All of the anger and yelling and tension in the room made Fluffy want to run, trembling, anywhere else. This was where her owner was, however, and she wasn't going anywhere else. Xiven would protect her. Xiven would keep her safe. She'd come to rescue her Fluffy, after all. It didn't occur to the Ace that her owner might feel guilty for not having kept her away from this mess in the first place. She huddled next to her mistress, head to the ground and tucked in, not wanting to see or hear or have anything to do with all the anger. It terrified her far more than what had just happened.
Before Danny could even try to answer the young woman's questions, he felt as though his teeth were being pulled up by the roots, one by one in his mouth, and he screamed. He didn't know if it was a real ability or one that caused pain, but damn it felt real enough for him. He really couldn't take pain with any sort of grace.
The bat with the blade could be heard, but the man wasn't in plain sight and he couldn't move easily with Heilyn's boot slowly pressing his spine to the floor. He whimpered, writhed, and then coughed around the saliva that had pooled in his mouth at the sensation. "I didn't do nothin'," he gasped, believing it. So he'd bred the pretty thing, so what?! They would be lucky if it took and they got an attractive little Ace-child out of it.

"I WILL MAKE YOU SUFFER FOR HURTING FLUFFY!" Xiven screamed, her voice breaking. "She's more dear to me than a dirty bastard who just wants money! Fluffy never deserved to be put through that! She's innocent! She doesn't know what things like that mean and you--you--YOU SCARRED HER FOR LIFE!"
Xiven's breathing was heavy, and she was doing her hardest to keep herself in control. This man deserved every bit of pain he got. How dare he touch her! How dare he do that to her!
Without thinking she reached out and grabbed a set of his whiskers in her paw. Then she yanked them as hard as possible. "If I had my biped form I'd take your head off, but for now I think it's best to torture you. After all, you don't seem to like pain, do you?"
She looked to Seth and Heilyn. "If you want to give him something to remember you by, be my guest. I don't know if he's good enough for death."

"I think he is. Xiven, hold Fluffy. I don't want her to hurt herself," Heilyn growled. She waiting until the Ace was secure before shifting back into her Human form. The other Aces in the room could deal with it. She directed her anger toward Danny, but an aura was an aura. She knelt down, foot still on his back. She wanted to do so much more to him than physical pain. She wanted to destroy him completely. She glared him down and growled the word "Dust," to curse him. If he wanted to drink off his worries today, he would find it to be quite difficult. She then reached down to grab him by the scruff of the neck, pulling him up against the force of her boot and activated her heat ability.
What would be done about the Aces, though? They had no place to go... She pondered this as she kept the heat going, though the thoughts were distracted by her concentration.
"Go ahead, sweetie, unless I'm in your way."

"Give him something to remember us by... I have the perfect thing.[/b]" the man remarked with a small and wicked grin as he walked up to Danny, flexing slightly and moving the blade of the katar, gently sliding the metal against his neck, letting him feel the cool metal against his neck. "You hear that, Danny? I'm not really sure what these blades will do.. I've never gotten a chance to use them yet, but I was told by the man I bought them from that they should only be used on a real asshole.[/b]" He pulled the blade away from the Rat's throat, smiling at Heilyn.
Then, without warning and using the full weight of his body, he slammed the blade into the Rat's thigh, holding the metal in for a long time before pulling it out. It made a horrifying noise, and Seth was alarmed at first to see the blue liquid that seemed to be left behind.
And then he smiled.
"You're a sick fuck, Danny. In a way, I'd almost call you a rapist... And maybe one day I'll come finish the job.[/b]" he smirked slightly, turning to Xiven and Fluffy. "We need to get her to a doctor.[/b]"

Danny hissed in still more pain as she yanked on his whiskers, one of them coming out in her paw but the others just pulling at the skin of his lip and exposing sharp, somewhat yellowed teeth.
They were talking about killing them. He could hear them, through the rush of blood in his head that was the result of his adrenalin and fear and pain. She hadn't stopped with her ability, and it made him pant around the agonizing pain in his mouth. He made a choking noise as Heilyn pulled him up, the aura around her making him cringe back. He'd always just sort of 'ignored' the odd feeling he got from her, but this was nasty as hell. He didn't catch the word she growled and assumed it was another threat. He felt heat pouring from her hands as she held him up and thrashed, the pain getting to him. Pinned beneath her boot as he was, it didn't do much good but might unsettle her hold and stance.
He tried to slow his breathing down as shallow as possible, still gasping at the pain but not wanting to slit his own throat against the sharp blade being held to his throat. Then the man jabbed it into his thigh, and he screamed in pain, the sound going an octave higher when Seth finally ripped it out and took a good deal of leg-meat with it thanks to the barbs.
When the man taunted and left him, his scream choked itself off as saliva hit the back of his throat like a gag. They wouldn't notice it yet, but he was beginning to froth and it made him gasp for breath, writhing all the more in the effort to dislodge it and breathe.
Fluffy had never been as scare in her life as she was now. The agonized scream made her shake like a leaf and she held back the terrified sobs that rose in her throat, not wanting to be noticed. She didn't know what to do, what to think, or where to go. She stayed wherever Xiven put her, but when Danny got louder, she'd had enough and just passed out.

