"You lookin' for somethin', Kid?" Perth called between his bouts of laughter, his feline tail flisked slightly behind him as he stood up, a rather tall being, and he began stepping over the seats of the bleachers and towards the battling area, "You don't mind if I come over? I think I might like to have a word with your little friend." He asked Loki, his eyes looked down towards Neko.
Neko looked towards Perth and hissed as menacingly as a housecat could get, his ears back as he edged away. If Loki picked up on anything- it should be that the stranger looked exceedingly like Neko did in human form... oh yeah! Loki should probably notice that Neko didn't particularly like this person either.

Loki pulled his blade out, the man seemed extremely suspicious. "you know how to make him human again?" Loki heard the hissing and smiled, "i don't think he wants to talk with you...." he told the human form cat person walking up to him, "even though you guys could pass off as family." Loki stepped between the man and the calico cat and presented his blade. His facial expression and presentation of the weapon saying "no closer."

"I don't think he's had his 'traits' long enough to willingly change back... though I'd have to give you credit for putting him in a position where instinct forced him into this form... now he has to wait till he simply changes back..." Perth shrugged, "And about being passed as family... that's one of the things that intruiges me at this point in time." He commented, his ears twitching slightly. He tilted his head to the side with a thoughtful expression, 'he's certainly a small one, but then again that doesn't narrow down the possibilities... long tail... small paws... a fairly asian nose...' his eyes widened, "Whatever your name is! Weren't you a nekomata, previously?" he asked, his eyes danced with triumph.
Neko narrowed his eyes before nodding, his tail twitched irritably.
"AH! SOLSTICE! I should have known! How is your mother doing?" he asked with a smile, 'Ah yes... Solstice... quite a lovely being.... fond memories...'
Neko felt insulted at that moment, and felt compelled to mention the fact that his mother was dead... and then came the questions of how this person knew his mother... and of course Neko didn't notice his many similarities with the strange person.

"IN the name of Sol, the Emperor, and that annoying Vega lady who lives down the street and who's slanguage isn't even normal, even if this is a dream, I'm going to be in the asylum." Loki lamented out loud. then he frowned as he watched the strange cat man talk and examine the cat behind him. "so...we go from a battle to a family reunion do we?" Loki shook his head, but kept his eyes on the cat person. He began to move his blade around as if blocking moves from an invisible opponent. "What could induce him to change?"

"I dunno... I've never really tried before... maybe if we just kick him... really hard..." he thought out loud before he stood up straight now, and began preparing, obviously he was going to make this one hellofa kick, his eyes obviously happy with the concept of kicking the cat. No, he didn't make a habit of kicking small animals- but Neko was family, which made everything better.
Neko's eyes were wide and he stood there, staring at Perth's feet, edging towards Loki, kinda hoping that he'd somehow get picked up and put faaaaar away from the ground where he'd be in kicking range.
So what? Perth is an asshole, we all know that already, and it's about time you learned.

"Kick him? are you mad?! before we go down that desperate road, we should search for a less painful plan." Loki picked up the Neko-Cat and placed him on his shoulder. "I'm sorry, but i can't allow anything like to come to sentient being, we didn't even do that to Servaeri prisoners, but they sure did it to humans." Loki placed his blade in its sheath and completed an about face before walking marcado style out of the room. "lets find someone who can help you Neko, you know anyone who would have that ability?"

"What if I honestly told you that this was the only way?" Perth persisted with an honest smile and he patted the little Neko kitty on the head, "so put him on the floor so I can kick him... I'll bet I could get him over fifty yards." He said with a sinister smile.
Neko flinched at the thought of being kicked so hard... and who was this guy again? He seemed to know his mother, but that didn't mean much... his mother, Solstice 'knew' alot of guys. Neko rolled his eyes, the kittyboy lived a rather odd childhood... and he'd never heard of this guy before, nor had he seen this guy before. So who the hell was he? He shook his head, he was violent, if anything.

"Well, I'll honeslty tell you, if thats your case for a forced shift...i'll spend the time on a natural one." Loki then sat down on the ground and opened the hilt of his blade, and began to tinker with the alignment of various parts. He tottaly ignored the annoying cat man as his fingers rapidly and delicatly manipulated the machinery and electronics, but relied on neko, whom he was sure was always watching the annoyg cat guy, to react and tell him that cat man was getting ready to do something. "almost got it" loki wispered to himself, then smiled.

