Feles let out a snarl from behind the gag, trying to twist away from Spina's touch. She was a traitor! The red eyes narrowed as he tried to push himself away, pain shooting up his leg from the wound that still made itself known. This time, however, the area around it burned even after the pain had gone... he had to get away from these two. Let the insane keep house together for all he cared.
Letting his head fall back, he pulled on his magic, finally able to focus. In that moment, the bonds seemed to fall from his wrists and ankles, the cat rolling off of the bed to the side. With a growl, however, he realised that Laniger and Spina were now between him and the door. One hand came up to claw away the gag as he backed away from the two, making note of where the door and windows were.
((Not sure if that's how escape works or not... the blasted spell list in the guild ate itself and isn't showing past level 4 spells. Escape is level 5. Either way, it stands to reason that it would let him get out of the bonds.))

Aranea swiftly followed Lupinus, the forest soon closing up behind them as they made their way home. She moved fast as she was able to, savouring the feeling that soon Feles would be with her again. But she could not let herself dwell on sentimental feelings right now. Once back she made her way swiftly downstairs, leaving Lupinus to his own devices. She snatched up a small bottle of chloroform that she had coerced her Kithain into bringing here, and ran to the dungeons, finally halting at Muris's cell. She ran her nails across the bars and looked down at the Fey, seething that she had not been able to force out who the traitor was, but determined to have Feles by her side again.

Spina watched the boy get up, slowly she took a few small steps back, watching the kitten with amusment. He would no doubt tell the Moon Court every word she had said. But it was about time they found out. Her lips curled into a twisted grin as she watched him try to find his way out.

Weakened, sickened, wounded, and still the boy fought. Laniger was between oracle and feline fey in a heartbeat, gripping him close by the scruff of his pale neck.
"The kitten has business outside. And since he kindly helped me complete mine...." his amber eye searched the bleary crimson eyes a moment, hands steady against the youth's failing struggles. "Let me show you the bushes."
First the window was flung open wide, and then the Moon Courtier was flung out after.

Feles barely had time to get a grasp on what was happening before he felt himself falling. There was no time to try and fly... all he could do was curl himself around and TRY to land safely. Unfortunately, it was a less than graceful attempt as he crashed into the shrubbery and rolled into the grass, gasping for breath. He lay on his side, curled with his arms wrapped around his chest as he tried to get his bearings through the haze in his vision. The burning and pain in his leg was now making it harder and harder to shove aside, and the cat knew that he had to get help fast. Aranea would know what to do... she'd have something that would help. And he had to tell her about Spina.
Snarling softly to himself, the cat made a vow that he was NEVER leaving the castle again. Ever. He was sore, exhausted, overheated, the sun was sending prickles of pain over his skin and making him squint from the brightness... and as he looked at the scratches and scrapes on his hands and arms, and saw the leaves and twigs in his hair and tail, he cursed loudly. There was NATURE in his fur! Pushing himself up, he staggered away from Laniger's 'home', not caring where he was going or how far he would get. Just so long as he put distance between them.
((I figure he could be found by the other Sun Court on their way to Laniger's... he's got no clue what direction he's headed, nor does he particularly care at the moment. The wound in his leg is infected, he's feverish and likely won't make it too far before he falls over.))

*Lilium took the childs hand and lead her into the castle. She looked back at Equus* Take Filix and get the Moon Fey. Obviously you know where he is. *She was very unhappy with todays events. Someone had captured a moon court fey and she had no knowledge of this. And who is Laniger? Why is that name familiar?*

Her lips twisted into a grin as Laniger threw the kitten from his window. "Laniger... You'll be coming with me." she siad teasingly, her words coming out like venom. Before he could say anything she put her hand on his shoulder, teleporting them both away from either of the castles the instant she had touched him.

