Daniel would sigh, coming home after a hard day at work, thinking to himself on the disappearance of Vanessa, growing more annoyed by the second as he went to his office, only to pause when he heard the front door, thinking it might be Amanda, he steps into his office, then turns around and exits it again, walking out and seeing who it was, only to blink when he saw Rosarisi standing there in the foyer of his home. "Rosa..?" he asks quietly.

"Hi Dad" she said with a quiet wave. "I wanted to come spend the night here, if that's okay?" she asks.

Daniel felt his heart jump into his throat some, before gulping and nodding yes. "It's quite fine hun, always fine, in fact, I'd like it if you did spend the night tonight." he said, clearly not showing his deeper desires for his daughter, but after, he turned and walked into his office, closing the door behind himself as he sighed. "Ok... she's here... she's in my house... Amanda will be home soon, and I'm..." he shudders. "...Keep it cool Daniel, she's still your baby girl..." he reminds himself.

He then checks his phone after hearing it go off, only to blink as he felt even more nervous... Amanda wasn't coming home due to an emergency at the hospital involving Taylor. "Why is she handling that when... y'know? Nevermind." he says, turning before looking out the door to see where Rosa was, giving a little smile as he sees her in the living room now.

"Ok... just act cool, no funny business, ok?" he says to himself, before stepping out and approaching her. "Heeey hun, uh, so have you eaten already or?"

Rosa shook her head no. "Not yet Dad, but I was hoping you could fix me that special milk you used to feed me when I was pregnant"

Daniel tensed hard and blushed, oh he had a secret in that drink... one linked right to him.

"Something wrong Dad?" she asks.

Daniel shakes his head no. "I'll... go see if I can make that, how're the babies anyway?" he asks, heading to the kitchen.

"Rowdy, very active, and very very very mean..." she pouts. "Not used to carrying more than two..."

"How many do you have in there?" he asks, trying to fake up the drink she had asked for.

"Uhm... Nine?" she said with a nervous smile.

Daniel would have been surprised, but he knew her species were like ferals, always numerous in offspring, but before she could whine any further, he walks into the living room with the glass balanced expertly on his nose, offering it out to her, the red concoction on full display, just lacking the milky substance it seemed.

Rosa took the drink, before sipping a little at it, only to hmm in confusion.

"Something wrong sweetie?" he asks.

"You got the majority of it right, but it... doesn't... taste right, not like your usual." she remarks, still sipping on it.

"Ahh yeah, I... I forgot to buy milk at the store" he lied, that wasn't milk.

Rosa smiled, then sipped down the rest of it at a slow pace, before putting the glass aside after she was done, despite that missing ingredient, she felt much better now. "Thank you Dad, is it ok if I sleep on the couch?" she asks.

Daniel hated to admit, he didn't have rooms for her to stay in, so, he took a deep breath. "No. Sleep with me." he says, oh that wording...

Rosa flinched, not expecting that, but she did nod happily.

Daniel smiles, then leans in and kisses her cheek. "My good girl." he says in praise, before wandering off to wash the glass of his concoction. After, he fixed her something to eat, some leftover spaghetti before bringing it to her, giving her a very large portion as he knew the kits needed it too.

Rosa took the plate and practically scarfed down the food in a matter of a minute, then hiccuped loudly as she handed the plate back to him.

"Didja even chew it?" he jokes, then walks to the kitchen with a bright smile on his muzzle.

After a bit, Daniel would come back out into the living room, giving a sweet smile to her before he bumped his head against her side. "Bedtime. We both need sleep if we're to be at work at seven." he reminded her, though in secret he had a wish... one he didn't wanna pursue.

Rosa giggled. "Daaad, it's only nine."

"Uh huh, and you... need... sleep!" he grins, hoisting her up onto his back, carrying her like the old days to his room upstairs, laughing happily all the way.

Rosa was giggling as well, smiling before eeping as he threw her gently onto the bed, before giving a squirm as he stood over her. "You've never changed, I love that." she says happily.

