After another moment or so, it sounded more like short sobbing coming from the back. "She threw 'em 'way, Doc," Nola said woozily, "Why'd she do that?"

"Has there been any progress here," Kilo asked the group.

To the back of the van, an arm stuck into the air and waved a finger. "Paw lit'l kit'ns," Nola sang slurrily, "they FOWND their mit'ns.... yay! An' they c'n have sum pie..." The arm went down again. "I like pie," she added in an equally slurred talking voice.
"Well, it's your choice. Some mice prefer it that way. I suppose the needle is a lot bigger relative to you than it is to other pets." Paul says, smiling slightly at Nola's drugged slurring. "But I'm just as comfortable doing it with you awake. So it's your call." The vet frowns as Nola sobs.
"Who threw what away, Nola?"

"Hey, guys. Nothing yet. Although I suppose we were lucky not to be trampled by reporters. Senka here saved the day." Flynn answers, slipping his paw into Nadia's and giving the vixen a quick lick on the jaw.
"Flukely, Charles and Tesla are about to start flying and Senka's given us some areas of the woods for them to search with their drones. We were just brainstorming where to go from here. Any news from your side of things?"

"Well, well. What are you doing playing truant?" queries the lady holding the net with the skunk dangling inside.

He is green broke.. Which basically means, he is ok with something or someone being on his back..
At least he is'n going to buck you off right away.

Oreo just hung in the net like a drowned rat, He was so tired... as he couldn't get a claw hold on any side of the pool to get out on his own..
Huh? No i'm playing being a skunk..
Oreo looks around at all the animal control and other officers now holding him captured in a net.

"Huh. Well, that's comforting... It'll be a learning experience for both of us, I guess... You ridden a horse before, Leslie?"

~~~~
"Fox? What fox? Anyway, it's school time for you. And don't go running off again or you'll be in trouble." the lady warns, carrying the skunk into a cage in the van.

~~~~
"Nah, not fruitless. We discovered that Piper isn't being held there and you found your item, whatever it was. So we're making progress!" Flynn encourages. "So... Where does everyone think we should go from here?"

~~~~
"Yeah, definitely human, and male too. No mistaking that funk." Buddy agrees. "We'll pass this around. Perhaps one of the other dogs will know it... So you're local then? Do you know any good hideouts around here anywhere?"

~~~~
"Ah. I'm sorry... I can't imagine what it would be like to lose a child..." The thought of losing Sandy horrifies Paul. "I'm sure your kittens are all living happily somewhere now though. Who knows? You might even meet one again some day. How about try to think happy thoughts like that and just try to stay still for me, okay?" the vet suggests, turning off onto the road leading to the clinic.

"So is there any other way I can help? Not really the type comfortable sitting on my paws." The mountain lion quipped. And this certainly seemed more exciting than the 'camping' her and Kandi were gonna do in the woods... Speaking of which... the feline looked around. Where did her owner hop off to again? Somewhere with that other guy...

Kilo mused, trying to shake off his despair. There was time for that later. He looked at the 'map' they were using. "A pity we don't know which direction they went in,"" he said serenely, before hearing Senka. "My dear Senka," he said, "when we find these people they'll be facing Rabbits and Mice for the main part. As Nadia will agree, the more muscle and fury we have on our side?" He sighed. "It raises our chances of success." Now he sniffed.

"Fink I rowed wun wunce on a merry-go-rownd," Leslie said, picking a bit of solid dessert from his teeth with a clawtip.

"Listen guys" Nadia said , gently pickling Kilo up and handed him over to Flynn "I've wasted too much time already. You guys stay here and help the cops as much as you can. I'm going to try to find these criminals my own way. If the cops say they've found Piper, go with them, if they mention any commotions or fight, then know that you've done all you can" she instructed, looking directly into Flynn's eyes "and stay here where it's safe", then she turned and walked away.

Kilo looked sadly to Nadia as she headed away. "It's not you, Flynn, believe me," he said after a moment, turning back to the map. "Now, how to figure out which way they went?"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nola hummed tunelessly as the car arrived at the surgery.
"How long until we get there, Phil?" Juniper asked. "I need to pee."

"Because a pet's been kidnapped, that's why. We're protecting all of you. Your owner will be worried about you since you've run off. We'll let her know you're safe." With that the officer shuts the door and climbs into the front of the van. Oreo will still be able to talk to them though as the cages are only separated from the front of the van by a sheet of wire-reinforced plexiglass with air holes drilled in so that officers can keep an eye on their charges.

~~~~
"Heh. I think it'll be a little bit different to a merry-go-round, right, Kandi?" Phil grins. "Say, I don't suppose you have some cows available you can teach us to ride too? That way I could finally say truthfully that 'this ain't my first rodeo!'"

