Switched demoness (part II)

Walking back to FischCo, I spotted Quiet, Ian and Marana that, spotting me, grinned in anticipation "Mmm wonder what he found this time. He's doing a little thingy for me, finding some books. But the poor dear got a bit confused. And came with a book called animal mating habits I think it was called. Almost fell of my barstool laughing''
I asked for Quiet's attention showing her the two ancient books "I've this for you from the Library. Marana over there asked me to take them and yeah, never listen Serv babbling around".
Quiet rubbed her paws together "Oooooooo what do you have there" so I handed Quiet both the"Voodoo dolls" and the"Curses" books.
She almost stumbled a bit to keep one of the books tried to slid away "Well looks like I have some reading to do"
"Just take care of them or they will rip me" I smiled looking the ancient tomes.
"Uuummm no worries I won't spill the milk on them I promise"
"Mmhmm would be a shame. Spilling that delicious milk..." Marana giggled and Quiet handed both the books back to me, her attention drew by Picket running past in the back.
She returned after few minutes slipping a little filled orb back away safely "Oh yea but there was no way to hit her with the little present"
Marana smelled the air picking up a scent becoming all to familiar to her ''sheee's here again..here we go again.... oww its you Shay''
Shaynee blinked looking over "ummm Hi"
''Saw someone walking up in the corner of my eye and thought it was one of those interlopers again.. hehe'' Marana turned to Picket finally back "Hey Picket.."
Shaynee stays back from Picket that stalked inside, and just flopped down on the floor, ignoring everything and everyone in sight. She held her arms around her knees, the flames burning around her, engulfing every inch of her. She didn't care though, she didn't even notice. All she could do is rock herself back and forth, back and forth.
"Shaynee can you help with Picket" asked Quiet to her wife that swallowed hard "Ummm.... I don't think she wants anyone near".

A wolf was sitting on the edge of the overhang. She turned and wrapping her legs around the support cable, she hung upside-down and looked under it and back into the FishCo. She looked at everyone from her position hanging over the edge by the cable, giving an awkward, upside-down nod to Quiet "Afternoon everyone.... anything fun going on down here"
"What.. the..'' Marana walked into the street and stared up at the lycan sitting on the edge of the roof, frowning and mumbling something to herself while Quiet glanced up "Well she is on fucking fire. I would guess for a demon that is ok but I would rather she not set everything in FishCo on fire".
The wolf smiled as she lifted herself up some to look at Marana "Don't worry about me... if I wanted to cause trouble for you, I would. Unless you want me more involved, I tend to have a soft spot for you guys.... either that, or I'm just bored stiff"

Picket was on fire and not far away from her the dried leaves of catnip were ready to burn.
Shaynee walked in slowly but staying near the door "Hey ummm Picket..."
Picket's flames suddenly burst higher and brighter as Shaynee approached, reaching half way to the ceiling. She began to scream in rage again with every step she took closer.
Quiet winced watching the flames "Thanks but so far I don't have an idea what to do"
Shaynee covered her ears "Ummm Picket....the kitties might be upset if you burn their catnip up, maybe we can go back to the Pit and search a revenge on Blue. Yeah... because she was playing with your body in the library"
The demoness on fire snarled and hissed at Shaynee, her voice no longer Picket's but deep, it came from within her and all around her "Let the cats buuuuurrrrrn". No doubt she still hated cats far more then Blue.

Marana let her hand slip into a pocket and pulled out a round cylindrical doggy snack, sniffing it.. "Yup still fresh" then looks at the lycan ''You want these hun? They still fresh.. and i can't stand the things..sooo''
The wolf laughed at the dog biscuit, "That makes two of us...." before looking back at Q and watching the light from the fire inside, "...might I suggest a few fire-extinguishers... the CO2 ones, not the flame retardant foam, so that the fire goes out and so does she...."
"Well don't think we can get close enough to use a fire extinguisher" stated Quiet and the wolf grinned "then throw it next to her... they explode under extreme heat, which would probably put out the flames... if not the CO2 will"
Shaynee took a deep breath as she stepped inside of the FishCo "There is this pup out there talking about putting you out with fire extinguishers, now we could let her come in and do that or we could go back to the Pit"

Marana shrugged, pushed the snacks in the gl of the rifle and turned her face in the general direction of Haven. She tilted the barrel upwards and let it rip with a satisfied smile on her face. The snacks shot of like bats out of hell arcing beautifully over the building in the back of the streets.. She probably stood there smiling to herself chuckling at the thought of the foul snack raining down a few streets further.

Taking advantage of the distracting shoot I stepped closer to Quiet "Is there someone of her family we can call to help her? I mean, one of her closest friend or so?"
Quiet just shrugged, her eyes on the burning demoness "Well that would be Blue but from what she said I think even Blue is pissing her off"

Picket stood slowly and walked out the door as she had heard the wolf's comment and suddenly her wrath was redirected.
She shrieked "DIE MUTT SCUM" her voice multiplying, becoming high and shill... sounding much like a multitude of angry ferrets. Her fire rose higher and brighter now, and she begun to fling it in waves at the wolf, trying to burn her alive.
The wolf looked up with an "Uh...oh" and dropped off the ledge, stepping into the street, to move away from the fire and probably to protect the FishCo form more damage.
Picket explodes another volley of fireblasts in the wolf's direction, her voice changing once more, now becoming the screams of millions of people in anguish "DIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"
The wolf dived to the side, skidding in the snow on her stomach, standing up and pulling blades, lifting her tail and putting out a small flame caught on the tip "Damnit, that's not very nice...." she rubbed some of the snow into the singed fur, looking at the demoness as if deciding for the hell of it to toss some at her.

Quiet, Marana and me backed off from the fighting area, trying to shield ourselves form the heat of the fire.

Picket McDonnell snarled, all reason gone from her, she was fulled solely by the wrath she had boiling inside her like a furnace. She began to chant "adeo mihi creatura of atrum" but suddenly she was smacked with snow. It broke her concentration and her flames flickered and died, but as the fire subsided roaches and and scorpions began to crawl out of every corner, every crack in the pavement and surrounding buildings. They headed straight for the wolf that looked around at the advancing skittering masses with a growled "You have got to be shitting me....".

Shaynee looked down seeing the bugs crawling all over the place "Gawd... bleck" she squeeled as she looked for a place to jump to.
Right. Shaynee. I pulled out one of the book from under my jacket and silently I moved behind Picket hoping that the demon attention was all for the wolf.
I safely reached the wooden stand where the shadow was sitting showing her the book "Madam do you think this one can be of any use right now?" but shook her head "No hun I don't know about Voodoo yet". Well, the wolf was unlucky in that turn.

