    The sweet, fragrant smells of roses mixed with lilacs emanate from her as she casts magic. The scent intensifies, bordering on intoxicating, when Life magic is cast. When Aurora casts Vulgar magic, the scent takes a nasty turn, to the putrid, nauseating odor of a rotting corpse. The stronger the magic, the more those around want to retch at the smell.

    A thunk and motion of the cars suspension in dictates the sudden adding of over a hundred pounds to the boot as the kitten turns back into the vet/assassin while the kitten Asclepius is once again he unconscious arrow now in the car laid out over the seats.

    Aurora can time it so no sleepers are obviously paying attention but without a little fate magic she can't guarantee one wont happen into view at the worst time.

    Ok.

    Now that she has human Asclepius, she can try a different tactic. And if this one doesn’t work, well, she had other options. There were always options, she just didn’t like them and didn’t have a good space to do them, away from Sleepers.

    Technically she did, for Asclepius. But she didn’t want to take the vet assassin there. Unless she took some of his senses from him…possibility. Thoughts for later.

    Now, this better work, please work.

    First, would the abyss play nice? Seems not as the pain came and she knew she was going to start looking like she went a round or two with Mike Tyson soon. Gritting her teeth against it, she pushes through the pain.

    Breath in…breath out.

    Then she casts the spell. She might not have a vial of adrenaline, but fuck, she was a Life Master, she can force his body to make that shit. And she does.

    Her luck holds and no sleepers happen by at the wrong time as her nimbus flares and the green glyph takes hold in the arrows pattern. With the potency of her magic sufficient to over come the drugs in his system Asclepius begins to wake with his own adrenaline coursing through his views to keep him alert for as long as Auroras spell holds.

    He slowly began the process of waking up, consciousness slowly regaining perspective. The first sounds from around him came to his ear. Am I dead? The hard surface he laid against in the hospital now felt somewhat cushioned. He remembered his last moments in his mind as fear took hold of him, the dart hitting him and the slow decent to the floor leaving Aurora to face the assassin alone. Aurora!

    His eyes shot open fear and worry painted upon his face and a deep gasp is made as he crashes awake with dread. He sat up quickly and took in the surroundings expecting the worst, sweat begining to drip from his forehead and his arms. Looking around the area, slowly realising and recognising the view of his car interior and more specifically the back seats. His eyes look to the front, and the fear lessened somewhat with Aurora sat there. “Oh my god, thank goodness, I feared for the worst. Are you okay? Tell me you are okay! Fuck sorry, he shot me and took me out with one dart.” His eyes darting around to get a baring on where they were before a chill slowly setting in as he noticed his current attire. “Oh god!” He repositioned himself and sat covering as best he could. Embarrassment on his face, he took deep breaths and began trying to calm himself down. His heart racing from the shock of the sudden wake up, and would need to be controlled with his breathing and an attempt at not panicking. “I am glad you got out safe, That was my biggest worry especially after what you said about your hesitation on calling for help.

    And then, after all her failed attempts, he finally woke up!

    “Oh, thank fuck!” she exclaims. “Do you know how many spells I tried to wake your ass up?!” she had to get that in, because it was a lot.

    Then realizing, “Me? Oh, yeah, I’m fine. A few swings from the abyss, but it’s ok.” Then a nod, “Yeah, you went down quick, but so did he.”

    Then she had to chuckle, “I should catch you up to speed on what happened, why you’re naked, your clothes are back there with you,” pointing to the back seat, “and where we are at.” She might be a little banged up, but right to business. Him being naked didn’t phase her at all, it was the human body, but she knew not everyone felt that way and turned her head to try and make him feel more comfortable.

    “So after you went down, I dropped him with a spell to put him to sleep. Then popped him with his own tranq gun, which I have here, in the box, in the front. Then I couldn’t get you to wake up, and, well, we couldn’t stay there, so I turned you both into kittens, stuck you and him, plus your clothes into the box and walked out. Paid the bill of course, less suspension that way. Hopped in your car and drove here, thinking there would be less Sleepers. Have his ID by the way, and his whole damn wallet.” Then she thought of something, “Oh yeah, he’s in the trunk by the way, still tranq’d, I didn’t wake him up, but I did upgrade him from a kitten to a human, and he’s naked too as his clothes are in the box up here.” She sounded nonchalant about the whole thing.

    “But as soon as he shot you I fired a spell at him, he wasn’t walking out of there.” No way, not against her.

    “Truth be told, I wasn’t sure where to take him. I didn’t know what the Arrow’s rules and laws were about bringing people to the cells, so I’ve been busting my ass trying to wake you up. Now the spell I used gave you a massive dump of adrenaline, so not sure how good that is going to be for you, I’d feel better have the drug that reverses the tranq, but this guy was such a sweetheart that he doesn’t carry them in the same box. Could try and speed up your metabolism and see if that counters both, but thankfully, you’re awake now at least.” So at least she had someone to bounce ideas off, tranqs were new to her.

