"Anyways..." Saradin said, still watching what could be considered food by SOME, just not him. "Aurah, as strange as it seems to ask, does the two of us really change anything?" They had wanted to find out if they felt anything for each other, but he had a feeling that neither of them really knew what that meant. "For the most part, will we be carrying on as before or are we going to try to wring the romance out of every day?" It was a funny thought honestly, and he laughed heartwarmingly as he said it.

Cymarron's alarms when off again in his head..and he set Ecara down lightly, put things away calmly, and then just seemed to vanish in a blur of golden fur. He was begining to get really upset with this village. But as Eclipse said, he was more careful this time, hiding in shadows and instead of tearing off the door, he simply slammed it open, and stepped in with eyes glowing in fury.
"How many times will Cymarron have to warn this village about touching Merre in ways she does not wish to be touched."
He flexed his claws, and watched the male that had Nailah by the back of the neck, snorting lightly and baring his fangs.

Opening her eyes which she had briefly closed her turned her head slightly to look at Saradin. " Well...we'll just be closer than we were before, more personable with each other, not to mention those 'don't touch' barriers of friendship are gone....stop making me analyze it...." A smile and a laugh to match his own. Leaning over, she demonstrated the no more barriers policy, kissing him gently. "Let the romance come as it may."
Ecara stood there for a moment, watched Cymarron leave then looked to her mother for attention. Watching her kiss Saradin Phoenix...made her think. She opened her mouth to question, but didn't know what to ask and merely let one hand grab at her ear as frustration grabbed her.

Niah tried to push him away. She wasnt' ready for this yet. She tried to pull back and felt fear rise up in her when his hand tightened.
Jeremiah was not really upset that she wasn't willing. He had never cared in the past. Adn it made it so much more fun when the woman was feisty. He had a feeling Merre would be.
Niah frantically tried to get out of his hold. She wished the bar had people in it. They could help her. But it was empty as was to be expected. She closed her eyes and reached down for her knife.
Jeremiah grabbed her arms and viciously shoved her into the wall. He pulled back after trapping her arms at her side and snarled "I said I wasn't done. You really need to learn obedience." He went to smack her and then whipped his head around. His eyes widened at the sight of the furious...thing in the doorway. "Who the hell are you?!"
Niah wondered what had stopped him and opened her eyes to see. "Cymarron!" she cried out gratefully.
Jeremiah's eyes narrowed at the beast. He drew his sword and let Merre go. "You wish to claim the girl as your own?"

"I can certainly accomadate that." His arm went around her and Saradin not the only one to be kissed then. "Its better that way," a sideways glance to Ecara and another laugh. "Youre a mother anyways, and I dont think your poor daughter can take much more confusion." Making sure to straigten up his position on the couch, arm still around Aurahkah, he focused on Ecara. "Have something you want to ask? Its okay, dont worry."

"Cymarron already claimed her as under his protection. if a claiom of mate is what you are asking, then as far you you filthy, dirty little humans are concerned, she might as well be."
The sword didn't even bother him.
"And your metal fang isn't going to save you. We'll feast on your flesh, suck the tiniest bones free of marrow, and use your skin and bones as furniture and eating untensils."
He took steps forward, tossing tables aside as if they were nothing, venom dripping lightly from his fangs.
"So Human, you wish to challenge a true Hunter? then come and try. we were bred to kill..and you are just Prey to us."

Jeremiah raised an eyebrow at the word mate. "Filthy, disgusting, humans? Did you forget cat that she herself is a human?" He raised his sword and shoved Merre back into the wall. "Dont' move." Then he moved slowly watching his opponent. "Shall we fight for the right to claim her? That sounds like fun." He swiftly moved forward aiming his blade at the creatures massive chest. He was not going to lose this fight. Merre was his.
Dobbs cursed savagely from his place above as he saw the tigerman storm into the inn. He saw his son draw his blade and cursed. Sometimes he was such an idiot. The measely blade was not going to deter him. He sighed and picked up his gun. It was time to see if all kitty's had nine lives.

Aura laughed slightly, switching her attention to a confused little Ecara. That dictionary reading wasn't helping the child now. This was concept of the word love, not its definition. Interesting situation really. And she wondered how Ecara was processing it. The girl had seen Aura show basically the same affection to her father.
Ecara still stood there, now her little boot toeing the floor. "Ecara..." She really didn't know how to explain what she wanted to ask. Mommy showed the same actions towards daddy. That was the way mommy and daddy were. But now...she was acting the same way toward Saradin Phoenix. "Um...Ecara...does not understand..." More frustration showing easily through as she tugged on her ear all the more. "What is Saradin Phoenix?"

