The Clipping of Wings(Kajeela)

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

A Cizerack female was being taken in, fighting the whole way.

"What jissss the meanjing of thjisss?!"

She yelled, the female looked quite different from the one most used to know in the hunter circles as Motssumi. Her short black hair was now a smokey grey that was past her waist and quite mussed up in her fighting being caught. The one that held her bore many fresh claw gouges from her, she had taken awhile to take down. Still Motssumi seemed unafraid of the clutches of the KAR for the moment, to mad to care.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

Kajeela watched from behind a two-way mirror as Motssumi was deposited into the "waiting" room in typical Kei Ai' Reei fashion.
KAR Enforcers were not known for their delicate methods, and these were some of Kajeela's toughest.

She stood, thoughtfully tapping a manicured claw against her chin as she observed the bounty hunter's arrival.

"Sssshe sssstjill hasss herrr fjirrrre" the Director observed to the captain who stood along side her. Her subordinate nodded - it was as they had expected.

Tarruurri turned and spared a rare smile.

"Good" Kajeela remarked before turning to enter into the holding room, "Sssshe jis jussssst what we need"

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

Motssumi was tossed in to prevent further injury, the door slammed shut before she could blink. It didn't matter really, Mot knew better than to struggle to get out of a closed room. Instead her cold blue eyes scanned the room, taking everything in and looking for exits. Her eyes fell over the mirror, she knew at once it was a two-way one, her time in a small jail for a night had taught her that much. She leaned against the wall across from it and waited with her eyes closed and ears listening for any sound, she knew whoever wanted her was behind it, was only a matter of waiting for them to speak or better yet appear.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

Motssumi did not wait long.

Kajeela stepped into the sterile white holding room of the KAR - her impeccable uniform as starched and rigid as the woman herself.

Tarruurri was a small build for a Cizerack, petite even. But that did not diminish her threatening presence by any means. If anything, the more understated she was, the more fear she seemed to envoke. While physically dangerous, she was far more lethal in her ability to dismantle and invade an individual's mental defenses. Her shrewd and intense intellect would twist and prod and cajole and dominate until they would gratefully give up any secrets or information that what she wanted.

She was the essence of the Kei Ai' Reei.

And she wanted Motssumi to join her ranks.

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

Motssumi opened one eye upon hearing movement, she knew to fear the KAR but she wouldn't show it easily. She looked over the smaller female, in a natural state, she would have nothing to fear of her but this woman held a lot of power here. Motssumi opened the other eye, not moving any way else, she knew better, just staring at Kajeela, waiting for her to speak.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

"Motssssssumji.." Kajeela began, her tone conversational, as if the bounty hunter had arrived in time for tea and biscuits, [/i]".....Mjy name jis Kajeela Tarrrrrrruurrrrrrji."[/i]

Rosskaarru's eyes widened a little in recognition that she spoke with the Director of the Pride's notorious Intelligence Network.

A silky smile played on Kajeela's lips as she continued.

"jI have an offerrr jyou wjill fjind harrrd to rrrefussse..."

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

Motssumi wasn't sure what to think, an offer from the KAR could be anything but it was never good. Her mind wandered, trying to think of what she might have accidentally done to the KAR but her thoughts brought nothing. Her face remained set though in an emotionless expression.

"An offerrrrrrr?"

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

"Hm"

She nodded and sat casually on the edge of the table.

"Ljife forrr jyou jis....sssshall we sssajy..not what jyou had planned. jYourrr ljine of ..errrr...worrrk.. (she smiled at the euphamism)[/i]....jisss a wassste of jyourrr talent"[/i]

Motssumi said nothing, not wanting to incriminate herself in any way whatever. No matter what one said to the KAR, there was always something they could deliberately twist the wrong way, no matter how innocent.

"jIt jis tjime forrr jyou to thjink of ssserrrvjing the Prrrjide, and not jyourrr own jinterrresssts...."

The Director's eyes were uncannily bright. And sharp. And their intensity bore directly to Motssumi.

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

Motssumi stared right back, her gaze not faltering one bit.

"How sssssso?"

She asks, her tone even, masking the nervousness she felt, what did this one have planned? It didn't sound at all good to her as her tail swished about the only sign of her distress.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

"Whjy - jyou come worrrk forrr me"

Kajeela said it as if it was the most obvious and wonderful opportunity to be had.

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

Motssumi was confused with that answer as it was the last she would have expected, what good was a huntress to an intelligence organiztion?

"Whjy me?"

Here she was expecting she had done something to anger the Pride and then this comes up. She couldn't see what she was wanted for, the KAR had its own means of hunting down their prey and they were quite good at it.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

"The Keji Aji' Rrreeji arrre alwaysss lookjing forrr thossse who can furrrtherrr the glorrrjy of the Prjide.

jYourrr backgrrround prrrovesss jyou arrrre rrrresssourrrceful and rrruthlesss.

Wjith the rrrjight trrrajinjing, jyou would prrrove verrrjy valuable. Verrrjy valuable."

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

Training? She didn't like the sound of that, with the KAR that could be anything but training. Even so she knew she had no choice in the matter she knew so she remained quiet, swallowing her pride and waiting to see what Kajeela had to say next.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

Kajeela waited, but Motssumi seemed inclined to let the Director continue to lead the "discussion."

"jYou rrrealjissse jyou mussst agrrrreee wjilljingly and commjit honessstljy..."

(Her eyes hardened to emphasise her point)

"Anjy dupljicjitjy on yourrr parrrt wjill have djirrre consssssequencesssss."

She relented, and smiled a little.

"Would jyou ljike ssssome tjime to decjide?"

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

Motssumi shivered on the inside but nothing showed on the outside, by all accounts, she looked very calm.

"No, jI don't need anjy tjime to decjide, jI accept."

Her mind was wandering by now, wondering what she was gonna do about Darr, he was back at the hotel and wondering what was in store for her.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

A gratified smile spread across the Director's lips, and it chilled Motssumi a little.

It was the reply Kajeela had wanted, had expected.

"Good - jyou majy gatherrr what thjingsss you majy need and be herrrre, at the KAR offjice main level, at 8.am tomorrrrrrow.

Yjourrrr trrrrajinjing wjill begjin then."

[Motssumi Rosskaarru]

"jIt ssshall be done."

She said, trying to keep her tone even and calm though she was really pondering the training again. Well at least I can get Darr.... She thought absently while watching Kajeela for the chance to leave, she was in a closed up room after all.

[Kajeela Tarruurri]

Behind the Director, the door opened and the Enforcers that had escorted Mot here, had arrived to return her home.

"jYou majy go" Kajeela explained, "But rrrememberrr, Motssssssumji - nothjing jin jyourrrr ljife wjill everrrr be the sssame, now."