The wolf looked at the all of us kitties momentarily before dancing to the side a bit away from some of the crawlers "None of you would happen to have a few industrial bug bombs would you..." but Picket smirked as her little minions crawled towards their goal. She barked at the wolf that was dancing further to the side, stepping on one of the larger crawlers as she came down, causing her foot to slide, sending her to the pavement with a rather loud clatter as her blades were knocked out of her hand. Her ankle made a rather awkward angle with the rest of her leg as she let out a rather loud howl of pain.She started to struggle to her feet again, several of the scorpions crawled onto her arms and legs, stinging her thrice before she was able to knock them off, causing her to grit her teeth and growl at the pain, grabbing her paw and wrenching it into alignment with another howl.

Picket began to cackle as she watched the wolf howl in pain. She became smug and let her guard down for a moment as she turned around to make a snowball, probably intending to toss it at her to add insult to injury -though she had to pay close attention to forming it, as it would melt in her hands if she wasn't very careful.
The wolf gritted her teeth and snarled as she took a dive at Picket, to knock into her and break her control over the insects, finding the opportunity too, worthwhile to waste, trying to cause them both to crash into the road-snow.

Picket toppled her face first into the snow as the wolf's weight hit her back, bashing her chin into the pavement and snapping her teeth together with a painful clacking sound. "FUUUUUUCK!" she screamed as she tried to scramble out of the snow, but couldn't seem to get out from under her. Tears of pain began to flow from her eyes, dropping onto the sidewalk with a hissing sound, the ground slowly being eaten away by the acid. Without her full attention the bugs went about their business and crawled away.
Shaynee jumped down seeing her sister take the fall running over towards them but keeping back some so as not to interfere and Quiet suddenly ran inside FishCo grabbing me with her going for the stairs."Quick gather up the snow near the edge so we can try and shove it off" she said running around, dropping to her knees and using her whole body to shove the snow towards the edge of the roof "we need to get our piles over where we can dump it on Picket".

Meanwhile the wolf grabbed one of the chains hanging from Picket's tail, tearing it off and slinging it around her neck and pulling back on it firmly, using it to garrote the demon.
"If she only moved a little closer..." I whispered to Quiet helping her to gather the snow and she nodded her agreement. "If you can pull her over we can help " she yelled down to the wolf standing behind the huge pile of snow.

Picket gagged but she didn't passed out since demons don't breath. It however did make it nearly impossible to swallow and the glue from her saliva began to pool on the ground in front of her. She used all her weight and strength to pull free of the chain, but only succeeded in slamming her face into her own glue mess and hopelessly stuck herself to the pavement. She growled, exhausted "I fucking give... you win"

The wolf heaved herself up, taking the demon at her word. She wanted evidently stop and heal her visibly broken and swollen ankle. She hobbled off to the side under the overhang, leaving the chain wrapped around Picket's neck. She unceremoniously dropped to the ground, to take pressure off her ankle.

Shaynee ran over towards Picket, to help her up. "Owowowowowowiiiieeeeeee! My face is glued to the pavement!" she screeched.
"What is there superglue on the road or something?" the pale skinned Shadow stopped pulling only to try to wiggle her fingers under her cheek.
Picket screamed in pain as her fingers wriggled in between the pavement and her skin "Shayyyyy huuurrry" her wrath seeming to subside for now, returning a bit to normal Picket.
Fire dripped from From Shaynee's fingertips as she wiggled her way across Picket's face, pulling it free from the pavement but looking as her hand was stuck to her face. "What the hell!" she started shaking her hand growling "LET GO!". She span both of them around where Picket's back was towards the FishCo.
"NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW" yelled Quiet shoving with her legs to push all the snow on top of Picket while Shaynee put her foot up onto Pickets stomach pushing against her trying to pull herself free.
Picket looked up rolling across the pavement quickly, just as the snow plopped behind her. She just looked up again and gave us all the finger.
But I was not helping Quiet. Shaynee was too close and I not wanted hit her by chance.

Marana let herself drop from the ledge to the ground and held a fieldflask out to the wolf ''Here, it will help against the pain" and the wolf smiled with a grit of her teeth, gladly taking the flask and opening it ".... thank you".
''Your welcome.. you need that bone set dear? I'm no mender but I have had my fair share in the past''.
"If you would be so kind, it's been a while since I've had to set my own bone... I'm out of practice".
Marana crouched down in front of the wolf ''better take a few more drinks of that bottle hun.. this gonna hurt..''

Shaynee got free and Picket rubbed her cheek where there was now a swollen area in the shape of Shaynee's hand. She grumbled a bit and stalking off she shouted "REVENGE"
Quiet watched Picket go and got a little grin. She hopped off to other roofs " take care of Jamie" she yelled back as she followed the demoness.
I took back the books I left on the windowsill dusting a snowflake from the cover following the demoness run until she turned the corner down the street.
At least, now she has a real reason to hate me.

No more potions

Servher glared at everyone.
Finn tilted her head and flattened her ears as she was glared at "What? What's wrong?".
Serv glared doubly at me just for effect and broke into a smile "Hello pretty kitties".
"I thought you were mad!" Finn grinned
"Nah I aint ever mad unless it is fun"
"Well, I get mad. It gives me a tummy ache" she snickered.

"Finn I have to tell you Noir beat my ass today" Serv said sitting near Finn that looked obviously surprised "Reeeally? Tell me the whole story, leave nothing out".
"Well see Noir had this snowball and she chunked it at me, I was like all dodge dive duck" he started to tell "then I scooped up a snowball and dove through the air and hurled it at her head and BAM a cloud of snow and she tumbled back, then she got her whip and beat my ass. Oh it hurt yeah but I put up a good fight".
"Sounds like fun..." Finn snickered "except when people hit me with snowballs, it always goes down my shirt"
"You don't like ice down your shirt?"
"Noooooo"

Serv looked behind Finn and grunted nodding and she looked behind her "Who are you nodding at?"
He pointed north and spoke soft "Quiet's wife was walking up but she turned".
Finn blushed "Ohh. I gotta go talk to her. Will you excuse me?"
"No"
Finn sighed "Yes.. I have to. I was wrong. Gimme a break Serv, it's hard enough to admit, as stubborn as I am".
He smiled concealing "Ok take a break"
Finn grinned and kissed his cheek running down the street.

