Re: Lion Tracking

Libby hit the ground with a faint grunt, rolling onto her back and feeling like she couldn't even move, as her mind seemed to be racing with the erratic beating of her heart. She stared up and saw only vast blue sky overhead, and thought for a moment that, hey, being trampled wasn't so bad after all. She barely even felt anything, except maybe her stomach almost dropping to her feet and an odd dizziness even though she was laying perfectly still.

But then she heard Kurt calling her name, and she blinked, and turned her head, and there he was, and she realized she wasn't trampled at all, he'd managed to port them out of danger, just like they'd planned...

...and then she just started laughing and wasn't sure she could stop.

Sure, it was probably some sort of trauma response to it all, but she was laughing and couldn't help herself.

"That was...amazing!"

But it wasn't over yet, so she did stop long enough to push herself up on her elbows to look around to find where the rhino had gone.

"Is it safe?" she asked, confirming that it was with her own two eyes. "We're in the clear?"
