SUPERNATURAL FURRIES

Chapter 20: Jus in Bello

"You knew Slagar," said Krystal to an old, drunken fox.

"Yes," said Rufus, the fox. "Here's his phone number. You can track him down."

Krystal called Slagar. Slagar answered.

"Hello Slagar," said Krystal. "We're coming for you and we'll take the Colt back."

"I was expecting you," came Slagar's voice. "And I've taken measures."

Gonta and Bruenks rushed into the room.

"I've got them, Bishop!" said Gonta.

Agent Lance entered the room. Krystal and Renamon tried to run, but Sheriff Wolfe and Deputy Pyre shot them with stun guns and they fell to the floor.

"Why didn't you kill them?" said Gonta.

"Because for people who are low enough to burn down barns, destroy other people's TVs and eggs, and rob banks, living in a high security vault is worse than death," said Lance.

Renamon and Krystal were locked in a cell.

"What do we do?" said Krystal.

"Shhh!" said Renamon.

Lance entered. "Tomorrow we will transfer you each to a high security vault," he said. "We will make you run your finger along the wall. Anyone who does not have a badge will end up trapped inside it until the day that person dies or until it is opened once every ten years. And you will be locked in separate areas and rot there."

Lance walked away.

"We've got to get out of here!" said Krystal.

Gonta and Bruenks, being the brave men they were, walked in. Gonta beat up Krystal. Hard. For a long time. Bruenks bit Renamon's tail and kicked her shins. Renamon punched Bruenks in the nose. Bruenks howled like a girl.

"Quit being such a sissy, Bruenks!" said Gonta. He orked up some loogey and spit it directly at Renamon. Renamon ducked and it landed in Bruenks's mouth while it was open, screaming in pain. He began coughing and threw up. Renamon dove out of the way in time to avoid it, but fell to the floor in the process. Seizing the opportunity, Bruenks kicked Renamon while she was down.

Once both farmers were satisfied, they walked out of the prison cell. Lance walked back in with Wolfe and Pyre.

"Listen," said Lance. "There's been a change in plans."

Lance raised a gun and shot Wolfe. Pyre screamed.

"What are you doing?" he said.

Lance's eyes turned black. He aimed his gun at Krystal, but it was out of ammo. He tore open the cell door.

"Diamond Storm!" said Renamon. She shot diamonds at the demon, knocking him backward. Krystal read an incantation. Gonta and Bruenks arrived in time to see Krystal exorcise the demon from Lance.

"I shot the sheriff," said Lance.

"You didn't shoot the deputy," said Renamon.

"Was I… possessed by a demon?" said Lance.

"I owe you the biggest I told you so ever," said Renamon.

"So that means…" said Gonta.

"Yes," said Krystal. "The Renamon that burned down your barn was a shapeshifter."

"All along!" said Gonta. "What a plot twist! Renamon, I hope you can forgive me."

"You don't really require Renamon's forgiveness do you?" said Krystal. "I'm the one you beat up."

Suddenly, Ruby entered. "There are a hundred demons here. They want to kill you. They were sent by the demons' new leader. Her name is Lilith. But I know a way to stop them."

Once everything was set up, they removed the salt. Ruby ran off as quick as she could and the demons poured into the building. Lance hit a switch on a tape, playing an exorcism spell, and all the demons were sent back to hell but one, who escaped.

"So, we won't chase you anymore," said Gonta.

"And we now know you didn't burn down the barn," said Lance. "See ya around, furries."

Renamon and Krystal got into their car and drove away.

Five minutes later, a little girl entered the room. "I'm looking for two vixens," she said.

"What's your name?" said Lance.

"Lilith," said the girl. Her eyes turned white and she raised her hand. Lance, Pyre, Gonta, Bruenks, and Nancy were vaporized in an explosion of white light.