She came back after few minutes, along with the Shadow we know as Quiet's wife.
"Yay she accepted my apology" she smiled with obvious relief.
The Shadow looked up at me "I was here looking for you". She leaned up on her tip toes "We do have the issue with your looks, if you don't mind following me back to the Pit, I will try to see if I can pull whatever remains of the potion out of you"
I stood feeling rather nervous. I knew she was there to help me but I couldn't help it.
Serv's eyes went wide as he spoke softly "Back to the Pit?"
She looked over at him "That's where all my supplies are" and he rocked back and forth shaking his head side to side "Oh well that makes sense".
"it's ok, she's going to help me" I reassured with a weak smile before follow her where I'd never thought to go for any kind of help.

The Pit was dark. Some braziers were burning in several corners of the large hall and a red glow barely lighted the place making difficult to see even to my feline eyes.
The air was dense of acrid smoke and something that reminded me somehow the vet...
The Shadow tapped a square dark altar "Ok hop up here".
"No reason to run away, she's going to help me" I said in my mind while I followed her instructions, laying on the dried-blood stained altar.

The Shadow watched me with a smile "Now don't move I need to get my stuff".
I was petrified, no need to ask, but she was fast and walked over laying sheets of paper by my waist, near my feet laying a ball of red yawn and a dagger.
"Do you have something, like a charm I could borrow?"
At the sight of the dagger I closed my eyes moving aside all the stories about sacrifices and demonic rites, focusing on her words "...yes... you can take it from my pocket. A necklace".
She reached into my pocket taking out the necklace, taking the little charm from it and placing the chain back into my pocket "Ok, there will be steps. Step one, I need you to be very still for, I will be using my mind to go inside of you to pull out the potion". She looked to me "I will need your mind open for me. So just relax and take deep breaths". She placed the charm on my forehead as her other hand ran over my throat.
"Are you ready?".
I was unable to speak so I closed my eyes again taking a deep breath while my heart was bouncing against my chest. Feeling ready to potentially die I nodded.
She closed her mind as she started to chant softly. A fireball floated above my face, sliding into my nose, as I inhaled.
I was amazed at the fact there was no burn but I felt a warmth inside my mind. Her hand ran from my throat down over my body as the fireball followed inside of my body.
I felt the heat melt inside me and I shivered when the fire engulfed the last of the potion causing a shift to my shape back to male.

From ✖ ToXic Noir ✖

The fire split up inside my body replacing the cells that caused me the ability to shape shift into cells that make me feel... extremely smart.
She picked up the charm as she spoke once more "Now, the second step,".
The Shadow grabbed the yawn placing it on my stomach as she picked up the dagger taking the end of the yarn threading it through the charm.
She looked at me "This part is very important for you to remember".
I nodded panting, my forehead beaded with sweat, a new feeling growing inside my awareness.
She cut the yarn with her dagger as she laid it back down tying it around my neck "I bind you Noir from drinking any potions" she repeated three times in a soft chant "Keep this around your neck to protect you from drinking any potions that are not good for you".
My attention was all for the melodic voice chanting in a strange language. Among the incomprehensible words I understood something that seemed to be very important "Potions.. not good to me".

She smiled "How do you feel now?" she asked moving her hand to help me up.
With my lips still on the last word I stared the ceiling. All went silent for a long moment, all went dark. The echo of the melodic voice reverberate against my conscience making me blink and focusing the world around. I glanced up the pale lady with a weak smile and slowly I stood, rubbing my face.
She grinned as she looked up at me "Take your time, I wouldn't want you to get dizzy". She grabbed her dagger and the ball of red yarn along with the papers from the lessons.
"You may want to get some paper and pen from the Coven or Library because I have a feeling you will be finding new words to use on your enemies" she suggested smiling.
I felt gradually better, my body switched to the usual myself.
"Thank you very much Madam" I said with my usual rather male voice "I'm in debt with you".
She raised an eyebrow as a joker like grin "Think nothing of it and you can call me Shay".
"Shay. Beautiful name".
Her pale cheek blushed a bit "Now you better run back before they get worried about you and think I'm torturing you".
Was true, plus we were not alone. I stepped closer to her reaching out an hand to grab hers. I found myself kneeling and daring to kiss her pale hand.
"I will not forget your help" I just said and before someone could find it improper I stood and walked out, revived.

Just another day in Toxia

You don't really need to kill yourself to bump in odd situations in Toxia.
Well, if you're lucky enough.
That day I felt lucky so I walked down the street to the Voodoo Shop with the hope to meet someone inclined to share some information about potions, shapeshifting and sprouting tits.
But I stopped as I spotted a gathering of demons and two.. mutants.
One of them, with mixed features of a cow and a duck, was standing with a furious look in her eyes, running up behind another with a tiger head. Leaning close she looked like she was going to bellow "Squeek squeek squeek squeek squeek squeek squeek squeek" was all she was able to express.
A woman stepped outside the shop hearing the noise and looked to see what was happening. "What in the hell..?"
The cow-duck, whining like an excited horse, reached for her sword with her wing. Batting at it over and over before figuring she couldn't grab it any more.
"I heard moaning and ass slapping.. kinda wondering why I decided to brave coming outsid--" the woman looked over to the thing that made the horse sound."Oh god.."
"Just another day in Toxia" stated a masked man sitting arm crossed by the entrance of the shop.
"Another fucked up day..." the woman commented eyeing the thing, deciding it might be wise to keep her mouth shut.
The 'thing' tried for the sword with her other hand. A dull think was heard about when her cloven handed hit the hilt. She snorted shaking her head swinging around her horns, then she turned and left in a huff.

