At the end of the bar

[Selena Kyle]

::Still in the clutches of the powerful Cizerack. Selena continued to plea and beg for her life::

<font size=5>Someone...P-L-E-A-S-E...HELP ME!!!!!</font>

::Selena could not stop the tears for they were tears of terror. She truly did not want to be killed and for that matter slaughtered by the Cizerack::

I will not stop....you brute!

What's the difference!! Tear out my vocal chords now or later! The outcome is the same for me...DEATH BY YOUR HANDS!!!

YOU....YOU UNHAND ME NOW!!!

::Again the tears continued to fall down her face::

What have I ever done to you? Huh? Tell me.. WHAT?!!

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

After a few more minutes of running, Cirrsseeto finally reached the clearing. He tossed Selena to the ground, her body landing on a soft, mossy hillside. Strattling her body and pinning her down with his weight, the Cizerack continued to pant, catching his breath as he looked around for anybody following him. With one heavy hand, he pinned Selena down by her right shoulder, as she repeated her question again...

"What have I ever done to you?"

Cirrsseeto frowned slightly, as he continued to catch his breath. He had no excuse to give her, no angry barrage to silence her with. He turned to look down at her with somewhat-sad, ice-blue eyes.

Nothjing, Ssselena. jYou have done nothjing to me at all. jYou werrre sssjimpljy jin the wrrrong place at the wrrrong tjime.

This didn't help Cirrsseeto's pangs of regret for what he was about to do.

jI am sssorrrjy, Ssselena Kjyle...

The Cizerack's claws extended, and he held Selena snugly, gripping her shoulders. With his free hand, he reached up, pushing back her blonde hair, as he pulled back her head gently, to expose her neck.

[Sage Hazzard]

The Force flowed through Sage's muscles. He sped past Vader. He kept a steady pace as he came up to the large black cat. The feline was better adept at tracking felines such as himself, even if there was differances.

"We're coming Selena!! If you harm one hair on her head Cizerack, you are going to be punished for your crimes in a court of law! Will your Mistress take kindly to her consort being contained for his lifetime?!"

[Selena Kyle]

::Leaning back on the ground, Selena's body quivered. She was very frighten and did not know what to do::

::Both sadness and fear fell upon her face::

I am sorry too. I just don't understand why you must kill me? I have always treated you with kindness. I treated you like any other patron in the bar and that was always in a courteously manner.

I don't understand Cirr. You may seem like this big brute of a feline..but deep down in your soul, you seem like a kind soul. Why would you want to kill me? Do I deserve to die at your hands?

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirrsseeto's emotions were at conflict. He did not want to do this...but he had to. It was the only way. He continued to ease her head back, exposing her neck, perfect to bite down on, and clamp her life off.

Goodbjye...Ssselena.

Cirrsseeto opened his mouth wide, flashing his canines as he leaned down to sink his teeth into her flesh. On the way down, he stopped...looking into her eyes. The hesitation...it...

...very slowly, Cirrsseeto backed away, rising up from Selena. He retracted his claws from her injured shoulder, and helped the Hyuu-mann to her feet. He stared at her with sad blue eyes.

jI am sssorrrjy, Ssselena. Go...now.

Cirrsseeto looked at her, wanting her to flee from him, before he had a chance to let his hunger change his mind.

[Selena Kyle]

::A sigh of relief came over Selena::

::Yet she didn't run away from him, like a frighten rabbit. Selena looked on at Cirr. For some strange reason her fear became now pity for the gentle giant::

I thank you Cirr. I knew you could not do this. You are too sweet and gentle, behind that harsh exterior.

::Cautiously Selena placed her hand on Cirr's right hand. Definetly not what a person would do to a person that almost killed them. But Selena wanted to reassure Cirr in any way she could::

Please...Please lets just forget this whole thing. I would like you to comeback with me to the bar and grill. We can explain to the others that this was just a terrible mistake on your part.

What do you say?

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirrsseeto looked at Selena with large and confused eyes. She should be running in terror, like any Hyuu-mann would in their position. Yet, she didn't. She stayed...and she seemed to care about him.

O..o-okajy?

Cirrsseeto blinked. He was confused and upset.

