Near the Shadows

Before she had to pause and decide which Coyote to take down first, the stranger grabbed the one at her side, pulling it free. She grunted as its fangs left her fur, and pounced on the one in front of her, who had hesitated to help its friend. Now, it was too late for the creature, as she got her larger bulk on him, pinned him down, and ripped in. she turned him into a corpse in moments, and spat blood from her mouth as she took a step back. Valkyrie was finishing with the one that had attacked Shaye’s side, and that was the last of the pack.

That had to have been one of the fastest group fights she had ever participated in, considering how many opponents they had faced. “Good fight. I’m Shaye, and i’d say thanks for the save but i think we're about even.” she offered the wolf a friendly grin, trying not to let her eyes stray to the bloody corpses. It wasn’t often she let her anger out, and coyotes where one of the few things she couldn’t help losing her temper on. Still, she felt at least a little sick as she saw the aftermath.
