Then Halia wriggled free and snarled at the intruders
The gryphon kicked Xene with his powerful hind legs and sent her flying about a foot in the air before he stood up and steadied himself, shaking away the dizziness left from being strangled. He lunged with a thick black beak at Xene's leg, grasping onto it, before jerking it and wearily thrashing her into the ground to his other side in attempt at knocking her out.
Another came up from behind Halia and grabbed her by her wings, bending them backward and closing the wings together before grabbing her by them and thrashing her onto Xene. Heros swooped down and landed gracefully beside the Gryphon, lashing him in the eyes with his tail like a whip, leaving the Gryphon wincing and covering his eyes before Nero crashed with her spear-like beak into him, landing him unconcious on the ground.
The other three alighted down on mighty wings, each diving one by one, raking their claws across the backs of Heros and Bedros.
Halia let out a blood curling screech and launched inself at one of the other three. Knowing her body mass wouldn't be enough to knock him over she dove underneath and raked her talons along his soft underbelly as she shot out the other side. Twisting in mid air she shook her wings out and dove back onto his back, clinging on with her claws and lashing at his head with her talons and beak.
