ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓The panther did whirl, jerking around to face him, where it instantly flattened back to prepare another lunge. It didn't know anything about him, and was completely unaware of why it was suddenly confined to such a small space. It didn't like it. Claws raked fresh holes in the floor's padding, dragging deeply across as it again lined itself up...
But as Lake spoke a name, it paused for a second, ears twitching. One perked a second, listening quietly. But the moment passed, and another low growl slipped from its bared teeth.
However, it's body straightened, standing fully and shifting from the launch position. Instead it stared, studying him, and gave another swipe of its claws in Lake's direction. Being a few feet away, the motion was harmless. As soon as the heavy paw dropped back against the floor, it pushed off hard and turned yet again. This time it didn't spring. It simply took off and bounded right through the open door, disappearing from sight with a last flick of its tail. ♥ ☓  ♥

.Lake. "Wh - HEY! Where are you going?!"
Lake extended his hand, letting it hover uselessly in the air for a few moments before it dropped to his side again. "Geez..." He rubbed the back of his head, gazing around the empty room. "Hn?"
A flash of silver caught his eye, and he knelt where he stood, picking up a small silver locket from the ground between his calloused fingers. "Oh-ho...what have we here...?"
He smirked a little, but the expression faded as he flipped it open, catching sight of a picture fitted to the inside of it.
"..."
His crimson eyes narrowed just slightly, hovering upon the photograph, and he remained silent for a few moments.
"...Damnit. And there I thought I had something to sell for cigarettes when I got outta here..."
Reluctantly, he pocketed the charm, and then hastily took off out the door after Kira, hollering down the hallways for her as he followed the sound of her retreating footsteps.
"Kitty? Kitty! Here, kitty! Uh...m...meow!"

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓Large paws padded silently against the floors as the panther strode down the hallway, head lowered and motions cautious. It didn't know where it was. None of this was familiar to it either, and that put the creature even more on edge than usual. But the claws had been retracted to allow for stealthier movements, while fangs remained in sight, protruding from its upper jaw. It's muzzle remained drawn back slightly, retaining the threatening, hostile exterior.
It would never have expected anyone to come near it. It's head lifted, at first with the find of an old but familiar scent. It hesitated, and then slowly began stepping in that direction, before sudden cries rang out, these closer than the scent's source. So, they took precedent over investigating the other.
Once more, the giant cat turned, lurching around and lowering its body, head down and back legs tensed and winding up like a spring ready to be release. It let out a low, threatening growl, daring the intruder to continue his approach, claws reappearing to try and dig into the new type of floor that it'd wandered on. ♥ ☓ ♥

In the corner of a room lay a massive lump of fur that responded to the name "Agro." He did not currently know where he was, as he was currently sleeping rather peacefully. It was so quiet that he was actually getting some of the best sleep for a long time. Every once in a while his ear would twitch, or it seemed liek he was having a dream about running and his legs would kick. one can only sleep for so long however, and he would soon awaken to his new surrounding. For now. There was tranquility. HE dreamed he was stretched out in front of a fireplace and it was snowing outside, also he had thumbs and a book.
God he missed thumbs.

.Lake. Lake skidded to a halt, gulping as Kira lumbered around to face him again, backing up a few steps and glancing back and forth to either side of the narrow hallway.
"Okay, maybe not your best idea," he muttered to himself, eyeing her cautiously. "Listen, kiddo. You've gotta help me out here. I don't want to be eaten, and trust me, you don't want to eat me. I haven't had a real shower in weeks, and I'm pretty much all bone." He bent his legs a little, ready to duck again if the panther decided to pounce. "So...at least give me a hint. How do we make you all hot again? Huh? Because...no offense, but I'm not into crossbreeding."

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓The panther acted more quickly this time, deciding that getting rid of this nuisance was a priority. The man made its host stir, threatening to start fighting back, and it enjoyed longer periods of control than five minutes. It also had yet to identify that scent...
The spring released, and once more the large feline shot forward, claws extended as it lurched forward for a second strike. Jaws parted, baring inch long fangs as its snarl echoed around the hallway. ♥ ☓ ♥

.Lake. Again, Lake tried to dodge, but in the long narrow hallway, he had less room to manuever, and with a head-spinning crack, he found himself knocked onto his back on the ground. Stars popped up in front of his eyes, and he groaned, lifting his hands to rest on top of the large black paws that had pinned his shoulders to the floor.
"Hate to say it, kiddo...but you've really put on weight..."
He squirmed a little. He could either remain trapped under her or hurt her in the process of breaking free.
"Can we just agree that you don't eat me today...? O-ow..."

Agro was stirred from his slumber by a sound he couldn't place. in a half awake stupor he stumbled lazily towards the door and pushed it open with his nose and was about to yell at whoever was making that racket. He was going to give them a piece of his holy crap it's a panther- " AHHHHHHHH" Agro screamed with the voice of a man, sufficiently surprised. Though he quickly collected himself, it looked like the thing had a guy pinned. He attempted to talk to it, for the most part, all animals could understand each other. He was hoping he'd get through. " Hey, let the kid go, he looks stringy anyway. Humans are no good for food most of the time, very upsetting for the stomach , you'll have the worst gas." Though to anyone human, it would sound like jsut general animal noises.

