Starfire didn't have time to think, or react really. The energy buffeting him hurt. This wasn't any kind of magic he'd touched before. Landing, he dropped to his knees, breathing fast, hard, but, somehow managing to be silent in the process. He nodded to her command, Head bowed slightly as mastery over self and stomach was searched for. Breathing in slowly, and letting it go, the vertigo was passing slower then he liked, but it was passing. Down by the lake, right. Lycans have good hearing, right? She'll be hearing the combat long before we come into sight.
Regaining his feet in time for her to make the needed adjustments to his clothing, mud joining his cloak, and the tears going all the way through the cloak and the thinner tee shirt under it. He reached up and mussed his hair, adding in a few branches and twigs as she smeared the mud on his cheeks.
Taking the rock, he nodded silently, his left hand moving down and drawing a dagger from a sheath in his boot. Rock was set down at his feet, he was careful to keep the hypo spray out of sight in his right palm, he could feel the spell around the rock, it made sense. A slight shiver at the threat inherent in her tone, They will be, it wouldn't be right, otherwise, I was going to use one of the skeletons to help with the angling before we transported. This makes sense, it's the only way that she'll believe it. He wasn't trying to be rebellious, simply state facts. Excitement and a tinge of fear would come through clearly with his thoughts.
He cut his cheek, where it looked like he'd fallen, making it look like he'd scratched it on a stick or a rock. A few more through the tares, after a moment's thought, and examination of the undead closest to him, the dagger was moved to his right hand. His left shifted fluidly, liquidly into claws, green gold and black scales visible. The razor sharp talons were used to rip through his clothing and skin on his right arm, and thinner, finer scratches across his neck, sparks flying off the silver collar as it dented.
About then, Sha'uri walked back up and threw the rock. While she added to the scratches and blood he blinked a moment, struck be another though, a cut added to his hairline, a bit of hair going with. It'll grow back, and if asked, one of them went for my head. They disarmed me. The dagger in his right hand was tossed lightly to the closest skeleton, which would be the one that would attack him shortly.
He nodded to her words, no more communication needed there, he took a step in the direction she'd previously pointed, ducking the one that grabbed for him, he hissed, going for the dagger in his right boot. It was drawn in a flash of steel and he swung, trying to hit it before he ran, fast towards the lake.
All precaution gone now, he drew breath and screamed. Deliberately catching his ankle in a rabbit hole and falling, rolling toward the hill, he hazarded the guess that he was within earshot of the lycan, if not eyesight, he'd closed the distance quickly. Yelping as he tried to stand before screaming again. "Help me! Anyone, please?" Honest desperation in his tone, he knew that he couldn't out run it, and they truly seemed to be on a goal to attack him, dagger in his left hand now covered in dirt.
He regained his feet, and continued toying to run. "Anyone there, Help me! They're going to get me, I can't keep running." Tears welling in his eyes, real or fake? Fear in his tone.
