Sanet roared as she was kicked hard in the head, but she did not stop her onset. Instead, she ducked low, aiming to knock into his legs. She lifted up one of her massive paws, trying to get it on the hilt of his sword so he couldn't draw it. She roared in fury, trying to confuse and disorientate him. Her claws were outstretched and her mouth was wide open, ready to close around Loki's leg with crushing force. Her eyes glittered with fury, and her fur was bristling like a toothbrush.

Loki fell hard, sliding down the back of the creature, feeling the hair like the stuffing within his cockpit chair. her mouth moved toward his leg, jaws agape and shining with saliva. His heart rate began to rapidly rise and Loki's arms became taut. As her mouth came closer, Loki's fist rapidly struck the creature's eye. If the creature went away to nurse her wounds, he would be able to stand and retreat to withdraw his blade and be ready to strike as necessary.

Sanet reeled back, one eye squinted shut. It didn't stop her though, she leapt towards him again. She stopped short in front of him. If one lacks the use of one eye, then they lack depth perception, which would explain her shortcoming. She roared in frustration, and leapt forward to try to keep him down. She wanted desperately to pin him down and be done. Why, she didn't know. Normally, instinct and pride would have kept her going until either she or the other party were either dead, lacking numerous limbs or some other hideous situation in which one cannot fight. Why she wanted to stop she didn't know.. but pride would help her go a little longer and help her earn her respect. Respect was very important to Sanet, and she often earned through fighting, much like the way wolves fight to become the alpha male. ~My apologies to the Black Knight for implying one cannot fight without limbs~

((Why do you want my Charie to the be the bloody Black Knight?))
Loki continued to back away as the creature jumped, hitting too far froward of him for Loki to even feel the air displaced by her girth. He withdrew his blade as he scurried back once more, avoiding the her as she tried to pounce again. constricting his emotion, he unlashed it in a display of fire. the flames coiled around the blade, spinning like copper conduits around the barrel of an accelerator cannon. As he stood there, his mind racing. He flipped the switch on his charging mechanism. He needed only to to wait a few moments to reach a useful charge. He wasn't planing on striking or firring at the girl, no that might prove fatal to her. He planned on making a show of light, maybe make her think about attack him. He smiled, hopefully the fire on the blade would add to the show when he released it.

Sanet growled angrily at the fire. She leapt towards Loki, opening her injured eye long enough to see where she was going. She was aiming low again, for his legs to knock him down. Roars echoed through her throat as she opened her jaws to try to but the hand holding his weapon. Adrenaline mixed with regret. She wanted to end the fight, but she wanted to continue until she had made how dangerous she could be clear. Too many conflicting emotions for one being. Instinct was taking hold of her, intelligence only had its place in fine-tuning her tactics now. Anything of human merit escaped her eyes as primal savagry took hold of her. This wasn't Sanet anymore.

Loki quickly dropped the fire, mearly leaving the blade at maybe 125 degrees Celsius ((the magic is intelligent, responding to what Loki desires)) Loki held the blade low, quickly deactivating the charge, hoping that it would residually hold in the capacitors. He watched and spun his blade down. it jutted out, point to the ground. steam curled off the blade, the extreme heat causing water vapor to saturate air that rapidly cooled. The flat of the blade faced San, hopefully when she attacked the heat would send her back and cause her to reconsider her situation. If not, she certainly would remember it. If only i had a flash grenade, it would stun her and she probably wouldn't know how to react even when she her faculties back.

Sanet hissed a low growl. She couldn't win in this form. Her instincts told her, and her intelligence told her the same. Her intelligence said to give up, but instincts were too strong for that. But what to change to? Her body became more and more slender, and her fur receded, olive scales replacing it. Her body elongated, becoming about six and a half feet long. She was the Fierce Snake, also known as Inland Taipan or Small Scaled Snake. The Fierce Snake was the most venemous snake in the world, a single bite capable of killing one hundred adult humans. The venom is fifty times more toxic than an Indian Cobra. She would have turned into a Bushmaster, but according to her encyclopedia reading they do not have a cure for bites, and some part of Sanet's mind did not want to kill Loki. She reared up, her head swaying in a cobra-like manner, and hissed threateningly. She was quick now, and deadly yet beautiful. How delightful it felt to be a snake.