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓The panther seemed briefly pleased with itself, staring down at Lake as its weight pressed heavily into his form. But, it didn't last, and soon the task of ridding itself from this annoying shadow was resumed. It jaw parted widely, and completely ignoring him as he spoke, its head lowered, fangs baring dangerously closer. One of the paws lifted as well, then began to settle back to gain a better, and more painful, grip upon its prey.
Except, then something screamed.
The panther let out an awkward, startled yowl and leaped off and to the side, its eyes widening and flashing toward the new arrival; a wolf.
Instantly, it'd flattened back down, stance defensive as it bared fangs once more, and looked between the two as if not sure which to focus upon. Though, the wolf quickly stole back its attention, and it seemed to tense in surprise.
After a small hesitation, it straightened just a little, but every part of it remained tensed and ready to spring. "...what do you know, wolf?" a cautious reply reluctantly came, sounding like growls to Lake's ears, but the uneasy tone turned into a spitting hiss as it reached the last word. "Do not butt in where you're not wanted..." ♥ ☓ ♥

.Lake. "Aaaah...?!"
Great. Now there were two of them. And it sounded as though they were having some sort of...vicious snarling contest.
"Weeell, you two obviously have things to sort out, so...rrgh...I'll just be on my way..." Lake cringed slightly under the panther's hold, wishing that it would at least retract its claws.
They're probably fighting over who gets to eat me first...
"Come on, kid. I'd hate to scar you up from when you turn all beautiful again. Don't make me fight my way out of this, huh?" He gritted his teeth. "U-ugh..why do I always end up in pain around here-oof!"
He rubbed his chest, blinking as he found himself suddenly free of the 400lb furry weight.
What the hell's going on? Is she gonna eat the doggie first?
"...Nice doggie..."

" We're in the middle of a hallway, neither of us are usually wanted here. This is hardly the place for hunting." He would worry about where he was in a minute, first things first and all that. It seemed the panther was female. Which actually made things worse, girls were usually the hunters of most species of cats. HE 'd have to be careful to not try and piss her off, but he couldn't make it seem like he was weak or she'd pounce him. So he took a neutral stance and just sat a couple yards from her.
He felt compelled to tell the human kid that he was a wolf, not a dog. He'd get to that later, it was always fun to see the looks on peoples faces when they learn that he 'talks'. Though that all depended on the huntress here calming down.

ĸıɍą ☆ Ƥıēřċǝ_________________________☓☓☓The panther cast a feline's version of a glare toward Lake as he babbled in the background, and then refocused its attention upon the newest intruder. Why was this place so full of pests? It let out another growl, one of frustration this time, and lets its clawed absently rake across the solid floor, creating a sound similar to nails on a chalkboard.
"He keeps following me!" the panther snarled out, voice raising this time. It was a female's too, but older than Kira's by sound. It snorted, staring toward Lake, and then slowly raised fully from its crouched posture. It knew what he was saying, but was unwilling to comply. Besides, he didn't care about injuring this form... he was just worried about what he'd be left with after. Why would it care about that?
With another nasty look toward the both of them, the oversized panther turned to continue on its way, claws still out now, this time clacking against the floor as it walked. ♥ ☓ ♥

.Lake.   Lake sat dumbly on the floor, his head turning to follow Kira as she sauntered past him. He looked a little bewildered and confused, but was careful not to move too suddenly, lest he trigger another attack. Talking to the creature didn't seem to be helping anything, anyway...he knew he was being stupid. He KNEW better than to hang around with one person for too long, especially in this place. There was a danger of getting attached, and being cooped up with a group of the same people for a long period of time only made that more of a concern.
Well, except for people like the walking giant and Sparky the demon. Lake didn't really have to convince himself that he didn't want to hang around them.
Hot girls were a different story..
Hot girls who turned into man-eating panthers were yet another story entirely.
"Urgh..." he flopped onto his back again, limbs sprawled out on all sides, and rolled his head toward the wolf, wondering if it was going to try and attack him too.
This just isn't my day...
"...Nice doggie..."

" Wolf actually. We tend to resent being referee to as dogs though. Words to the wise." He said, plain as day, it tended ot be easier for him to just come out and say something when he had to speak. The process was a lot faster then having the human or whatever gradually come to the conclusion he was smarter than the average animal that way. Either way, the panther was gone and that knocked one problem off the lsit, it was tiem to move on to the next one. " You mind telling me whats going on here thumbs? I don't really remember walking into that room to take a nap." Thumbs was sort of a little joke between animals without that handy little fat finger.

.Lake. "Aaaah....."
Lake decided he had definitely just developed another stomach ulcer...to contribute to all the others he was sure to have gained from what was turning out to be a ridiculously stressful day.
He closed his eyes for a moment, rolling his head back so he was facing the ceiling, and was silent for a bit.
Then, slowly, he brought his thumb and forefinger up to the bridge of his nose, applying pressure in attempt to ward off an impending headache.
"...What?" he asked finally, his tone reluctant. Just to be sure he HAD just heard the doggie tell him off and interrogate him for answers.
...I'm stuck in the middle of some kind of giant mental institution with a hole through my chest, and I just asked a dog to repeat itself.
Gods, I need a beer.