Cymarron growled as the man came forward, and grabbed the blade, not even wincing as it bit into his palm and snapped the blade in half..before grabbing him by the neck with his other hand...and casually throwing him into the wall..and flinging a table right after his body.
"Foolish. you place far too much value in those stupid metal weapons. We will make you sing for us. your screams will be sweet music."
He laughed. not a friendly, normal laugh...but the laugh of a predator that loved the kill...and he stalked forward, snarling.
"Will you be like the others? will you beg for your life?"

"What am I? An old friend, but we just dont know if we want to be more than friends or not. I really hope your mommy likes me as much as I like her. Dont worry about your daddy, she still loves him just like always, and they both love you." Navigating the question as best he could for now, he turned the pressure entirely away from himself as he looked to the woman he held. "But I dont really know Ecara, maybe we should ask your mommy what I am." All eyes were on Aurahkah for the final decision.

Oh joy, spotlight on her. She looked between the pair for a moment then to Saradin and smiled. Funny, it didn't take her long to make up her mind or choose her words. This not thinking too hard business was grand. Eyes still on Saradin. "Saradin Phoenix, will always be mommy's friend...but she'd rather have him closer than that. As close as people can possibly get, more than just physically speaking." A smile at Saradin, then her look shifted to Ecara. "Do you understand that? That I love Eclipse...and Saradin too?"
A moment spent in thought. "So...mommy loves daddy, and he still loves her. But she loves Saradin Phoenix as well...just different." She paused. Well heck, she wanted in on this too. "Can Ecara love Saradin Phoenix too? Like mommy loves daddy?"

Jeremiah stared at Cymarron as he easily snapped the steel blade. Then he felt himself lifted off the ground and slammed against the wall, much the same as he had done to countless females. He saw the table coming at him and rolled quickly. The table smacked the wall just missing his head and pinning his leg to the wall. "Dammit." he cursed when he tried to move away from the enraged tigerman.
Dobbs hurried downstairs with the gun in his hand. He aimed it at the tiger's back and said "Go to hell ye filthy creature!" Then he pulled the trigger.
Niah screamed out a warning but it seemed it was too late. The bullet went tearing through the air at Cymarron and grazed his shoulder. Niah acted without thinking. She withdrew her knife and ran towards Dobbs, her own fear mixing with Cymarron's rage and producing the mind of a killer.
Alicia snuck back inside just in time to see her father shoot the gun. She crept to the table where her knife had been thrown earlier. Now they would all pay. Everyoen who had made her unhappy. Seemed Kitty was back and causing problems. She slowly picked up the knife and waited.
Dobbs saw the girl out of the corner of his eye and quickly moved to avoid her blade. He grabbed her by the hair and pushed the gun to her head. "Touch him again and she dies!" Dobbs shouted out to Cymarron after cursing when he hadn't made a deadly hit.
Niah felt the cold steel against her temple and fear filled her. She still had te knife in hand but she was afraid to use it. Who was faster? Cymarron or a bullet? It seemed pretty obvious who would win. The bullet had the advantage. One move and her eternal life would grow extremely short.

"I dont see why not Ecara. Youre a special girl, and I'd love to have your affection too. I just hope your daddy doesnt mind much. After all, he wants more of you than he can get, and that means he'll have to share some of your love." It was a permanent look of happiness when talking to Ecara, like this was what he had always wanted. His family, whether extended or abstract, was still his family. Now maybe he could become a bigger part of it.

She smiled, gave a rock on her heels then giggled, exposing her small fangs. Then settling herself firmly on her feet she walked promptly up to Saradin and latched to his leg, hugging him, giving a nuzzle to his knee. "Ecara does not think daddy will mind. He loves Saradin Phoenix to, he told Ecara so."
Aura watched him, simply smiling. Isn't this what she wanted? What had brought about truth in a false relationship before? Yes...that's all she wanted, for whoever she wanted, to want them as well. It could of been the fever, but she doubted that the warm feeling she had was being caused by it. "He's good with sharing..."

He howled in pain and rage when the bullet grazed him..and turned his attention to Dobbs. and the gun.
"You hurt her, or you kill her. and there is nothing that will save you, your family, your town, your distant relatives, and your soul from me. Nothing in this life or the next will stop me from Hunting you, and subjecting you to torments you can only imagine."
His eyes began to lose the cat like pupil, and his was very obviously growing in size. what was once nearly seven feet, was now nearly nine. he took a step and the boards under his feet cracked and splintered. the Beast almost had complete control, only the need to protect Nailah keeping even the barest intelligence of Cymarron intact. the energy of the spirits flowed about him, wraith-like serpents flying aroudn his form.
