AVP Rift War 5

There was enough damage to make it a mortal wound, but that didn't mean the Xeno was finished-it could still inflict a lot of damage before it died. She braced the angled combistick against her left arm and-wristblades extended-her right hand shot forward in a blur, first one way then the other. With the completion of the second sweep the Xeno's racket stopped abruptly. Its long, smooth skull lolled to one side as its body went still.

It was only a matter of moments before more Xenos would show up, drawn by the now-dead one's caterwauling. Ca'toll didn't wait. She withdrew the combistick and the Xeno dropped, flopping onto one side. A final, fast twist of her wristblades and she had the Xeno's dripping head in one hand.
Bounding to her cable she rode it up, her trophy dripping acid as she went.-pg.66 chpt.7