[Iesis]

*the large black cat came crashing out of the brush into the clearing, not stopping her momentum, leaping without thought and landing solidly on the large feline's back, sinking long sharp teeth into the back of his neck*

*she snarled and growled, her claws were already imbedded into his thick hide, the poison inside them seeping into his blood stream*

*she clung to him like a parasite and would not let go*

[Lady Vader]

*LV came into the clearing shortly after Iesis, Sage just a little before her... when she reached the clearing, her eyes met a frenzy of cat fur... Iesis was clinging to what she thought her prey as the large Cizerack swatted at the creature clinging to his back*

*if it weren't for the situation at hand, she might have laughed... but the fact was, was that the large Cizerack could easily kill Iesis, and then LV would be forced to do so to the Cizerack*

*letting Sage take care of Selena, she approached the frenzy, bellowing at the panther*

IESIS!!! Remove yourself from him! NOW!!!

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirrsseeto's blue eyes widened in shock as the panther pounced on his back, its teeth biting at the back of his fleshy neck. Instinctively, Cirrsseeto reached for Selena as he was pulled backwards by the cat. Painfully, Cirrsseeto endured the mauling, eventually removing himself from the feline. The two grappled for a moment, until Cirrsseeto picked the panther up with both hands, throwing it with force at a tree. The cat smashed into a tree trunk, the blow knocking it unconcious. Weak, wounded, and poisoned, Cirrsseeto looked at Selena, made a step towards her with his hand out, and fell to the ground.

[Lady Vader]

*LV snarled, moving towards her fallen companion*

Damn it!

*she knelt beside the panther and examined it for any wounds... nothing serious... she half-closed her eyes, seraching for internal injuries... all she "saw" were a couple of bruised ribs, but luckily nothing broken... she opened her eyes again, and lightly stroked the large cat's head... it stirred slightly, it's yellow eyes fluttering open... slowly, it sat up, it's head held low, waiting for a rebuke from her mistress... LV sighed and spoke softly to the cat*

Think before you take action in the future. What is happening is not always as it seems.

*the panther whimpered softly and began grooming itself... LV left the cat there next to the tree and walked slowly to where the male Cizerack had collapsed... eyeing him, she saw the many places Iesis had scratched him... though the scratches weren't deep, they had been poisonous... what needed tending right now, though, was the deep wound at the back of his neck... she knelt next to him, placing a hand on the back of his neck, examining the wound with the Force*

[Sage Hazzard]

Sage knelt beside LV, examining the feline man.

"Tell me Lady Vader, what is your feline friend's poision consist of? Is it cureable through the Force? I may be of service. Healing happens to be one of my expertises. Is the poision consistant with basic venom or posionous liquid? or is there something I need to know?"

[Lady Vader]

*LV finished her examination, still keeping a hand on the feline's shoulder... she looked up at Sage, addressing him*

The Corellian panther has naturally poisonous claws, consisting of a non-fatal venom. It is merely meant to incapacitate it's prey so that it may wait at a safe distance while it's prey succumbs. Then the panther moves in for the final kill and feast.

*she looked back down at the Cizerack*

It won't kill him, but the longer it remains in his system, the more time it will have to paralize his vitals. In essence, if the poison is not removed or treated, the prey becomes completely paralized... permanently.

[Sage Hazzard]

Sage's face was overcome with concern.

"Then I suggest you help me. Selena, please, go get help."

Sage put his hands over the wound. He started a meditation so deep the voices around him became like whispers in the wind. A small light originated from his palms as the Force flowed through him. The procedure was difficult and may not work if done incorrectly. A bead of sweat ran from his brow down to his cheek as he continued the process.....

[Lady Vader]

*LV let Sage do his healing work as she remained kneeling there next to the Cizerack... she had some skills in healing, but it wasn't exactly her specialty... she let Sage do most of the work, as she gently stroked the aliens shoulder, soothing the pain*

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Slowly, Cirrsseeto opens his ice-blue eyes, moaning lowly in almost a low roar as he regains conciousness

[Lady Vader]

*LV heard the feline stir and moan softly... she looked at his face as his eyes slowly opened, looking quite groggy... she managed a smile, but said nothing so as to let him regian his wereabouts and strength*

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Slowly, the big Cizerack sat, up...his ears twitching slightly as he blinked a few times.

[Selena Kyle]

::A shocked Selena stood motionless by the chain of events at first. Suddenly she heard Sage's words. She quickly nodded to Sage::

Umm...Sure..Sage...I'll go right now!!!

::Before leaving, Selena turned around real quickly to look on at Cirr hoping he be alright::

::She called out real quickly as she started to run back to the bar::

Hang on Cirr. Sage will take care of you in the meantime. I'm getting help NOW!!

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirr turned to look at the running Selena, about to ask what she was doing. He was utterly confused at the show of compassion. He almost killed her, and she was trying to help him. Hyuu-manns were hard to understand.
