Ceves awoke to the sun creaking through the window blinds of his motel room. He was laying in bed at the time in a pair of red boxers, letting the sun slowly open his eyes. He slowly rolled out of bed and threw on a pair of black short and a grey tee-shirt. He put on a pair of sandals and walked outside onto the balcony.

"Ah, Ceves," said Margha. She was walking towards him with a bowl of cereal in hand. She was wearing a white tee-shirt and a pair of blue jeans along with a pair of white sneakers.

"Hey, how's it going?" Asked Ceves.

"Da, good, settled in well," said Margha as she walked up to him. "Much like other slaves."

"Yeah, hopefully your fur will grow back around your neck," said Ceves as he leaned on the balcony.

"Net, I keep shaved so I remember what they did to me," said Margha as she leaned on it too."Certainia's might."

"Odd way to remember but whatever."

"Da, so Ceves... May I ask you question?"

"Yeah, what's up?"

"You have family outside of here?"

"Nah, I'm an only child... Parents disappeared when I was seven or eight."

"What happened?"

"Don't know. Just came home from school one day and found that they were gone. I was sent to one of those adoption centers and got adopted kinda quickly. I got sent to an all Anthro boarding school by the government with a few others due to 'behavioral adjustment purposes' which is a way of saying brain washing. Nice place and all until I was about nine. The headmaster there died and was replaced by a Sinderlo. Then the staff started taking cubs out back and executing them in a mass grave to meet the fifty-fifty quota they have. One of my close friends disappeared around when I was ten. Before he left we made a promise to fix the world. Found out before all of this that he was still alive... Only if Conder lived to see him again."

"Da, I am sorry to ask. My parents sold me as slave for money."

"Eh, parents have moments of being idiots... Some more than others."

"Da... Ceves... I thought you were putting down magnum for while?"

"I am."

"Then why is it on leg?" Ceves looked down to see that Kingslayer was in a black holster on the outside of his right thigh.

"The fuck? I didn't put it in there," said Ceves as he pulled it out. He put the pistol and holster on the door next to the door in his room and closed the door behind him. "Weird ass fucking gun... Did anyone get any info on a medic around here?"

"Net."

"Damn... That means no right?"

"Yes."

"That's what I feared."

"Da."

"Hey guys," said Tendro as he walked up to them with Certainai, Ulfrin, and Lanchar.

"Hey, weird gun is being weird again. Thing teleported itself and a holster onto my leg," said Ceves.

"Is that even possible?" Asked Ulfrin.

"Maybe it's a new power?" Asked Lanchar from the back of the group.

"Who are you?" Asked Margha addressing Lanchar.

"Oh yeah, Margha, President Lanchar. Pres, Margha," said Ceves as he waved his paw at the two.
