyond the chemical change, it caused a hint of blush to spread to her cheeks and her eyes dilated ever so slightly<br/><br/>In that very same instant, she leapt into the air, and slammed her shoulder into the body of her opponent.  She hoped the action would knock the Plains Lizard off balance and give the girl a chance to flee into the cities walls.
