Eagle glanced at Cat from time to time, when he noticed that she was asleep he smiled a bit "Heh...guess she was more tired than she Thought" he muttered to himself, and just kept on driving.
After a while though, the car stopped, and Eagle streched, it was early morning, and they were now in the rich part of town. He carefully snuck out of the car so that he didn't wake Cat up. He snuck off to do his business with the rich fatties.

Cat slept through the night, and was out like a light. Cat slept heavy through almost the entire time he was gone, though when she did wake out she looked around. She got curious and started to walk around town, exploring her new destination.

As cat let time pass and wandered around, more and more people showed up in the streets. She eventualy managed to find her way to the market. There were loads of people at trading stalls, or just using the market as a meeting place.
Thought not much later she entered the area. She was grabbed from behind, and the barrel of a gun was pressed against her head "Alright! You rich fucks caugh up some cash or this chickie gets a face full of lead, and that goes for the rest of you'z too!" Some thug yelled, though he wasn't alone, there were 5 others behind him, armed to the teeth. Now, normaly the empire city wouldn't give crap about anyone being hurt. But this was the rich and fancy district, the only place where NO ONE was supposed to be hurt...well, the people who werent holding a gun werent supposed to get hurt.

Cat stiffened. Her brain misfired for a minute there she stopped breathing. She had to think. There wasn't much to realize there. It was quite simple. Man, with gun, pressed to her temple, lots of people staring. People in this city didn't seem to like Catlian's much. She didn't think of herself as one but there were two evidant sets of ears and a tail that said other wise. Cats were the lower the lower class here, like some rich snobs would do anything if one of them had a gun to their heads. In short, she was screwed.

The people were staring, some actualy starting to gather money and jewelry. But only becouse the other five gunmen were pointing at them, not becouse of poor little Cat.
After the thugs had all the money they wanted, the guy holding cat Smiled "Good." He said. A click from the gun. It was being readied to fire, meaning Cat was dead meat soon. Then a pull on the trigger, and a gunshot rung out through the sky.
...
It wasn't Cat who fell, but the guy holding her went limp, and dropped dead. Then someone grabbed Cats hand, and started quickly pulling her away. Gunshots echoed, but they were growing distant. "How the hell did you get youreself mixed up in that?" A familiar voice asked, it was Eagle.

Cat's heart stopped when the hammer on the gun was pulled back. She wasn't fighting back? Why wasn't she moving? Was this really how she was going to die, standing there like a doped idiot waiting for a second rate street thug to shoot her for some cheap change? What a hellish way to die. The bang of the gun rang through the sky and thumbed inside her ears. She clenched here eyes shut, but was surprised when she was being pulled away instead of dead. "Mixed up?" She asked. "I just walked," She said.

"Ya were in a middle of that mascarade, so ya got mixed up in it" he said, then stopped, panting slightly "I think were a safe distance away" he said, then looked at Cat "Seriously, you've got a nack for trouble,"

"I could've handled myself," She said flatly crossing her arms. Her heart was beating faster then it had in a while, and her ears were flattened back, her tail even wrapped around her leg. "What the hell anyways? Why'd you even show up?" She asked.

Eagle just gave her a look "Sure...and thats why you were standing there frozen in place no?" He asked, then walked over to her, put his hands on her shoulders, leaned down and...
Put his head on her chest, well, rather his ear to where her heart was "Uh-huh...you were gonna handle youreself so well that you're heart is going twice its normal rate" he said, moving away from her. He then smiled. "Eh, I was just around, noticed the comotion" He said "And besides, it would be sad for this world to lose such a pretty face" He said, petting her head, quickly scratching behind her ear before he moved his hand away.

It was a good thing he moved his hand away because Cat snapped at it, fully intending to bite it hard. "Don't touch me," She said simply. Cat didn't exactly appreciate being touched, by anyone. She wasn't too happy with anyone showing her any type of friendly affection. A long history of whore houses and unfriendly company could do that to a person. "I could've handled myself," she assured.

Eagle just grinned at her "Sure sure" he said. Click. A clicking noise, then Eagle made a motion with his head for her to look down. Eagle was holding his gun, pointed right at her, holding it Casualy close to his hip

Cat stiffened, looking down at the gun. She then looked over at him. Her facial expression hadn't shifted but it was obvious she was freaking out, because her heart was jumping out of her chest. "Your little pranks are getting old," she said, trying to play it off as just joke.

"This aint a prank sweetheart" He said, then pulled the trigger. A bullet wizzing past her ear. Just a fraction of a milimiter away from grazing the skin. "We can ether do this the easy way, or the hard way" he said "The hard way being I impregnate ya with lead instead of the usual stuff"

She cringed, gun bangs, loud...She just glared at him. So far he hadn't done anything to give off that type of vibe, and she was totally forgetting that she could read minds, so instead of doing the smart thing and finding out if he was serious or not, she decided to just take the blind guess and call his bluff, so she could regret it later. "You're a bad actor," she said simply.

Eagle just smiled "Well of course I'm a bad actor, I'm not even trying" he said, he was smiling, his words really not matching his expresion "Now how about you go into that alley by yourself, or will I have to drag you by the tail?" he asked, he sounded as serious as ever, and the fact that the gun barrel was pointed directly at her stomach probably wasnt helping her not balieve him.