Daniel nods, then leans in as he kisses her cheek again. "Of course, I'm your old man after all." he winks.

Rosa smiles, then looks away. "...is it ok if I sleep naked?" she asks.

Daniel tensed, oh he wanted so desperately to say no, but his mouth said it for him. "Oh of course hunnibunch, hell, I wouldn't deny you that."

Rosa smiles wide, then gently moves him aside, before beginning to strip without hesitation in front of him.

Daniel couldn't help but watch, seeing her top come off first, then her bottoms, his tails dancing about behind himself as he felt giddy, like old times, like this wasn't weird at all... or illegal. Giving in a little, he leans in, kissing her nose once, before licking her between the eyes.

Rosa giggled at the kiss and lick, before grinning at him. "Daddy, I don't need a bath!" she says, gently pawing at him.

Daniel snickered, then nipped her cheek. "I know you don't, but doesn't stop me from giving one anyway!" he grrrs, then licks her face repeatedly, being all manner of playful.

Rosa squealed out and laughed, pleading for mercy as she struggled to escape, rolling onto her hands and knees before trying to crawl to the head of the bed.

Daniel didn't let her get far though, pinning her with a paw before kissing her ear. "Oh no no, you're not escaping." he purrs, his voice hushed and different now.

Rosa tensed, her face stained silver as she blushed.

Daniel smiles, then licks her between the eyes again from above. "Up." he commands.

Rosa gulps. "I... can't... we can't do that..." she says hesitantly.

Daniel chuckles, then nuzzles her neck. "Please hun?" he begs.

"O... Ok..." she says softly, then scoots up and presents for him. "Please be gentle daddy?"

Daniel smiles brightly, then clamps his jaws on her neck from behind, hoisting her up onto her hands and knees proper as he hooked hard into place on her, hunching at her spade a few times as his tip peeked from his sheath.

"Nnh!" whined Rosa, blushing more as she was manhandled. "Daddy..." she whispers. "Please..."

Daniel hunches a few more times, before pushing into his daughter, burying his shaft into her as he ruts hard to the hilt, grunting through his nose as he began immediately to thrust into her.

Rosa yips, but then goes quiet, eyes closed as steam exits her muzzle from his hot rod inside of her, the fennec panting hard as she feels him thrusting off into her like no tomorrow, fists gripping the sheets as they made their forbidden love yet again.

Daniel would keep humping off into his little girl, his good girl, holding her neck possessively as he made her stay put, refusing to lose his groove as he mated, he would show her the same love as Amanda, but he knew she deserved a different kind of love from him, one more domineering and forceful... he learned her quirks during her pregnancy with Ruby, so he was happy to oblige with her kinks and cues.

Soon enough, the tales would buck hard into his fennec, eyes squeezing shut as he began to jackhammer.

"Ah shh--" cried Rosa, whining as she felt him going for the gold.

Daniel wouldn't have to wait long, his knot swelling up and locking them in place before he fired off his load inside of her, steam exiting his nose as he bit harder on her neck, silver drips appearing from his muzzle around his teeth.

After depositing more than enough cum in his fennec, he licked the wound on her neck scruff, apologizing for that before twisting around, standing proudly ass to ass with her as he remained stuck.

"What... was that?" she asked, looking back at him.

"You know what that was." he said happily, staring into her eyes. "Don't lie, you wanted it too."

Rosa drooped her ears, feeling called out there, before she sighed hard. "And now we wait..." she mumbles.

"At least you and me will sleep good tonight." he says, sighing happily before draping his tails protectively over her. "Lay down, and sleep, I'll be sure to guard you like always."

"Thank you Daddy" she smiles, then does as he orders, guiding him down with her before snuggling up as she drifts off to sleep as if she was back home all over again with her pregnancy with Ruby.

Daniel would soon follow, a smile painted on his muzzle as he felt no shame, no guilt, no worry... just like old times.

