His knife gleamed as he drove it toward her chest. Raven’s wolf exploded. Her claws ripped free, her eyes burning gold. She caught his wrist mid-swing, bones cracking under her grip, and with a snarl that shook the trees, she threw him back into the dirt. Gasps ripped through the Fangs, terror now plain in their faces. Cole screamed, clutching his broken wrist. “See?!” he howled. “She’s one of them!” But Raven wasn’t looking at him anymore. She was staring at Reed, who had seen her claws before, but never like this. Never unleashed.

Then, with a sound like tearing silk and cracking bone, two enormous black wings unfurled from his shoulder blades. I froze, my breath stolen from my chest. They weren’t soft, feathered wings like an angel’s. They were sleek, scaled like obsidian, each feather sharp and jagged, gleaming like blades under the moonlight.

The audience erupted in thunderous applause, and several world-renowned dancers gave us rave reviews. Marissa wheeled me to center stage. Since the incident, this was my first time stepping onto a stage again as a choreography consultant. I bowed my head alongside the other dancers, grateful for the audience's support. This time, the flashing cameras and the eyes of strangers didn't scare me. I felt like I had found a new purpose. … Three years later, I choreographed a dance called "The Fallen Butterfly."

Sskíatokos had obsidian claws where the wings bent, much like a pteranodon. Instead of hand-like paws, the claws were sharp and covered in the same substance as its vomitous spray. They could be used like acidic daggers, creating lethal wounds. The creature vomited its substance, hitting the shield surrounding the warriors. The shield sizzled and faltered, no longer protecting the warriors. Another witch hastily cast another one, replacing it. This continued as the warriors cast fire spell after fire spell on each of the three monsters.
