Instantly regenerates from Siberian's claws

A moment later, claws slashed through the vent, and I found myself falling onto the floor.

I felt a hideous pain as claws ripped through the middle of me, even though the damage was repaired almost instantly. I had no doubt that the Siberian could probably punch me to death, but I reformed myself into a humanoid figure anyway.

She loomed over me, grinning and licking at her claws, which still had a little of me on them. She was staring at me and she grabbed me by the throat.

“Why?” I choked out.

It wasn’t that I actually needed to breathe, but I needed to sell this, give her a show to convince her that I was helpless. If I tried to move her through a portal, she’d just reappear. If I tried to attack her, it wouldn’t work. There was nothing I could do to actually hurt her.