    With combating drugs and hormones in his system the shock and confusion is expected but passes in favour of running on the sheer quantity of adrenaline, getting dressed in the bag of a car is hardly a dignified experience but it is certainly possible, any passers by are likely to come to a particular conclusion but there judgement is hardly the biggest problem the mages face.

    Aurora catch's the arrow up as he tries to preserve his dignity and able to take some solace in that well he did his job he had protected other another mage by taking the front line and so far lived to tell about it.

    Guilt hit him hard as he heard Aurora's relief. “No I don't, I am SO sorry.” His expression drowned in the Guilt he felt. Aurora Seemed almost surprised that she was asked if she was okay. You called me to help you, of course I am going to ensure you are okay. Good, I am glad, I don't think I could have forgave myself if you got injured or worse while I was asleep.

    He smiled as Aurora chuckled. “Yes please do, spare no detail. Oh excellent, I will get myself sorted while you explain then.” He began the process of getting dressed in the cramped backseat of his car starting of course with the underwear. “Yea good point, where are we.” He noticed he polite turn away for his dignity. “Sorry, the Embarrassment is irrational and instinctual, no doubt I have been laying here like this for a little while anyway.” He appreciated her efforts anyway.

    While he continued to dress himself, he listened to the ordeal that Aurora had to endure alone. When she spoke of shooting another dart in the vet, he laughed. “Good call at least that covers you if you needed to drop the spell. Oh wow you kept the dart gun, that would be a good bit of kit to keep around.” He gave a look of surprise as she detailed the transformation into a kitten as he pulled his trousers up. “Clever, no one would question as they never looked into the box, Also I am grateful you brought my clothes. If you need me to cover some of the bill, just say.” He gave a look of joy when she mentioned having his Id and wallet. “Nice, If he has an address on their we might be able to uncover some clues as to what he knows.” He struggled to hide his impressed look, even if she kept herself nonchalant. “Look at you, you are a one woman army.

    Ah yes, that would be another question he would need to ask Skye about at some point. “Yes, I need to ask about that at some point, I have not personally visited them myself yet. As much as I would love to bring him in, I question on whether we should, he did try to outright kill you.” He nodded to her mentioning the dump of Adrenaline as he put on his shirt. “Noted, It explains the Increased heart rate I feel. I shall keep an eye on it, and check myself over if I feel anything worrying.” He looked a little down, but nothing too much given the amount of good news given. “Well then we shall just need to act fast. First question then is do you want to speak to him still given how he has reacted to our presence?” Finally finishing with his shoes being put on.

    There was confusion at the apology, “What are you sorry for? There was nothing you could do about being shot with a tranquilizer dart.” She was just frustrated.

    “We’re in River Bend Park, seemed like it wouldn’t be a very busy park at this hour.” And if someone happened upon her and asked what she was doing, she had a few stories ready to go.

    “Uh, not really actually. You arrived here, in the box as a kitten and only a few minutes ago was placed in the back seat as a kitten and I dropped the spell. I had looked at the darts hoping for a reversal, and then with some more digging, realized with the size of a kitten, that shit could have killed you, so I dropped the spell and tried a different route. So maybe a minute or two tops.” She doesn’t say anything about the embarrassment, everyone was different.

    “I didn’t want to keep it in the exam room for someone else to find and raise suspicions.” Nodding, “Plus, being kittens made it easier to transport to unconscious men out. And the bill wasn’t expensive at all, so no worries. Funny thing, the receptionist didn’t even ask about where you were.” Weird, but maybe she just didn’t care. Chuckling, “I would hardly call myself a one women army, I just did what needed to be done to get myself and you out of there safely. And the vet who tried to murder me.” Can’t forget they had him too.

    “Also, I don’t know what will happen if I drop the spell, so we should also try and see about a reversal for the tranq. Or try speeding up your metabolism to get it out of your system faster. That much adrenaline cannot be good for an extended period of time.” She wasn’t a doctor, but it seemed like a bad thing. “I also don’t think he is going to be too keen on tell us where the reversal is, well, if I can wake him up anyways.” She hadn’t tried to wake him up yet.

    Then a sigh, “This is the part I’ve been struggling with. There was a time in my life where I would have already made sure he took his last breath.” But she wasn’t that person anymore, the last time she had killed, it had fucked with her. And she was still living with that guilt. “If we question him, I don’t know how safe it will be. We know he wants me dead for whatever reason, and we don’t even know if he can use magic. I can render him only so safe, cutting off some of his senses and whatnot. But we don’t know how dangerous he will be awake.” Looking to the Arrow, “We are also not in a location ideal for such questioning. So I will ask you, the Arrow, what would be recommended? We don’t how to gauge how dangerous he is, and I’m not putting you in danger.” It was just how she was, more worried about someone else then herself.

    With her spell and and a dart full of his own tranquiliser in him the vet is likely to be harder to wake then a comatose elephant if Asclepius was anything to go by not that it makes contemplating imprisonment, questioning and the possibility of murder any lighter of a subject.
