[ She's already starting to turn at his initial reaction, but then that scream freezes her blood solid. Her heart skips a few beats — but not enough to keep her from moving. She's moving before she's even decided what she's going to do, actually.
Her angry prize is dragged back with her as she flings herself toward Sigma and, god, there's another one? The anger is back, twice as loud this time and white hot, all-encompassing. She leaves one hand clamped on the first intruder, the one firm at his wrists, and frees up the other to reach past Sigma's freely bleeding shoulder, straight into the face of the infected on his back. Her face is set firm and brutal as she gets her palm on the woman's face and shoves back hard. Too hard. She both feels and hears a snap, and the body tumbles without further resistance while Ramir's snags Sigma's shoulder to stop him from toppling over with it.
The first intruder struggles frantically behind her, twisting around to try and bite, throw himself at her — which goes completely ignored. Her anger has dimmed slightly, knowing the inevitable like she does, but it's still roiling. She throws that free arm around Sigma fully to pull him forward and away from the form on the floor, leaning her forehead against his chest for just a moment as she does. A second to still her furiously pounding heart, to darken some of the red starting to seep in around the edges of her vision. ]
