Acension city

[Aconitum]

Acon looked at Ronnie as though he was crazy. "I'm fine. Are you ok? D-do you not want me to..."

[Rayleonarde]

Ronnie stepped forward, and stumbled into the wardrobe. The latch on the outside fell, locking the door shut. Ray blinked, and swore silently. He stared at Acon threw the crack in the door. Ronnie walked forward, and began undoing his shirt. "N-No...no...you just...caught me off guard."  Ray quickly sent Acon a text.



/* Keep going, I'll try and get free. Don't text back. */

[Aconitum]

Acon bit her bottom lip and grabbed Ronnie's shirt. She leaned upward and kissed him passionately as she undid the rest of the buttons.

[Rayleonarde]

Ronnie returned the kiss, and did his best to help.  Ray looked around the wardrobe, and found a wire hanger. He bent it, and was set to flip the latch. He just needed Ronnie closer. Ray shot another text to Acon.


/* Get him close, and I'll put him down */

[Farewell]

*Zaida woke up and got a drink of water in the middle of the night*

[Aconitum]

Acon slowly started pushing Ronnie toward the couch, which sat just infront of the wardrobe. She had her paws on his belt when she was just about to fall backward onto the furniture.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray undid the latch, as soon as they hit the couch, to cover the noise. Ray drew his blade, and waited for Acon to lean back. He didn't want to stab her by accident.

Ronnie held Acon's paws. "Wait...wait.  Can I ask a question? Who's texting you?" He kissed her again. "You're phone's been going off all night, but I haven't seen you responding."

[Aconitum]

Acon had to catch her breath a moment before she shook her head. "My friend, Jess. She wanted to hang tonight, but I just don't care. Please..." Acon took her phone from her back pocket and threw it across the room. She slightly moved off to the side, to avoid being stabbed, as she resumed kissing Ronnie.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray pushed the door open slowly, and padded quietly over to Ronnie. He held the blade in his paw, poised to strike.  Ronnie looked up in a moment of ecstasy, and spotted Ray, but much too late. Ray drove the silver blade threw his back, angled to miss Acon, and pinned him to the couch. Ray panted. "S-Sorry that took so long...the...the damn latch stuck. Y-You okay?" He sniffed Ronnie's lips and winced. "Bastard. He's got an aphrodisiac all over his lips." Ray looked at Acon. "You feel okay?"

[Farewell]

*she yawned tiredly and looks at zero sleep peacefully and smiles. She walks up to him and lays down next to him and hugs him relaxing as she buried her snout in his chest feeling cozy and safe with him she smiles and slowly starts to fall asleep again*

[Aconitum]

Acon panted a moment before she looked up at Ray with an accomplished smile. "Yup. I-is it over? Is Ronnie gone for good?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray breathed lightly. "I...I think so. Giovanni's going to be quite upset, with this turn of events...unfortunately...Ronnie was Giovanni's son, and closest lieutenant." He passed a worried glance at Acon. "You sure you're okay?"

[Aconitum]

Acon wiggled herself out from under Ronnie, using his discarded shirt to cover herself. "Y-yeah. I'm fine. He didn't use anything though, so that could prove to be problematic in the future. But... I figured we can cross that bridge when we come to it."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray offered his paw, smiling kindly. "Here, I'll take you to bed, and then I'll clean this mess, okay?"

[Aconitum]

Acon took Ray's paw with a smile. "Ok. Sounds like a plan. Do you think Giovanni will figure out it was us that killed Ronnie?"
