"Injuries sustained will kill him in a couple hours without medical assistance." Elly was helpfully updating Xanthiana on the state of their wounded prisoner. He had coughed up some blood, but outside of that and the obvious gunshot wounds seemed stable enough.
"Screw you, you cat fucking bitch." Xanthiana sighed, she had dealt with humans ridiculous belief that her people were some kind of human cat hybrid her entire life, but she never got used to how ignorantly they held to the belief.
"You're dying, I can help you, but you'll have to help me." It seemed a reasonable request to make to someone she shot, the dying man did not see it that way and frantically tried to reach for a weapon. Xanthiana stepped on his hand.
"His ego device is attempting to connect to others, should I block the signal?" Elly was her usual helpful self and Xanthiana appreciated it.
"No let it go through."
"They don't care about me, but I'm letting them know all about you, and they'll find you you stupid.." Xanthiana stepped on his throat and then crouched down to his face.
"I hope you're receiving me loud and clear whoever you are, I killed your men here, and I'll kill you, not out of any concern for the ranchers or sense of justice. No I'll kill you because you inconvenienced me, so rally your little group of dumb assholes together, you know where you can find me." She crushed his throat as a sign off. She might have been able to get more information out of him, but she doubted it, he was a follower not a leader, and they don't tell followers anything.
"I was not able to trace the signal to other EGO devices Xan."
"Its ok Elly I'm sure they'll come looking for us."
"And what will we do in the meantime?"
"Plan Elly, we'll plan because if there is one thing my time with the Votanis Collective taught me, human's can't plan for shit."
