[h3]Elize[/h3]
When the creature appeared the tall tawny female turned on it as it lashed out. When Fer attacked the creature he had miraculously forgotten the creature's massive wings and though he attempted to severe the creatures front tendons it didn't seem to have worked. Now the creature was bloodied and angry. The creature's front legs were plated like a birds but the plating on this creature seemed to be much harder than they appeared. Just before it lashed out the beast gave an ear piercing shriek and Elize flattened her ears against the sound. It rose up with just a few hard flaps of its wings and struck out with talons and a sharp beak. Elize attempted to dodge the creature's strike but she simply wasn't fast enough. It slashed open a spot on her shoulder but her instincts kicked in and she lashed out with open jaws and razor sharp teeth but she only got a mouth full of feathery hair. 

Airborne the creature shrieked again before rising up higher off the ground only to dive down at some of the others.

[h3]Niall[/h3]
Niall had gone ahead and shifted into his lupine form, his hulking black shape gave evidence of his rank in the pack. Twin to the heir of the pack was a hard life, scars criss crossed his face and his brilliant yellow eyes shone fiercely as his hackles pulled up. When the creature attacked Elize and he realized how fast this creature could be, both on the ground and in the air he was shocked. It didn't look like it would be nearly that swift. Elize was fast but she only managed to get a mouth full of fur and what looked like feathers. 

With the creature lashing out Niall launched himself out through the air and came crashing down atop the creature. It slashed and squawked as Niall weighted the creature down. Not in a position to kill the creature Niall was relying on the rest of this make-shift pack to kill the creature before it killed one of the others or himself.
