"Huh?.." Cypher blinked as the chain was grabbed, but quickly moved his paw away from it. Best listen to what Smith says... "Where I stayed before? ....it isn't much...really...just another cave...." The will to keep John and Jane out of this was slowly fading away, but the pup still held onto some tiny thread of disobedience.

Smith yanked on the chain. "Now, pup, you really should just tell me. Unless you'd want some...very unpleasent things to befall you, or whoever or whatever you may be protecting." Smith was very keen at observation, there was only one possible reason Cypher wouldn't tell him, and that would be because he wanted to protect someone or something.

Cypher whined slightly, trying to pull back away from Smith. "It's nothing important...really!" The pups ears flattened back, as he once more lowered himself to the ground in submission, and fear. "It's just a cave that I stayed at...with two others...but they wouldn't be very helpful to you....they don't even have any skills or anything!"

Not important? Obviously a lie, Cypher was trying to protect the two he knew before, this edged Smith on, "Tell me everything you know about them."

Cypher hung his head, silent. It was obvious he had some sort of internal struggle going on. His last shreds of decency were fighting against the corruption, and they were losing fast. "I...." The pup, desperate to get out of this conflict, turned and made a run for it. Stupid move, considering Smith still held the other end of his makeshift leash. Soon reaching the end of the chain, Cypher yiped and found himself squirming on the ground. "Let me go!"

Smith stood up slowly and made his way over to the pup. His body looming over Cypher's. He looked down at Cypher, his patience had run out once again, extending the rest of his tentacles while the last was coiling tight to Cypher's collar. "Excuse me?! Let you go?! There is no letting you go now Mr. Reagan!" He raised his needle like tail like a scorpion ready to attack. "Tell me what I want to know! Or I will find them myself, and kill them, then kill you!"

Flat on his back, Cypher stared up at Smith with wide eyes, body quaking in fear once more. The pup whimpered, the violent moodswings of Smith freaking him out. "I...." A flash...something about this situation seemed familiar...like he had made deals like this before...but it just wasn't possible... "T-t-there's t-t-two of t-them...m-male and f-f-female...m-married..." The pup felt overwhelmingly guilty...but it had to be done, to save himself from that deadly looking tail. "The male...he a-always t-thinks before he a-acts...he once c-c-came back covered in c-cactus needles... The f-female is the s-s-smarter one...often s-stuck taking care of the o-o-other..." Cypher squirmed, feeling rather vulnerable. "I d-don't know a-about their past...I swear! None of us e-ever talked about the d-days before we m-met..."

Smith relaxed, letting go of the chain and laying his tail at rest. "There, that wasn't so hard now was it?" ...Smith thought for a minute and decided that it would be best to meet these two sometime soon, possibly with the help of Cypher corrupt them as well. All in due time he supposed.
"Now, is there anyone who would be considered a threat to our operations? Best to deal with those ones first...if we can get them to join us then we'll be better off, however, if they refuse, we'll need to eliminate them."

"N-not that I can t-think of..." Released, Cypher got back to his feet and started inching away.
....in mere moments the pup made another break for it, paws flying and tiny wings flapping as he ran for the entrance. He quickly broke through the waterfall, and without a glance back continued to go. Perhaps the agent should worry about breaking his current slave completely before looking for others?
Unfortunately for Cypher, the chain dragged behind him a bit, offering Smith the perfect opportunity to grab it.

Smith was taken back, whoever the pup had connection to, these memories of them were keeping him from completely controlling the pup. He wouldn't have this at all. Quickly dashing after the pup, he seemingly shattered the waterfall into a million pieces as he broke through it. Smith quickly spotted the pup, dragging the chain...the chain would prove useful once more as Smith extended one of his tentacles and grabbed it. "You cannot outrun an Agent, Mr. Reagan." Smith dragged Cypher towards him, making sure to make it as painful as possible. If Cypher had truely forgotten about fearing Agents, this was sure to bring that fear back with a vengance.

Cypher whined in frustration as he felt himself being dragged backwards. Whimpering, the pup scrambled to grab onto something to stop his trip, but to no avail.
Outrun an agent...outrun an agent...the pup shook his head, whimpering, as memories started to reemerge in his mind. Howling, Cypher attacked the source of the physical and mental pain...Smith himself. As the pup found himself dragged closer and closer, he made the bold move to leap at Smith, paws outstretched and teeth bared in his best imitation of a threatening move.

"Idiot." Was all Smith needed to say as he launched all of his tentacles forward at Cypher clamping them tight to the pups small body.

Attack stopped, the pup squirmed helplessly in the grasp of the six tentacles. "Get away from me!!" The cry was more intense than his previous ones, the renewed memories of agents and just what they did to people making the situation that much more desperate in Cypher's eyes.

"Guess last time wasn't enough." Smith said calmly. He raised his tail once more and plugged it into the back of Cypher's skull. "Just give up you worthless scum. You can have anything you want, you just need to obey me."

A short cry of pain was all that was heard before Cypher's body went limp, the pup completely helpless once ensnared and plugged in.
