Mandy Rubbed her soft coat gently before standing back up " Well c'mon! we need to get back."

Lilac followed, tail high. She had never had an owner who liked her before! She felt light, as if Hope had entered her body. A small light orange stripe developed on Lilac's tail, but she didn't notice, she was so happy to have an owner.

Zen and Mady entered the camp Lilac not far behind as they entered heads turned that their arrival and the tent fell silent for a moment " ZEN!!!!" a voice yelled from the far side of the tent " We are here and we have both sets of the plans!" he yelled back as payment of their late arrival. a young slender woman approached them " and..." she said looking over her glasses " And Mandy May have been see, but It's my fault I grabbed her too hard, we had to go a few government jocks were after us..." He sad quickly standing in front of Mandy The woman looked very displeased " As long as you have the plans it won't matter who saw her, because you are both now Disposable..." the Woman said coldly.....

Lilac walked up next to Mandy, tail flaring and eyes narrowed. She obviously didn't like that woman.

Zen Drew His sword and mandy's Bow was strung " I Say you are being foolish , maybe we need new leadership" Mandy Said aiming at the woman from behind Zen none of the others seemed to protest. " Well looks like you have been outvoted" Zen said with a small smirk " for all the stuff you put us through Killing you almost seems too merciful, and Im sure the government would love to have you" Mandy said softly so only her Zen, and the woman could hear " But she knows to much sweetheart, We can't let her go around talking about our true mission" Zen said in the same tone. " True.." Mandy said in agreement before letting her arrow find its mark. The woman Dropped to the floor and a couple of men came and removed her taking her body outside. Zen tuned to the others in the tent " Anyone else agree that anyone is just disposable?" his voice slightly angry " The crowd all shook their heads " Didn't think so.." he finished Walking with mandy to their section of the tent. where a large rug was seperated from the rest of the tent by a curtin

Lilac followed, tail down. Licking her paw, She shook her head as her nose twitched. There was something weird in the air. Probably blood.

mandy sat down on the rug " i don't ever want to do that again..." she said with a sigh Zen nodded in agreement

Lilac lay down, licking her paw. She still didn't notice the orange stripe on her tail. As Lilac yawned, her golden tooth shined in the back of her jaw.

Mandy Stroked Lilac Back " wow I guess even animals can gain their hope back" she said looking over the new orange stripe on her tail

Lilac purred, falling asleep.