~~~~
"Actually, Kilo, we do know in which direction they went thanks to Leslie and Chip. Chip saw the van and Leslie heard which way it went - out of town. Which... I suppose means we have a whole lot of ground to cover..." The rabbit pauses, pondering, before getting distracted by the vixen.
"Wait, Nadia! ... Be careful..." he says to her retreating back.
"Um... Okay... I just hope she doesn't do anything silly... Um... Okay... Senka. Since you know the area best, do you know of anywhere in that direction that might be worth checking out?"

~~~~
"We're here... Uh, sorry, I didn't catch your name before in all the chaos." No sooner has Paul pulled up at the clinic than the backup he's called in has begun pulling Nola and the other cat from the car and whisking them in. Sometimes having a good working relationship with nearby veterinary clinics can be very handy, Paul muses. He's been lucky enough with his own staff and a clinic in the next town to have a vet and a surgical nurse for each injured cat and a second nurse to watch vitals and act as gopher for both vets while they and the surgical nurses are scrubbed in. This leaves Paul free to do the paperwork and to tend to Juniper.

"Let's get you a toilet and then I can check you over and make sure you're okay." the vet tells the mouse. "It won't take me long to whip one up. You're not the first mouse I've treated."
Pulling on a fresh pair of gloves the vet passes his clipboard of notes to one of the nurses to be distributed to the other vets as needed and then picks up Juniper's container and heads into the clinic. He puts the mouse on the bench and then fetches a small medicine vial. He wraps some gauze over the lip of the vial to fashion a seat of sorts and then uses adhesive putty/poster putty to make it stable on the bench. Next he tears up some soft paper towel into small chunks and sits it on a second, upturned vial beside the makeshift toilet. Finally he reaches for the mouse and gently seats her on his creation.
"There you are. There's some toilet paper just to your left there. I'll turn my back and do some paperwork to give you some privacy. Let me know when you're done. I probably wouldn't try to get down from there yourself though. You're on the bench and you won't fall far but the vial you're sitting on is almost as tall as you." So saying, the vet turns to his paperwork, filling in spots that he hadn't had a chance to do before as well as adding information on microchips that one of the nurses has given him.

"I'm Juniper," Juniper said when asked her name. She felt the whirl of wind as things shifted and humans moved and the scent of cat - the strong scent of cat - dimmed to be replaced by a more general smell of many animals and disinfectant. She listened and waited as Paul...or was it Phil? Paul, she decided. It sounded nicer. As Paul made her a loo out of a vial. "Taking a D.A.N. check at the same time, Paul," she asked cheekily, remembering - almost - some of the science things Kilo had read out of papers as she did her business. "Done, sir," she finished as she finished.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Whoop," Nola slurred as her stretcher was pulled free. She flung an arm up, sending a lollipop stick flying. "Go, shoftly, on!" The arm fell back to her side.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kilo looked at the map. There seemed to be so many places out that way. It was needle in a hay st... He stopped thinking as he looked at one spot on the map and words he'd spoken earlier came back to him. "Tracks would take them all the way to the Rail yard," he said quietly.
"Plenty of places to hide there," Chip agreed.

"Clearly." drawls the poodle in the waiting area, obviously not impressed by the cat's apparent "drunkenness".

Nola is taken to a spare consulting room whilst the unconscious cat gets first crack at the x-ray machine. In the meantime, the new vet addresses Nola.
"Hi there, puss. My name's Jackie and I'm the vet who'll be looking after you today. What's your name? Are you in any pain at the moment?" she queries, hooking the cat to an IV line before scanning her scruff for a microchip.

~~~~
"Juniper. I thought it was a tree of some sort. That's a nice name." Paul smiles, turning back to the mouse and putting her back into her container.
"D.A... Oh, you mean DNA? Well, is there any need to? You wanna file a paternity suit or something?" he quips.
"I will do a quick dipstick test though, just to make sure your kidneys are working properly. Do you know if you've any problems other than your eyes I should know about?"

~~~~
"True, Kilo. But the road would take them straight to the next town or the city and we know they were travelling by van. And there's plenty of forests and farms between here and the city. Agh, we need more to go on! Say, Senka. You're less of a civilian than us. Think you could get any extra information from the cops for us? Or better yet, get us a copy of the ransom call?"