From ✖ ToXic Noir ✖

She padded to the FischCo and jumped awkwardly on the cantilever roof.
"Holey shit there is something on our awening Noir". I almost jumped hearing Serv's voice. He stared mouth agape trying to reason what it was. "Did you speak to it yet?" he whispered out the side of his mouth. "Nope but if you get a little closer it smells like Quiet...".
"You think it ate quiet?" he gasped.
The mutant glanced down and looking like she was going to yell just "Squeek squeek squeek" like a little mouse.
"It has Quiet's saber swords look it" he nudged me "I think it is Quiet, go touch it ".
"Hmm... I've seen it near the voodoo shop some minutes ago..."
The mutant hoped down and slowly walked closer on unsteady hoofs.
"Woah god it came down" Serv looked as it wobbled closer "Oh shit Quiet?"
"Bbbbaaaaaaa bbabaaaaaaaaaa bbbabaaaaaa" the mutant shook her head up and down.
"See it is Quiet" Serv looked at me "don't be scared go closer"
"Err... Quiet? But... but it..she has horns!"
Serv sighed "Ok stay here, if it eats me aveng me".
The mutant barked suddenly.
He stared into it's eyes "Oh fuck Quiet sweety what have you done?" asked as she huffed and pointed her wing in the direction of the voodoo shop.
He touched the wing as it extended "Damn, the Coven. You drank something?" he turned to me "Noira come closer it is Quiet and she is fucked bad"
The mutant Quiet shaked her head and thumped her chest with the cloven hoof; heaver than her hand and harder she knocked her self off her cloven feet.
"I've told you, something happened to the Voodoo shop. I've seen another mutant with a tiger head".
Serv tried not to chuckle but couldn't help it "No no be still Quiet be still"
She shivered and started balking and clucking.
"Ok I'll go ask, Noir you watch it ..erm her"
I helped her to sit while she holded up her cloven, barking and growling glancing up.
Someone started laughing hard. The pack leader and his she-wolf were staring Quiet. "My god!! What the fuck is that!!!" Wotan pointed frantically.
"Bawk bawk bawk bbbbbbbawk bbbbbbbbbawk"
Aaryanna Parx placed a hand on her stomach as she laughed even harder... She was almost doubling over she was laughing so hard.
"The fuck?!!" Wotan stopped "Wait a minute..Chicken!!!"
Serv came back and talked to Quiet like she was deaf " QUIET I brung Callieh to help, stay calm"
"Quick call the Wolves!! We are having Chicken!!" Wotan hoped up and down but Calleigh glanced at Wotan and groaned "No eating faction leaders!".
Quiet snorted slashing at the air with her horns
"Hey... He did it before.. Why not now?" Aaryanna stated.
Calleigh grumbled darkly not having much to say to that one, kneeling down next to the Quiet creature. "Well it's apparently stupid to ask you to talk.. or..cluck..or.. well fuck."

Zoie suddenly ran off screaming "They are everywhere!!!!"
Quiet pointed a wing at the screaming feline and started quacking.
Zoie ran up to the others trying to keep composure and asked through grinned teeth " do you have a razor . . . anyone ?"
Quiet shaked her head and pointed at Zoie and then pointed up to the second floor of FishCo.
My sister was acting weird after a bad meet with some Shadows and I knew that Quiet had a cure for her. "Yes... yes we have one, Zoie" I said with a smile "we have a very nice razor up here. Please, follow us so you can get it".
Serv hugged Zoie "Come on upstairs we can fix it".
Zoie dug her claws in her own leg screaming "Get off get off get off!!" and Serv whispered "Of course I will get the razor for you come along".
Zoie realized we were speaking of a razor and said with a plastic smile "I'll need to be alone with it if you don't mind".
Noir Dreadlow pads a little more closer to Zoie "Sure, we just show you where find it. This way" I moved few steps to the doorway and smiled to her.
She placed her hand on the stub that once was her beautiful white tail trying to hide the severd spot, she clawed her leg once more and followed me upstairs where
she grabbed me by the hair and got inches away form her face saying with grinned teeth "I must stop them, you hear me".
"..yes, yes I'll help you.." I winced gesturing to Serv to reach the couch.
She let go my hairs and cried covering her face "They won't shut up they are telling me awful things and I should die" she slashed mid air with her claws.
Serv grabbed between the cushion and produced a vial and passed it to me, trying to restrain her "Be still Zoie I'll help listen to Noir sweety".
She wiggled away slightly saying forcefully "Ahhhhhh I don't know who is talking to me your all running together shuuut up!!!"
Serv pulled at Zoie's arms trying to restrain her now in a full bear hug as she kicked and ranted "Calm down let me get them Zo", so I grabbed the vial and reached out the free hand towards Zoie's face to caress her cheek "Shhh, we're going to kill them all"
Zoie cried out distracted from all the voices at once not fully hearing either kitty and too distracted to realize either of them dug her claws in the arms around her seeing demons all over and around them.
Serv squeezed harder feeling her claws dug deep into his arm and the warm blood ran to his elbow. He grunted "Hurry make her drink it Noir".
She was not listening, lost in her mad illusions. "I'm sorry Zo" I whispered and quickly I uncorked the vial, grips her mouth and pours the liquid in her mouth plugging it.
Serv, surprised by her sudden strength, wrapped his leg about hers and applies his full weight, her claws digging out of his arm the flesh splays back with his shirt "Noir hold it shut make her swallow" he said as they stumbled about in the struggle while Zoie choked and sputtered the blood.
She finallywent limp in Servher's arms, exhusted from hours of fighting the demons, tried to regain her breath.
We carried her on th couch "There finally some good comes from coming to meetings" Serv hoofed while I took place near her.
"Stay with her sweety, it may be a while before she wakes up" he said before turn to bolt downstairs.
Zoie began breathing hard and shivering harder as thought ice ran through her veins, fully unaware of anyone in her presence, only dreams of the hidious demons and her tail. The only thing needed was resting and let her relax so I caressed her locks, kissing her forehead "It's over Zoie, they're gone. Now you're with us, with your family".
She flinched then opened her eyes partially and whispered "Thanks Onyx... " then she falled back to sleep, voices and demons gone jsut exhustion.
I felt tears in my eyes hearing her calling my old name. I leaned on her, kissing again her forehead for a long moment. "Sleep well Cookie" I whispered caressing her cheek "I love you" and slowly I stood up, letting her rest.

"You want me to shatter your puny little brain with what I know about the shadows? Guess what, I don't care what you think you know about me. I couldn't care less than I do about whatever respect you think you deserve".
Finn's voice was full of anger as I approached the sidewalk outside FishCo.
Serv raised his voice for the second time ever in Toxia "Finn please".
"Finn, you realize you being an ass to my wife". Quiet finally was again herself.
"Again do I know you? No... Do I know my family? Yes... Did you know that Picket and Quiet have played around before with spells and magic in the past? Which I keep saying but apparently you aren't catching on". The pale skinned woman, Quiet's wife, was standing arm crossed near our Leader.
Finn grumbled and sighed, then cleaned her claws.
"Noir show me that green potion so I can drink it and understand this shit" Serv was evidently exasperated.
During this past days I've learned to appreciate that feline's humor and kindness.
But even in girly features I was -and I am- still unable to understand female psychology. I smiled at him while he made his way inside FishCo and I just waited I for the tension to calm.
That shadow was right: just another day in Toxia.

