What a mess he's gotten himself into. Now he's sitting in tied up with some other stranger, muffled, and being asked questions by a giggling knife-toting wierdo.

It all started when Aiden decided he went along with a bunch of refugees, hoping he would continue to be just one step ahead of that damn Assassin. Instead, he was knocked unconscious, beaten, stripped of his weapons, and thrown into a dirt pile with those lucky enough to not die during the bandit attack.
It all went to complete crap at the first bursts of gunfire, some woman in our huddled crowd screamed "He's dead!" before another gunfire sound cracked through the walls of the subway, and then some laughing, the woman who screamed dropped down as well, dead. Then, complete chaos. People ran all over, hoping for a good hiding spot, and sadly, this was all our fault, rangers did say that this was unsafe territory for huge, unarmed crowds. More gunshots were heard, and more people died, but Aiden decided not to run, he reached in one of the caravan carts in hopes to find his gun, when he finally gotten a grasp of it, he heard one of the bandits shout "Here doggy!" As Aiden growled and turned around to confront that racist jerk, he was smacked in the head by what seemed like a metal bat. It was blunt, and heavy, and all it did was made him hurt, badly. He slumped to the cart, watching with blurry vision on all that was happening, the racist one shouting to someone else, "Hey boss! Got another one for ya'!" and he went to drag him, he really wanted to fight this bastard, but alas, he was too weak to move, or even see for that matter...
After some time 'napping', Aiden awoke to see that the confrontation was over, he was in some strewn-up pen with other unfortunate souls. Bodies lay about the camp, the bandits brushing them aside like they were garbage, mere crumpled-up pieces of paper that needed to be piled up in a trash can. It was sickening, but nothing out of the ordinary these days. Aiden was lucky to be awake, let alone alive. Apparently, so was everyone else, they gathered around him as he woke up, some smiled and patted the Anthro on the back. He wasn't the only one knocked unconscious either, they were also waiting on another man, sprawled against the wall, with blood dripping from his head. A little girl-probably his daughter, had her arms wrapped around him, her face buried against him.
This may just be Aiden's bad judgement, but something says that father's not waking up anytime soon. Of course, nobody dared said that or even attempt to make sure, it's just one of the few shining examples of respect on this scorched Earth.
A few more groups blindly made their way through this area, and ended up being in this cage as well, totaling our group to 15 sad and lonely prisoners. All Aiden thought during the time: Why did the fugitive Anthro with a criminal record get to live, and the loving father of a sweet kind girl have to suffer? He placed his hand on his cheek, and stared at the ground for awhile. Then, someone hatched an idea to escape, and Aiden, and two others went along with it, four of us in general, he said one of us were going to stay, to be the Martyr. Aiden nodded in agreement, he will be the one to distract the bandits, while the others got to escape, it was what he was meant to do, plus, he gets to make sure that racist gets to eat his words.
When the other two open the door, Aiden ran straight for that racist arse with a bat. He just stood there in surprise, and screamed as Aiden bit his neck. Hard. Blood was pouring from his neck and his mouth as soon as they tore Aiden off of them. The threw him to the ground, and beat him some more until he started coughing up blood, then, the pulled him into another room, and tied him up? After all this they were going to simply let him live? He bit someone's neck!
These are some pretty nice bandits then, possibly a faction deal going on. Guess there really is a set of standards for all of the cattle they 'attain'. Good to know...
eventually, said escapees were also captured, goodness knows what they did wrong, ad sent two of them back here in this room.
What happened to the third? Aiden shuddered to think...
~~~
And that brings us to the present, and to the matter at hand, well, Aiden was not one to use his words much, only when doing small talk and desperate attempts at avoiding desolation does he talk to people. He looked at the other two bound people, the one in the corner looked dead...not good. The other one...well, let's just put the description as 'wildcard' on that one. He looked at the leader with cold, dark eyes, and growled a muffled growl at him. He refused to speak. And what was he going to do? When you're a slave, you have nothing to lose, and everything to gain...
