Caught in the act

The Gnoblar was entranced with its "itch" that Mary was sure she could make an escape. Barely daring to breath, she levered herself off the floor so she was crouched ready to spring, but the Gnoblar was oblivious to her, inspired by the Gnoblar's preoccupation she started to creep.

Unfortunately Mary was so concerned with the gnoblar that she wasn't paying attention to what she was doing. Slipping she fell over, landing heavily. The Gnoblar came screeching over, and launched itself at Mary as she was trying to get back up and run. They both went down, the Gnoblar, biting, punching and kicking and Mary trying to grab hold of the diminutive greenskins so she could throw him off.

All of a sudden she managed to get a firm hold and the Gnoblar stopped moving.
