Feign is still a little confused at why Jaku was shooting at nothing and seems calm again...  "Err, never mind, vega...  I guess it's time for us to go back to the den."  He looks back over his shoulder at Vega...  "You'll like the den, and there's a few more tailmouths there for you to meet."<br/><br/>Without actually saying it, he mentally communicates to Jaku as he's sliding off, 'The message?  She already sent it?'  As he is thinking, he slides out of the building and in the direction of the den.<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>Delilah feels a little strange, willingly stepping into the mouth of a man-eating predator, but her hesitation dies down swiftly.  She's not sure about the tigress, but she's certain that the male isn't going to go back on his word.  Even as she starts to slide into his throat, she speaks  calmly.<br/><br/>"The project will probably send a surveillance drone out here soon, but it shouldn't take less than a few hours.  You've got to make sure at the very least that the communications building and generator are destroyed before then...  Don't bother blowing up the medical buildings,"  She thought about her words before getting up to her neck in the throat.  "Besides, it would be a big waste of the medical supplies if someone gets injured or sick later..."<br/><br/>---<br/><br/>As the light dies down, the naked body of the survivor lays face down and completely drained of energy.  For the first time, the large tattoo on his back is visible.  It's of a tree with the branches sagging down and the roots arching up so that they entwine across the middle of the image in an intricate Celtic knot.
