In her defense, nobody told her the small ones were smart!

Mid-lunge as she was, the ambush went off without a hitch and Raye barely had time to react before teeth and claws tore into her. It was a precise, almost surgical attack as well. Her typical reactive curse was cut off as a claw slashed across her throat. She hit the ground as claws slit tendons to immobilize her and arteries to bleed her out. Of course, her healing factor kept that from happening but even it was hard-pressed to keep up with the damage being done to her. Even when Jasmine tossed one of them away, for the moment it was all she could do to flail and kick at the animals intent on turning her into mincemeat.

... But at least now Jasmine knew what "shithead motherfucker" sounded like in gurgle.
