Day After Doomsday, Thursday, Per 2

"Welcome to your final," Hardison said. "I never got an actual report from y'all, but just listenin' to you talk made it sound like y'all were plannin' to take the fight to those things out there. Unfortunately, you're all hungry an' pretty slow, so to represent that, I'm speedin' the monsters up a bit. They're stronger'n you an' now faster'n you by a decent clip, but you're still smarter'n them, so hopefully that'll be enough to turn the tide."

What the class didn't know was that Hardison had set up a timer for the sim; if they didn't head out and start their own attack by halfway through the class period, the monsters were going to attack the dorms. Surprise! But, hey, sometimes people needed a little kick or else they'd spend all their time planning and never get around to doing.

Well, it hadn't set it on fire, but Raven would take it. She hopped around to a nearby tree, shifted to a squirrel, scrambled up it, and leaped off a branch above the monster -- and shifted to an elephant on the way down.

It was not a trick she'd try anywhere but the Danger Shop. But she rather liked it anyway.

There was a wet squelch from where Raven's feet hit the ground, along with some disturbing bone-crunching noised. Gravity plus several tons of animal were no one's friend, really.

That was one monster down. Well-played, Raven. Well-played.