~~~~
"You're just tired because you've worn yourself out. And your owner already knows that you weren't where you're supposed to be because of the GPS chip on your collar. You'll be in less trouble if you go quietly back to school and stay there like you were meant to." the officer answers the skunk.

~~~~
"Hmm. Well I hear that riding pigs off cliffs is an achievement." Phil quips, referencing a popular video game. He passes Leslie a napkin so the kitten can wipe the drips of icecream from his chin and then pushes his empty coffee cup aside and orders lemonade for everyone.

Meanwhile..

The door to the office squeaks lightly as its opened, a neutral looking Leroy steps from behind it into the livingroom. He slowly walks to his chair and eases himself into it, a short easy sigh escapes him as he leans back and gets comfortable. Grabbing the remote from a sidetable, he flicks the TV on and starts switching channels.. Until he saw somewhere he recognized. It was that antiques store he saw a couple times, either driving or the odd walk he'd take.. The reporter was silently gesturing to said store with a grave look on her face, Leroy turned the volume on just enough for him to hear..

"..a large crowd has gathered around this little antique store in the quiet town of Richmond Acres today for the locally well known owners of the store, the Brookleys, have had a terrible ordeal happen to them last night. Piper, a beloved pet rabbit has been reportedly kidnapped from the property. Police are still on the scene and are having talks with-"

Leroy turned it off, getting back up from his seat and headed for his office. "Brookley, Brookley.." He murmured to himself, searching through papers strewn across his desk. He stops as he finds a ratty old notebook with 'Contacts' written on the front. He quickly flips through it and finds a number, 'Richard Brookley' scrawled next to it. "Alright! I hope he hasn't changed it.." He calls the number, surprisingly, it rings..

"Got it!" Jackie smiles, turning to a computer. "You seem stable enough for the moment so let's see who owns you, shall we? Oh, and do you have any medical conditions I should know of? Allergies, asthma, epilepsy, diabetes, pregnancy, anything like that?"

"All right. Well I'll check you over properly and make sure everything is good. You've never had problems with seizures or difficulty breathing or anything like that, have you?" the vet queries, dipping a cardboard strip into the "toilet" and recording the colours each pad affixed to the strip turn.
"This is a dipstick, by the way. I'm holding a clean one in front of you." he tells the mouse when he's done.
"Basically each of the pads on there have a chemical in them that changes colour according to the concentration of various chemicals in your, well, your pee. You've come out all healthy though which is good. Now, would you like the ascultation or palpation next? Basically, should I listen to your chest or feel you for lumps and bumps that shouldn't be there?"

"Oh. You didn't know. Oops. Well, it's not all pets, no. It depends what the owner wants to do. And it doesn't tell her what you're doing, only where you are." the officer explains to the skunk. "Now please calm down and don't go spraying in here."

"Huh? Well, not really. That was a Minecraft reference. Remind me to show you some time." Phil explains to Kandi.
"You still gaming or sporting at all? I remember you being pretty fearsome with a baseball bat when we were younger."

In the shop, Richard scrambles to answer the phone, picking it up as soon as the officer gives the signal that the tap is recording.
"I haven't got the money yet! I need more time! Please don't hurt Piper! I just want her back! I don't care about any- Oh... Leroy? Hi. Um, s-sorry, this really isn't a good time..."

"No t' mos'," Nola slurred. "'Ad one lotta kitt'ns." Again a choked sob sounded before she continued, hate seeming to give her some strength. "I 'adda go after SHE got rid've them, didn't I?" She coughed. "Didn' I," she repeated, quieter.

"Oh I'll go bumpy all the way, Paul," Juniper said after thanking him for litting her feel the stick. She'd run her paws over it, testing texture and shape, whilst it had been there.

Sat at the cafe, Leslies' ear twitched toward the shop as the phone rang. "Wunder who's caling the shop," he said innocently.

Leroy pinches the bridge of his nose, regretting just calling out the blue. "Yeah, I heard.. On the news, I remembered your name and found out your number from way back when. Look, I know this is out of the blue, but I moved into Richmond Acres a couple weeks back and, well, I want to help however I can.. So, what can I do to help?" He asked simply, being honest as possible. "..Also, I really am sorry for calling like this.. I'm guessing the police are listening?"

---

In the background, the office door creaked a little as Vera poked her head in. She stayed quiet, listening to the call.

"Uh... Yeah, they are... Um, yeah... Pi-" Richard pauses a moment to compose himself before continuing. "Leslie said he was staying with an Uncle Leroy and two rabbits. I didn't make the connection... Um... I could use a stiff drink and maybe a friend... You should stay home and protect your pets though." Richard answers, slumping back in his seat.

