The rod let out an audible whipcrack as it struck Heather's beak, and she recoiled in surprise more than pain, splashing clumsily in the water as she stumbled a few steps backwards.
She didn't let go of the creature's shiny tail, though-- but judging by the perfect, baffled circles that her glowing eyes had become as the stared at the mudmaid, this was less out of tenacity and more that she might have forgotten she was holding onto something in the first place.
Such a comical dumbfounded look didn't seem like it belonged on the face of a creature like her, but there it was, and she did nothing but gape for a few seconds.
When her voice returned, she put it to use immediately, saying exactly what you'd think a giant demonic bird in a situation like this would.
"Ohmygod. MAURICE, COME QUICK!! I FOUND THE HOOKER!"
