[color=LightSeaGreen][i]"Damn threat-grabbing noob!"[/i][/color] Raine cursed in her head as the Panther ignored her in favor of Walker. [color=LightSeaGreen][i]"Tank goes in first, give them a few seconds to build threat, [b]then[/b] start attacking!"[/i][/color] With her charge already underway in earnest, she had to run with her momentum. She continued in a straight line for a few seconds before angling back in a wide arc and realigned her path with the Panther. [color=LightSeaGreen][i]"I [b]refuse[/b] to die in the noob zone,[/i][/color] she thought irritably. She'd chew him out for jumping the gun later; right now, all that mattered was the fight.

It seemed unlikely that she would reach the two before the cat went to work on Walker, and then suddenly, an orb of light shot out of nowhere and impacted the Panther in a spectacular display of color. Raine didn't concern herself with the "why" of the sudden intervention, but rather, she pressed the assault.
