Jack displayed a small grin as she spoke. Then slid his hand a bit upwards before taking it off. He bend over her, untill he met face to face.
'Thats okay...' he whispered. 'You'll learn to like it eventualy... Don't worry.'
Then he backed off, still grinning his sadistic grin at her, before he headed for the door and stepped out of the room.
'Yo! Wake up, freak! Sleepy time is over!'
Charger heard Jack's voice in the distance as he slowly woke up again.
'You call me freak one more time...' he mumbled, still in pain.
'Then what?' Jack interupted. 'You going to stand up with that table attached to your back and squish me with it?'
He laughed at his own joke, then stood closer to Charger. With a quick move he closed his hand around his muzzle with a tight grip.
'Like I said before, tiger boy, you're not in the position to be making threats to me. So I suggest you stop it...'
Charger didn't listnen, his attention was focused on something else. A scent... a scent on Jack's hand. It smelled fermiliar...
He tried to track back, where had he smelled that scent before? He was possitive... it smelled somehow animal like.
The square! The alley! Thats where he picked it up! Now he remembered! But he still didn't know who's scent it was. But whoever it was had been so unlucky to end up in this place.
Charger slowly started to form a plan in his head, but it would involve some serious bluffing. He took a last strong sniff of the scent, then drew his muzzle back from Jack's hand.
'Sure...' he then spoke.
They stared at each other for a while, then Charger decided to act.
'Where is the eh...' he doubted for a second. Damnit, girl or guy, girl or guy! He focused on the scent in his nose, it tingled him somehow. 'The girl, that you caught along with me...'
He hoped desperately he got it right, because this was one hell of a bluf. He had no way of knowing she got captured, if she even got captured. He just had to hope he guessed right.
Jack grinned at him for a moment. A grin that went to a short laughter.
'Charger, Charger, Charger...' he spoke with a grin, looking at him.
'Well?' Charger asked nervously... would he buy it?
