Trapped in a Pyramid

Scar continued to walk towards the human female as his rage bubbled just below the surface. He would have been just fine if that human hadn't barged her way into his 'discussion' with the elders. If it had stayed where it had been when he left it here he would not be in this problem right now.

When a clan went hunting, the prey it went hunting for was its property and if was there right to hunt it as assigned by the 'great elders'. However, if another clan staked a claim to the same hunting spot then open warfare, or clan-based struggles would occur between the two clans.

This law of clan warfare now applied to Predator-to-Predator from the same clan if a dispute was made. Accidently, on Scar's part, when he had had the other Predator 'guard' in a throat hold he accidentally said that the human was his property. The human girl had the marking of their clan, which had been done by him, so the elder accepted his right that she was his property. She wasn't one of then because she was not a Predator, but if he accepted responsiblity for her then she would be allowed to stay.

However, he had prevented the other Predator from doing his assigned task and that was a direction violation of Predator law. Now in one 'earth' cycle, he would have to battle with this fellow Predator, to the death perhaps, because of this human girl.

Scar let out a growl as he grabbed her and tossed hr forcefully onto the 'bed' they had shared before and glared at her as she struggled weakly against his larger and more powerful body. Scar applied pressure to her chest area which cut off the flow of air that she could receive which resulted in her to quite her futile efforts to escape his grasp. She blinked away tears that were forming in her eyes which resulted in the Predator above her to release his hold on her.

Lex gasped painfully for air as her ribs began to hurt like hell. As she was doing this she could she that Scar was extremely scared of something and that it probably had to do with something involving her. Lex uprighted herself and sat next to Scar as he growled at her for doing so.

Lex did not know what to say so she did the only thing she could possibly do at that moment and put her small hand into his much bigger one and interlocked the fingers. She could see him stare at her much smaller hand and she just smiled up at him before she looked back down at their hands interlocked. What she had just done was extrmely important to her, she had just shown, she hoped, that if the Predator was in any trouble she would always be there to help him out.

Scar made a few clicks as his upper two mandibles clicked together and Lex watched him very closely as their bodies got closer and closer together. Slowly Lex lied back down onto the 'bed' and the Predator followed her down to meet with her body. If anyone passed by that room during the 'night' they would have heard alot of noises comming from it, but they would dare not enter.

Later on, Lex rested her head on Scar's strong chest and she sighed comfortably. He ran one of his clawed hands through he black hair and made a little chirp. Lex thinking it was goodnight responded with her own comment to the creature next to her before she closed her eyes and went to sleep.
