Gabrielle barely had any time to defend herself as the abomination sprang towards her like it was shout out of a cannon. Due to her reflexes, she managed to get her hook swords up in time for defence and with knowing how much power the creature can put in a strike, braced as much as she could in the time possible.
Her effort was for naught however, as the creature merely tapped its large blade against her own in a feint as it moved towards the the smallest member of the group. Beta 8 was shocked seeing such a large creature head towards him at such speed an instinctively tried to use his power. His body began moving oddly for a moment before his power failed to manifest.
Shocked, he fell back onto his damatrium Xiphos and got it up in time for the bone like swords of the creature to hit it, sending him flying well past the frontline. The creature did not stop after sending the little man flying and chased after it, ignoring all the small arms fire heading its way as it did.
