Mr. R. grit his teeth, shot the gun at the glass ceiling, and disappeared into the crowd. Said glass ceiling broke into hundreds of tiny shrapnel that obeyed only the law of gravity.
Hae crouched down as close as he could to the ground, folding up his wings like Senai said he should if someone was hunting him. Something about 'reflective surface' that the boy's worried brain couldn't remember now.

Thomas growls angrily and breaks off to the side, dancing out of the way of the shards, some still managing to get him on his face, ears, and tail. He shook the shards off and took off after Mr. L, his face bleeding freely.
Mr. L. scowls and chases after his partner, firing at the redhead a few times, his shots grazing across the kids skin.
Thomas didn't notice, but he stopped and changes directions, going at a jog back to Hae. He slips the daggers away, wiping at the blood on his face. He didn't notice the trail of blood that was following him from the bullet wound in his back nor the pain from it.

Mr. R. smirked. Relax, he's trailing blood now. Probably going to check up on the little brat. Kill two metal bird freaks with one bullet.
Hae started to hear footsteps. As an automatic fear response, he stopped breathing, opened his mouth slightly, and breathed silently though his mouth.

Mr. L. stands in the shadows, watching the boy closely, 'Good. I guess I did hit him when I shot the first time.'
Thomas crouches down in front of Haes' hiding spot, his tail flicking, "It's okay Hae. It's just me." His voice sounded tired as he swayed slightly on his feet. Crouching down he smiles at the boy, holding his arms out so Hae could crawl out into his arms.

Hae looked up and crawled on his stomach towards Thomas, not using his wings for the sheer lack of room. The boy clutched Thomas's arm and started shaking slightly. When he spoke, his voice was faint and shaky. "Dey keew you; dey keel me. Y?"
Mr R. nodded. 'Let's start the hunt.' He looked down at the groundand started to follow the trail of blood.

Thomas carefully pulls the boy out all of the way, sighing softly, "I dunno, Hae. I really dunno." he stands up, wobbling slightly for a moment as he clutched to the smaller boy. He blinks a few times, his vision blurring. He scowls and rubs at his eyes with the back of a hand, smearing blood across his naturally pale skin. He turns around and starts heading out of the hallway, not looking at the ground.
Mr. L. smirks and follows after his partner, gun at the ready. The mall was just about empty minus them, the prey, and a few scattered people. The sirens were really close now.

One of the scattered people in the store was Senai, in the food court, who had placed a sound bubble around himself to enjoy his meal in peace 30 minutes ago.
Hae clung a bit before... "Yu bweed ou'in," he noticed, hearing the heartrate increase but pressure decrease. " 'Nai c'n ix yu. Go ta sea 'em."
Mr. R. heard the sirens. 'We can evade them if we get a blood sample from the floor. Track them, kill them unaware. They're both on alert now. Much harder to kill.'

Mr. L. nods, tucking the gun away and pulling out a plastic baggy. He scoops up some of the blood from a larger puddle, seals the baggie, then tucks it into his pocket. 'Come on, lets get out of here.'
Illium growls at the security guards that blocked his way, wings furled in anger. "My nephew is in there dammit!" Looks extremely pissed....something not good for the Beta Velociraptor. Sharp claws + immense speed and stealth + anger = Mass Mayhem and Maiming.
The Betas' mate stood nearby, calming his two upset toddlers, the kids brightly colored and very odd looking. But then again, the Phoenix and Raptor were an odd couple.
Thomas nods and heads over to the food court, his steps heavy as he spots a single guy sitting down enjoying his food. He was confused for a second, wondering how the guy didn't hear anything, when he noticed a slight bend in the air around him.

'Quickly'. Mr. R. then left the scene.
A wildish-looking woman with bright blue hair and green spots on her skin blinked at the odd couple at front, then shrugged. "Hey, you gonna stand there and yell or can I report my 12-month-old missing?" she asked calmly, as if asking where the bookstore was.
Hae looked in the same direction as Thomas. /That's Senai. He can help the open blood spots close./
Senai looked down at the wrappings of his meal. Keeping the sound bubble up, he walked over to the trash can and threw his stuff away.

Mr. L. followed after his partner.
Illium turns around to glare at the woman, one of his eyes twitching from holding back on stabbing the security guards.
Radun intervenes just as the raptor opens his mouth, "Go ahead, my mate is just upset he can't find our nephew." He smiles softly and pats the two heads down at his hips, the boys reduced to sniffling now.
Thomas stands a few meters away from Senai, swaying on the spot as he clung to Hae. He glances around, trying to find something to catch his attention while at the same time clinging to Hae.

Luckily for Thomas and Hae, when Senai turned around, he was surprised to see no people. Recognzing the tiny metal wings, he dropped the sound bubble and rushed over to them. "What happened?" he asked the child holding his son. After a second's pause, he included, "You're bleeding."
Kujaku raised an eyebrow. "Two missing person cases." She turned to the security guard, a hand reflexivly finding its way onto her hip. "Is that enough reasons to let us in?"
Hae turned around to face Senai and tried to pull Thomas closer. /He have open blood on back./

It was then in the care of an adult did Thomas start to lose his sanity. He started to shake, eyes welling up with unshed tears, "I dunno. Some freaks just started attacking your kid. I scared them off, but they got me good." He nods weakly, still clinging to Hae as if he were a lifeline. His ears droop low against his head and tail between his legs.
The security guards growl and move out of the way, letting the adults in.
Radun quickly stops Illium, "Lemme handle this. You watch the boys, okay?" he smiles and leans down, kissing the two little boys on the noses and handing their terrified hands over to daddies pants legs. He stands up and kisses his mate on the cheek, then smiles at Kujaku, "Ladies first." He holds the door open for her, purple hair falling in his face.

Kujaku gave a dry laugh. "You're probably more ladylike than me," she joked, stepping in first anyway. " The manager or head of security here? I want to report mssing persons..."
Senai nodded slowly. "Sound like you did good... Where did they get you?" He blinked as he heard sirens approching. "Alright, I'm going to heal your face, it has a few cuts on it." As he said this, he wiped his hands over the boy's face. They were really only minor wounds, but they had been bleeding.
Hae dozed off, still clinging to Thomas.

Radun chuckles and goes in after the female, blowing little kisses at his boys before the door shut, "True, having kids tends to do that too a lot of people."
"They got me on my face and back." He blinks, tears rolling down his face as his resolve crumbles bit by bit. He then started to feel the throbbing pain in his back, feeling the blood running down his skin and soaking into the clothes.

Kujaku gave a hollow laugh. "Make them more or less ladylike?" Not that she was ever ladylike to begiun with...
Senai nodded slowly and walked behind Thomas, easily spotting where the back-wound was. "Well, this could be slightly complicated... did they shoot you in the back?"
