A few babooches scouting parties

The couple kept wandering through the woods in search of new prey and new prey they found, three groups of two babooches each that looked like scouts.

Individually babooches were stronger than Jakis but still considered pretty weak overall, on the same level as weak murims... possibly a good choice for a sparring partner, they'd surely give more of a challenge than a bunch of Jakis, though their numbers might be a problem for Ren to take on all on his own, especially so if a few strong ones were to be mixed in.

Well, Mei's would still save the day if things went south, but her presence may stimulate the babooches and their higher morale may bring more troubles for Ren.

Therefore, how to deal with them?