-

Rosa woke up the next morning, very much sore, and very much singed inside after what her father did to her, the fennec giving a slight stretch as she squirmed, unsure if they were still stuck or not, though she looked down and saw Daniel wasn't there, instead, a furred blanket covering her. "Myu..?" she questions, ear flicking a few times, before sitting up and glancing around, unsure where he went.

She checked her time display and jaw dropped, oh no... she was late, very late in fact! A short scream echoing out from the room as she bolted from the bedroom, across the hall and into the bathroom, immediately throwing on the shower without adjusting the water as she got right in, yelping as she was hit with ice cold water on top of her panic.

Once she was done with that grueling and cruel shower, she stepped out, dropping to all fours for a second, shaking herself out before standing back up, smiling as she got a towel and walked out to go get dressed.

"I told you never to do that again." said Amanda, surprising her at the door of the bathroom.

"Erk?" she flinches, then steps back and plants herself against the wall. "Uh, hi Mom, what'dya mean?" she asks, unsure what she was mad about.

"You know what." she points at the bathroom. "I said never shake out like that again. Now get back in there and clean it up." she demands, herding the fennec back in and standing in the door to make sure she does as she's told.

Rosa whined. "Mooom, I have to go to work, I can't do this!" she protested.

"Don't care. You're in MY house." she says through her teeth, then she spots the mark on the back of her neck, which earned a sly smirk from her for a second, then she looked away.

Rosa grumbles, then goes to cleaning up her mess, ears back and down as she didn't like being treated like this, but once she was done, she placed the wet towels in the hamper. "Can I go get ready now?" she asks in an annoyed tone.

"Yes you can" she steps aside, smiling as she walks by, before she pads into the bedroom after her, the alolan tales coming up behind her before giving a cold lick to the spot. "And what do we have here?" she teases.

Rosa eeped, then pouted. "I..." she whines. "...Dad kinda lost his control." she admits.

"Uh huh..." said Amanda with a grin, then gently kissed her cheek from behind. "Just keep that quiet and we'll be alright, ok?" she says softly.

"You know I wouldn't say anything about that." she pouts.

"Oh I know, but reminders." she turns to leave. "Also, you're leaking." she says on her way out.

Rosa flinches and blushes bright silver as she looks down to see cum running down her leg, giving a hard and angry sigh before cleaning it up, quickly getting dressed before heading to work, hoping she wasn't about to be chastised for her tardiness.

As soon as she walks in the door, she flinches, being grabbed by Daniel and pushed against the wall. "Ack!" she squeaks, then blinks at the tales.

"You. Are. Late." he says in an unamused tone. "Tod came by, looking for you, and didn't find you, and I had to lie to keep you out of the fire."

"Oh come on..." she whines quietly. "I know I'm two hours late, I know I fucked up, but please don't be m-"

"I am not your secretary, young lady." snips Daniel at her. "We may be differing ranks in Ravenwood, but I am still your father, do not make me do that again." he bops her between the eyes with a paw.

A soft chuckle comes from the other employees at this.

Rosa pouts, then looks down in shame. "Sorry." she says, then gathers herself before heading into her office.

Fifteen minutes of work would pass, and Daniel would enter the office, placing a glass on her desk. "Here." he says softly, a complete opposite to his stern and scalding mannerisms earlier.

"What's this?" she asks, picking up the cup carefully.

"Sip it and find out." he says with a kind smile.

Rosa narrows her eyes, eyeing him as she brought it to her lips, before she tasted the drink, her ears perking high as she didn't waste time, drinking the whole mixture down.

Daniel watched, the tales wagging idly as he waited, then once she was done, he would give her a cheek smooch. "Good girl." he says into her ear, then turns to walk out.

Rosa smiled at that, then licked her chops a couple times, the lingering mixture of tastes on her tongue, as well as the burn of the mysterious ingredient in it, she never knew how he did it with milk, cranberry juice, hot sauce and cinnamon, but she wasn't complaining. She felt thousands of times better after downing it too, which made her curious how to make it at home...

"Everything alright?" asked Jennifer as she saw Daniel wandering by.

"Mhm, just had to feed the baby" he snickered.

"Baby?" questioned Jennifer.

