Sonnie stood there, catching her breath and staring at the puddle of gore on the floor before her.
Damn, she felt alive! The thrill of battle was always exhilarating! Victory brought an lovely endorphin rush, too! Her Spring Mantle was practically vibrating! She didn't feel bad about killing this thing. It wasn't a person. Not really, and it was the only way to keep Sera safe. The Claviger had done her duty.
"Stay back!" she warned Sera, not wanting the Fairest to accidentally get cut by her tornado cloak. The Beast stepped back from the corpse and released the Contract. The spiraling air around her dissipated, the whistling sound going silent. The dust and debris that had been caught up in the winds fell to the floor.
"Sorry," she spoke again, "Air magic. Touching me would've been bad." Her voice changed a bit as she calmed down, losing that growling, feral edge, "Contract from Elementals, bit of a bitch for me to learn." She glanced back at the dead Pursuer. "Worth it!"
She plucked the three throwing knives out of the body, wiped them off on a clean spot on the corpse's clothes, then pocketed them. Sonnie proceeded to dig in her bag, and came up with her murmurleaves. Healing goblin fruit. They were in a dried state for storage, in a zip-lock baggie. She pulled one out and popped it in her mouth, her teeth crunching the leaf before swallowing it. Her remaining gash, on her arm, partially healed up, now looking more like a mild cut.
She held the remaining leaf out to Sera, "Eat."
