( I think we previously discussed, or it was my impression that Cori and Tony would fight first, and the Prrasha would intervine. Cori isn't much of a fighter, and if he was taken out second, then Anna would be stuck with two helpless cats.)
Coricopat grunted slightly when she jerked him forward, his lithle body sprawling out to catch himself before he face planted. Nevertheless, he managed to steady himself before Anna noticed his little trip, and followed behind her, his fingers flexing upon contact.
"Okay," He mumbled, looking around as the crossed the street. Human vehicles were unpredictable after all. Plus, Cori had a feeling, - a intuition that they eren't alone, and the ex-mystic didn't like it. He shouldn't have been surprised though, he was always followed in one way or another.
"There isn't much more to see...it'll just get bigger the closer we get, and no matter how hard you'll strain your neck to look up, seeing the top is nearly impssible!"

Annabella grinned and motioned, "Still, I want to see it."
That's when she noticed he had laughed and motioned to his friends; turning as if walking the opposite way. Had he seen that someone else was there with them? Most likely. She wouldn't put it past Tony to realize that there were more people that wanted Cori alive than dead.
Her being one of them.
She got them safely across the street and continue to walk, never letting on that something was wrong. She'd stop and look at something if it caught her attention, mostly the stores and shops with their Christmas displays. She grinned as a young girl noticed her and pointed, "Kitty!" She called.
((OH, right. XD Sorry, it's difficult with the Ipod so I'm not used to going back and checking.)

Prrasha frowned at Anna's sudden reaction towards Big Ben. It seemed like she had seen something to warrant this reaction. The black queen scanned the area and could only see some other Jellicles leave, none of them known to her. Since those didn't seem to take an interest in the pair she followed, she dismissed them for the time being and continued to follow her fellow Jellicle henchcats on their way through London, always keeping the near darkness of her shadows around her in the darkness of the night, making her almost invisible to a spectator..
Prrasha rolled her eyes with the human kitten's reaction. She couldn't stand the humans with their constant want to touch.

Cori looked back. Someone - he didn't know who, was watching them. His golden eyes squinted towards the darkness, eyeing one alley after another, but whom ever it was concealed themselves well. The fur on the back of his neck stood in warning, but Cori ignored it, following Anna hastily as to not let her wander off to far.
When the human girl approached them, Cori bristled and moved around Anna, eyeing the human cautiously. He wasn't opposed to scratching the child - children usually grabbed without thinking and without care. He wanted the kid gone if anything. They made him nervous.
"Here Anna," Cori motioned, pointing to a alley to the side of Big Ben, "This way. I don't much want to be cuddled by the human. She won't follow us here."

Anna blinked and looked at Cori. The girl had done nothing wrong. She turned to see the girl bend down and offer out piece of ham from her sandwich. "Here, Kitty!" She called again.
"Be gentle with it." The mother warned as Anna looked back. "It might bite."
"Okay, Mommy." The girl held still as Anna approached. Sniffing the young girl's meat caused her stomach to flop and her mind to race. Calories, fat cotent...you already ate this week...give it to Cori... Anna brushed heself against the girls's hand, letting her pet the smooth fur on her back. "Pretty kitty, right Mommy?"
The mother smiled and nodded, "Yes, Rebecca, let her go back to her friend now."
Anna took the piece of meat in her mouth and purred, letting the girl rub her once more. "Bye, Miss Kitty!" The girl waved, taking her mother's hand and walking away.
Anna walked over to Cori and smiled. "Here...it's safe." She said holding out the piece of meat to him. "She was a sweetheart, but I'm not hungry. I had a late lunch."

Prrasha was pacing in the corner where she currently hid and watched the two. if Anna would only hurry up instead of flirting with a human kitten. Though Prrasha had to agree that the human food wasn't bad, actually a few bits were quite tasty morsels, but she felt it under her dignity to whore herself to a human for it.

Cori watched the human child cautiously, bristling slightly when she bent down to pet Anna. He was weird about human touch - adults were find, but kids were hard to predict. Nevertheless, as soon as the child came, she left, and Cori released out a held breath.
Shifting to move closer towards the alleyway, Cori sniffed the meat she handed him. He really wasn't sure he wanted it - he wasn't that hungry, but he didn't want to seem rude and turn it down. Gradually, Cori took a piece of the meat and popped it into his mouth, chewing carefully.
"Thanks..." he breathed, looking back at her. "Obviously I'm not a fan of human children...could you tell?" He joked, or tried to. He was still new having friendly conversations, or friends for that matter.

