Detention [13.10]

It was early but Harriet was looking bright and alert as she watched the students arrive. She had a cup of tea and a smile that might be just a little unnerving as she waited outside the Dangershop.

"Good morning, students. Your task is to rid the countryside of a marauding beast. I'm sure you'll all do a wonderful job. And Mr. Madrox? Just one of you today, thank you."

"ACK!" Annette twirled around, trying to keep it in her sights; those claws really freaking scaring the crap out of her. "I decided I don't like you! You're lonely cause you're mean!" The snapping had her swinging the sword again. Poor thing; she didn't really want to kill it.

Maybe her yelling at it hurt its feelings, maybe it just got a claw caught between two rocks, but it pulled up short, wings flaring out to keep itself from falling out of the sky, and turned its head to look back, neck stretched out and looking awfully vulnerable.

Annette blinked. Stared at the Jabberwocky and felt sorry for it. "I don't want to kill you. Your neck is there for me to get I know that. Maybe if I just bring back a piece of your tail? It'll grow back, right? Maybe the tip of your claw? Give me something to work with here and I will let you live. I promise."

It roared and snapped at her, then swept up into the air, did a full three sixty and looped back, flashing past her, tail stretched out behind it as it circled the rocks, trying to get behind her.

"Man, you are just terrible aren't you!" she shouted and bent down when it snapped at her and in amazement, she watched it fly into the air and come back at her, only to fly past... and she took advantage and swung her sword high and fast, going for it's tail.

The sword bit through, not quite going snicker snack, and half the Jabberwocky's was severed, landing across the outcrop.

With a bellow, it started to spin out of control, balance gone, spiralling down to crash into the copse of trees with a crunch and a snap, and was still.

Annette grabbed the tail that she cut off and stood there, watching the Jabberwocky fall. She cringed at hearing the crunch and snap and her bottom lip wibbled. She's never killed anything in her life. Hopefully it just fainted? She wasn't going to go and look. Poor evil thing.

There was a tiny movement from the copse. Could be a stunned Jabberwocky waking up, could be a tiny woodland creature coming to give its corpse a good kicking. It was impossible to tell without getting closer.

All things considered, this might be a good time to take that tail, and go gallumphing back (http://community.livejournal.com/fandomhigh/1561424.html?thread=95558736#t95558736)!

And Annette did just that. She wasn't taking any chances. She took off running, tail clutched in hand.
