She missed the lizard, which was frustrating--she was pretty good at throwing in general, but this was a quick little moving target in the dark. She grabbed another rock, wondering if she could possible stone a giant lizard to death before it bit her, and also how poisonous it was. Would she have time to escape this hole and get to help? She'd rather just not get bit.
And then it talked. She shrieked again, more out of sheer shock than anything, then she began to swear, a steady flow of profanity echoing in the darkness.
"Of course! Of course there's a fucking talking lizard in my basement!" she hissed in frustration. "I hate this fucking city so much!" She pointed shakily at the lizard. "You're eight inches tall, there's too much of me for you to eat. But if you bite me, I promise you that every rat in this friggin' church will return the favor." She could feel them scampering closer, frantically hunting for holes to climb through to reach her, but it seemed like her cave-in had caused issues. Well, the lizard didn't have to know that. She scooted back further, until her back was against a wall. "Ugh. Sorry," It was pretty rude to throw rocks at sentient creatures, even if they were... iguanas? Was that an iguana, had she just panicked at the sight of an iguana... "You scared the shit out of me. Why are you in my basement?"
