Their leader's words did nothing to shame Pretty Boy and Grendel, they just winked at eachother and grinned.<br/>"Ah, you know how it is boss", Grendel said with mirth in his voice. "She's a dirty little slut, this one. One glance at me and Boy and it was like the Niagara falls between her legs. I don't even think she's wearing any panties!"<br/>Grendel gave Gina a lecherous smile and totally missed the way his boss' eyes darkened. Pretty Boy noticed the signs though and quickly but discreetly moved away from Grendel. With Steiner up front driving and It being It, there were now only two possible targets for the Hound's wrath, and he much preferred if Grendel would take the brunt of it.<br/>"Grendel," their boss said with a voice that could turn the blood in your veins to ice, "switch with Steiner. You are driving."<br/>Grendel looked around with a stupid expression on his face, it was almost comical.<br/>"But boss," he protested, "I was having fun with the skirt. Why can't..."<br/>Hound's head snapped around so fast that it made Gina jump. She took some comfort in the fact that she hadn't been the only one. The expression on Hound's face seemed to promise a messy, violent death to any who had dared displeas him. His eyes burned with fires fueled by an all consuming rage and his fangs were bared as he hissed a sharp warning that didn't quite seem to be solely directed at Grendel.<br/>"Up front. Now." To her surprise he hadn't even raised his voice, he had spoken with an amount of self restraint she hadn't thought him capable of at this moment, but she had never seen Grendel move faster. It would be hard not to feel a bit of schadenfreude, but Gina couldn't exactly blame him. She had never seen the predator dwelling in all of them so close to the surface, and she had after all seen the Hound in a pretty bad way before.<br/>"You smell nice," she suddenly heard in her right ear. Somehow Steiner had slid up right next to her, quiet as a shadow. Now he was leering at Gina from behind that archaic gasmask of his. But as weird as he seemed she didn't find him as threatening as the others. She even thought of him as quite harmless. Eccentric, sure, but harmless. If this was a dangerous assumption to make or not only time could tell.<br/>"Boss wants me to teach you a thing or two about proper protocol. Boss hopes I can help you survive the night."<br/>Even though his face was hidden from her she somehow knew he never took his eyes of her, not even for a second. He probably didn't even blink.<br/>"Act the way you have with Boyo and Grendel and you'll quickly find yourself bleeding out on the floor, and that would make me so sad. I'm quite fond of the Prince's new carpet..."
