Kestrel seemed a bit jumpy as Viper patted her shoulder, but the athlete just gave a quick nod before turning away from the scene. She started walking to the diner to wash off her hands, still looking really shaken as she glanced back only to see what was to happen now. She felt like everything was moving so quickly, if she went into the diner she'd come back out and everything could be completely different! Still, the kolth entered, pushing the door open with her back so she wouldn't get blood on everything, and headed for the bathroom to wash off her hands.

With the approaching form of Viper, the Kolther by Moray's side felt all hope of getting away from here without some sort of unpleasant encounter vanish. His anxiety level seemed to rise as she talked to his tall friend and his Human pet. He was on edge, and unusually quiet as he witnessed the exchange.
'Autumn will turn out her arm, Viper will see the chip, and that'll be that...Nothing much worse could happen, could it? Besides, there were witnesses, Autumn was in here the entire time. There's no way She'll be blamed.' He thought to himself. Of course he supposed that would be the case as long as Autumn and Moray behaved themselves. He figured however, that they were both smart enough to 'tuck their tails' so to speak, and not give Viper much of a problem, or a reason, to keep them there longer then they needed to be. Squash swallowed nervously once more, but tried to change his body language at least to the point where he didn't look like a terrified mess.
It wasn't long before he caught sight of Kestrel, and the literal mess she was dealing with. He glanced at Moray, he really didn't want to leave his side, in case, for some reason, this turned ugly. He was good with words, maybe he could talk them out of any serious situation. But Moray was usually collected and Squash was sure he could handle himself, he'd dealt with Viper before and he must know how to stay on her good side...If that was even possible what with their massive gap in views and opinions.
"Moray I'll be right back...Kay?" He said softly to him, blinking up at him seriously. His way of expressing his concern and warning without actually saying anything. After giving him a little pat on the shoulder, he excused himself to go travel across the diner to the restroom where Kestrel had gone to clean up. He paused by the door and gave a soft knock with the back of his knuckles.
"Hey...Are you okay?" He wondered aloud in a rather concerned manner. The poor Kolth must be shaken. He didn't want to intrude, but if she was in need of any help, Squash was there to offer some.

The water was heard very clearly running from inside the restroom from the sink. Kestrel looked up at the knock and wiped her eyes briefly with the sleeve of her shirt.
"Y-yeah I'm okay..." She murmured in reply, still scrubbing her hands to clean off all of the blood. She felt like it was under her nails, imbedded even in the wrinckles on each of her joints. Though no matter how hard she scrubbed, Kestrel could still feel the warm liquid between her fingers.

((I'm really glad you guys dug the drawing haha. I felt like it added a little impact, and showed my appreciation for you guys at the same time. I had some spare time today so i did another one! I don't know that they can be regular, but I'll definitely try when the moment presents itself. To be honest I thought it was neat that we're a RPing art-community... so I thought I'd try to mirror that aspect a little XD))
What a familiar glow, albeit not quite as bright as usual. He had watched many of those little lights get implanted into the arms of humans, back when he was working with the capture teams. Moray internally calmed his nerves with an audible huff and steeled himself. That little chip spelled Hell for him the second Viper would care enough to look up and take notice of his presence. He needed hits wits about him.
Squash had watched the scene unfold as well, and seemed to try to be reassuring his friend that nothing could happen to Autumn, but Moray felt that Squash was trying harder to convince himself than anyone else. The big Kolther swallowed and nodded at his best friend, gripping Autumn all the tighter. As Moray became lost in his thoughts, the sharp voice of Viper brought him back to reality.
It was a jab, and a good one. A human involved in so violent a crime contradicted Moray’s efforts to speak on their behalves, and of course, proved Viper right. Yeah, terrible chance, he repeated her words in his head. She made a bee-line for the threesome; Moray watched her fiery gaze grow nearer till she was so close all he could smell was the smoke rising from her cigarette. His resolve became unshakeable; his demeanor overall became protective. Viper looked horribly pleased with herself. Autumn managed to gain a little wiggle-room as her master become increasingly poised, and popped her head out from around Moray’s side. She smiled impishly up at the bounty-hunter. Viper’s pleasure ran from her face, replaced with a scowl. Autumn looked like she was ready to say something, but then thought better of it, and generally just looked unsure.
Viper’s next words were targeted and cruel as she demanded to see Autumn’s chipped arm. “Don’t talk to her; talk to me,” Moray said coolly. That seemed to get the bounty-hunter’s attention. They stared at each other; steeping in silent challenge. It was Squash that snapped the tension, quietly telling his friend that he would be stepping away. Moray lowered his eyes for the moment and grunted a soft “mmhm”, stealing a glance to see what could have caught Squash’s attention in this very moment. The orange-guy was following after the Kolther-woman who had bravely stepped in on the dying (now dead) Koltherian’s behalf. He’s a really good guy and I don’t deserve him, Moray thought before turning his attention back to Viper. “Autumn,” he smirked, “show her you had nothing to do with this so we can get on with our lives.” He folded his arms and flattened his ears.
Autumn’s heart stirred, and she found herself grinning smugly, adoration for her owner’s current attitude shining in her eyes. You could almost feel the respect. She stretched her arm up and out, as close to Viper’s angry face as she could get. Then shot her a daring look and cocked an eyebrow. Moray’s jaw fell open. No glow. But no sign of removal either. The chip’s inactive? But when could that have happened? Autumn remained proud and oblivious with her arm out. He slowly shifted his gaze to meet Viper’s again, opening his mouth to explain himself.
Through Viper’s electronic notifier, a static-ridden voice sprang to life. “Something’s wrong with the aggression markers….indicators not functioning….no wireless signal….manual plug-in still functional….all red-tags to be secured in residences until an officer spoken with the owner or until further notice…” This explained Autumn’s malfunction, Moray thought as he strained to listen, but why was the found-chip still lit? |

