"Hey, let go of me, you creep!" Shane protested, trying to pull his arm loose.
Jin ignored him, clawing him once on his bare chest, drawing blood. He yelped in pain, and tried again to get Jin off him, but Jin just bit down on his arm harder, dragging him towards a deserted part of the beach.
Once Jin was certain nobody was around, he let go of Shane's arm. Shane fell backwards, pressing one hand over the wound on his other arm that Jin's fangs had caused, trying to stop it from bleeding. He glared up at the panther defiantly.
"What's your problem, man?!" he demanded.
"I warned you never to go near my girlfriend again, you stupid bastard. Now you will pay for it," Jin growled.
He was just about to go for Shane's throat when someone called out to him.
"Jin! Wait!" a female's voice called quietly.
Jin and Shane looked up and saw Rehteah standing there, her ebony wings unfurled with Cleo and Lupus standing slightly behind her, flanking her. She looked like a queen with her entourage. Her red-gold hair blew around her face in the breeze like wild flames as she stood there, and her dark blue sarong skirt blew around her legs.
"It's all right, love. I've got this under control. He won't hurt you anymore," Jin said, shooting a glare at Shane, who shrank back away from him, trying to disappear into the sand.
Rehteah stepped forward, her expression completely unreadable. She stopped in front of Shane and stared down at him. He winked at her suggestively, but she ignored the gesture.
"I know. But just make sure there's enough left of him for me to have a chance to maim him," she said, her tone a quiet threat as she put her hand on his cheek for just an instant before stepping away.
Cleo and Lupus glanced at each other in surprise for a moment. Neither of them had ever heard her sound that angry before. Cleo shrugged and gave Lupus a look that clearly said, *you know what they say, it's always the quiet ones.*
Jin gave Shane an evil grin, baring his fangs, before turning back to Rehteah. "No problem, love," he said.
"Thank you," Rehteah said, lightening her tone slightly before she walked away.
Jin waited until the trio had walked away before turning back to Shane. The blond-haired young man flinched, backing away from Jin. Jin, still in his panther form, stood up and grabbed Shane by the throat, holding him above the ground. Shane flailed around, trying to get loose, but he couldn't. Jin hurled him away after a moment, and the unfortunate idiot hit the side of a nearby cliff face. He hit the hard, rocky surface and his arm snapped back in an unnatural position, the bone breaking in several different places. Shane yelled in pain and tried to get up, but he couldn't.
Jin stalked forward, and hovered over him as Shane stared up at him in terror. Jin raked his claws across Shane's face, drawing blood, then shifted back into his natural form, except for his still cat-like eyes. They remained the same eerie golden color, seeming to glow. Then he grabbed Shane by the nape of the neck and dragged him back along the beach until he found Rehteah, who was still talking to Cleo and Lupus. She glanced up at them as they approached, seeing how beaten up Shane was.
Rehteah stood up, her eyes going cold as she stared down at Shane. Jin dropped him unceremoniously at her feet and bowed slightly to her.
"Here you go, milady," Jin said, a slightly playful tone in his voice as he said this.
Rehteah nodded and turned back to Lupus and Cleo for a moment. The two took the hint and stood up. They then took their leave, both of them having an inkling of what was going to happen, but they didn't go very far, just in case she needed backup. But one look at Shane told them it wouldn't be very likely that she would need backup.
"Thank you, Jin," Rehteah said, stiffling the grin at his comment.
"Have fun, love."
"Oh, I will, trust me," she replied, giving Jin a miscievous wink.
"Then I will leave you to your business," he said and walked away.
Rehteah turned her attention back to Shane, who was still on the ground, but had managed to get to his knees. He stared up at her, unwilling to show any kind of nervousness. He had seen what Xani was capable of, as far as any of their Force powers were concerned, but he'd never seen much of what Rehteah could do, especially if she was angry. The worse thing she'd ever done to him was slap him across the face or cut him once on the face with that damned switchblade of hers.
Ok, here's my part. my muse didn't want to cooperate with me, so the fight scene is done by bluefire.
Jin ignored him, clawing him once on his bare chest, drawing blood. He yelped in pain, and tried again to get Jin off him, but Jin just bit down on his arm harder, dragging him towards a deserted part of the beach.