Xiven felt Fluffy go limp. Of course, she couldn't understand what was going on. The feline took a deep breath and bit her lip. Okay she needed to calm down and thing straight. Fluffy needed to go to a doctor right now, and they also had to take care of the Aces that were in this place. They were stolen... and Danny wasn't going to screw over anymore people.
"I need some help carrying Fluffy," Xiven said looking at Seth and Heilyn. "Also, someone needs to stay here and take care of these other Aces... Danny may be incapacitated for the moment but I don't want to leave him alone with them."
Xiven made a rather pained sound of worry. Oh god, what if Fluffy was....? It took all of Xiven's willpower not to burst into tears. Why would someone do this to her Fluffy? She didn't deserve this.

Heilyn stared, astonished at the effect the blades had on the Rat. Well, this kinda threw everything she had planned out the window... and it possibly wasted the curse she could only use once a month... but it was fascinating... And Seth... Suits, she loved him when he got that way. She felt a tingle fly spark through her body as she watched him. That man was so getting laid tonight.
"Seth, you go. I'll see to the Aces," she said, shifting down to her bipedal and removing herself from the vile mess that was just starting to become of the Rat. Out of the three of them, she knew she was the one who thought the highest of the Aces, "I'll stay and see to this. Maybe there's a paper trail... contacts and the like to return the wanted pets back home... I doubt it, but it's worth a try..." If any of them were unwanted, she could always find someone on the blackmarket willing to sell them as pets. She still didn't like it, but it was the best that could be done.
She left the man to drool and spaz on the floor and began searching the room. She wasn't expecting anything labeled "Illegal Ace Fur Trade Contacts" but just... something... anything...

That was certainly an interesting added effect. Danny had the privaledge of being the first person Seth had actually used his katars on, so he couldn't help but give a satisfied grin at the way he choked on his own saliva. He would have to keep in mind that they were a much more deadly weapon than he'd thought they'd be... They were well worth the money he'd spent on them, that much was sure. He'd be sure to send his thanks to the strange horse he'd gotten them from. The bat, fur still bristling, gave Heilyn a short nod and turned to Xiven, leaning down to be closer to eye level with the feline and her pet. " I'll carry her for you, if that's alright.[/b]" he offered, extending his arms to take the feline when Xiven finally passed her limp body to him. The Ace felt light in his arms, and he gently scratched behind her ear, hoping to soothe her even though she seemed to be fully unconscious. Honestly, the man felt nothing for the Ace... but she was kinda cute, when he really looked at her. Maybe he could see why someone would want a pet like this. He nodded to Xiven and started to climb the stairs, then glanced back at Heilyn. " Come back soon,[/b]" he said softly. He knew she'd have no trouble whatsoever with taking care of herself, but he'd still miss her while she was here with all of these... Things. " We'll get Fluffy checked in and I'll see what I can do about getting some housing found for the others. Try and see if you can get any information about who stole Fluffy, then I can get some revenge on the other end too.[/b]" his voice darkened with those words, and then he was outside, waiting for Xiven. ((I think we're coming to the end of this thread, yeah?  )) |

Within an hour and a half, Danny would be dead. There were no records to be found in the inn regarding either the legitimate or stolen Aces, so presumably such things were kept somewhere else or destroyed. There was no paper trail. Heilyn would find nothing but supplies to care for the Aces, some very nice alcohol stashed away, and a list of 'names' and species. The name of the ferret that had been in the cage with Fluffy was 'Mooky'.
Fluffy remained limp and unresponsive in Seth's arms, her shock and confusion and tired finally getting the best of her. Also, the food she'd been given while there had contained mild traces of sedatives, which only served to keep her out longer. She would wake again in two hours, mildly groggy, and stay as close to her owner as she possibly could. That was enough of an 'experience' to last her a lifetime and she wanted nothing more to do with any of it. All she wanted was to curl up next to Xiven and pretend nothing had happened, since that seemed to be what her owner wanted as well.
((I think... we can conclude it here?))