Annabella looked at him for a moment, then laughed. "Oh, no. Here I thought you couldn't wait until a little girl if your own scooped you up and carried you off."
She ha to keep him out of the alleys. Too many dark corners for Tony to pull him into. She smiled and pointed. "Oh, look!" She said, to draw his attention as a group of street dancers started to perform. She was looking for anything to draw his attention anywhere else.
Tony had disappeared. That wasn't good. Now she was getting visably nervous. "Oh, no." She muttered looking around. That's when the car next to them backfired. But it wasn't the only thing that fired.
And Tony never missed.
(The shot is only meant to cripple Cori.)

(Cool deal. Gun shot? I'm saying it is a gun shot.)
Coricopat had suspected someone was watching them, but he hadn't expected that. His eyes had been focused on the dancers - his mind completely obviously and clear. He had flinched visibly as the car backfired, but it wasn't until he felt something searing -something hot in his upper right shoulder that he knew something wasn't right.
The dark tom stumbled forward, colliding with the brick wall. As reflex, one of Cori's hands shot up to grip at the gaping wound in his shoulder, teeth clinched together. He blinked, trying to regain his posture - trying to come to his senses, and he sucked in a deep breath.
He had been shot. He had NEVER been shot before - this was new.
Glancing up at Anna from his place against the wall, he motioned to her to run - to go. "Go...go." He mumbled. The bullet could have easily been meant for her, and if so, she needed to leave.

(XD Its Tony's mystic ability.)
Anna turned and saw hin for a split second before he disappeared again. She swallowed and bent down beside him. "No!" She yanked out the hair tie in her hair and pressed it to his shoulder. No exit wound. It was meant to cripple not kill. She looked up at the crowd, looking for any sign of Tony.
For once, she hated Tony for being the best At his job. She tried to pick Coricopat up. "We need to move. Keep pressure in the wound."

Cori tried to push her away. The last thing he wanted was to seem vulnerable. He didn't want to seem weak. The fact of the matter was though that he didn't know how to deal with this. Being shot at, let alone shot wasn't something felines had to deal with on a regular basis. He had never been shot before, and just trying to assess the wound was a difficult task.
Nevertheless, Cori pressed the band against his shoulder. Blood continuously seeped through the wound, turning the white fur on his fingers red, and dripping down his chest steadily. It was numb though for the most part, though Cori didn't think that was a good sign.
"Who...who was that? Where...where did he go?" He grimaced when a brief wave of pain ran down his arm.

Tony was in the crowd of people, watching. His form was dominant as he locked eyes with Anna who was attempted to stem the bleeding and get him out of there. Her gaze was fearful as he made his way over to them, and furrowed his brows.
Coricopat...young adult, former jellicle, one twin sister, 3 brothers. Henchcat now...mystic..or at least says he is...
Tony had done his research. Coricopat and his siter, Tantomile were able to sense disturbences or changes in their surroundings. He had been letting his presence be known enough to were the tom should have been able to notice...but he didn't. He had no coue what was coming.
"Tony...." Anna warned. "Stay away."
"Relax. The queen in black is watching." He eyed Cori. "Couldn't sense me, could you."

Coricopat didn't answer. He didn't want to answer, nor did he feel the need to. He didn't know this tom, and now with a bullet through his shoulder, he didn't much want to.
Hissing as he stood, leaning against the brick wall for support, Coricopat glared at the other tom, placing one foot slightly in front of Anna. He was an intellect - he wasn't a fighter by any means, but if this tom had any intents on hurting a queen, Cori would do his best to stop it, or at least give Anna time to run.
Really though, she should go. She didn't need to stay here when there was a threat. Coricopat blinked and looked over at her, motioning her with a nod of his head. "You should leave Anna, you should go."

[Sorry for the wait. Finally finished the project - kept the deadline, but still had two more days in standby for troubleshooting.]
Prrasha barely suppressed a hiss of rage when she saw the drama unfold before her. Her eyes pressed together that only slits remained she gathered the shadows around her like a dark cloud that then invaded the area where the other three Jellicles were. The shadows seeped into the area like an oppressing darkness. Evey light source was still there but only emitting a pale sickly luminance that did nothing to really penetrate the shadows which started to lay themselves like a sick mist on every object and person, hiding them.
Prrasha's voice filled the darkness. It seemed to come from everywhere and it clearly showed she was not amused.
"You shouldn't have done that, hunter. This is not your territory and you have no permission of hunting here. If this is your challenge for this territory, be prepared to pay the price..."