~~~~
In his hurry to get back Phil doesn't stop to question how Leslie knows that the phone is ringing. He just bolts, leaving his chair tilting dangerously and his wallet on the table.
Five minutes later he's back though.
"It wasn't the kidnappers. Just a friend of Grandad's. he sighs, sitting back down. "And the police still don't know anything..."

~~~~
"Ah... Well.. I can definitely understand you being upset..." Jackie sympathises uncertainly, not having kids of her own. She quietly puts the number on her computer screen into the phone.
"Hi. Is that Mr. Christopher? My name's Jackie and I'm a vet working with the Richmond Acres Veterinary Clinic. I have a cat here by the name of Nola and her microchip says you're the owner. Is that right?"

~~~~
"Bumpy it is." Paul grins, disposing of the dipstick and toilet and pulling on a fresh pair of gloves before picking up the mouse.
"So, I'm just going to run my hands over you and put some gentle pressure on you. Let me know if anything hurts. I'll move your arms, legs, head and tail a little too just to make sure everything moves properly. It'll stretch the joints a little but not by much. Again, let me know if anything hurts." the vet instructs before beginning his examination.
"Say, have you had any contact with humans before? It's just... For a wild animal you're remarkably docile. Er, no offence or anything..."

~~~~
"We haven't been spying on you. The collar sends an alert to your owner when you go somewhere outside of the area she's set and we get the alert too. That's it. Normally we wouldn't respond to it unless your owner asked us to but circumstances are a little different today. And as to why you should calm down, well, if you don't we'll have to tranquillise you for your and our safety." the officer replies matter-of-factly.

"Hello," said the voice at the other end of the line. It spoke without much hint of an accent but with a strength that spoke of the Atlantic somehow, "this is Thomas Christopher, y... Nola? You have Nola?" In the background a younger voice can be heard yelling in delight before the male voice returned. "Is...is she OK?"
---------------------------------
"Oh, I'm scared, Mr Paul," Juniper said, "but I trust Old Kilo and he said you were OK." She shrugged. "And, until I feel out the area, where's safe to run?"

"You know I'm not one to sit and do nothing, Richard. As for Leslie, he's a good, smart kitten. He was in need of help finding his mother, so I took him in until I can find her.. Anyway, I'll come over there, maybe with a good bottle of Gin, and we'll chat about the old days, Mm? That's if your present company is okay with that.." Leroy tilts his head back, lightly scratching his throat. "I know for a fact it's been awhile since I've gone out for - "

He stops as he notices a ear-tip at the edge of the door. "Hang on." He covers the phone with a hand, turning to the door. "Come in, Vera.." He says in an exasperated tone.

Vera slowly steps in, ears lowered. "Sorry Leroy, I overheard the TV.." She says lowly. "I would also like to help.."

Leroy thought for a moment, then turned back to the phone. "Alright, I'm also bringing Aaron and Vera along."

"Ah, Leroy, Aaron can't come. H-He's got a cold.. I-It's not bad, but I don't think it'd be a good idea for him to leave the house.." Vera cut in, her ears twitching. "I know it may not be safe for him to be alone, but I, u-um.. I very much want to come with you."

Leroy sighed. "Scratch that, Just me and Vera. And don't tell me no, we're coming. I'll see you in a bit."

After Richard's reply, he hung up. "Right, get your things then.. Oh, and check if all the windows are locked, just to be sure.."

Hmmm perhaps we should go home an wait it out there.. Then you could lay down for a while, and get some rest, instead of eating yourself up with fretting over what you can't control.

In the background a younger voice can be heard yelling in delight before the male voice returned. "Is...is she OK?"
"Yes and no. She's stable and not in much pain but she has been injured in a fight. It's mostly superficial but she does have a collapsed lung. We're waiting for the x-ray machine so we can make sure there's nothing more than that but at this stage we're pretty comfortable that that's the worst of it. I was wondering if you'd be willing to authorise treatment. Basically it'll involve stitching up the wounds and putting a drain into her chest to remove the air slowly so her lung can re-inflate naturally. We'll need to keep her in hospital for a few days to make sure she heals okay and that there's no infection. It's all quite safe and I'm confident she'll heal up fine. It's not cheap though, I'm sorry." Jackie explains the costs briefly and pauses to see what Thomas thinks before giving him the address and contact details of the clinic in case he wants to visit.
"If you want, you can talk to her, by the way. She's a little loopy from the painkillers we've given her but she's still quite coherent."

