Cricket pointed, and he led the way with her following directly behind him.  As he walked, he wasn’t moving his limbs quite so much as it might appear at first glance.  Instead, he extended one growth of metal as he retracted another, only generating the illusion.

Huh, that’s neat.

A hundred new parts growing each second to suggest shifting musculature, a cohesive form, when he was anything but.  Only the core skeleton, the shafts of metal that formed the limbs from the shoulders or hips to his knees,  actually moved without retracting or extending.

He’s a rather shifty dude, that Hookwolf.

Glass rose from the ground to fit together into a window that floated in the air and he smashed through it with one of his forelimbs.

Shatterbird trying to say “stop, I wanna talk with you”?

Another barrier appeared, thicker, and he smashed that as well.  The glass began to form into dozens, even hundreds of barriers.

It’s like a whole street full of people carrying glass panes during a chase scene.

He quickly found one strike wasn’t enough to clear the way.

Hm, and if she puts a thick plate behind him too, she’s got him boxed in.

Also, she can probably shatter these plates again if she wants to, likely killing Cricket, or at least wounding her.
