Matthias made straight for the Alpha, but seeing Max move in to block, he made a grab for him instead, and pulled him into a hold.
Gottlieb, who had been moving in to corner Adiyah from the other side, made a grab for her as she danced around to avoid him. She looked like a screamer. He liked screamers.

The time to blow his cover came sooner than he expected, but it had to be done. He could always slink back into the shadows later. Gabriel hopped off the running wolf's shoulder and shifted to his not-so-massive Crinos form. It was, however, a lot scarier than it should've been, mostly because of the really big gun he was carrying. He pointed it at Claire and fired.

Smiling with pleasure at the way the one-eyed Gaian was cowed by his gifts and avoided his gaze, he went straight for her. He went off to give her a nice crinos hug and maybe make her feel some of what he experienced on a daily basis. She needed some more pain in her life.

With Ceaseless-Torment distracting Maria, Bleeding Pain moved around for a good opening and tore into Maria's back.

Yvonne found herself unable to attack, and she could only watch on as her pack took the charge.
Bleeding Pain clawed at Maria. Out of pure luck, or maybe it was the help of the Raven Banner, she managed to grasp at air as Maria swung back and avoided her. However, that sent her straight into Ceaseless-Torment's arms, and he grasped her tight, leaving her open for Bleeding-Pain to continue her attacks. She felt the sharp claws rip through her hide painfully as she struggled.
Matthias was too determined to let anything stop him grabbing hold of Max, and he pulled him into a hold on his first try. Gottlieb had more trouble grabbing hold of Adiyah as she hopped away quickly, and he stumbled over his own feet and fell to the ground.
Gabriel opened fire and emptied the assault rifle's entire clip into Claire. He fired wildly, but covered the entire area and Claire had nowhere to escape to. She felt the bullets rip through her and slow her down, and the rage tear through her to the point where she almost lost control. But she reigned it in, despite the pain, and continued with her charge. Her claw dug into the ratkin's belly and came away with a handful of guts and blood.
Damage: Claire takes 4 levels of lethal damage. Maria takes 4 levels of aggravated damage, is grappled and can only reverse the grapple or break free. Max is grappled, and can only reverse the grapple or break free.
Pack Initiative: 13 Adiyah: 2/3/5 Max: 3/1/5 – cowed for 4 more turns Yvonne: 5/2/4 – cowed for 9 more turns Maria: 4/2/4 - 4 aggravated damage.
Claire: 9 (4/1/6) - 4 lethal, regains rage.
Marskinder: 12

Limp d*cked t*sser Claire snarled as she felt the bullets tear into her body. It would have been easy to escape into frenzy but she fought and kept her cool.
She felt her claws rake into him and that felt good, ratface was going to die. She attacked again intending to make Sushi out of him.

With Maria so snug in his arms, Ceaseless-Torment squeezed harder. The exquisite pain was yet to come. Such a shame that Maria couldn't help the Wyrm fight the Weaver. Destroying that Bane would only make the Weaver stronger as spiders would fill in the gap left by the bane. Torment dug his claws in harder and relished the feeling he hoped would come with his claws entering her soft insides. Such pain was a gift that few were given a chance to experience.

Ceaseless-Torment seemed to be handling things pretty well, but Bleeding-Pain gave him a hand anyway. With the banner working against them, the only way they could take them down was to gang up them. The one thing this pack lacked was good tactics, and that would be their downfall. She clawed at Maria's back repeatedly, tapping into the last of her rage. They needed to end this quickly and help Gottlieb with the Alpha.

Gabriel found he didn't much like going toe to toe with a Black Fury. He decided not to try it again. He'd done what he needed and slowed her down long enough for the archer to reach her quarry. Now it was time to run away.

Now that Max was in his hands, Matthias decided to end Max's life with a squelch.
Gottlieb was furious that Adiyah had escaped judgment, but he resolved to do better and went to grab her again.

Maria howled in pain. The fear and stress of this whole thing was getting on her and her temper was flaring. "CHARACH" the Galliard rasped and used the gift that the spirits had given her. Even with the pain, she hoped the quick growing of her fur was enough to get out of the grasp of that monster and run to help someone.

