Re-purr with her wide eyes looks at the disturbing sight. In front of her, her mistress's mouth is blown off and now that projectile is stuck in her throat and has pierced it. It should be impossible for her to ever speak again.
But there is some sort of moment in her flesh. It is moving and seem to be collectively starting to join together. But that process will take half a day or so. She will probably be able to speak soon. However, that projectile will cause few problems in her fast healing process.
She also has observed that her Mistress's movements are quite stiff, even after such a terrifying attack. It could be cause of some drug that is given to her or maybe some blessing is at play.
One of the strangest thing is that the contraption around her neck seem to break a bit. Not cause of the projectile, but because of something different like misfortune. Re-purr would like to argue that how can her misfortune can ever do such a thing, it isn't a physical force. But even she knows that just her being here can cause odd things to happen.
So, her presence is enough to destroy complication contraption like those. She just is like a black cat that cause misfortune to happen. Even though that misfortune is supernaturally unnatural.
'This isn't my fault, i promise. it is all his fault...'
This whole thing is planned by Cody to shut her off. And he used Re-purr as bait to distract Skin. If not for this plan, Skin could possibly destroy the projectile with her teeth. But now that it could her by surprise. She couldn't do anything but get her mouth destroy by the…metal dick.
However, worse of all, she was also the target of it. if she hadn't moved away. That projectile would've gone straight through her head and she would've died on the spot.
Only reason she is still alive is because of knowing her own luck. It is better to never sit at one spot. You never know when something decides to jump at you. In this case, a cannon is shot at you to blow your brains out.
She looks at her mistress and finds her staring back at her. There is no familiarity like before in her bright red eyes. Now there is only bloodlust and desire to rip her apart.
This sight is enough to scare her to death. So, she runs away in all four like a cat in fear. Abandoning the monstrous Chosen all alone in darkness.
The red eyes follow her and demine her as a… coward. Skin will deal with when she will get free.
Re-purr crawls away with her tail between her legs. She shouldn't have come here at all. Maybe the saying 'Curiosity kills the cat' is real. Why does everything bad has to happen to her and her alone?
Now she has even made an enemy out of her own mistress. She will kill her for betraying her. But she didn't know that a cannon will be shot at her mistress. It isn't her fault.
But she didn't say anything and just left too.
'I am dead. I am dead. I am dead. This is all his fault. All because of… '
Without even speaking the name of the devil, Cody appears. He is just staring into the jail cell with a stoic face. But underneath that stoic there is a little doubt and a little fear.
Beside him, there is a literal cannon shaped object is placed. She isn't well known of any weapon of this sort. But she knows a cannon when she sees one and this is definitely a cannon.
That thing was pointed at her head.
She would say it herself that she is used to getting abused by everyone else around her. But that has crossed the line. So, she gets angry and shouts at the man who put her in that situation.
"What the hell, Cody. You could've killed me."
Cody finally looks away from the jail cell and sees Re-purr screaming at him for some reason. He rolls his eyes and answers.
"You didn't die though. So, what is the fuzz?"
She gets close to his face and shout even louder. There were no curses or death threats in her words. Just genuine disbelief that someone would do that to her. She either is too oblivious where she is or she needs a reality check. But Cody doesn't care much as his job is completed and he feel no threat from this wild chosen.
She is really like a cat who is meowing cause she didn't got her breakfast in time. All in all, she is really well mannered than an ordinary Chosen.
Cody replies.
"You shout so much. My ears are starting to hurt. Can you tone it down please? We should be focus on that red demon in the cell. What is she?"
She looks at him in confused and asks.
"What do you mean?"
Cody replies.
"Didn't you see? She survived a cannon shot. A Chosen shouldn't be able to survive something that without a correct blessings. But that wild prevented her brain from blowing up into pieces. She was caught by surprise but she still bitten it down into my molded projectile enough to not let it blow her brains out. Like how? That it not humanly possible. Or Chosenly possible."
Re-purr hears that and smiles with pride.
"Well, that is my mistress. Of course she will survive your schemes. She is the super strong."
Cody notices that she literally forgot about her pervious tangent of 'You could've killed me'. Now she is smiling like that didn't happen. Her attention span is literally like a cat.
He is starting to thing that she is actually a cat. Or just delusional.
"Wait when did she become your…? Nevermind. You are too delusional to have a chat with…"
Re-purr pouts a little after she hears that he is calling her delusional. But then she remembers one of his words.
"Wait. You made this metal dick?"
He first says "Eh?" in confusion. Then he replies.
"What do you mean a dick? It looks nothing like that. It is purely made to gag someone out so they can't talk anymore. And it is made by me. My blessing just helps me mold inorganic substances like clay or something."
A little smile appears on her face.
