There is a large orange tabby cat exploring around the Nexus. He seems to be looking for someone in particular. Now, that in itself is not unusual.

However, this particular tabby cat is wearing a make-shift holster around his belly and there seems to be a Starfleet phaser encased in the holster. Only the top of the phaser is visible to the eye... but it looks covered with soot.

The cat is also being followed by a glowing blue light very closely.

After a few moments of being frustrated of not seeing anyone's face, from where he is on the ground... the orange tabby cat jumps his way up a few different Nexus fixtures, until he is higher up. He stares around the Nexus and makes a soft meowing sound. Almost questioning.

Anyone care to try to answer his question.

"Over here mya.."

It's a whisper, quiet enough that even Crookshanks' magnificent hearing would have trouble picking up on it right away. Nekomata beckons with a bloody claw and leads the pair of them out a side door before the blood in the air starts a frenzy among the demons. They don't want to stick around inside after all of that.

The demon is wiping at her mouth, looking a little roughed up but ultimately no worse for the wear.

"Ya get it?"

Crookshanks follows Nekomata out the side door, until they are in a safer spot. He looks over Neko with concern.

But then places the scale on the ground. And meows, puffing his chest out. Their plan worked. They can help his witch!

"Dyon't worry about me, occupational hazard. I knew what I was gettin' into when I agreed to hunt a demon mya."

There's not exactly much in the way of loyalty for these creatures to one another as is and Nekomata is an outcast to boot who has chosen to work with humans. There's no guilt about attacking the lamia, just a profound gratitude that Crookshanks has the scale so they can get out of this world and back to the Nexus.

She'll lead the cat back to the door and hold it open for him.

"Come on, mya."

Crookshanks is quick to return to the Nexus, glad to be heading back to a familiar area. He glances back at Nekomata, wondering where they should go now. He can lead her to the door that belongs to his witch, if that is the desire.

"That should be the hardest thing sorted and done with. I got no idea where to look for plant stuff though, unless we're hunting it fresh in the wilds."

The cat demon sighs and licks at a wound on her paw.

[mudblood_andproud]

Crookshanks meows. He is sure they can find a shop for the plant stuff. Then she doesn't have to hunt again. He is already concerned about her wound.

"That's awful gentlemanly of you, nya."

She doesn't taste any poison in the wound so it's probably fine. That whole fiasco could have gone a lot worse and so long as they're done and out of there Nekomata's fine not thinking about it much harder than that.

There's a reason she fled to the Nexus and that life is definitely the biggest one.

"I don't got a lot of money but my boss doesn't let me run around completely broke." Never know who you're gonna need to bribe, after all. "Let's go get your stuff."

Crookshanks leads Neko towards a street filled with magical shops. There is a plant and herb shop at the corner, that would offer the other supplies.

He is sure that his witch will repay Neko back, when they meet up.
