Heidi ignored the Werewolf and barged in to the bathroom with her sword raised. It was glowing brightly as she put her strength into it. She was ready and running on pure adrenaline.
The sight that the Lady Knight saw would have chilled even the bravest heart of a seasoned war veteran. Blood was splattered everywhere and a large dark pool of it glistened beneath the prone form of an unconscious Lieutenant. Atop the Drow Officer was his attacker, the Werewolf was literally biting, eating and chewing its way through the muscle and bone of The Lieutenant's right shoulder.
When Heidi burst into the room, the creature swung its blood drenched maw towards The Lady Knight and roared in challenge at this untimely interruption to its meal.
Heidi fought back the fear with adrenaline, she needed to be strong for just a little longer. She screamed right back at the beast, her war cry.

When Serna arrived at the top of the stairs, Serna discovered Ianto with his harp in hand knocking on the door of the Lady Knight and The Lieutenant.
"Aye! Lady Knight! Is everything alright in there?" inquired the Innkeeper in a voice loud enough for Heidi to hear, "We heard some noise and wondered if you and your mate were okay?"
Heidi heard the knock and yelled, "Get in here and get Sor'n out!" She didn't dare take her eyes off the Werewolf.
She glared at the monster, "You are gonna die for this, mutt." She couldn't use her power as a weapon, for fear of hurting her love mate. Plus if she survived, she'd need it to heal him.
Turning to Serna the Innkeeper ordered, "Stay right there and stay out of trouble."
"You don't have to tell me twice," mentioned Kana's Ex-Servant without making a move.
Ianto quickly opened the door and assessed the situation as he tried to hide his revulsion at the sight he saw.
"By the beard of Saint David!" were the only words he gasped as he attempted to do what the Lady Knight ordered of him.
She moved slowly away from the door, she needed to bait the creature away if they were going to get the Lieutenant to safety. She grasped the hilt of her sword with both hands and stopped in front of the hole the two creatures has ripped into the room.
The Werewolf rose onto its haunches and followed the Lady Knight away from the fallen Drow all the while snapping, snarling and hissing at its new intended prey. With his Harp at the ready, Ianto moved over to The Lieutenant and kept his eyes on both Heidi and the Werewolf. Upon reaching the Drow Officer, the ex-Bard slipped one arm around Sorn's waist and began to half-drag and half-carry him towards the next room.
"Come on then! Show me what you got!" She yelled at it, waiting for it to charge.
The Werewolf cut loose with one more defiant roar of anger before it sprinted towards the Lady Knight at a full charge with the intention of cutting her down and ripping her to pieces.