He has been trying to find a way to make cat ears for herself. But she hasn't found any way to do that yet. But now, she has found someone who can just make her a pair of cat ears.
"Cody. You are my friend now, right? Can you please change this metal dick into a pair of cat ears? I need to look like a cat to be a cat. Cat ears are absolutely needed for that. You are so creative in this stuff. So, please help this little cat. Meow."
He tries to argue "when did they become friends?". But she has gone to far into her delusional and she won't listen to him.
He can just deny her and get over with her. After all, his work is done and he has no use for her anymore. It was also true that he was planning on killing her with that cannon. Shooting through her to hit his target.
But strangely enough, he isn't sure if he wants to deny her.
"I am not creative- "
She interrupts.
"What are you talking about? You are one hell of a creative guy. You made this unique… dick thinge… and then used it in such a cool way. You can definitely can make a pair of cat ears for me."
He wanted to deny that too. He has never been creative at all. But when he looks at her face. She can't seem to argue with her. It is like her positivity is infecting him in some way.
He sighs and answers.
"Yeah, sure. I will try to make one just because you helped me."
Her face brightens up and she screams praises at him.
"You are so awesome my genius creative friend. Oh, how I have been trying to find someone who can make a beautiful pair of ears for me. Thank you so much. You are great Cody."
She smiles like someone without any care. She almost looks like a child instead of a powerful wild Chosen.
He would call it an act to try to deceive him. But it really doesn't feel like one at all. It is all so genuine and innocent. Even after suffering in hell, she managed to carry a little of her child like self with her.
Cody isn't sure if it is a good thing. But he does finds it amusing to have her around her. If nothing her, she is a bunch of positivity and he needs some positivity in his depressing life.
Re-purr on the other hand, can't keep her joy on her mind.
'I finally secured my cat ears. It felt like a part of me is missing. But now I will finally be like a cat…'
She smiles but then her smiles disappeared completely. Because she hears a familiar voice that she never wanted to hear ever again.
"That is true. You don't look at all like a scaredy cat without those cat ears of yours. Now you just look scared."
His lips almost touch her ears and she didn't even notice when did he even got behind her. This voice that come out of those lips mocks her, berates her and reminds her of her sins. It reminds her that she isn't enough and can't do anything all by herself.
'Why is he here…?'
The voice answers like it can hear her thoughts.
"Well, I am a guideless Chosen. So, where would I go you know?"
Re-purr tires to shut her thoughts off. But she couldn't do it. She couldn't even hide the fear from her face. It is written all over her face that she is far too much afraid of him. And all she can thing is that…
'I'm scared. I'm scared. I'm scared…'
Cody looks at her and finds this quite odd. Seeing her in so much terror is quite a unique sight. Her expression changing from joy to fear happened in an instant. Like somebody pulled a leaver of sorts. The one who terrorized her is none other than Reaper himself.
Reaper, a man who is infamous for his sadistic nature. Her blessing let him read anyone's thoughts. But despite that he is still very much good at fighting. He is powerful and even Cody isn't a big fan of him.
This infamous man is nothing like Mor. Mor is much kinder.
Reaper reads Cody's thoughts but doesn't mind him being compared to Mor. World of Chosen is just comparing each other. Who is better and stronger than the other one.
So, it is obvious that he would call Mor better than him. It is just odd that he compared him based on kindness. As Mor isn't that kind. You wouldn't want to be on the side where you have to deal with Mor. That sure is like a nightmare come true.
He can be compared to Mor. But Reaper knows that in really doesn't matter much. It is just Chosen preferring whatever benefits them.
Reaper speaks.
"So, is your job done then?"
Cody replies.
"Yes, sir. The red demon is shut down. Now she won't be able to speak until her judgement day."
Reaper looks at the red demon a little. Then shrugs and ignores her. He doesn't carry grudges. Even if he does want to… he will take revenge when the right time comes. For now, he doesn't want anything to with that demon.
"Well, good job then. I am taking this Wild Chosen then. She just left the investigation room. Glad that you took care of her or who knows what she would do. Probably nothing… Ha."
He speaks as his body is touching Re-purr's own body. He is making her uncomfortable and getting enjoyment of it. Of course, Chosen has no sexual desires. But that doesn't mean they are unfamiliar with it. Insanity doesn't need logic.
And with that, he takes her away. She looks terrified the whole time and now she will be left alone with him too.
She really is unlucky. Such is the life of a fortuneless Chosen.
Cody just watches her and remembers what she requested form him. He isn't sure if he should try making her cat ears or not. But he can try. He wouldn't loss anything from trying.
With the metal projectile in his hand that Re-purr gave back to him. He thinks ofone thing to himself.
"This does not look anything like a dick. What was she talking about? It is just a very poorly made nail. She really just lied to me on the face."
Cody sighs and leaves to clean the place.
