Max realised that he had broken free much too easily. The massive Crinos he had wrestled with before seemed to be weaker, almost as if he couldn't fight properly. He was affected by the banner almost as much as Max himself was affected by fear. He took a few steps back. He couldn't lose control now. They would swarm him and drop him in an instant. "Hold them back," he shouted to his packmates in the Mother's Tongue. "We have the banner. We can't lose!"

“Buggar” Claire snarled as the rat ran away, but she breathed in his scent she would remember. And next time he would not run away because she would have ripped off his leg and would be hitting over the head with it.
The winged one had got through but before Claire could set off after it she heard Adiyah howl for her to return. The orders where to stop any reaching the archers but the Alpha was the Alpha.
Claire turned and saw Maria’s last stand and then she was charging back heading for the bitch that had brought her down. She would save the mourning for later, first it was time to kill.

Ceaseless-Torment nodded his thanks to Bleeding-Pain and proceeded to rip out the heart of Maria. Such was her fate for being on the wrong side. Torment told her corpse in the corrupted tongue, "Now you know the final pain. Too bad you couldn't see the truth." Torment then dashed up and through the last of his rage, called up Hakaken's other gift to him and forced it upon Adiyah. He would win great renown today against this divided pack.

Once more, Gottlieb went for Adiyah again. Sooner or later she would scream as he purified her in his arms.
A grin spread on Matthias's face as he saw Maria fall. He left Max to yell, and turned to help Gottlieb quit messing around and get Adiyah already.

Bleeding-Pain left Ceaseless-Torment to his snack. She might have been the one who brought the cripple down, but Ceaseless-Torment had held her and kept her from escaping. When she saw that the one who'd abandoned the group was coming back, and shifted to her dire wolf form and ran off as fast as she could.
(Rage to shift. Running away from Claire, basically north towards the pack.)

Gabriel ran off, hurt and bleeding, but that didn't slow him down. The first chance he got, he shifted into rodens and disappeared into the night.

After Ceaseless-Torment stopped for a snack, he turned to give Adiyah a fearsome glare. He wasn't quite as big as Matthias, but somehow he seemed just as frightening now. However, the presence of the raven banner filled Adiyah with such confidence that she was unaffected by the gift.
She in turn clawed at Gottlieb, and although he tried to evade her, he failed miserably and she managed to dig both claws into his belly. Her hands were now filled with blood and guts, and he stumbled back, clutching his insides to keep them from falling out. Matthias clawed at her back. Despite the easy opening, and his years of experience, his first claw missed her and grabbed at air. The second hit found its mark though, and Adiyah felt the impact of his massive claws as they shredded her back.
Claire found Bleeding-Pain slip through her grasp and run off towards the north. It seemed none of these bastards were willing to fight her at all, much to her disappointment.

Hmm they seem to hit the weakest and run away, but what else did you expect. Claire altered course and went to aid her Alpha, she seemed to be doing well. But an extra pair of claws always came in handy. (Attack Gottlieb or any that gets in her way)

Ceaseless-Torment wiped the blood away from his fangs and went towards Adiyah. He charged towards her and lashed out with his fangs, attempting to help Matthias with tearing her to pieces.

A howl of rage escaped Gottlieb's throat and he surged out at Adiyah, determined to bring her down before he died himself.
Matthias growled at the sight of Gottlieb getting he guts torn out and aimed a full attack against Adiyah. He wanted his revenge against Adiyah for Katja's death and was determined to get it in any way shape or form. Preferrably with Adiyah's death.

Bleeding Pain rushed back into the fray and clawed at Adiyah too. She went for the side to allow Ceaseless-Torment access to her back, unless she turned around and attacked her.
(Target Adiyah. Abort to dodge if targetted.)

Max might've been afraid of Marskinder, but he was a lot more afraid of seeing his pack-mate fall. He couldn't stand by and do nothing. He stepped between her and Matthias and stopped the oncoming attacks.
"Handle them!" he shouted to Adiyah.
(Block Matthias twice)

Adiyah felt the impact before she saw Matthias. She'd taken a hair too long to relish that triumph of striking her foe down. The sharp pain told her his claws were digging deep. For half a heartbeat or so, she forgot how to breathe, then roared in agony and anger. There was no time to waste now, she saw Gottlieb regroup and Torment coming for her, Matthias too. Three on one, these odds sucked. But the banner, and Claire were with her now. She did her best to dodge and go back on the defensive, hoping luck would hold out long enough. Max was right, they couldn't lose, had to win here. The Spiral pack didn't deserve the satisfaction of seeing another of Dammerlict fall. At Max's yell to her, and seeing the rest of the pack come to her aid, she felt confidence again and put it to good use.

Matthias moved in to attack but Max deftly and easily blocked both swings. Gottlieb made a wild claw at Adiyah, but managed to miss her entirely. Bleeding-Pain moved in from the side, but out of nowhere, Yvonne moved in and blocked the attacks. The 3 worked together brilliantly as only a pack could, fending off the attacks and protecting their Alpha. Adiyah dodged Ceaseless Torment's first attack easily. His second was a lot more focused, and Adiyah only barely managed to swing back in time.
Claire slashed her own claw at Gottlieb. He was already badly hurt and it took very little effort to put him down. But the rage ran strong in this pack, and it pushed him back to his feet in no time. With a strangled snarl he launched himself at Claire, slashing and biting at her in a frenzied act of revenge. Claire had not anticipated this, and did not counter any of his blows. But even in the throes of rage he was weakened by the banner, and his attacks were a lot less deadly than one would expect.
1 more turn until Max can attack. 6 more turns until Yvonne can attack. Claire heals 1 lethal but takes 2 aggravated.
Pack Initiative: 9 Adiyah: 1/3/4 - 5 aggravated damage. (-2 Penalty) Max: 2/1/5 – 3 aggravated damage. cowed for 1 more turn (-1 Penalty) Yvonne: 5/2/4 – cowed for 6 more turns
Claire: 14 (2/1/5) - 1 lethal, 2 aggravated. (-1 Penalty)
Marskinder: 12

Now, they were fighting as a pack. Adiyah was annoyed that it was all in the name to defend her. An Alpha should be leading, not being sheltered. But she was too injured to complain, and too appreciative of the three who were fighting with her. They could do this, they just needed to last a bit longer. "Take them down, make them pay!"
Feeling the tear marks sting and burn, and dampen her back with blood, she knew fighting back wasn't the best tool in her arsenal. But.....she had a better one for right now. Keeping a wary eye and nerves coiled for a quick dodge if needed, she put her hand on Max and concentrated on healing his wounds best she could.