Neko mewled, basically amounting to a "Got what?" but of course, his words weren't exactly understandable and his ears twitched slightly as he subconciously flexed his claws. As he sat there, he kept an eye on Perth silently.
Perth looked rather bored, "Well... you're a lively crowd..." he muttered sarcastically as he seated himself on the ground, his hand plunged into his pocket and he withdrew a lighter which he boredly began sparking, and he would have whistled too... if he knew how to whistle. But hey- nobody was perfect, so Perth's one flaw was he couldn't whistle. Why do I say one flaw? Because wouldn't you aggree he seemed pretty damned perfect? *sarcasm*

Loki smiled, "Done Neko." he said, and slammed the hilt of his blade closed, his hand print engaging the locking mechanism with in. Loki then stood, cringing slightly in reflex from Neko's claws inadvertently cutting into his flesh. Undaunted by the slight pain, he walked several paces away from odd guy with the lighter. I wonder, Loki thought to himself, if the reason why he suggested a kick was fear...if thats the case, than this should work equally well. Loki shrugged, then placed his free hand up to pet Neko, but stopped short remembering that it was, in fact, a human up there, not a pet. dropping his free hand to his side, he continued moving. Stopping at the furtherest point from the old man, Loki place Neko on the ground and gave a solemn gaze before turning and walking three paces away. Loki turned and faced the Cat, he then brought the blade up and pointed it in Neko's Direction. He closed his eyes and mumbled a prayer and then fired. The floor half a foot in front of Neko erupted in a brilliant flash of light and sound in a display he was confident would scare Neko back into human form. Loki had remembered the technique from his training. The training officer had placed explosives, buried, less than a foot in front of him and then blew them up without warning as he stood in formation, scared the appetite out of him and his entire squad, but they where far better on the live fire course later in training.

Neko remained in his feline form, though he certainly seemed quite the more flustered when the shot was fired, his fur raised along his back and his muscles rigid, eyes bulging. He made no movement or noise, he just looked rather stunned.
"You missed..." Perth commented dryly as he boredly watched the sparks of flame spurt from the lighter, obviously it needed more lighter fluid and Perth really just wanted to see if he could still manage to get a flame, he was beginning to doubt it.
(Perth doesn't look old at all, early thirties at the most, but no older! Werecats/wolves/whatevers seem to age slower than normal people, if at all... -.-)

Loki turned, obviously his reasoning for the efectivness of the kick solution was falty...if not the fear...than it must be the loss of conciousness flowing the attack. he looked at the Cat man who was still fiddiling with a lighter. "Exuse me, would you happen to have an anestehtic on you? Chloroform, Nitros oxide, even grain alcohol?" Loki grined at the thought of a drunk cat.

"Alcohol, I can manage... but you better hope that the kid doesn't have his mother's tolerance..." Perth chuckled as he withdrew a flask of straight vodka from his jacket pocket- why he had straight vodka with him was anyone's guess... but hey- he was Perth and he did whatever he damn wanted, and he wanted to carry some Russian liquor with him- so he did, of course. He tossed it to Loki, then the thought that perhaps the student was going to drink it himself occured to Perth, but it didn't seem likely.
Neko shivvered slightly, his sensitive kitty ears ringing from the shot and he was nearly blinded as well, he looked uncomprehensibly towards Loki and then Perth, obviously not enjoying this very much, and upon hearing the talk of anesthetics... he knew it wasn't going to get much better. His ears pressed flat against his skull and his tail between his legs as he slowly began backing away, a feline growl resonating in his throat.

Loki caught the flask with a smile. bringing it to his chest, he unscrewed the bottle and then brought it to his mouth. taking a drink he grimaced slightly, "More powerful than the synthetic stuff." he said, then screwed it down tight. he walked over to the hopefully still blind cat, saying, "Neko, this stuff will knock you out, the unconsciousness should help regain your form, so drink this up, the whole flask...and you should be out like a light. and back to human form in no time."

Neko looked up at Loki with an expression that seemed to read with a simple, yet effective- 'HELL NO' and he rather kindly kept that expression as he shook his head side to side, backing away slowly. If Neko had learned atleast one thing in his life, it was that alcohol and him weren't buddies. It could only be guessed how bad it would be since he was in his feline form.
"You need help? Because he looks like he's going to make a break for it..." Perth was beginning to doubt whether or not Neko had really resulted from one of his times with Solstice... because there seemed no wai that Neko could possibly be his son, I mean... look at him! He's about to run away from alcohol! Perth thought it was one of the oddest things someone could do- run from a wonderful thing such as vodka.
Then again, he mused... Neko WAS raised by women... Perth shook his head in shame. Solstice, and whoever else she was hanging out with, shouldn't have been trusted to raise anyone, this Neko kid probably had one or two issues, and it wouldn't suprise Perth if the kid was gay or something of the sort.
(Note- Neko's not gay, Perth is just assuming what he believes would be the worst case scenario... because Perth is like that... yeah, he's not the most pleasant person ever. I know. I wanted him to be that way.)
