'You got it mostly right, Sherlock.
I heard the five men sneaking up to the door.
I tried to wake Jed up.
When they came in I surprised them with a kiai and attacking the guy with the shotgun in the face.
That caused him to shoot another one in the leg.
He knocked me off and all of them fired at me and missed with every shot.
I was going for a groin attack on the guy with the shotgun when Jed woke up.
there was a gun fight between them all five of them died and Jed was mortally wounded.
His last words before he died was
"Looks like it's the end of the line for me, Magnus. You're the man of the house while I'm gone."
Magnus was the name he had for me. My real name is Eli Ray Bumbalough. Don't bother searching for it. The most you'll find is a human parallel version of me... It's a long story.
Back to the goons.
I had some rage issues to work out on our five 'guests'
So I developed a martial arts style and a special attack.
I call them Neko-do and the Nekoken.
You saw the results on there bodies, the door and the back window of the car.
Speaking of that, I have a splinter in my right paw, can you get somebody to get it out?
After that I called 911 and opened the door.'
"Amazing," the unfamiliar man says.
"Eli," he begins, "what is seven times eight?"
He motions to the laptop.
'It's 56.
Can you take off this collar? It's annoying.'
"Fascinating! What's the closest star to the planet?"
'It's Sol unless you are talking about the one closest to the solar system, then it's Alpha Centauri.
Can you please remove the collar?'
"Incredible!"
The black detective says, "I trust you have what you need, doctor?"
The doctor responds, "Yes, yes, indeed! You have your documented proof that this highly intelligent animal is more than adaquate to serve as a witness."
"Case closed," the asian man says.
"And I'll be taking the animal. I'd like to see how it could possibly be so highly intelligent!" The doctor seems very excited. "I trust it will be contained for me?"
"That shouldn't be a problem."
All three leave, taking the computer with them and leaving you chained to the table.
I nekoken the section that the chain is attached to until it is unattached.
I then scratch 'You're really ----ing me off'
It seems to be an iron U shaped piece attached to the table.
Are you sure you want to hit it?
No, I want to hit the table around it.
The table is of a stainless steel construction, and the hook is bolted to it. Does this change your action?
That changes my action.
I wait and see what the doctor does to me.
The doctor returns with a medical worker; you take him to be a veterinarian, as he proceeds to gently remove the splinter from your paw.
"How in the world did you do this," he wonders aloud.
He proceeds to stitch the wound.

As there is someone in your striking range at the moment or you could make this difficult, I wait here for your response.

I not going to do anything to them.
I'll continue to wait and see.
The veterinarian produces a long needle and a small bottle.
This is going to suck...
As much as I hate to do this... I let him drug me.
Yes, this is going to suck.
How thick are the wires on the cage?
I wait some more.
I let him pick me up.
I also give him a glare that says 'you better tell me what you're doing before you do it'
Or the closest thing I can with just a glare.
What luck. Lets see where this goes.
I start purring and rubbing against the one who removed the collar.
Time to go
I run out of the building.
When I'm out, I find somewhere good to hide until nightfall.
When it's night, I walk stealthily heading towards my equipment vectors.
I'll hunt one of them. I'll try to sneak up on one and use
1@1 neko-do v2 B7@1 Slow aggressive weapon-adverse, claw-based, +20 Attack Damage Mod, +20 Attack SM, +20 Defense SM, -40 Defense Damage Mod
it should be enough to kill them without causing them to explode.
I drag it somewhere hidden and chow down.
Mmmmm...rabbit...
After I eat all that I can, I continue towards my equipment.
How bad does it look?
I'll try to arrange is to protect it from the weather better.
It's mostly me trying to get my
(Australian Oilskin coat: looks like western duster coat. (Oilskin is cloth treated with oils and waxes to make it waterproof.))over all of it.
Did I notice any signs of large predatory animals on my way here?
I'm looking for where they marked their territory.
Large is anything bigger than me.
Ok, lets set down and think. I am a cat now. I want my old body back.
My old body is possessed by that ghoul symbiont...I'm not likly to get it back. Which means that I have to make or have someone else make a new body for me...I need somewhere with high technology,magic or psionics. Which is not here. I'll have to wait for something to come along and kill me. I guess I'll train while I wait. Or I can pick a fight with twenty dogs... or a bear. a bear might work...
Do I sense other vectors?

I always wanted to fight a bear after I became immortal. Lets see if I can find a zoo in that city
I'm heading back to the city and looking for a zoo.
I'll try to ignore them and continue my search.
I'll hunt something and find somewhere to hide and sleep.
I look for a trash can with one of the mouth-watering odors in it and try to knock it over.
I grab the mouthwatering thing, run, and hide somewhere.
After I eat it, I sleep for a while.
When I wake up, I'll try to sneak into the zoo and look around.
What kinds of large predatory animals do they have?
lions? tigers? bears? wolfs?
I'll go, find a bear and pick a fight with it.
I'll use
1@1 neko-do v2 B7@1 Slow aggressive weapon-adverse, claw-based, +20 Attack Damage Mod, +20 Attack SM, +20 Defense SM, -40 Defense Damage Mod
That should have killed me. but Noooo...I wake up in a animal hospital with a broken leg. Note to self, think before you attack... and don't use that style when you want to die.
I'll wait and see what happens.
Well there's not much I can do at this point so I'll sit there and wait.
I'm ok with that.
OOC; I looked in the peanut gallery... I hate being a cat. Although it doesn't matter since versers are sterile anyway.
Well some being wants me to stay here awhile... I guess I'll practice my styles and the nekoken while the old woman sleeps.
I'll fight him back until he gives up.
I'm not using a style since I don't want to kill him