"Uh, yeah, didn't know Rosa was my kit?" he asked at the Archangel.

Jennifer hummed. "Explains how you got away without a reprimand for that scalding earlier." she says. "So, what was the drink?" she asked.

"Just a special mix, nothing too fancy, milk, cranberry juice, hot sauce and cinnamon." he says. "Kinda gross, but... she has always liked it when she's well... you know."

"Oh don't need to say it, she can barely fit in her uniform anymore." said Jennifer. "Also... think these look nice?" she asks, pointing at the Halloween streamers she hung up.

"Never understood what you Earthlings do this time of year, what is it about these weird decorum?" he asks.

"Oh you don't know about Halloween?" she asks curiously.

"Not... really..?" he gives a meek smile.

"Naberus, Nightmare Night, Halloween, All Hallows, en cetra, a time of change for the seasons, and for some, to honor the spirit world and praise those that're no longer with us." she explains. "Dependent on the tradition, it can be simple, or extravagant, and around here, we're... various. Some celebrate it like it's a national holiday, others don't even bother."

"And some don't even know where to begin" says Daniel with a grumble.

"It's alright big guy, you'll get the hang of it eventually." she pats him gently on the head. "Also... your son has been arrested, apparently he did something to his partner and is locked up."

"Oh... wait, which son?" he asks.

"Abney"

"Wait what?" he flinches.

"Yeah. Don't worry, he's... fine." she says, leaving critical details out to not panic him.

Daniel eye twitches. "I'm gonna burn that station to the ground... that's not okay, he probably got locked up on some false charge and is being held on securities." he says in disbelief.

"Easy there firefox..." says Bryce, overhearing that threat. "EOC is our ally, not a target."

"Sorry Sarge" he says with a meek smile to the red fox.

"Don't let it happen again detective." he smiles, then heads out to go answer a call for a diplomat ride.

Daniel sighs through his nose, white steam wafting out through his nostrils before he asks. "So can I go see him?" he asks.

"Ask your supervisor, not me." she says, then points at Rosa's picture. "Also..." she kneels down and pets him a few times. "That wasn't milk." she says quietly to him, making sure no one else heard, before turning and walking off.

Daniel tenses, then grunts and turns back to go talk to Rosa, blinking as he saw her getting ready to leave for somewhere. "Uhm... where you off to?" he asks.

"Briarthorn. I've been summoned." said Rosa.

"Oh lovely. Erm. Quick question before you do go get yelled at by those lot. Can I go see Abney?" he asks, hopeful.

Rosa looked puzzled. "I mean... as long as you're careful, he's not in the right headspace right now." she says. "Anything else you need Detective?" she asks.

"I... no, not really." he says. "Have a safe trip hun."

"You too." she smiles, then kisses his nose on the way out.

Daniel sighed after she left, before asking himself. "Am I a good father?" he stares up at the picture of Ruby on the wall, before finally relenting and leaving as well to go see his son.

-

It would become apparent that the EOC was in over their heads, Abney was contained, for now, but after an incident involving every single feral in the station, AND him escaping, Daniel was getting very tired of this nightmare, and not to make matters worse, both Romano AND Abney both had been taken to Briarthorn Tower, but by the time he pushed himself through security and went to see them, they were back to normal after some nonsensical cure for whatever the Hells it was that had gotten into them. And of course, once the two were released, they hugged their father tight. "I missed you both." he admitted, then gave them both a smooch on the cheek before bonking them both with a paw. "Next time, stay out of trouble!"

Both gave apologetic looks, lowering their heads in shame.

"Now let's get back to business at hand, you two joining our search efforts tonight?" asked Daniel.

"We are sir" said both Abney and Romano.

"Good, we begin combing Silver Heights tonight, and hopefully will put the now double missing person's case to rest." he smiles, then turns and walks out

Once the brothers were alone with each other, Romano turns to Abney. "Nice going you idiot sandwich, ya got us both yelled at." he snorts, then storms out.

Abney mumbles something under his breath and heads out.

