Pepper was exploring the hallway. He was still getting use to the close confines and his speech was getting better the more he hung around Luthor. but he ...got too antsy staying in the small room, thus he often snuck out and tormented any technicians he could find.
Currently he was running as fast as he could down the hall...though running was one word for it. he ran much like a cat would. Though his body wasn't built for it he seemed quite capable. Though once he learned that standing would prove more useful he liked being low to the ground.
Plus he was paranoid with getting stuck under things again. So he avoided going under anything unless he was forced to. He had a torn piece of cloth in his mouth, the voices of angry technicians followed close behind him.

Mareike walked swiftly down the halls of the facility carrying a small domed plastic container with the cake she'd promised to Shar a while back. A wrath child she was aware most techs would avoid her at all costs unless she did something to annoy them Seeing as how she wanted to get down to where Shar was kept without altering that a*****e Vampy she needed to remain as unnoticeable to them as possible
Retracing the path she'd taken before the girl rounded a corner only to spot the weirdest looking kid to date scrambling down the hall like rabid wolves were chasing him, although he didn't really look afraid. She raised an eyebrow curious as to who the heck this was and what they'd done.

Claws scrabbling tile certainly was not his best friend. As the girl appeared out of no where in front of him he was trying very hard to stop his progression but only managed to collide into her legs. At least he had managed to slow his progression somewhat. Otherwise he may of wiped her out.
As he lay on the floor he shook his head as if trying to clear the stars out of his eyes. Once he able to see again he growled and immediately as back on his feet(?) again. Backing up a couple of steps he spat the piece of cloth out of his mouth. He wasn't wearing...anything. Nakid. Stark bloody nakid. Though shreds of cloths appeared around the bone on his shoulders indicating he had been wearing something at some point.

Mareike answered the boy with a growl of her own " Who the heck are you and what's wrong with you?." The urge to kick him a way died down when she realized he wasn't much older than Taylor and it looked like someone or something had got at him and stripped the poor kid naked. Guard guidelines ringing in the back of her mind the maroon skinned girl put her plans to get Shar his promised cake on hold and help the boy first since he clearly needed it.

Opening his mouth in a snarl Pepper backed up a couple of steps. She was bit...like the others...though she had a similar skin tone as his...and wings. BIG wings. Horns...three eyes...wait..three eyes? Something clicked in his mind that she wasn't exactly the same as the ones who were chasing him. Regardless he still felt threatened by her..and rather than retreat further he launched an attack on her boots.
Teeth sinking into the folds of the boot , he jerked his head back and forth as if trying to break an animals neck. HIs bold body basically wrapped around her one foot as he continued to assault the boot and was failing as it was some sort of material that was not so easily torn.

Mareike stared in shock as the little kid she had previously wanted to help tried to chew through her left boot. All three eyes narrowed and she spread her wings wide as she jiggled her leg wanting to dislodge him but preferably without rippign out his teeth. The urge to kick him again was rising and if she didn't tell anyone no one would know right?

Pepper clung on, like a pit bull he wouldn't release her boot. Though it did taste horrid. Still he wrapped his arms around her leg to get a better hold but he didn't really want to claw up her leg....and thus grabbed for the next best thing. The hem of her skirt.
So one hand reached for the hem of her skirt whilst the other was wrapped around her leg. He wanted to hang on...not be thrown! He was still gorlwing the whole while.

Mareike squealed in surprised as her skirt began to slid off her hips. Letting the cake container fall to the ground she grabbed at the wait band wish both hands to hold it steady. Unwilling pull it back up least it rip and let the whole world see her in her underwear she held it where it was just a few inches down but still protecting her modesty.
" Let go" she snarled wondering if perhaps the boy was deaf or didn't yet understand English.

The squeal was something that Pepper hadn't expected, and in his surprise he released both skirt and her leg and went tumbling onto the ground with a crunch. The bones struck the tile with enough force to crack it but it saved his head from connecting with the tile as well.
He looked a bit dazed up at her, she was holding onto her skirt rather tightly and her tone...though angry...made his heart race. He gazed up at her in a awed sort of manner, before his gaze flickered to the container she had dropped.
Flipping back over he scuttled to where it lay and then reaching out picked it up and then offered the mess back to the girl.

Hiking her skirt back up to where it belonged Mareike watched the dark skinned boy carefully. When he offered her the cake container back she calmed a little. A lot of the icing has rubbed of on the sides but the cake was still edible which gave her an idea. Crouching so as the be closer to the boy's height she lofted the top of the container off and offered the cake to him.
" Here it's cake , it's good." Maybe if she distracted him with food she could get him to stay calm enough not to attack her again.Overs there were a few claw marks on her skirt and teeth marks in her boot but she wasn't really hurt. Still the boy was persistent and a second aggressive encounter would test her patience regardless of his age or the guard's rules.

The boys face clouded over as he smelt that sweetness. It reminded him of the doughnut Luthor had introduced him to. But still...she was offering it to him....he moved a bit closer peering into the container and then reached inside and scooped up a handfull and then he looked at her again tilting his head as he observed her and then mashed the cake into his mouth.
Yes...so...sweet. But at least it tasted better than the doughnut. Munching away happily he had icing smeared all over his fingers and mouth. He then offered her some of the...crushed dessert that was in his hand. She had offered it to him...he should do the same right?

Mareike laughed and shook her head at the childish offer. She had no interest in the cake and particularly not off of the kids hand. H's been using it to walk on the ground only a few minutes ago. " You can have that one I'll make more. " Well Penny would make more , she'd have to since Mareike had promised Shar cake and a Promise was not something the girl broke lightly. Even if she didn't have huge desire to see the full wrath demon she had to keep her word.

Looking at her in a confused manner he then shrugged his shoulders and began licking off his fingers. His long ears twitched as he picked up sound and then he looked at her again. Pointing at her with sticky finger he smiled at her.
"You?" He asked his speech limited, he had only picked up a few things from Luthor. Though he seemed to understand well enough. Trying to formulate words usually was more difficult.
He tapped himself on the chest looking proud. "Pepper..." he then pointed back to her. "You?" Like some sort of horridly distorted Tarzan scene with demons rather than monkeys.

Mareike smiled softly, the kid might be Taylor's age but he clearly hadn't learned all the facility generally taught kids by then. It was sort of funny to watch in a cute way, like watching Taylor discover foods beyond jelly.
" Mareike" She said slowly knowing her name wasn't the easiest to pronounce. The thistle haired girl was still confused as to who Pepper had been running from and more importantly who'd stolen his clothes.
" Are you ok, do you you need help? She asked clearly aware that he needed it but figuring it might help to have him ask rather than force him to accept her presence.
While he was a child and no longer displaying aggression, being near him was like being aroudn another wrath child. she gave her warning signals that he wasn't to be taken lightly. He was too small to challenge her authority though or she'd have been more aggressive with them

He squinted his eyes at the mouthful of name she had. Still he smiled at her though it was a strange sort of smile...one that revealed his teeth. apparently no one had shown him the...less threatening way to smile.
"Mar..." he started and then just gave a shrug of his shoulders. Mar it would be. He tilted his head at the question of help.
"..Help? ..N..no. Game." He said pointing to the white torn peice of cloth that had belong to a technician.
"Mad at Pepper." He continued pointing behind his back. The technicians were there...but spotting the wrath child had promptly hung back and hid behind a corner.