Pappila had started back home, when it occured to her that the brutality she'd seen should probably be stopped. She had been too preoccupied with her own thoughts to realize this, and just now wanted to turn back and try to persuade the Ram to give up the young Feline. She was expecting the Feline to be in poor health. What she WASN'T expecting was to almost literally run into him.
"Oh dear..."
She looked forwards at him, and saw that he was quite unable to walk any sort of distance. The Ram had been more cruel than she had imagined. Well, if she was going to do something about the brutality, here would be a good place to start.
"Excuse me? Can you hear me?"
It seemed the logical thing to ask. Afterall, if the young man couldn't hear her, then he couldn't possibly follow her or give her permission to drag him, now could he? And if the Ram happened to follow,... why, she'd claim finder's fee. Or something of the sort. No use in giving the young man right back to the man who's put him in this condition in the first place, now was there?
"Hello?"

Who was that? Wings? Bright colours? "Sun Court..." Feles hissed, swaying on his feet for a moment as he tried to figure out which Papilla was the bigger threat.
There were three of her in his vision at the moment.
Laniger had been right. He was sickened, weakened and wounded... and the three in conjunction were starting to take their toll. "Ge'way fromme..." he murmured, taking a swing at one of the butterfly-winged girls that he could see... and only managing to throw himself off balance as he collapsed to the ground, the blessed darkness closing in on him once more.

Filix had stayed quiet and listened instead of doing or saying anymore. She felt a bit torn now, and just nodded when the Queen told her and Equus what to do.
Of course, when she realized that meant time alone with the teenager, her heart sank. Filix had hoped this wouldn't happen for a looooong while yet.
Still, she couldn't remember hearing of a Laniger, and if she had, the memory had been lost over the thousands of years trapped in the window. Filix was curious to know who he was.

Equus swallowed, but made a bow towards the queen. Filix. Also unpleasant for him, mostly for the same reason that she might feel strange about being in close quarters with him. The fey's face however was kept blank, impassive, and not hinting at the turmoil in his mind, as he rose and faced the older fey.
"Come, this way," he told her, turning around, and starting to jog back towards the way he came, slowing a bit so that Filix could keep up with him, and giving him a few more moments to plan out their tactics for the upcoming mission...

Muris blinked, looking up from the peaceful slumber she had slipped into while they were away. The nails scratching had really been what woke her up, more than anything else.
Her mind wasn't fuzzy anymore, though. For that she was glad.
"...what now?" she sighed, "have you not finished your fun yet?"

'I have not. But we have not the time for me to carry on toying with you,' she unhooked the manacles from the chains that attached Muris to the wall but left her hands bound together.
'You are to go now,' she said simply, tugging on the Fey to get her to stand.

The startled Butterfly squeaked softly when the drugged, injured Feline took a swing at her. Well... to the left of her. She stepped back, and was about to turn and run, when the poor being muttered something, and collapsed utterly. Well... this was odd. What was she supposed to do? She couldn't just let him lay there. She bent next to him, and shook him a little. Even if he WAS Moon Court, he was still entitled to not lay on the ground. Attempting to lift him was humorous. He wasn't so much as heavy, but a burden to try and lift, due to body type and shape. So lifiting wasn't going to work. Well... Dragging the poor thing was just cruel. She looked around hastily, knowing that she wouldn't find anything to treat him with out here. He didn't look very well, truth be told. And Moon Court or not...
"Now how am I supposed to get you anywhere, if you just lie there like that."
She put her hands on her hips for a moment, then stood, and looked down at him, her face a mask of concentration. She -could- by all rights, levitate him... but what if he woke up? Therein lay the problem. Maybe she should just sit here and wait for him to awaken. Which is exactly what she did, seating herself beside him, and falling into deep thought. Laniger wanted him to some ill purpose... whatever could it be? She'd have to ask the boy when he woke.

Muris blineked, uncomprehending. She was to...go? That didn't make sense. She was going to die. She had thought...well, the Moon Court...why would they let her go?
She hobbled to her feet, not believing and yet daring to hope.
But...why were they going anywhere at all?