~~~~
Welsh Halfwit wrote:"Oh, I'm scared, Mr Paul," Juniper said, "but I trust Old Kilo and he said you were OK." She shrugged. "And, until I feel out the area, where's safe to run?"
"True enough." Paul agrees, carefully manipulating the mouse's head and neck before moving down to her body.
"Is there anything I can do to make you more comfortable or to help you be less afraid?" he queries, gently flipping the mouse to feel her back and tail.
"You know, if it helps I do have a scale model of this clinic that the architect made we were converting it from the farmhouse it used to be. It would be just your size." he grins, putting the mouse back on her back and running his gloved fingers down her arms and legs.

~~~~
Knowing that once Leroy's mind is made up nothing can stop him, Richard doesn't argue. Instead he makes sure his friend knows where the shop is and tells him to bring ID and to make sure Vera has her tags so the cops will let them in before ringing off. That done, he lets the cops know Leroy is coming and then slumps back into his chair.

"Yes, yes, yes," Mr Christopher said down the line, "we can pay. No trouble there so do what needs to be done. We'll be there in about twenty minutes. Can you tell her? II'll... I'll bring Sally with me." The voice is almost choking as it repeats the address to confirm it.
----------------------------------------------------------------
"Well you can - hee - keep tickling me, Paul," Juniper replied, giggling. She 'ouces' once, at a small cut she'd not noticed on her side but was happy to sit up. "I think I'd like that, Paul," she added. "Gives me 'the run of the place', eh?"

"Sure. Or, would you like to talk to her yourself?" Jackie queries, tucking the phone against her ear with her shoulder and shining a light into Nola's eyes.

~~~~
"Keep tickling you, huh? Like this?" Paul smiles, repeating the motion that had caused the mouse to giggle.
"I'll get you that model once I've finished my examination and I've given you a bath then." he says, placing the mouse back on the counter, giving her a reprieve from the tickling.
"So, I'll listen to your chest with my stethoscope and then I'll have a look in your eyes, ears and mouth and take your temperature and we'll go from there. Here, I'm holding the head of the stethescope in front of you. All I'm going to do is put it on your chest and then on your back and ask you to breathe deeply a few times. Sound good?"

Juniper giggled again as she was tickled before bringing her paws up to 'battle' the fingertips and she took a couple of breaths when reprieved. "Of... of course, Doctor,"
-------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'll she 'im when 'e gets yer," Nola slurred loudly. "Then might b'lieve 'e's real. Not like th' oth'r times..."

Once all the windows were checked, doors locked and Aaron was resting, Leroy and Vera got in the car and slowly exited the garage and stopped on the driveway. "Right, are you sure you have everything?" Leroy asked, clicking a button on the small remote which controled the garage door. "Yes, I have all I need. Are you sure Aaron will be fine on his own?" Vera queries, adjusting the pastel purple shawl around her shoulders. "Yes Vera, I'm sure. He's a smart one, he can look after himself." Once the garage door was fully closed, Leroy started off for the center of town..

---

..A few short minutes and they arrived, the news crews and police still sitting outside the shop. The two exit the vehicle and walk towards the shop, eyed by the news crews. The officer at the door stops them as they reach the shop. Leroy calmly shows his driver's licence in his wallet, Vera holds her spare tags up too. The officer checks the IDs and nods, opening the door.

Leroy led the two into the building, lightly waving as he saw Richard "Hey, we're here." He says in a mildly jovial manner. "I can't remember if you two met, but Vera, Richard. Richard, Vera."

Vera bows lightly with the introduction. "Hello, Richard. Leroy told me a little about you, from when you first met. I wish we could of met at a.. Better time. I've met Piper, a couple weeks back actually, and she only has been nice to me. I dearly wish for her to come back safely." She spoke calmly, an honest twinge of sympathy in her words. "As do we all, Vera. Anyway, may we sit?" Leroy added, changing the subject whilst rubbing the back the back of his head.

Leslie looked up as Leroy approached and blinked as the spoon fell off. "Excuse me," he said politely and ran towards the shop, only to be stopped before he could go in. "Oh, but..," he tried telling the K9 unit keeping him out. "Unkle Leroy," he called, "Vera!"

