As he gently gripped her hand it caused her to flinch a bit. Looking up at him bright eyed, swishing her tail back and forth a few rapid times issuing a warning. Deep down she was both thrilled and terrified he had gripped her. It made her heart race, a feeling that felt good. This was like pouring gas on the already lit fire.
Being still close to danger like this was a thrill, dangerous yes. Stupid? Most defiantly. This cop could probably shoot her... Put her face out on watch... If anything... She should kill him where he stood. It would be hard seeing as he was a cop, and they did have training, as did she. A quick smoke bomb, and she could try and slip behind him and stick a knife right into his neck. With the right cut she could sever his spinal cord, or open his throat to bleed out. Killing a cop wasn't something she wanted to do, more so killing THIS cop. He hadn't made his move yet. He hadn't fully pushed her to this. However she was starting to feel backed into a corner. If he kept pressing her she would try and run. Surly there would be some path she could take, a quick shift and back into the alleyway. Anything but killing this innocent, who was simply doing his job.
For a moment she thought about it. She could turn herself in for this man. If only he knew. The moment she was out, she'd be right back at it. Right back into the crime world. He had no idea how deep her life was intertwined with it. And she'd be in so much trouble... SO MUCH... She wondered exactly how much... They would send a lawyer her way, that she was sure of. The 'family' would have her out so fast it would make their head spin... Or.. At least she hoped. That meant calling on them to save her... To use them... She would rather rot.
As the cat quickly processed for a moment, her eyes would seem to click back into reality staring the man dead in the face intensely.
"Thinking about me on a leash now? Dirty, dirty man." The arrogant tone in his voice made her perk her ears up, narrowing her yellow eyes. The tone in her own voice turned to a soft venomous hiss as she 'twisted the knife' in the already bleeding wound. "Clearly you guys don't... You managed to chase me down, sure. Which I suppose is a achievement in itself... But if you guys were really that good ya' would've brought in the valentines a long time ago... Oh~ But I know.. Your Chief Leo tries hard... I know he does~ He's a good man. Pity he obsesses over the impossible. They are untouchable... But... It doesn't take a 'Kitten' to know that tidbit."
Yawning again she would shake her head gently, trying to play off her viper strike knowing she shouldn't have struck such a sour topic. "No, I'm not planning on coming into the 'shop' with you. I'm not letting you put me in your system. And there's no way that bracelet is worth that much, that kind jewelry is saved for the big gatherings like the city ball." The corners of her lips would once more turn up into a smile. "A kitten at heart perhaps, but I don't wear a leash... I haven't for a long time."
The toothy smile faded to a half grin now, losing her spunk to keep playing with this man. A dead bird, was a dead bird. And if it was truly dead, there was no reason to continue to bother with it. "You can try to take me in. Key word 'try'. However how I see it right now, you and I are friends. Or... We could be~ You caught me doing something bad in order to survive. I gave you the jewelry back without argument. Even offered my help... But~ I guess you're not interested. As much as I wouldn't mind to roll around with you here in the dirt, I doubt your intention and my own are the same. After all this is work right? I know cop, you goat do what you goat do. I'm a bad guy right? And you're the shining knight in armor here to take me in. A true saint. Cleansing a single tiny stain on the already filthy city." Her tail would lower completely now, barley moving at all. Her face relaxed, the toothy smile disappearing completely from her passive face. Her eyes were becoming -eligible, emotionless. "I doubt I'd feel like we were friends anymore if you took me in... In fact, I doubt I could remember anything I've learned. Yeah... I think I would forget a lot off stuff over being heartbroken... It's weird how losing a friend could make someone go so crazy. Do something crazy." Her gaze was on him, her eyes lost the playful glint they might have carried before. "Either take me in, or take my offer... I could help your people in exchange for my unofficial freedom."
Blinking slowly at him the cat's expression switched yet again. The two large ears on her head bounced once, a soft chuckle left her throat. "I can tell you, taking me in is gonna be a pain in the ass anyway... Even when you get me there, I'm going to make it a struggle. I'll make it my goal to make you look like an idiot. Trust me, you'll get plenty of hazing bringing in some stray cat..." Frowning for a moment with a sigh, her voice went soft. "Would it help you if I promised not to do it again? I mean... It makes me money... Pretty much everything I 'might' do makes me money, and would probably make you mad..." Pondering this for a moment, the cat visually brightened up, she had a idea cooking. "I mean... Who knows~ My information could be worth some money... Enough to keep me out of trouble." She hoped he wouldn't push her. If she ran, he would either chase, or put out a warrant for her. He knew her face, which meant he could point her out. This could bring danger to her, and even to her family. The thought of killing him crept back into the back of her mind. The cat really didn't want to, but it was either kill him, or die in a struggle at this point. There was no way she would let a birdie sing. Then again, would the birdie sing? There was no way he wouldn't right? Her ears would lower a bit, dropping her tail. The usual spunky yellow eyes grew cold with a hint of sadness. 'Live for the family, kill for the family, die for the family.' "Or you could just let me go, and we'll act like this whole thing never happened. You go your way, and I'll go mine... I could find a new way to make money that isn't robbing the rich. Either way I'll make sure you won't see again."
