I ripped the Other from its perch but
its free foot lashed out at me and caught me flush on the side of my
jaw. Even as we fell a hiss of pain momentarily drew my attention to
the roof line of the home adjoining Brid's, and I was in time to see
the blood splashed visage of one of the Others falling back from the
roofs edge. It had turned to see what would become of its companion,
possibly even to come to its aid, and had found itself an easy target
for one of Sonafi's home-made thrown missiles. Even as I fell towards
the ground, still fiercely gripping the ankle of the Other I had
pounced upon on the wall, I heard the thump of the one Sonafi had
attacked as it fell and the thrashing as it kicked out its death
throes. It would not survive.