A dark sense of humor

picture by Finn McCellan

Dante glances to each of the kitties, then with a subtle deep tone he questions "Where's Finn?"
Cecily edges to the door.
Servher pipes up "I think she must have his shirt and he is cold "
Dante looks from Serv to Cece "I need to speak with her a moment"
Mai "About your shirt?"
Cecily "Well, why do ya need to speak to her for a moment?"
Servher Welles smiles.
Dante points to both Mai and Serv, still looking at Cece "I'm not in a mood for games, please tell them to hush".
Cecily looks to the two "Chill for a moment please?".
Servher scowles " damn and I was just going to ask for a hand of goldfish".
Shaynee walks up behind Dante with a smile.
Dante nods and continues "Finn...where is she?".
Cecily sighs "Dante I asked why you needed her".
Dante glances behind him a moment before returning his gaze towards Cece "And I heard, perhaps when she's being spoken to...I can speak with you about it".
"How about we tell her you would like a conversation when we see her next?" says Servher "Kind of like tag not to press the whole game thing".
"Well.. whats up?" asks Cecily.
Servher smiles at Mei "Hiyas again".
Mei smirks, "Hi kitten".
Dante closes his eyes a moment, his shadows steaming from his shoulders and rushing around the current group....finally returning to his being his eyes open slowly. "She's not here" he states as he turns back to his family. Waving a hand towards the rest of the city and towards the North, "Spread out, find her".
Shaynee nods and walks away.
Cecily steps forward "Whoa.. hold up. What the fuck is up? Why do you need her so bad?"
Mei nods and pivots her frame towards the south and dashes off.
Dante's eyes haze with dark figures "When she's found...you'll be filled in." Then turns to make his leave.
Cecily "Nope... tell me " she walks in front of him "Your not *CENSORED*ing with my family members Dante".
Dante pauses midstep and turns his head calmly towards Cece, "Then perhaps keep your own kittens in check before they try their little acts", and sidesteps heading past the vet.
Cecily shrugs her shoulder "Keep your little demons in check and perhaps our little kittens would be also".
Cecily opens her phone and goes to walk inside "I need you guys to walk around and try to find Finn, and if you do bring her home".
"Wonder what's up with Finn.." she muttles "ok.. I'll head west".
Noir doesn't know how this Finn looks like...
Cecily hands Noir a picture "Here, since ya haven't met her yet".
Noir looks at it and nods.
Cecily "We cant let them get her".


Noir looks at the stray "Hey Finn! Please come to FishCo".
Finn grins and nods "Hi".
Noir smiles a little worried glancing around.
"Ok. What's up?" asks Finn.
"Hum, better coming there, Cece will explain it, I think".
Isabella Sideshow holds the silver steak in her hand and lets out a screach for her family to here "I have her . . ."
Finn tilts her head and scrunches her brows "Alright. Are you coming?"
Noir glares the stranger with the silver thing in her hand and follows the kitten.

Celebratemy pulls out her cell calling Ceci
Noir takes his phone and calls Cece but puts it away noticing Cele "Go ahead"
Celebratemy "Finn where you been. You in trouble?"
"Idon't think so.. I was fishing"
"Well you should go inside and hide" says Cele
Finn blinks, looking back in forth from Cele to Noir."Hide from what?"
Cecily "Gawd there you are".
Noir nods "I've found her near the KA place, she was alone"
Celebratemy "Idk, sounds like there's a problem"
Cecily looks over to Stralack.
Finn: "Well, I didn't know those fish were endangered"
Stralack looks to Cecily and then to Finn as she walks off
Cecily: "Problem?"
Stralack "No...no problem...."
Cecily smiles "good.. good". She twiddles her hand in the air and waves "C ya"
Finn: "What's going on?"
Celebratemy whispers "Did you do anything to any shadows?"
Finn "Whaddya mean?"
Celebratemy "Where you by their base?"
Cecily steps closer to Finn
Finn arches a brow and studies her closely "uh uh"
Celebratemy shrugs "Maybe we should all talk inside"says looking over at Starlack
Finn: "ok.."
Noir looks at Cece "Why don't we just ask to him?"
Finn is confuzed
Cecily nods "Good idea"
Noir glances the white demon approaching.
Stralack looks to Finn, "Finn, would it be okay if you would come for a walk with me?"
Finn "A walk?"
Stralack nods
Cecily answers for her "No.."
Mei: "We don't want to hurt you. We simply want to talk."
Stralack: "I was not talking to you Cecily..."
Cecily: "Well I believe I'm speaking to you.."
Stralack: "Well I am not so watch what you say to me...."
Finn tilts her head, hikes a brow and tugs on her ear in uneasy confusion. "Why not just tell me what's going on?"
Mei: "We'll explain if you walk with me.I will not harm you"
Cecily smiles "Hard to take something back that's already happened eh?"
Finn: "where do you suggest we walk?"
Mei: "Just follow me. We need to have a talk."
Cecily: "You take her.. I'm going with you"
Mei: "No.This is for Finn only.""
Noir looks at the snow demon "Don't touch her Finn, she could freeze you"
Cecily raises her brow "Oh really?"
Celebratemy: "Sorries it doesnt work like that"
Mei shakes her head, "I will not touch you, Finn."
Finn shakes her head to Noir "I won't. I just want to know what's the big deal.. I'm little miss popular all the sudden"
Cecily shakes her head and laughs "Get out of my face little boy.."
Noir nods a little worried
Mei: "Finn, I'm asking nicely. Please come with me."
Celebratemy: "Finn you stay right here. Thought you didn't want to hurt her?"
Stralack raises a brow and chuckles, "Little boy? you must not know who I am..."
Cecily holds her hand between her chest and Stralack "Get.. out of my face. Are you *CENSORED*ing deaf?"
Stralack shakes his head, "Well...you said get out of my face.....I was never in your face but I am next to you if that is what you were referring to....."
Cecily smirks "See this little space between us? Your in my *CENSORED*ing face"
Mei: "Stralack... we can settle this peacefully.Finn... I just want to speak with you"
Stralack sighs "Apparently you do not understand the English language.....I am not 'in' your face....."
Cecily rolls her eyes and mumbles something about her bubble and shoe polish on the guys coat
Mei: "Please, come with me."
Cecily shrugs "Let me rephrase..if you were any closer to me you'd be in my vaj.."
Finn winces at the amount of tension
Mei: "Finn, I've asked you several times...Will you come with me or not on your own accord?"
Shaynee walks over to Mei then to the one Quiet calls Finn smiles ever so sweetly
Finn chews her lip, looking uneasy and backs up a step or two
Cecily looks inside and sees Jason "Is this a *CENSORED*ing hotel?" then turning to Finn "Finn hunny, go inside"
Noir looks at Cece then to the white demon "Well, if it's only a talk you'll not mind if some of us will stay around out of 'hearing zone', just checking that she will not be harmed?"
Finn nods to Cecily, still confused, looking back over her shoulder
Mei: "If that is your wish, but I simply wish to speak to her alone in the Pit"
Cecily draws her attention to Mei "Why do ya need her.."
Mei "That is a private matter."
Dante casually enters through the back door of Fish Co, walking past the couch he gives Jason a nod as he approaches Finn from behind. Stopping just short of her, his voice echos through his chest "Evening, Finn"
Finn jumps about three feet off the ground
Cecily shakes her head then turning to hear Dante's voice
Finn: "Evening.. What's going on?"
Noir sighs
Finn "Yesterday no one knew me, today everyone knows my name.."
Cecily "Get out.." she takes Finn by the arm "Go sit down love"
Dante nods sincerely to Cece "Mhmm, you know I'm good for my word. I'll be leaving with this one" pointing to Finn "So she can be spoken to."
Finn looks around with a frown, her ears flattening with worry for the other prowlers and apparent danger she brought on them, she looks behind her ready to bolt.
Cecily raises her brow "And you know I'm good for mine to Dante, no.. your not"
Shaynee walks in behind Finn putting her hand on her shoulder "That's not true.... I knew you from the party"
Finn mews and lets out a low feline growl
Celebratemy looks around the suddenly crowed room, curious as to whats this is all about.....stand up touching to get a better look
Mei extends her hand to grip Finn on the shoulder as frost accumulates where she touches her and a dread chill runs through the feline's body, "You will come with us."
Shaynee: "Oh wait... No I've known you since before then you were looking for Lei I believe *smiles and stays close looking around* where is Quiet?"
Dante grins devilishly behind his mask as he turns his body towards Cece now "..We've been through much Cece, and you know when something needs to be done, or I want something...I get it" then nods towards Finn, yet still speaking to Cece "And what I want...is a talk with the little one here."
Finn: "Talk? Is this about me not being nicer to superior beings? because.. I've really been working on that."
Cecily "You wanna talk with her? you either do it here, or let me come with you all"
Finn nods
Dante smirks and shrugs "Sure, you may accompany her...the rest stay here, and you'll be checked at the door while she comes inside to be spoken to. You can watch from there."
Noir looks the snow demon hand on Finn's arm and frowns remembering her words
Celebratemy "Will be near I will go where I want"
Cecily shakes her head "No.. im going in there with her. take the offer. if not, shes not going with you"
Jason lowers his hand from his chin, causing the light reflecting off his watch to lower to the floor, he is quiet and gentally rolls his wrist to change the position of the orb
Finn jerks her hand away and jumps back with a hiss
Shaynee looks to Dante and smiles moving her hand out to Finn's "Ready to go?" hearing the hiss thinking she has a little spit fire in her.
Finn scuffs the toe of her shoe on the ground and chews her lip, her ears going flat as she whispers to Cecily.
Dante snickers, his head tilting to one side as he looks to Cece in amusement "You've always had claws...I'll give you that. However, you made one negotiating point...and that was the last. Either you come and get checked at the door, or we can simply take her by force?" Looking around Fish Co a moment he shrugs "Hate to mess this place up...I've grown fond of it."
Celebratemy prepares to follow placing her blades on her hips.....
Finn nods to Cecily
Cecily "Fine.. I'll come"
Finn "can't you just give a hint what this is about.."
Cecily looks around "But everyone who isn't a part of this family, I want you gone from here when I leave..And I want you kittens to stay put.."
Shaynee nods "at the Pit we will" shakes her hand for Finn to take it.
Celebratemy looks and frowns
Noir notices another shadow advancing from the back door and does the easy math
Finn looks at Shaynee's hand and shakes her head "No thank you. I can walk on my own"
Dante lets out a small sound of laughter from deep within his mask "Oh, they'll be coming...no worries." Looking to Shay he nods towards Finn, accompany her in front "Please...Shadows, follow behind Cece and myself"
Shaynee nods and allows her to take the first step.
Mai: "Uggh.. we can't just sit here while they slaughter the two of them.. did you see how many of them there were!! I don't care what Cece said, I'm not gonna let them get hurt"
Noir looks at Mai "Please don't give the shadows a reason to break the promise to be quiet"
Mai: "Hehe.. I won't.. just want to make sure nothing happens.. I don't trust them."
Noir nods and sighs and suddenly has an idea on how reach the Pit's roof without being noticed.