"Humans? What do you want humans for when you can have a handsome tod?" the fox queries, stepping in front of Nadia.
"But if you really want humans, I can tell ya where to find lots of humans! All you gotta do is give me that collar!" he grins.

~~~~
"All right." Paul smiles, holding the stethoscope against the mouse and the mouse against the stethoscope which is as wide as her torso.
"Well I can't count your heart rate but it sounds normal. Did you know normal mice hearts beat around six hundred times per minute? Your lungs sound clear too which is good." The vet pulls on a pair of medical magnifying glasses and picks up a Q-tip which he snips the end off leaving a small, narrow stick.
"Open up and say ah. Let's see those teeth and tonsils. Mmhmm. Good, good. Keep up that healthy level of gnawing." Switching out his Q-tip for an otoscope he checks the mouse's ears and then uses an ophthalmoscope to check her eyes.
"Well, you're blind all right. Those are some thick cataracts. I can't really do anything about that, sorry... Were you a dog or cat I could but your eyes are just too small to operate on." Paul puts away his instruments and pulls out an infra-red thermometer.
"You're lucky you're a mouse. I can get an accurate temperature reading from you by measuring the temperature of your ears and tail since you're so small. For most bigger creatures this is a lot more... Undignified." With a beep Paul has the readings he needs.
"Well, all good there too. So, shots and microchip if you want to be a pet. What do you think?"

~~~~
"All right. We shall see you shortly then." Jackie makes sure Mr. Christopher knows the way and then rings off before turning back to Nola.
"How are you holding up, Nola?" she queries, checking the cat's IV line and her vitals, rolling her carefully onto her side to check her temperature before putting her flat on her back again.

~~~~
"You and me both, Vera... Uh, yeah, please do sit..." Richard invites after shaking hands and paws.
"Um... D-Didn't you have another rabbit? A brown one?" he asks Leroy.

~~~~
"Hang on." another officer says to Leslie. "You're the kitten that was talking to my colleague earlier, aren't you? Do you have more information for us?"

"Don't worry on the blindness, Paul," Juniper said, a slight edge to her voice. "You can't really miss what you never had, after all." She felt she had to ask one question at the end. One that was intriguing her now he'd mention it. "I can do the pet thing, sure, but... who'd want a blind mouse?"
------------------------------
"I'm tickety-boo and a half," Nola said, putting her arm in the air before her temperature was taken. "Now only a quarter."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Leslie looked at the human policewoman with hope as the K9 kept blocking. That's... that's my human gone in," he said urgently, using both hands to point up the stairs, "Unkle Leroy and Vera. Vera!"

"Yeah, Aaron. He's a bit under the weather at the moment, so he's back at home.." Leroy states as he settles into a nearby chair. "Ahh.. Speaking of which, do you want my new adress? I know I have it written down on something.." He adds, patting at his pockets.

Leroy hadn't heard Leslie at all, but Vera heard him the second time. She turned to the sound with attentive ears, then left the upstairs to see him at the door. "L-Leslie? Wh-what are you doing here? Why aren't you at your friend's, erm, Oreo's house?" She asks confused. "Ah, S-sorry.. C-could you let him in, please?" She turns to the human officer. "He's okay, I-I'll look after him." She says, honesty in her eyes.

Without warnings, Nadia lunged forward and in a blink of an eye, already had her claws around the other fox's neck
"I don't have time for games" she grunted, staring into his eyes "there's a female rabbit living
with an old human in this town. Last night some humans took her, and I want that rabbit back. Now you know anything about that, or not?"

"Hey, just because you can't see doesn't mean you couldn't be a great companion." Paul observes. He did notice the edge in the mouse's voice but decides not to comment on it.
"You don't need eyes to hear or talk. I'm sure we could easily find you a family. I'm sure the Porters would take you - you could live with Kilo that way. Or, I know the Smiths often help us rehabilitate wildlife so they might take you. Or the Jaegermonds. They're fond of animals. Or I'm sure you could stay here. If worst comes to worst we could put you in Kandi's barn. I know she's more comfortable with mice than Sam is. So yeah. Loads of people would want you. So what do you think?"

"Sure, thanks... I can't promise to remember it at the moment though... Did you bring that drink? And what have you been doign with yourself since I last saw you? That must have been in London all those years ago, mustn't it?" The old man looks over at a photo of him, his late wife and Leroy in front of an old bus in the Jenkins History Museum.

"Hukk!" The fox's paws instinctively grab Nadia's wrists as he chokes. He stares at her for a moment, sweating, and then does the only thing he can which is to nod.
