It wasn't very often that Raye left the peace of Shepherd's Haven, even rarer was her stepping in to intervene with problems out in the world. She'd made her opinion on the matter loud and clear a long time ago, and as far as she was concerned if the world was going to shit all over her and her friends, it could deal with its own problems.
This is a little different though. Fucking dinosaurs rampaging through the streets, man! It had been a year since anything like this had happened and while she had certainly been happy for that time, for somebody like Raye who almost thrived off of a good fight... it had felt like a very long time.
She'd been fighting for what felt like hours now and paused to take a rest, leaning against a dented street lamp and frowning a bit. Man, as nuts as all this is there's definitely something missing somehow. Most of the predator types were smaller and even though they were nasty, they weren't really putting up much of a fight against her power and her Scissor Blade and the bigger ones were pretty much minding their own business until something messed with them so taking the first shot just felt kind of lousy. There's gotta be something around here, that--
--that's about when her thoughts are cut off by a massive crash and she looks up just in time to see a very large mouth full of very large teeth slam shut on her.
.....
Moments later, a humanoid form goes flying across the street like a cannonball. She crashes through the glass of a stormfront and knocks aside mannequins and crashes through store displays before coming to a stop. The Scissor Blade clatters to the ground on the sidewalk. Outside, the ground shakes as one of the larger dinosaurs stomps into the road, growling at a long, bleeding gash in the side of its head that its prey had inflicted.
Just a few seconds pass and a pair of shoes hit the ground, crunching glass and catching the animal's attention. A blood-soaked hand reaches down and picks up the discarded weapon.
"Okay. That's more like it." Raye grins as she straightens up, clothes torn up and bloodied. Glittering red threads crisscross the grisly wounds in her body where teeth had impaled her, already pulling them shut. She raises her head, tightens her grip on the weapon and yells upward. "YO! LET'S DO THIS, BITCH!"
The tyrannosaurus answers her challenge with a mighty roar.
[Some NPCing would be great here but I can also take the rex myself. Raye might gripe a little that she wanted this one for herself is help arrives but all are welcome to step in if they so choose! Or stand by and popcorn. Whatever.]