Noir rushes to the Voodoo Shop and looks around in search for a shop assistant "Anybody here?"
Noir looks at the little colored bottles lined on the shelf and figures out the writing on the labels tranlslating something like "Poison" -hum no- "Healing" -useful but no- "Shapeshift" He giggles "Yatta!"
Noir Dreadlow takes it and runs away.

Mai: "Hey"
Noir: "Hyas" he shows her the bottle just stolen
Mai: "nice"
Noir: "have you ever used one of this?"
Mai: "nope"
Mai: "what do they do?"
Noir looks down at it "Hum, it says shapeshifter. I'm going to try it"
Mai: go for it
Noir nods
Mai: "where'd you get it?"
Noir coughs a little "Err... in the Voodoo shop"
Mai laughs along "well I'm gonna go check on Celeb"
Noir nods

I ran towards a dark corner and uncorked the potion sniffing the content. "Oh well, let's hope it will work" I said, and shrugging I quaffed it.
There was no pain, no particular sensations. Just the point of view changed. Looking down I noticed that the ground was closer than usual.
"Meow?" I said trying to spell a word but I was just able to yowl.

Mai: "Noir.. is that you?"
Noir mews
Mai: "We need to get the the back rail.. do you know the way?"
Noir shakes his head
Mai: "Ok.. well I'm gonna go find it"
Noir turns and mews slightly

