Fight or flight? The answer is obviously flight since she can and she will. She didn't want to fly far from the spot because it was their nesting spot so they would come back too and pounce at her again, she didn't know that. But she knew thanks to natural instinct.
Serena POV: No, this ain't good, alright let's see my optio-nevermind im flying towards them.
Serena unconsciously started flying towards the food but even though she had armor she still was as fast as a fly thanks to the adaptability of these dumb bugs. She flew to a pile and ate quickly gaining 4% more.
Serena POV: Ugh I can't do this a lot, I need to lose them but how. . . I know, ill do that looney toons thing where they pounce at me trying to eat me but instead I fly through their legs while they still do that.
Serena landed on a leaf gaining energy quickly, as a fly that brief rest was enough to get her half energized again. The Leaf Raptors took the chance and all pounced one at the time, seeing it didn't work out she stayed on it a bit longer but obviously dodged the first attack and then once 4 of them had pounced she flew towards the dung pile and started eating again as quickly as possible. She failed to notice the hunter preparing to hunt the hunters, which would had saved her a lot of time because if she was patient then the blood would had sped things up but she did it the hard way. Soon enough a bigger carnivorous beast came from above and grabbed 3 of the Leaf Raptors.
Leaf Raptor POV:Mom, what do w- ill play dead instead.
Serena POV:Did that raptor just die?! Well for one I know I should not turn into a Leaf Raptor here, but then again ill need help growing up and I can act as if I were one of them. System what do you think?
System:I think its your decision whether you save yourself or risk dying again since this thing clearly is aware of the location of the nest.
Serena:What even is that thing?
System:Fraguar: A Jaguar like beast that is smaller in size but is also a lot harder to kill, they run only on instinct and kill anything that they see move of a certain size, the most common element that they would have is Dark or a Tree element. And yes elements are a thing here since it would obviously be a thing since there is magic. If you want to learn magic you must be at least at the second stage since it is something a lot harder to do though considering g how lucky you are it will probably take longer.
Serena was happy and annoyed, she could learn magic but this system is not helping to boost her motivation, but she at least could turn into the Leaf Raptor now so all she needed to do now was wait. Her plan is to pretend to be one of the hatchling from the eggs but she didn't know if it would work or not since she didn't know if there would be a difference between smells.

How would we find out find out in the next episode of this lazy series. I'll try to make a Christmas special since I am not gonna be dropping this anytime soon, yes the chapters are short and yes it is a terrible start but hopefully in the future I'll stop being lazy and trust me this is not very easy to focus on since life is a thing. Happy Holidays to you all!
