Ai-Ling is the last person to finish with her raptor, in a few large sword sweeps that bring it down mostly as a consequence of defending herself against claws and teeth.

She prods the corpse to make sure it's dead before looking up at the tent (leather, water-tribe style, remains of a fire and dinner prepared in the same style), processing the way two of the creatures died (bomerang), and finally really looking at the man trying to creep up on the car.

Her heart skips a beat, but she follows quietly.