-

Xavier was sticking close to Victoria, not only had he heard there was a second missing person, he was becoming paranoid, sleepless even, and for a few nights, he'd spent over at Victoria's, sleeping quietly in the corner of the room out of the way, but still very much vigilant, listening, occasionally watching, switching up his patterns when he got too predictable, he had been offered a few times to share a bed with Victoria, but he said no due to her mother looming just out of sight.

It wasn't until Xavier woke up from his slumber, having slid too far into sleep, that he realized a problem, he flinched when he saw Victoria wasn't present, then quickly began searching the house for her, only to find no sign of her... oh no.

He gulped, then turned to walk back to her room, only to soon spot it: a note on her pillow. Concerned, he took the note and read it.

"I found a lead on where she could be, and went to investigate on my own, see ya soon, I hope this doesn't turn out to be a joke!" signed Victoria.

Xavier felt his blood run cold, not only due to the realization he was now in the wrong with defending his charge and VIP, but because of who just walked into the room and was standing behind him.

Angelica would step closer once she saw Xavier reading something, looking over his shoulder casually as she also read the letter, her demeanor crossing a lot of lines as she slams her paw down into the middle of Xavier's back, pushing him down firmly to the floor before freezing his feet in place. "You. Failed." she said in a very mean and displeased fashion, moving around and standing in full view of his sight. "Give me a reason not to hurt you right now, you said you wouldn't let her go, never be alone, never to do this." she glances at the letter, then him. "Got thirty seconds to give me a reason why you should not get mauled."

Xavier winced, then struggled against the ice binds. "Nnh!" he growls, then glares at Angelica. "Because I needed rest, and I couldn't wake up to stop her, and I apologize for that" he said, then stared at her. "You want someone to blame? Blame yourself."

Angelica would pull her muzzle back in a toothy snarl, then leaned in and got right up in the coyfox's face. "Myself? I didn't ask for you to come into her life and cause this in the first place."

"I didn't cause this!" countered Xavier. "You think I would hurt her?!"

"I know you would, I know for a fact you've been a nuisance ever since you met her, and have been an-" she would suddenly stop, her green eyes going wide as she got a rude awakening. Angelica suddenly dropping before she could continue her assault.

Xavier would snatch his paws free, ice breaking as his eyes glowed bright blue-purple, tears falling from his eyes as he stared down at the unconscious ninetales. "...I'm sorry." was all he said before running out of the house from the front door and began tracking Victoria's scent like she was a prey animal.

-

Victoria was making her way to the location she was told to go, not thinking, not in any right line of mind, as it was out in the woods where Paine had been last time she encountered him, but even further past that point, gulping hard as she started to get nervous, only to flinch hard when she saw someone, but it wasn't the one she was here to see... it was Xavier!

"Ahh there you are." he said, sliding off of the stump before approaching Victoria. "Sorry, you're not going this alone"

"I... h-how in the world did you figure out where I was going?" she asked in astonishment, she had been so careful, so cautious, yet he had managed to sniff her out so easily.

Xavier smiled, then kissed her on the nose. "I'm not a normal yote dear, I know how to track you" he snickers, before a loud CLACK was heard from the tree line, the coyfox tensing hard as he narrowly avoided a dart, only to realize it hit Victoria. "Shit! Vic!" he yells, before being nailed by a dart of his own.

Once the two were downed, Alexander stepped out of the tree line, staring at Xavier, seeing the poor boy's eyes still open somewhat. "Guess you lose." he said simply, unaware of just how extensive that Ravenwood had gone to ensure their officers were monitored and tracked, he knew Xavier was a cadet, but the very nuance of their augments and edits was beyond his understanding.

[IDENTITY: UNKNOWN]
[SPECIES: WOLF]
[GENDER: MALE]
[AGE: MID 30S]

As the wolf stepped over Xavier, he froze, seeing a pair of red eyes peering out of the shadows at the three of them.