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Legion nods pleasantly to the feline before the Fishco, looking down to the sidewalk for a moment. Stepping inside the Fishco, She draws the fan over the floor in a wide sweeping motion, and something begins to materialize there
Cecily heads to the doorway "Get.. out! Put her down and leave.."
Shaynee follows Legion and Cecily in "Ask nicely"
Cecily "Im telling you.. put her down."
Celebratemy "she can lay on the couch"
Shaynee shrugs and says again "Ask nicely"
Cecily puts her hand on her sword "Put her.. the fuck down"
Shaynee walks over to the hello kitty rug and just drops her
Legion smiles pleasantly as the form of Hello kitty appears on the floor, waving hello. She looks to Shaynee, bobbing Her head towards the blanket.
Cecily looks at Finn again and grins, thinking in her head of there next trick being a little more vicious "Well.. thanks for walking her home"
Legion reaches into Her kimono, producing a small form of a pig, and a small turtle, laying the small plush animals near to Finn
Shaynee looks at Cecily after she drops Finn on the floor "would have put her down nicely ya know" starts to chuckle and looks to Legion
Dante briskly passes through the entrace to Fish Co, waving his hand in a small circular gesture befoer Cece "Well?...the need for tempers to fly?"
"Alright.. get the fuck out" Cecily says drawing her swords to her hands.
Celebratemy gets on the floor besides finn, carefully placing a oxygen mask on her face....setting it at 2.0 l. She checks her pulse........looks at her watch.....
Cecily Fhang lowers her arms straight to her side, her swords dangeling on the cement causing a distinct scratching noise. She lowers her eyes in dantes direction with another growl "get them out"
Legion turns to Shaynee, and the others there, nodding that the job is finished, and looking round to the Prowlers. Her whispers drift down round the Fishco "We thank you kindly for your gift. We hope you treasure Our's giving bvack to you." and turns around to walk out
Celebratemy pulls out a needle taking some blood preparing it to be sampled
Shaynee yawns and awaits for Legion command eyeing the kitty that is getting the swords too close to her
Stralack turns around and walks away knowing that being here is no longer needed.....
Celebratemy runs a scanner over her torso "shes fine she just needs some sleep" standing up wiping her knees off
Vishous leans up against the wall and simply watches letting her eyes gaze over the room, crossing her feet at her ankles occasionally checking her nails and picking at them
Mai glares at the 'doggy' in the back
As Legion steps out the door, and onto the street, each of the plushies stirs just slightly, inching a little closer to Finn. As they start to grow, however, they fall upon her vishously, plying her flesh with jaws of needle teeth, and howls of fury
Cecily points her sword at dante "Did you hear me? get the out"
Celebratemy "follow the leader" she giggles
Quiet walking over to the entrance of her home looks a little suprised at all the guests
Shakirah walks in to find her friend surrounded by Shadows and inquires " Hey CeCe....do you need a hand?"
Dante grins, winking to her casually "Mhmm...as much as i'd love to play with your claws, perhaps a bit later." then turns over his right shoulder to face the door "Shadows, let's go home."
Shaynee walks over and looks at Dante with a smile nodding
Legion getting briefly up on it's hind legs, the turtle exerts it's weight upon the pig, pushing it back, then turning back to sink it's needle fangs into Finn's throat
Quiet looks down at the plushies as she mutters" did that move?
Noir glances the feline laying on the strange carpet
Finn moans and shudders as the plushies tear at her flesh
Cecily looks to lorne and then down to the kitten, noticing something funny about the stuffed animals
Noir moves closer sniffing the thing
Celebratemy runs inside hearing Finn scream
Cecily tilts her head slightly "What the fuck! There eating her"
Cecily steos closer and goes to kick the animals off of the blanket
Noir blinks and looks at the plushies
Noir claws the one close to him
Mai kicks the animal closeby
The pig snarls, lunging back at the turtle, but missing, as the turtle turns glowing red eyes upon Noir
Noir gives a low growl
The pig is kicked, rolling away slightly
Cecily follows the pig, attempting to kick it the rest of the way out the door
Celebratemy shoots the stuffed animal and stuffing flies...the pig is no more
Mai claws at the turtle
Quiet circling around the cat and turtle she draws her blades
Noir extends a sharp claw and rips the back of the turtle, stepping a little back, a clear invite to follow him
Celebratemy takes aim and shoots the turtle twice stuffing looks of snow in fish co...its crumbles
The pig had righted itself with some effort, bending low to marshall itself for a lunge back at Mai, growling hideously as it's fabric lips pull backl across it's very fleshy looking gums. It explodes into a cloud of fluff as the bullet rips it
Shakirah gasps. "What the hell are those things?"
Quiet yelps as she nearly gets hit with shrapnel from the guyshot
The turtle had inclined it's head, growling low at Noir. It's head comes off, however, as it's body bursts, but still the head snarls, snapping it's jawes at Noir's hind legs
Shakirah "By the way....you have a visitor , Q. He is waiting for you on the boat out back."
Mai stabs her sword straight through the head, pinning it down for it's last goodbyes
Quiet Thunders shaking her head she swings her drawn blades towards the head but hold up short seeing Mai was a little faster than she
Noir gives a yowl of surprise and steps back a little further
Mai twister her blade, thus ripping the head into two, vanquishing it once and for all
Cecily bends down, her eyes scavaging over the kitten "Noir.. go get the medical box from upstairs please"
Noir nods and rushes up
Shakirah keeps an eye on the front and back of the Prowler base of operations to make sure no one sneak attacks her friends.
Cecily pulls finn towards her, bringing her to roll over on her back and puts her hand on her face "I hope they know this only means were going to get them back twice as hard"
Finn bleeds and shivers, her eyes open but are glassy and rolled back. She weakly raises a hand to swat a halluciation away and makes whimpers a bit pathetically.
Being cloth, though the gums drip with slobber, the head is no match for the blade. It heaves a sickenning rattle, cleaved in two with a wet hollow *clitch* sound
Cecily oulls her face away quickly to avoid the swat
Noir drops the medical box near Cece's feet and meows slightly
Cecily shifts her body to rest on her legs, "Ok Mai.. i need you to come here and get outa cloth, medical pads, gauz, and the alcohol
Heart is almost afraid to ask, "Is she gonna be alright?"
Cecily opens one of Finns eyelids
Finn 's eyes are dialated, glassy as if drugged and in shock. she mews a little and growls, not seeing the prowler in front of her, but something terrifying. Her mouth curves downward and she tries to pull or roll away.
Heart walks closer to Shakirah and whispers, "Where the hell have you taken us?"
Mai takes the gauze and alcohol in hand
Cecily pulls finns legs out and crinkles her brows a little "No fins, stop.. its cece. calm down"
Shakirah responds. " These are my friends...and when they are in trouble i help them. They would do the same for you or I."
Mai applies the alchool to the gauze "now stay still.. this will sting a little.."
Finn lets out a soft little yowl and closes her eyes to concentrate on Cece's voice. She shudders and winces, sucking in a breath.
Cecily holds the kittens hands down with one hand and attempts to calm her by scratching behind her ear with the other
Finn stills even more, relaxing as she feels the comforting scratch behind her ear. She purrs and shivers, her chin trembling a bit
Cecily moves her body to the left giving room for mai to work, then nodding to her "go ahead kitten.."
Noir meowing softly, curls near Finn purring to help her to relax
Mai finishes wrapping the last of Finn's wounds
Finn still trembles and shudders, occasionally winces with pain but is greatly comforted by the nearness of other kitties. Her eyes stay mostly closed, for each time she opens them, her glazed gaze seems to focus on something unseen. something terrible
Cecily rolls finn to her side and stands up "Ok, let her rest for awhile"
Mai "they really did a number on her.."
Cecily folds her arms lookin down to finn "wait til we get our little number in"
Finn starts to revive a bit, not as out of it, feeling much better now that she's bandaged.

