Striker's skin was back to normal and upon waking he grinned some. He knew Lena didn't get up early ever. It was time for that payback, she was in so much trouble. Wearing only his sleep pants he went to her room and opened the door. Sneaking in and laying on the bed only to find out that what he thought was the little succuimp nestled in bed was actually pillows cleverly placed under the blankets. "Clever girl..."

------

Lena meanwhile had awoken early, set up the ruse, left a clue and ran off to hide. She was in a tree, much farther away than usually ventured from the house. She had a feeling deep down that today was going the day he got his teasing in on her, well she was gonna make him work for it dammit.

-----

Striker got dressed, reading the clue, going over it. "Ah grow up but Ah don't move... there are sometimes many of me..." he climbed up on Bombproof's back. Looking around he lifted a brow. "Trees? Shit Ah bet her crazy ass went and hid in the woods." He groaned and started wandering in, Bombproof's fiery hide lighting the way.

He looked about, the woods in Wrath were dangerous, no telling what or who you might run into. This crazy little succuimp loved testing his limits on a constant basis, but damn if he didn't enjoy it. 

--------

Lena was happily enjoying sitting in a tree, tail wagging about. This was all a neat little game to her, some fun and anticipation for what was to come. She heard a sound, the crunch of something breaking a stick below and not far away. A beam of light entered the dark canopy and she turned her head. That had to be a flashlight, Striker knew better than that it couldn't be him and Ray, well his place was in the other direction.

Who is the world would be out here with a flashlight?

She was about to move. "Hey!" About to give whoever it was a serious talking to. She jumped down. "HEY!" She shouted again then fell silent, something blunt had knocked her out from behind. 

---------

Striker had Bombproof going at a trot until he heard the shout. She was yelling at someone or something. The Hellhorse felt his rider tense and took off towards the shout at a gallop. Another shout, Striker clicked his tongue then leaned forward, the horse taking off at a dead run. Barely missing trees and rocks to gain speed. There was no other sound, Striker felt his heart racing in his ears. 

No... no. He growled suddenly. "Let 'er buck." He said and Bombproof hit top speed, using all reserved energy in his legs and lungs, leaving a trail of scorched ground behind him. The horse knew where the voice had come from he halted suddenly when the arrived at the spot. Nostrils flaring, he was agitated.

Striker jumped off and checked the area, there was no struggle, plenty of unusual disturbance to the area though. She was here, knocked out and tied up... dragged away. His tail rattled and he followed the trail, Bombproof right beside him. Whoever had taken her... was going to die. 

-------

Lena woke, blinking blurry eyed. She moved to rub her eyes but found herself tied to a support beam. She got wide eyed and struggled some. Her legs and tail were tied up as well. She groaned and looked around. "What the..." 

"Oh finally awake." Came a voice from behind her. A very familiar voice, she huffed some. "Little brat, knocking me out and leaving me on the floor. What the hell did you do to me?"

Realization hit her hard, it was Blitz. He had remembered some of what happened. Moxxie and Millie were probably here too. Fuck her luck. "What did I do? What do you mean?" Yeah she was playing it off to buy time, hopefully.

"Don't play dumb with me, I'm better at it." Blitz huffed. 

"Sir... you don't play at being dumb..." 

"Mox..."

Yep the three imps she hoped to never see again were here. Well she was in deep trouble for sure. 

Millie sighed some. "Let me handle her." She moved around in front of Lena and sat down. "Okay lil' missy. Ya came to our place, knocked out the boss and took the only angelic weapon we had. Why?"

She thought fast and turned her head. "It was stolen from me, it's part of a set." She growled and squirmed to get free. 

"Is that so? Why didn't ya just tell the boss that?" Millie asked. 

"Because I wouldn't have believed her." Blitz muttered. 

"I just wanted my gun back..." she pouted.

Millie smiled a little. "Ah believe ya."

"Mills we barely know her, she knocked Blitz out and stole a gun." Moxxie protested.

"A gun she prolly assumes we took from her." Millie pointed out.

Blitz groaned some. "She still knocked me out. Don't I deserve some sorta... compensation?"

"Now Blitz... ya been hurt worse." Millie chuckled. 

"Uh.. guys.. can you un-"

The door flung open and Striker stood there rattling his tail, revolver in hand. "Give me my girl!" 

Everyone froze staring at Striker. Blitz lifted a brow. "Your girl?"

"Yeah, my girlfriend!" He hissed and walked over to Lena. "You okay pumpkin?"

Lena blushed and nodded as he untied her. 

"Wait a second..." Moxxie growled. "She's your girlfriend!? You stole the gun for him didn't you... you tiny thief!?"

Lena twitched, agitation and ire rising. 

"Mox... never comment on the height of a person.. that's rude hun."

Once untied Striker had to hold back Lena from ripping apart Moxxie with her claws and teeth.

"Wait a minute.. you two are dating..." Blitz stared. "Yer dating an assassin!"

"Yeah.. I know and I love him." Lena said. She leaned back on Striker who nuzzled her. 

"Ya'll took my girlfriend... tied her up and now yer being assholes." He growled and picked her up after putting away his gun. He held her close and rattled his tail. "Ya ever touch my girl again with yer filthy damn hands and ah'll kill ya." He said and walked out leaving the other three imps rather dumbfounded. 

"Did they hurt ya pumpkin?" He asked and looked to her.

"A little but.. I'm okay. Let's go home okay." She nuzzled into him. 

"Of course love."