"Ahh, I see I wasn't the only one out here hunting." said the voice of this individual, the Bifrost Vulpix stepping out into the open, a low chuckle coming from him. "You make my job way too easy, wolfie boy"

"Who're you?" asked Alexander.

"Ohh, me?" he grins, then looks at Xavier, then back at him. "I'm Mister Paine. A true pleasure to meet you, monster."

Alexander recoiled hard in surprise, he knew that one way too well from the news reports, but never expected to encounter another serial killer out in the wilds, the wolf raising his hands in a show of 'don't do anything stupid'.

Paine chuckled some, then stepped closer, approaching Victoria first, rolling her over, checking her over, before giving a quiet shrug as he seemed bored of what he saw with her, before he approached Xavier. "This one got away... due to that one." he said with an angry glare toward Victoria, before looking at Alexander. "Sooo, how about this... you take that one, and I take this one, hmm?"

Alexander gulped, some part of him wanted to say no, but could he truly stand up to Paine? Eventually, he nodded shakily. "O-Of course, a fair splitting of the bounty" he shakily said, before picking up Victoria carefully. "What... are you planning on doing with this one?" he asked, just out of morbid curiosity toward Paine's intentions.

Paine chuckled lowly. "Just going to play a little with this one, resolve some unfinished business with him, maybe make him cry, scream, and beg for mercy, then slowly butcher him like cattle. I hear coyote meat is kind of gamey, but I'm sure with a slow cooking it'll be juuust fine... especially with tenderizing."

Alexander bit his lip, he didn't like that, but what could he do? "I... see..." he said shakily, before bowing out. "Enjoy... sorry little guy."

Paine would smile once Alexander was gone, before his expression slowly melted into anger, those glowing red eyes peering at the coyfox, then he leaned in close and poked at him a couple times to see if he was awake or not. "Hmmm... no fun tormenting you when asleep... guess I'm wai-" he froze, ear perking hard. "Oh, trouble." he sighs hard. "Fuck..." he begins rifling through his collar for a moment, then grabbed Xavier's ID, then slinked back into the shadows.

Soon enough, Abney, Tod, Rene and Niche would emerge from the tree line, scanning the area as they were on the hunt for someone, establishing a perimeter around him as Niche began to check him over and check for injuries.

Paine would see Niche connect a cable from the back of his helmet to the back of Xavier's head, keeping deathly quiet, eyes narrowed at him out of sight.

"We got pawprints sir" said Abney, pointing at the three pawprints that were on the ground.

Tod wandered over, checking them against a database. "One is Victoria Shade, one is Xavier's, and one is..." he went quiet and growled.

"Sir?" questioned Abney

"We have a problem. I think Paine just took Victoria."

"What?!" gasped Rene and Abney at the same time.

Paine narrowed his eyes angrily at the officers, he desperately wanted to disprove that, but he knew what he was, so for now, he took the unwanted infamy for himself, slinking further away and moving away from the trouble, he glanced at the ID as he walked, far enough away to speak aloud from prying ears. "Well well well, guess you're a naughty little girl, aren't you Xavier?" he grins, seeing the address, the ID code, everything to effectively track him wherever he went.

-

Three hours after that encounter, Alexander returned to his home, taking Victoria down into the workshop as well, placing her in a holding cage next to her sister, attaching a void resonance collar to her neck so she couldn't use the special abilities her people had, unaware of what a certain green eyed Vulpix had taught her and had done to her. Once she was secure and all locked up, he turned toward his most pensive subject... Vycki.

"Well, look who's back." said the fox in an annoyed tone, clear as Halloween night, her eyes fixated hard on the wolf. "You may have struck fear into those two, BUT GOOD LUCK WITH ME!" she snarled.

Alexander growled. "You have a lot of nerve, I'll give you that..." he said, approaching the young vixen before backhanding her once on the left cheek, then the right. "I'll eventually break you, they always break, they always learn what their purpose is, and you are no different!"

Vycki yelped out, then chuckled as she smiled through her bleeding teeth. "Oh you don't know me, bitch-dog." she said with a haggard sigh. "I've seen monsters like you before, I've lost my parents to your kind, and when I get free of these restraints? I'm going to kill you."

