Snippet #893562

Satechel looked back around at the women he had surrounded himself with. He didn't wish harm upon any of them, but he knew no matter how strong, fast or endurant he was, he'd never be able to take all of their bullets for them. They were being brave, and maybe a little over confident in Shi's case, but he'd not look a gift horse in the mouth. After all, morale played a big part in the war games they'd be soon playing. At least her spirit couldn't be dampened.

Thinking of Song, she probably couldn't fight directly as she said. The snow leopard hybrid had more things to her advantage than she thought. Snow leopards weren't about fighting their prey; more of ambushing it. Maybe he or Shi could teach Songrose how to get the jump on a few guys.

Coryi was the one he was worried about most. Not about her fighting potential, but he worried about her. He couldn't explain why....but really didn't want anything bad to happen to her. He thought her name over and over again....
Suddenly his eyes glazed over, and he sit there in somewhat of a hypnotized gaze. Something...something was playing over again in his mind. It was just like seeing it out of his eyes...

He was looking around room, adorned with weights and other workout equipment. Looking towards the center, he saw a rather muscular looking hybrid. Two actually. They adapted a fighting stance, as did Satchel. And suddenly, the fight began. A flurry of punches and blows flew towards the smaller hyena hybrid, as he adequately blocked and deflected most of the blows. Satchel couldn't control his body, only watch from his on view.... It was compared to playing Tekken from a first person view. He apparently grabbed one of the hybrid's legs, and twisted it, and throwing him after spinning on his heels. Satchel turned around just to block the other's fist with the point of his elbow, breaking his foe's knuckles. He then grabbed the man's shoulder and brought his knee to the man's face in a viscious jumping attack. The man fell to the ground, clutching his face. Satchel landed and turned sharply, to catch a uppercut with his jaw. He backflipped into a handspring, his feet landing on the other hybrid, causing him to groan.

But the fight was just about over, he didn't see the hybrid that had punched him had adorned brass knuckles. He looked up to get pummeled square in the forehead with a fully extended straight punch, which knocked him a good six feet back. He brought his hands up to his forehead, to hold his wound, bringing his hand back into his vision, to see new, red blood adorning his hand. He rolled over, and pushed himself to all fours, before colapsing again, with the help of a boot to the side. He was once again on his back. Satchel could see one of the hybrids walk over to him, grinning like the mad dog he was made after. Satchel's hand reached forward, as to suggest helping him up. The man indeed reached down, and grabbed his hand, pulling him forward just slightly, just enough to get his head and shoulders off the ground. But as soon as it seemed like good sportsmanship, the man's other hand came back down to slam the hyena man's head back into the ground with a sharp jab. He felt two pains; the one from the punch, and the one from hitting his head. He then saw the hybrid he had wounded come forth, his broken fingers twitching. He knelt down, and placed a knee on each side of Satchel, before begining to pummel his face. He felt the blunt pain of a fist on all sides of his head, before finally, he couldn't hold his eyes open any more.... It all faded to black.

But that wasn't the end of the flashback.... His eyes slowly reopened as he felt his body being shaken. His head rolled over to look to see what was shaking him.... It was...a woman. But not just any woman.... It was....Coryi? It had to be her. He couldn't mistake her face. She was asking him something, but he couldn't hear anything...it was all just high pitched whine. Her mouth was moving... he just wished he knew how to read lips...She lifted him off the ground, and slung him over her shoulder, begining to carry him like a wounded soldier.... But the memory almost scrambled out, like a bad television.

Satchel came back to, completely unaware of his surroundings. Apparently Song had gotten her natural poisons, and Shi and Coryi had been talking to her. Hopefully noone had noticed his trance. He went back to planning in his head, again trying to keep his mind off the memory that had just risen in his head with little effect.