From ✖ ToXic Noir ✖

Noir thinks it's a good idea let her rest on the comfy FichCo couch
Shakirah is relieved to see that Finn is going to be ok. " I take it the Shadows are a lil pissed about the other night and wanted revenge. "
Noir walks a little towards the couch and mews to Finn
Finn turns and rolls a bit, she stumbles as she brings herself up and decides to sort of cruch / crawl to the couch.
Noir helps her offering his back
Finn takes the help gratefully, purring weakly to Noir
Noir waits that Finn is properly resting and looks at the boiling thing on the stove, tilting his head
Finn smiles at them weakly. "Thank you. Thank you so much"
Noir whishes he had hands to offer something hot for the kitten. He now thinks was a bad idea quaffing that potion
Shakirah Savira grabs Heart and heads out to the street. " We will give you time to get Finn together. H and I are goin out to see if we can find out anything else. We'll return in a while to make sure she is ok. "
Finn scoots a bit, offering part of the couch to the kitty, eager to share warmth.
Noir jumps on the couch and curls up near Finn
Quiet wanders over to Finn looking down with a little nervious smile
Finn blinks with sleepy somewhat glassy eyes at quiet and gives a shakey smile. She cuddles with Noir a bit, trembling as they share warmth
Celebratemy "Mai you were wonderful tonight"
Celebratemy "thanks for standing wif me against that doggie guy"
Mai "no problem, I had to. Couldn't let anything happen to anyone"
Celebratemy nods in agreement
Finn cuddles with Noir and shudders a bit, drawing a shaky breath "Guess they didn't think our joke was as funny as we did."
Noir sniffs Finn's left ear and starts to lick it
Quiet "um Finn are you ready to talk?"
Finn's chin trembles and she squeezes her eyes shut tight for a moment. she hugs noir tight and then nods, drawing a long breath. "yes." she says, her voice just barely above a whisper. "Yes." She says again, more clearly this time.
Quiet smiling softly she kneels dowm beside the couch. Bitting her lip she humms for a second before starting " You are quite the trooper hun. Um I can guess this had to do with the little prank we played. So I guess they grabed you at some point tody?
Noir licks her ear again purring softly
Finn licks her lips to moisten them and squares her shoulders. She shudders remembering and opens her mouth to start speaking but can't seem to find the right words. she closes her mouth and considers. "Well, .. Thank you" She blushes a little, encouraged and flattered by the compliment. "I went fishing for most of the day.
When I got back to town, almost immediatly i ran into Noir." She gives him a scratch behind the ear. "He said that he heard there was some kind of trouble and I should go to the Fishco. There was a shadow nearby, yelling about how they found 'her' . i didn't know they meant me.
So we came here." She takes another breath and absently teases the edges of the bandages on her arm. "Some of the other prowlers were here, and then shadows. That one.. Shaynee she kept asking me to go on a walk with her, and Celeb and the others said no, and I should come inside. so i did. But that one.. Dante was in here. Behind me.
It was getting to be a standoff, and I was worried that kitties would get hurt because more and more shadows were showing up. And I thought, if they know it was me, the plushies, they'll hurt me but i didn't want everyone hurt if we could avoid it.. I wanted to run, but i thought they might not just follow me.. Anyway then Cece made up her mind and agreed we'd go with them to the pit.
Quiet nods slowly listening and smiling proudly at how well Finnn was doing after all this
Finn shudders and licks her dry lips again. "Once we were there, that Dante ushered me inside and kept the other kitties outside." She closes her eyes for a moment and steadies herself. She plays absently with the bandages and cuddles closer to Noir for comfort. "While i was in there, there was one with big tentacles, and that Dante and Shaynee.. and some more.. Have you been in there? it's hot and smells like burned things..
"Anyway this other one showed up and.. she scared me the most. She was.. elegant. but not in a good way. Asian i think.. beautiful and she hid her face with a mask but that was even more terrible, that i couldn't see all of her. you know? She said that they appreciated the gifts but they weren't the right style. I offered to go find the person who did it.. just in case. I mean, why would i come right out and say it was us?
Quiet sniffles shaking her head " Yeah I am sure a little scary with them all surrounding you
Finn says "She got close to me... and.. It gets hazy. Yeah they were all around and I didn't have a real exit and i knew if the others heard me scream they'd be inside.. but i didn't want anyone to get hurt and i didn't want to scream if i wasn't in real danger.. and they weren't hurting me...
Noir narrows his eyes remembering when months ago the same elegant Lady was in the cyber's place, supporting the experiment on the now Pack leader
Finn tenses a bit and trembles a little, tears welling up in her eyes. "But then that one, the asian lady thing, she got real close to me and put her hand on me and then i felt a sting. sharp.. like a shot.. It didn't hurt too bad.. but.. i didn't think it was good.. It felt like a bee sting..
Then I started getting dizzy.. and I kept seeing little... ratbats.. or something..
I don't know, some dark furry little tumor things.. with rat eyes and teeth.. running around, and I was trying to step out of their way.. I lost my bearings.. I couldn't stay up straight.. then i woke up here.
Quiet nods" so do we have any idea how long they had you uncontious"
"Well.. i don't think it was that long.. cece and noir were outside.. so it couldn't have been that long... i don't think.
Noir mews a nod
Quiet sighs reachs toawrds Finn but holds back figuring better to not accidently shifter her causing her kitty more pain than she already has received
Finn jolts slightly and sucks in a breath but reaches toward Quiet, eager to be comforted by the touch of a familial kitty as she is with Noir
"I hope .. well next time we'll just plan our joke better so they don't know who it was"
Quiet reaching out she takes her paw and nods" yea that well will have to do.
Finn sighs and snuggles into the comforing warmth of kitties
Noir gives out a slight sigh and moves closer to Finn
Finn scratches behind noirs ear and nuzzles him a little to thank him for his gentle comfort
Quiet smiles " well don't you worry hun you just rest and get better.
Noir mews softly, still feeling a little uncomfort being unable to speak
Finn nods and wipes at her eyes. she trembles a little and nods more emphatic. "I'll be ok. A little payback... nothing to whine about, right?"
Quiet nods" well lets take our time though"
Finn nods "Well, I'm not.. I'm gonna rest a while."
Quiet giggles shaking her head" well yea that is an order you will rest up
Finn gives a weak chuckle and nods "Is everyone else ok?" blushes with shame "I'm sorry.. i didn't even think.."
Quiet patting her paw" yes hun everyone else is fine"
Finn relaxes, relieved
Quiet shakes her head " what a good kitty worried about your family
Noir purrs to Finn nodding
Finn responds with a purr and a nuzzle then she rests silent.