"Bold words, little fox." Alexander replied. "You're never escaping."

"GOOD, MEANS I CAN CONTINUE BEING A THORN IN YOUR SIDE!" she yells, only to get struck again.

Vanessa was somewhat watching this, horrified, all the attention had gone from her, to now Vycki, all because that one couldn't stop antagonizing the wolf, she wondered if this was by design, or by some twisted cruel fate for the now three of them, and each time that Vycki yelped out, and was struck, she winced, hiding her head away behind her paws, until she heard the insults and slander continue.

Alexander would snarl, then would take out a needle, holding the instrument up in full view of her in a menacing manner. "Keep it up and I will inject this into you, and then you won't have a choice in the matter to shut the fuck up"

"Awww, how cute, you think I'm scared of some garbage needle?" sneered Vycki.

"Don't!" yelled Vanessa finally. "Please, please, don't hurt her!"

Vycki grins wide. "Do it, I fucking dare you, bitch-dog"

Alexander would eye twitch, looking back at Vanessa. "She's being quite the nuisance, so she's going to be the first in a very long time, she deserves every bit of hell she's about to experience."

"No!" yells Vanessa, loud enough to wake her sister.

Vycki closes her eyes tight, holding her breath as the wolf poked her in the foreleg with the needle, gritting her teeth as she felt the burn, like glass being pushed into her veins, but once the black translucent liquid reached her heart, and then her brain, she would feel a sense of euphoric distance come over her, her resistances beginning to fade, and her typical bad attitude also beginning to quiet and become more manageable.

Alexander sighed, then set the vial aside, just in view of Victoria and Vanessa, a simple label reading "Glass".

"What's going on?" asked Victoria, growling before trying to use her fire abilities, only to find it was locked, blinking, she looked at Alexander, then glared at him. "You..."

"Well hello again miss Victoria, a pleasure to see you're awake, and welcome to my little workshop, you're in a very safe and sound place, where no one else can bother us for this special project of mine."

"What the..." she flicked her ears, then snarled.

"Oh snarl all you wish little Firefox, you're not escaping this, your sister is next to you in her own confined kennel, and I assure you, neither of you will be seen again."

"Monster!" yelled Victoria

"That's what they all say, but eventually, they learn... and learn... and learn... until it is too late." he chuckles, then holds up a mirror. "Make yourself comfortable, because soon, we start with you..."

Vycki seethed slowly through her teeth, then managed to speak again. "You... think... a little glass... is gonna stop me?" she chuckles weakly.

Alexander angrily glared at her over his shoulder. "I swear, you're not going to win me over little fox, you're quite bullheaded"

"And you're quite bullshit" she retorts.

Alexander approaches Vycki, as she was still strapped to the experiment exam table, before striking her a third time, in total, she had been hit at least sixty times, but today this was her third, only to grab her and jam a second needle full of Glass into her neck, only to begin to torture her outright, beginning to electroshock her, as well as cutting into her skin to further hurt her, the smell of copper in the air as the young fox screamed out in agony.

Vanessa held her paws over her ears and shivered, whimpering and tearing up, she remembered all he did to her, and didn't want it to happen to her only ally in this situation, getting so scared she lost control of her bladder.

Victoria was mortified, watching this all happen, she knew that Sylveons were evil, but this was even beyond them, beyond all knowledge, beyond her... she couldn't believe it, yet somehow, she saw this fox, a normal fox, doing what she would have done in this moment... but felt terrible because she was unknowingly using someone else's pain to stop herself from being tortured herself.

Vycki would pant hard as the torture came to an end some hour later, the young fox panting and shuddering, but somehow, she remained defiant, even through the rainbow haze of shattered glass in her veins and body. "You... suck..." was all she managed to pant out before passing out for the time being.

Vanessa and Victoria both feared that they had just witnessed the young fox girl die in the most horrific way possible, both tearing up and trying to bite back their emotions, though couldn't help but cry as they had now a near fear... wolves.