On another note it'll probably take me a bit to respond, but hopefully I'll get one in during the week because I won't really be around this weekend)

Hngh, you all are the greatest <3 *hugs forever* And hope to hear from you soon Levi! ))
The big Kolth chewed on his lip as he waited outside for a moment. She sure sounded shaken to him, he didn't want to intrude, but maybe he could be of some assistance...
"Pardon..." He said apologetically as he pushed the door open and glanced around it at the stub-tailed Kolth. He blinked down at the blood on her hands that she was desperately trying to scrub off, and a look of deep sympathy spread over his face. She had been admirably brave to do what she had done. Granted Squash had been weary of going anywhere near Viper who had been near the now deceased Koltherian, but he still probably would have stayed safely inside, away from the blood and death.
"I...Here." Squash finally voiced as he walked across the restroom to her side at the sink, he grabbed some towels and applied a generous amount of soap to the middle of it, then folded it and rubbed the two sides around to spread the soap. After adding some warm water, he gave a friendly smile and offered to take her hand to clean it. Maybe his own hands would be steadier.

Kestrel looked up from her hand washing as he entered, eyeing him as he soaped up a towel and then offered to help her. She sighed and gave a bit of a small smile in thanks before sticking out a hand for him to help her clean off. She looked up at Squash as he rubbed her hand between the parts of the towel.
"Thanks..." She murmured quietly.

Everything happened so fast. Notice was just going to lunch with Daddy. She was looking up at Daddy chattering away about some made up story when a scream had gone out. Crowds suddenly gathered and shoved, somewhere Notice's little hand got wrenched out of her dad's and she was pulled into the crowd. When the commotion was still fresh her little voice couldn't be made out from all the other Kolthers. As a motorcycle and paramedics arrived, a bit of the crowd dispersed, but not enough to find Daddy. Her ears wilted against the sides of her human head as she picked up her tail, it had already been stepped on a couple times now, to avoid others stepping on it as she slowly wiggled her way through the crowds. "Daddy? Daddy? excuse me.... Daddy?" she called out, weaving threw the crowd. If she couldn't find Daddy best thing she could do was go to the authorities. There had to be one here right? They would watch her until Daddy found her.
The crowd was hard to maneuver though, in her human shape she barely reached the wait or less of adult human shaped Kolthers. She got increasingly upset as people didn't hear her, didn't move, and couldn't find the authorities. She was about to burst into tears when she finally reached the center. Sniffling, she looked around for any sign of authority. She saw a dark lady looking at a human's wrist as if checking something.... maybe she was? She didn't look very much like one, but she had to try. She carefully walked along the crowd line towards the dark lady, the human, and the blue-ish/black male. She stood a small distance away, as they looked busy, but the waiting was started to upset her. So she bucked up her courage and walked towards the group.
"Um... Excuse me? Are you a Police Officer? Or do you know where one is?"she asked, directing her question to the dark lady, quiet at first, but quickly speaking up so she knew she was heard. Her tail draped over one arm and her two hands tugging nervously at a section of her butt length red hair.
