Arria steeled herself, fists clenched in anticipation of his outburst.
"I lied. We searched for her, high and low. We even went to the place where the two of you were staying one night. She's vanished. Everything in that house was gone. Cleaned out. And we have no idea where she went. If she knew we were following the two of you and she fled, she's the most cunning thing to ever live. If someone took her, they knew what they were doing...."
She stood her ground as she spoke, a little bit nervous. She was, after all, locked in a cage with him.
"Selia is gone."
she paused a moment, trying to continue,
"But I have a proposition for you."

There was no outburst. There was no overt flash of anger or rage. Matias simply stood there, fists clenched, staring at the woman in front of him. The ring of scarlet returned to his eyes, the voice beginning to whisper in his ear.
'She lied to us, pup. Go on. Turn. We're faster than she is. She won't make it out of the cell before our fangs are at her throat. Just let me take the wheel...'
He wanted oh so bad to give into the voice's desires. It tempted him, offered him blood and vengeance, but he knew if he gave in he would be lost forever. Once you completely gave into the Rage, you never came back. With effort, he managed to force the voice back into the recessed of his mind, but the wound on his ankle throbbed with pain. Claws began to extend from the tips of his fingers and toes, the beginnings of fangs sprouted from his gums.
"Get out."

She swiftly obliged, exiting the cell quickly. She stepped outside of his grasp, and continued.
"All I require is your help." she kept her voice low,
"Help me end this monstrosity of an organization. Help me put an end to all of this. The experiments, the torture, the death. It's inhumane, it's disgusting."
she paused, grimacing.
"I hate being in debt, but I can't do this alone."
His eyes were scarlet again... did they only do that when he was angry? Did he just lose control? What was going on inside that scrawny, unkempt body?

Once more his body became covered in thick black fur while his bones shifted and melded into their more lupine form. Returning to all fours, he skulked to the farthest corner away from the cell door and curled his body into a ball, tail covering his muzzle while his golden eyes shone from the shadowed corner, filled with nothing but hate and contempt. The only reply he gave to her entreaty for help was a low, guttural growl.

Almost immediately, her demeanor changed. She kicked the bars that separated them, and started to yell.
"You don't have a choice, you idiot!" she kicked the cell again, her voice growing louder.
"Look around you! Look at the cell across from yours! Have you noticed ANYONE in this entire hallway change? Or speak? Do you want to end up like the freak of nature I stick you with in the beginning!?"
Arria spat on the ground, overwhelmed with frustration, and put her forehead into her palm.
"If you don't help me, you'll die. Just like the rest of them. You'll suffer for endless days and nights while they prod and poke and cut you. If the loss of your sanity doesn't kill you from staring at the same thing for months on end, and if you don't die in the midst of some freakish experiment on a steel table, you'll die looking like Leonidas."
She picked up the tray she'd left on the floor earlier, and threw it at his cell. Bits of food scattered everywhere, the plastic tray shattered, and the fox-girl turned. She began to head for the exit, needing fresh air.

During her entire tirade, the werewolf made no movements other than the rise and fall of his slow, steady breathing as he stared from the shadows. What kind of game was she playing? Imprisoning him, lying to him about Selia to do it, and then asking for his help? How dare she insult him like that, mock and ridicule him in such a way? He didn't care anymore. Whatever this place had in store for him, he would overcome it. But... there was always the Voice.