Max struggled to break free of Matthias, remembering only too well what happened the last time he was in his grip. He hoped the others were doing better than him.

Adiyah had a sense of triumph wash over her as she not only managed to escape Gottlieb's grasp, but he stumbled as well. It was short lived though, she knew how annoyed tripping in battle would make her, and as expected he came at her with that anger fueling him.
She continued to dodge, catching sight of Max's plight and hearing Maria's howl of pain sparked her passion for the fight into a flame. They needed to stay alive, and for that, they needed EVERYONE. As she was trying to stay out of trouble herself, she cast her gaze around. Yvonne was frozen, Max and Maria were in deep trouble, though the metis far more. That left...........
Claire.
Adiyah spotted her not too far off, but much further away than she felt she ought to have been, and fighting a ratkin with a gun. Trying to keep her frustration in check, she howled out for their trial member in the mother's tongue. It came out sounding about as authorative as any alpha could muster, lives were on the line. "Claire.......come now! We need you damnit, leave the rat, not worth it!"

Things were not looking well for the pack, despite the banner backing them and making their enemy's attacks miss half the time. Gottlieb managed to jump to his feet, but try as he might, was still unable to grab hold of Adiyah. He managed not to fall over this time, however.
Matthias kept a good hold on Max and dug his claws into his sides and squeezed. Max felt a hot surge of rage as Matthias drew blood and broke bones. With a final twist he broke free of his captor and wriggled away.
Ceaseless Torment felt Maria's fur grow slick in his grasp, and she struggled free before he could start to bite off pieces. Finally free, she wasn't prepared for Bleeding Pain's onslaught of claws. The two simultaneous attacks ripped through her back and tore open her lung. She collapsed, choking on her own blood and the world started to grow fuzzy and fade as the life left her. But her connection to Luna was strong, and before she'd even fully hit the ground, she returned with a rage-filled snarl. In a frenzy, she now turned to lash out against her killer. She didn't feel any pain. She continued to bite and claw, relishing the blood she felt on her claws and the howl of pain it yielded. But Bleeding-Pain retaliated, and through force of will, she ripped through Maria's chest. Maria weakened. Although her mind still urged her to rip them apart, her body gave up and she slumped to the ground, unable to move, and drifted into unconsciousness.
Gabriel broke off from the fight and ran away, but not before Claire managed to rake a quick claw at his retreating back. He was quick though, and scurried away before she could get her second attack in.
Max takes 3 levels of aggravated damage. Maria takes 4 levels of aggravated damage. Final frenzy heals 3. Last attack does 2. Claire heals 1 level of lethal damage.
Pack Initiative: 10 Adiyah: 1/3/5 Max: 2/1/5 – 3 aggravated damage. cowed for 3 more turns Yvonne: 5/2/4 – cowed for 8 more turns Maria: 4/2/4 - 7 aggravated damage, incapacitated.
Claire: 15 (3/1/6) - 3 lethal.
Marskinder: 17
Max, Adiyah, and Yvonne get rage rolls. Max needs to spend willpower to avoid frenzy.
Reminder: No one can attack Ceaseless Torment or Bleeding Pain without spending willpower (except if frenzied).

Still in her dance with her spiral, though growing bolder due to his constant misses, Adiyah saw Maria's fight out of the corner of her eye. It was brave, and a sight to behold, but then to her dismay, the metis fell. Adiyah noticed fairly quickly their intention seemed to be to distact the stronger while they went for the weaker ones. If they moved on from Maria, it meant three on her next, or maybe Max since the big one was tangling with him and he was injured already. Either way it was a matter of time, and the theurge wasn't sure they could hold out much longer without a miracle.
Hoping Claire heard the plea, Adiyah decided to attempt something offensive. She slashed at Gottlieb, ready to twist and dive if she was grabbed for. So far that was the only thing that had gone well.
(split action for two claw attacks, reverting to dodge any grapples I can)
