After the truck was tipped, it seemed like everyone charged the man in the white jacket, including me.
I felt useless as I was(in Soricid form) but it seemed like the best way to search him. I clawed up his ugly-white jacket and searched the pockets. There were a few ugly-looking needles that I casually threw out of the pockets but no more weapons.
He kept thrashing while the others attacked him and knocked the gun away. I heard a shot and Kara's scream.
Sh*t!, i thought, That didn't sound good!
I scurried inside to his shirt pocket and threw out some more needles. I heard a new voice scream "YOU BASTARD!" and then paws collided with the human and myself. I was thrown around but managed to dig my claws into the human's shirt.
"WATCH IT!!!" I yelped as I was almost squashed.
Just then, the jacket was torn and I culd see the fight. I watched a panther tear the man's arm in half and then struggle against Ariel as she held him back. There was pain and anger in his eyes. Ahhhhhh...so he has a secret, I thought grimly.
The man screamed and stopped moving. I could tell that he was in shock but not dead.
I ran out into the open and went to see Kara as I changed back to a human. I couldn't tell what conditon EXACTLY she was in but it didn't look good. As the others surrounded Kara, I made my way to the newcomer, the panther. I studied him carefully and then approached him.
"I know what you are," I whispered in his ear.
Surprised, he turned around and glared at me.
I whipsered again, "Assassin....I won't tell them if you don't want me to though." and with that I walked away. I could feel his eyes following me.
