Marten picked them up, tossing them up and down in his hand. "What the hell..." he murmured. He patted the ratfish absently as he looked at them.

Jacobo took one of the rings from Marten as he tossed them in the air, "What are these?" he asked no one in particular.
He made an attempt at tossing the ratfish with his free hand.

((Additional info in Post 7 Info Post Thing. Important Notice Part 2, I guess.))
Marten observed several different markings along the bands of the rings.
The ratfish squirmed as Marten patted it. It froze suddenly, then shot out of the van with a notebook.

Marten was observing the ring, but the ratfish made a dash. Seeing that it had something, Marten said, "Jacobo!" before taking off after it.
He wanted to see what it had.
((How do I accumlate Awesome Points? Just be awesome and such? Or is it like, writing skill and such?))

The ratfish sprinted away with the notebook, diving down a storm drain.

((Sweet, I like Awesome Points, lol))
Jacobo growled as the ratfish got away from him and chased after it, not caring about what it had. He pocketed the ring, he dove for the ratfish and groped through the storm drain for it.

Marten watched and, figuring he would need both hands, absently slid the rings onto his fingers. Then he froze.
"Oh man," he whispered. He had no idea what would happen. Maybe he would die. He stood stock-still, looking at his hand. Pretty soon...

The ratfish was nowhere to be seen.
Marten stared at his hand. Nothing happened.

Marten relaxed after a minute. "What's the big deal with these things?" he asked himself softly.
With a shrug, he bent to help Jacobo. "How's it going? Find him?"

Marten remembered what their short-lived driver had said - the rings somehow were activated to create weapons, or something?

"Dammit! I think he got away." Jacobo informed Marten, standing, "I'm gonna kill that thing..." he mumbled.
He removed his ring and looked at it, "What is this thing?"

Marten didn't answer, absorbed by his ring. He turned slightly away from Jacobo, raised his hand, and...

Marten's fist clenched involuntarily and a straight-bladed knife, sharpened on both ends, appeared in his hand.

Marten nearly shouted in shock, but he caught himself.
"I made a knife," he said in disbelief. Still, that seemed a bit clunky. It took four rings to make a knife? He could think of way cooler stuff to make. Like a gun. Or maybe a drill, to go after the ratfish.
