"Easy, easy now," Ren said softly to her Chocobo as they stared the final Hyena down. She was dimly aware of Fox and Aria fighting around her, but this one beast had commanded her attention. "We'll be all right, just--whoa!" Ren gritted her teeth and tried to stay in control as the Hyena lunged, baring its fangs at either Chocobo or rider--Ren wasn't in the mood to stay put and find out.
"Bad day, bad day, bad day!" she chanted under her breath as she and her Chocobo raced to stay one step ahead of the Hyena. They were well and truly screwed now, unless...
Without taking the time to consider whether or not this would actually work, Ren abruptly forced her Chocobo to stop. The Hyena, too surprised to stop in time, continued forward, leaving the back of its head and neck open for a quick blow from Ren's staff.
Keeping her balance on the Chocobo was a little too difficult to maintain after that sudden swing, but at least the Hyena was too dazed to counter in time, leaving Ren free to attack again and finish the job.
