I wasnât a fighter. No one would call me a warrior. There hadnât been a need for it back home and I had never considered myself the violent type.
But of the four of us, I was the best option. Especially since I was the only one with a weapon, my retractable claws. I had to win. Or at least hold out long enough for Jody and Wendy to do what they needed to do.
I had to keep our captor distracted.
The claws that lived under my skin itched to come out, but I had to hold them in. I didnât want Evil Santa to get a look before it was too late.
We thought we were going to need to start a commotion, to do something outrageous to get him to come by us. But in the end, he came back on his own.
Then all I had to do was stand up. He didnât wait for me to say anything. It was on.
He charged at me, ready for the fight. Ready to push me back down alongside the others.
But this time I was ready, wasnât willing to back down. Now it was time to battle.
I pushed back, and he was so surprised that he fell back two steps before he remembered to fight. And unlike me, he was a fighter. He caught me on the shoulder with a punch that was strong enough to make my entire body ache. I bit back a groan. I wasnât going to cry out from one punch.
But it hurt.
Ouch.
Evil Santa had both the force field generator and the device that would open the portal. I had to get both of them to Jody and Wendy, or at least to get him to drop them. Then Jody and Wendy would do their best to destroy them. We each had our part to play.
Jeff was too injured to do much, so he just had to try and stay out of the way.
The portal opening device was in Evil Santaâs hand. Once he got close, I unsheathed my claws and swiped across his skin. It was thicker than I expected, kind of leathery and tough to get through. But I mustâve hit him just right. His fingers spasmed and opened, sending that device clattering to the ground. And before he reached for it, I was on again, punching and scraping and slicing and inflicting as much damage as I could.
I tried to keep an eye out for Wendy or Jody, to see if they had made a move to recover the device, but the second I stopped paying attention, Evil Santa was on me. He hit me hard enough that my vision went blurry for a second. And after that he had my full attention. We exchanged blows and it became clear that he didnât need a weapon. He was a weapon. His fists were stronger than Iâd ever encountered and he knew how to use them. I didnât think I could win.
The second time he swung for my face, my shoulder didnât save me.
