Welcome to Gaia! ::

The cat was standing on two feet? The cat was circling around him on two feet? That alone nearly blew his mind but what was most astonishing was how fast she was. He tried to remain calm and keep focused on where she was so he could be ready for her attack. When the lunge came he ducked his head to avoid injury and made a swipe at her with his fist, but she was moving so fast it was hard for him to predict if it would really connect or not.

He never thought he would ever consider a cat as a dangerous enemy, but that was currently the case. For the moment he was so focused on Knives that he nearly forgot that Belarus was actually the main threat for him to be wary of.

Andrew internally cursed when she went for him again and realized he wasn't going to be fast enough to doge her this time. The cat's claws bit into his side and hip. The force of her attack caused him to fall backwards hard into some furniture he couldn't care enough about to identify at the moment. Tennessee quickly tried to push Knives off of him with a with a few angry curses.

Violet had been watching from the corner of the door way where she had peeked her head in. The piglet's eyes went wide in horror when she saw Tennessee fall hard. Distressed that he was in danger and knowing she couldn't fight, the piglet ran as fast as she could back to the dorm where the other states were still gathered.

Where I come from tryin' to make a livin'
And workin' hard to get to heaven

"Really? I sure hope Alex feels better soon." It worried her that her brother was sick. She had been looking forward to that dance with him too but his health is much more important.

"Uh morning Natalia." the Carolina said nervously to her roommate feeling uneasy with the tension she felt going between Belarus and Tennessee. And there with Natalia was that bizarre cat.

Before she knew it the cat was attacking Andrew. At first she was in disbelief until it clawed him and hissed, reminding her of the black panthers that are rumored to be roaming in North Carolina. Charlotte was the one with weapons but she didn't want to hurt someone's pet especially with the owner right there. Oh where was Ukraine at a time like this? While she was being frantic on what to do, it appeared that Christian came to the rescue just in time.

Charlotte turned the cat's owner, surely she was the one that allowed the cat to got psycho. "Natalia, please call it off. I doubt Mr. Ivan would be happy to hear that you are allowing your feline to harm my family." she stated in a firm voice and narrowed her eyes to show that she was serious. She was only familiar with Ivan because she was in the gardening club with him. With her brothers now armed, it really felt like the cold war all over again. The Carolina didn't draw hers out. "And if you have a problem with my brothers then talk to me about it. I wouldn't dare dream of going as low as to using other means. Not only is it rude but it's cowardly."

"Oh hey Hal." she said with a nervous smile. "Do you mind putting that gun away? There's too many out right now as you can see." gesturing towards Georgia and Tennessee, excluding herself. It was good to see that the states all took care of each other but this was a bit unnecessary to act uncivilized right now. The last thing she wanted right now was to get Russia, America, the Disciplinary Committee, and the school to get involved in this matter if it could be prevented.

Tennessee seemed to think now was the perfect time to act uncivilized. Based on the angry and dangerous look in his eyes he would be more than happy to pull the trigger on Georgia's gun if Belarus gave him an excuse. He felt a little better having someone else in the room who was armed and on their side to be honest. Andrew wasn't about to openly argue with his sister in the heat of the moment unless he had to, but he shot Hal a glance to let him know he thought it was best to keep it out and ready even if he wasn't holding it aimed at anyone.

Andrew was not happy he was going to need to throw away another shirt thanks to that cat's claws. He wasn't sure what that animal's nails were made of, but it felt like Knives was a very adequate name for her. Yesterday he'd gotten torn to shreds by Mexico, his butt was still sore from Georgia's tantrum and now Belarus' cat had just tried to finish him off. Why did he seem to be everyone's favorite target lately?

Well, it would be nice if he could pretend he didn't know why Belarus was after him, but he was very confident it had more to do with him being Tennessee than their conversation the night before.

"Yeah... I think so," he said although he obviously felt very threatened by this woman and pissed. Andrew didn't know what she had in store for him but he could imagine it was nothing good.

Tennessee's focus on Belarus faltered when he saw Cherelle enter the room. His eyes widened on sight of the girl charging into the middle of the "battlefield" even though Belarus was standing right there.

"Cherelle, get back!" he warned as he reached for Seychelles instead of the gun. He didn't know how low his current enemy might sink in order to get to her brother's enemies.
