[i]Out of the corner of your eye you see movement. When you turn your head there's a 5'5" girl with black hair pulled back into a ponytail, wolf ears, and a long bushy tail wearing ragged clothing. She's stealing your gun/purse/bag/whatever. Upon being caught, her eyes go wide in shock as she trips backwards and falls on her back.[/i]
"Ah!"
[spoiler]Open![/spoiler]
English
-
[i]The wolf girl followed. She kept her eyes to the ground and her tail held up in her arms.[/i]
-
*They arrive at some sort of blue and black cycle, seemingly a motorcycle.* Kara gives her a helmet, before asking her, "You want anything to eat or drink before we go?"
-
[i]Artemis nods with excitement.[/i] "Food and drink!"
-
"Alright. Go look in the fridge; there's some sofa, water...I think we made chicken the other day...get some of those and snacks...and here." Kara orders, throwing a small little burlap sack her way. "Grab what you and your family need. Take anything else and I'll revoke that." *She leaves her to rummage the fridge, hearing a snoring Keira on the way there.*
-
[i]Artemis comes up to you with nothing, but the bag.[/i]
-
"What? Not hungry all of a sudden?" She asks, wondering why she didn't get any food, before pulling out a wrapper with a chocolate chip cookie inside it. "Here. A little something for yourself for now."
-
[i]Artemis shakes her head as she looks at the ground.[/i] "I don't deserve it." [i]She pulls out the rider gun. She had apparently stolen it back at some point.[/i] "I'm sorry."
-
"You know what?" She says giving back the gun. "If you want to sell something...then I'll give you something." *Kara slides a card into the driver.* [i][Attack Ride: Gambol Shroud!][/i] *She shoots the trigger at a nearby table, as a replica of Blake Belladonna's Gambol Shroud laid on the table, along with about a month's supply of food.* *The card returns to her, drained of its power.* "There, Artemis. Take those. That Gambol Shroud...consider it either as a better seller, or a weapon for you." Kara replies. "I'll wait."
-
[i]Artemis looked at all the stuff, but didn't make a move towards it. Her tail once again covered her face as she spoke with a soft voice.[/i] "B-But I stole from you."
-
"Trust me..." she says, whispering into Artemis's ear, "I used to do the same thing too." *She simply then laid on her motorcycle, waiting for the possible response.*
-
[i]Artemis just got on the motorcycle with tears in her eyes.[/i] "I don't deserve it."
-
*She simply gets off, and looks at her.* "Look...I understand why you steal. At one point or another, I had to do that just so that my sister and I could live a decent life. And I want your family to live a decent life. Look...take all this stuff that I'm giving you. You deserve it. Just trust me...you do." Kara explains, looking into Artemis's eyes with her own brown eyes. If she would've looked closely, it would've seen war, suffering, and some form of regret within those brown eyes.
-
[i]Artemis looks Kara in the eye. In Artemis' eye Kara can easily see a life of abuse and torment.[/i] "My family aren't the ones who need the food. I do."

Edited by A Stormy Dio: 11/9/2016 2:07:34 AM"I know that. That's why I'm giving you this cookie. To hold you over until you get there. Oh, and by the way, burlap sack is full of food for yourself." She replies, putting the cookie in Artemis's hand, as she went and put the Gambol Shround in one of Artemis's hands, and proceeds to get the rest of the food into the burlap sack.
-
[i]Artemis holds the cookie to her chest as she starts to cry.[/i] "P-Please! I don't deserve any of this! I stole from you! You should be hitting me, not helping!"
-
"But that would be morally wrong, wouldn't it? I'd prefer to help you, not hinder you. I mean, sure, I do get bored and wait for a fight in the Dojo...still dosen't mean that I'm willing to harm anyone like you. We both struggled...I struggled, you're struggling...we shouldn't have to suffer like that." She responds, proceeding to hug Artemis.
-
[i]Artemis seems shocked at first, but hugs back. Tears race down her face.[/i] "Th-Thank you."
-
"Only for a person like you." She responds , packing the rest of the stuff into her burlap sack. "Now...are you sure you don't want to crash here?" Kara asks.
-
[i]Artemis sighs.[/i] "I should get back to the den. I'm already really late and I don't want my punishment to get any worse."
-
"Fine, then." She says, getting on the motorcycle and beginning to ride it. As she did, she pulled up a wireless phone, and called her younger sister, Keira, and started to speak to her in Japanese. [i]"Keira, follow my tracker" Kara started with. "Um...why?" Keira replied. "I think we might have a case of child abuse going on here. Contact the Dojo's troops just in case." Kara replies.[/i]
-
[i]Artemis didn't understand a single word as she clung to Kara's back.[/i]
-
"So...where is this 'den'?" She asks, wondering where her home was.
-
"On the mountain side over there." [i]She points to a mountain in the distance.[/i]
-
*She drives up the mountaintop, eventually arriving at the den.* "Well...here you go." She says, getting off and unloading the burlap sack for her.
-
Edited by Cthulhu Agent: 11/9/2016 2:37:32 AM[i]The 'den' appears to just be a large 20 ft high cave entrance with a few bones of several large animals laying around. Artemis hops off the bike and picks up the bag.[/i] "Bye and thanks!"
