She looked confused. "What kni- Oh. That knife." She quickly sheathes it somewhere in her sleeve. "Uhm, what's the gun for?" [spoiler]btw, he's actually just at work. triple-double graveyard shift[/spoiler]
-
"If he's in trouble, I'll just shoot his way out, if not....I'll just convince whoever's making him work this long to give him a break.....Cassie needs the comfort"
-
She nods as her phone buzzes. She takes it out and looks at the screen. "Oh hey, look who's off work! And by 'look' i mean 'im going to tell you'. Nyxon just got off work for the rest of the week. Says his boss paid him extra extra to fill in for an injured co-worker."
-
"tell him to stop by here first, I still need to talk to him"
-
Her phone buzzes again. "He needs a ride. In other words ill just use a few teleport stones. Be back in like four seconds!" She disappears for exactly for seconds and reappears with a very, VERY tired looking Nyxon. "Back"
-
Alpha didn't care, and grabbed nyxon by the arm and led him into the sparrowhawk "Okay, bud, we need to talk. First off....you better love her, you better, because if you break her heart I'll rip yours out! Secondly, congratulations........I guess"
-
He blinks, then rubs his eyes. "uhm..." He seemed both confused and terrified at the same time.
-
Alpha wasn't kidding "I heard you two got engaged."
-
He shakes his head to wake himself up a bit. "Y-yeah. We did. Right." He still seemed out of it. 48 hours of pizza wears a guy down.
-
"Here....let's see......ah, here we are" Alpha checked his med kit, and gave you an injection, seemed to be a stimulant, waking you up "Now.......Nyxon......I need to tell you something about Cassie....she...she..well..." He sighed "She was attacked while you were gone, again"
-
He blinked, waking up and startled at the news. "What!? By who? When? How?!" He began getting worked up.
-
"Calm down, from what I can gather the -blam!-er died not too long ago...... And it was a few days ago...she was assaulted.....sexually, and she's still shaken up, hasn't left Ry's ship since." He said "I want you to go and be with her, she's been asking about you....she's worried that since then, you wouldn't think of her as highly"
-
He looked Alpha in the eyes. "Why would she think that? She means the world to me."
-
"She better." He said darkly "After you're done, I'm going to teach her how to defend herself"
-
He seemed a little offended that Alpha doubted his sincerity. "Ok... she's in Ry's ship, right?"
-
"She is" He said flatly "She hasn't left since"
-
He nods. "I should go then... You wanna come along?"
