[SecUnit sees the slash, and it's already forcing its body forward, ignoring pain sensors that suddenly don't seem to dial down the way it wants them to try and catch those claws and turn them away from Levi, or put itself in between. Do your job, Murderbot, or people will die.
It's a full 1.8 seconds too late to prevent the blow from landing and carving lines into Levi's arm, too late as well to intercept what is clearly a trained reaction to ignore the pain of the blow and retaliate with a devastating strike.
What it does instead is slide towards the creature, kicking off the ground and grabbing for those open jaws. Something there sparks, but the SecUnit recklessly punches down the thing's throat, firing in a sustained burst.]