Loki began the charge of the capacitor again and then forced the flames to their maximum potential. He smiled and then aimed the tip of his blade at the ground about a foot in front of the posturing serpent. With a sigh, a muscle twitch sent the necessary command. A bright beam of light, encased in a burning spiral of fire, leaped from the point of the blade to the ground in front of San. The concrete path exploded, the carbon in concrete turned a deep black as it burned and the flames died out. He looked at the Serpent, he wondered if it thought about what such a beam might do to her head.

Sanet hissed, and retreated back a few feet. She stared at Chris closely. Her tongue flicked the air repeatedly, tasting the burnt air. She had a feeling that he wouldn't try to kill her. She just had a feeling. And with this feeling, she sped forward without fear, doing what she could to avoid the sword, so she slithered to within a foot of him. She then began to barrage of strikes, not all trying to bite, more like some sort of bizzare sequence. Each strike was almost like a boxer's punch, except not with the strength. Box, box, box, strike, box, strike, box, box. No set pattern, occasional bite attempts, deadly, venom. Beautiful mix. All the while she would cast glances at his sword, still wanting to avoid it.

Loki swayed, jutted, and evaded each strike, but it seemed each time he failed to avoid her, the creature got a bite. Each bite, his legs grew weary. Neurotoxin he thought, Sol protect me. He needed to end this quick. He ceased avoidance and released one hand from his blade. When the creature struck again, Loki's hand made a lightning grab at her neck. He aimed to grab it as close to the head as he could and then hold her up and ask her to surrender. if she refused, he could always use his blade to do a bit of convincing.

Sanet felt hands close around her an area near to her head. She hissed in fury, and opened her mouth wide, trying to get at him, but she couldn't move her head very far. Instead, she began to flail her tail about, trying to lash his legs. Her eyes flickered dangerously. She reached her tail up, trying to wrap it around his arm. She wasn't a python, and couldn't squeeze his arm if she got there, but she might be able to use it to pull herself free. She was a little desperate, but she would never have admitted it. She hissed all the while, trying to direct his attention to her head instead of her flailing body.

Loki smiled, the creature was in his grasp. however, the joy he was expressing was false, she had threatened him, though it is likely that the effects of the venom were less immediate on him than on the rather less advanced humans, the clock was still ticking. The urgency to end this was well within his mind. The one day i leave the bloody ring in my room. he chided himself. He slowly lowered himself, attempting to maintain his balance and grip. With one hand, he firmly placed the creature on the ground, with the other he lifted his blade and rested it lightly between his hand the head of creature. "Surrender." he said simply.

Sanet wriggled for a second more, then let out a terrible hiss of fury. "I sssurrender," she hissed in a strange, un-Sanet-like voice. She glared up at him, and her body began to widen and change, and her scales receded, and her hair returned. Her body took on the normal shade of caucasian coloring, and she was once again human, finding herself with her nose against the ground. "Could I get up now?" she asked simply.

Loki relased his grip and offered his now free hand. "I apologize for doing that." he said with a hopeful smile. His legs felt shaky, he knew he would soon have to cut this short and make a hobbling dash for his quarters...if he could make it. He knew now never to leave the ring off of his person. He'd probably meet one of these again, and another bite might prove fatal. He continued to hold his smile as his legs began to slaken and feel like elastic. Get up damnit!

Sanet pulled herself up. "It's ok. I apologize for biting you. Where do you get antivenom here?" she asked. "I'll help you get there." She carefully pulled his arm over her neck, holding him up so he wouldn't have to put too much strain on himself. "Just tell me where to, and I can take you as far as I can take you. As long as it's not in a male restroom or something like that, I can take you." Her smile was reassuring, she'd used it before in the gang when one got injured, and she would tell them they'd be perfectly alright once we got them to a hospital. Sanet was very used to leading, and had no problem taking charge, it seems. She felt kind of bad for choosing the most venomous snake in all the world out of all the others. She could be such a hothead sometimes.
