[Nothing could possibly go wrong, especially not with the Murderbot throwing itself directly between Breq and the monster. It's lucky that her reflexes are what they are, because that means it won't be getting shot from behind in addition to its wrestling with the monster in front of it.
The integrated weapons immediately catch Breq's attention, but in the middle of the fight there's not much she can do or say about that. She mmoves to the side, anyway, aiming for the creature's throat as the Murderbot aims for the mouth.
The creature won't live past the act, but it still closes its jaws around the Murderbot as it fires down the crocodile-like creature's throat. Unfortunately for the Murderbot, the hostile's jaws snap closed harder as it dies, on whatever part of the Murderbot's body is still in its mouth.]
