((Sorry, happened to miss the post of Mad giving Karogen the heads-up.))<br/><br/>Karogen looked down, considering everything.  He had quite obviously pissed the old man off by comparing humans to furs.  Karogen was pretty sure the old man knew he was right though- the hearts of humans and furs sharred the same darkness, and the same light.  But now that he had met Alhanda face to face, he knew she was the darkness.  He tried to see true reason behind her cruelty.  He tried to even give her excuses in his mind.  But when it came down to it, she was truly cold-hearted.  He had finally realized no amount of calm persuasion would convince her to allow equality.<br/><br/>But that person who had come in and whispered about a breakout... was that real, or something his subconcious mind had played out from mere hopes?<br/><br/>"Hey.  If I get out of here, you're coming too, right?"  He asked the man.  "Or do you want to stay in -her- dungeon your entire life?"<br/><br/>-----------------------------------------------<br/><br/>Kitten was the first to notice the humans see them.  Ideas raced through his head, and he gritted his teeth.  He looked down to see Sherra kneeling down towards Feldana... they would be helpless targets like that... wait...<br/>"Be prepared to run!" He whispered harshly towards Sherra and Feldana.  He then looked up towards the gaurds in the open window, grinning quite arrogantly.  "Hey, lookit we got here!  This pretty lil cat here looks like she could be some fun, if ya know what I mean.   She's pretty beat up.  You guys wanna come down an' have a go at her?"  Without looking at her, he whispered to Sherra again.  "If they fall for it and come down, we're gonna kill them quietly... if not... I'm gonna draw thier fire.  You take Feldana and get out of here!"<br/><br/>"Kitten!!"  Sherra looked him in the eyes.<br/><br/>"Mistress Sherra.  Your family has treated mine well, for generations up to this day. We never recieved unfair treatment.  I would be an honor to die protecting you."<br/><br/>Sherra grimaced, and nodded.  "Feldana.  No matter what, keep your eyes closed."<br/><br/>-------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>"I wasn't worried if they'd be frightened," Jenten said.  "I just think it'd be funny to see thier faces."<br/><br/>Emiko frowned, thinking to herself.  She had earlier told the First Sergeant about Jenten and Marice, about why each of them joined.  But she knew the First Sergeant had probably been more interested in her.  Thing is... she didn't know why she had joined.  Probably something to do with not wanting to be outdone by Jenten- even though it was apparent emiko was leading the three, it HAD been Jenten's idea...  She shook her head and sighed.  "Er... never been to this neighborhood before.  Is that the park there, in the distance?"  She pointed off in the direction of travel, looking up towards the First Sergeant.
