Bambi bites her bottom lip, knowing she could do nothing to help them. "Ahh, well, yes, I know that..." She had figured it was something of the sort. She tries to think of a way to help them, but it was an entirely different department altogether. Besides which, it probably wouldn't do her much good to try to negotiate with an android, but still...
"Well, they're definitely terrified, yes? I'm sure they can't pay back the loans in the middle of the street with nothing but the clothes on their back. I could consult with them myself in order to help you. I mean, people are often more communicative and willing to cooperate with those like them, correct?" She states, evening her voice and folding her hands behind her back.
Being as observative as she is due to her paranoia, she notices them sneaking away as she talks, but she still continues to. Part of her mind goes crazy at how much trouble she could get in, but the other part rationalizes that she could say she was trying to sort it out in a civil manner.

Turning his head to listen to the screams for a few seconds before darting after the girl he had just met only to find a creditor trying to fight hilja and one of her friends. He sighs and shakes his head, cursing his luck once again before moving to a spot just behind bambi, focusing his powers into the ground as the girl talked to the creditors to wait for the right time.
Seeing hilja and her friend run off down an alley, Attis looked back towards the creditor and the girl, watching to see what aspires, although it quickly starts to get boring with all of the talking. I think I may go back to the apartment... then again, I could always make it interesting again...

The android considers her words, but her orders and programming are to attack and terrorize those with credit problems. She shakes her head from side to side, in a distressed fashion.
"No, it is our orders to attack and terrorize those with bad credit scores." The android insists. She does not notice that Kasper and Hilja are gone now. "It is not the policy of the Creditors. It is not the policy." The android repeats.
"I would like a pet cat." The android announces suddenly.

Bambi is confused by the sudden announcement, but it could be the answer to how to avoid getting in trouble for intervening. "Really? I quite like cats, myself. Why don't we go get you a pet cat then?" She questions, though she hated to spend more time with one of the creditors. Noticing the fox, she leans to scoop him up and scratch his ear. The softness and warmness of the animal helped calm her from the distress this whole situation was causing her.
"Do you have a name?" She questions the android as she waits for it to either agree to go with her to find a pet cat for it, or realize the people had escaped. She wasn't sure if creditors had names, but she assumed they must. After all, how would they address them? She just hope they had normal names...

"I am Annika 25, created one year ago by Sota in a lab in Sweden." Annika replies to Bambi. She has now been so distracted that she forgot all about Kasper and Hilja.
"Kasper Schultz had a digital pet dog. It made me think that I too would like an animal. I would like a cat. Let us find a cat." The creditor decides. But then she sees the fox and gets another idea.
"Or this fox. I would like this fox."

Thoren swoops down from the sky and flaps his wings a couple times before touching his feet to the ground. He lands next to the creditor and quietly states to Annika 25, "Yes I would like a fox too...."
Thoren yells to the fox "Attis Svaboda! There you are! We've been looking for you."
Thoren smirks slightly. "Time to give it up 'ol boy."

Close enough to a normal name. Bambi opened her mouth to reply, before Annika says she would also like the fox. "Oh, well, you see..." She wonders if the android would understand that it might belong to someone. She wouldn't feel right just giving something that didn't belong to her away...
"I think this fox belongs to someone else. You'd have to ask the fox's owner to take the fox. I think a cat would be easier to take care of, though, and then you could be sure it was all yours." Bambi tries to explain, glancing down at the fox in her arms.
Just then, a man with wings comes from the sky and speaks to... the fox? "Uhm." She states, simply confused.

I watch quietly from the alley and see that an angel has arrived on the scene. This worries me since he seems to know Attis, but maybe it will help me! I don't remember Attis very well maybe this will help me understand who this Attis really is.

"I understand, if the fox is private property, those rights must be respected above all others." The machine replies. Upon noticing that an angelic man has appeared, she wonders if the fox is his property.
"This fox must be his property." The android determines.

Bastard. Attis glanced up towards the person who interupted the conversation, Letting out a light growl before jumping out of Bambi's arms, glaring towards the angel for a few seconds before darting off towards an alleyway, away from the creditor and in the opposite direction of hilja. Once he made it through the entrance of the alleyway, vines grew out from the concrete and created a barrier to prevent anyone from following as he quickly changed forms.
"That angel is going to pay for that..."

Hearing the Androids statement, Thoren tilts his head slightly and says, "Yes, he will be my property soon.....well at least property of the Anti-Drug Commission."
Thoren watches as the fox bursts out of Bambi's arms and runs down an allyway. Thoren then shakes his head in disgust as the vines instantly destroy any chance to pursue him.
"Attis....Attis, when will you learn. Oh well, there's always tomarrow. I'll get you next time."
Thoren then turns his attention to Bambi and says, "I suggest, my dear that you avoid any contact with ANY foxes you may encounter in the future. You never now what they may be carrying."

"Ack!" Bambi is startled as the fox jumps from her arms, and frowns at the fur that rubbed off onto her dress. Great... Looking back at Annika, she laughs softly. "If that's his owner, he must not be very fond of him." She thinks that maybe creditors weren't as bad as they seemed. They were just doing their job, and it wasn't their fault some of them were built creepy or with lack of personalities.
Then, the angel addresses her, and she feel tenses. "Ahh, well, yes, but you don't normally see foxes in a town... So I figured he must be tamed, and so wouldn't be carrying some weird disease..." She replies, feeling the hair at the nape of her neck rise as she begins worrying again about that possibility.

When Attis leaves, the android loses interest in everything and remembers that she was going after Hilja and Kasper. She walks away without another word to complete her mission. If not Hilja or Kasper, she is sure that she will come across another unfortunate person.
She will try to find a cat later.
She walks away and soon disappears down a street.

Once the creditor is gone, I step out of my hiding spot and approach Bambi and the angel man. I have my arms crossed since I feel shy and cautious.
"I know that fox. He is my friend, I think." I tell them both. "I don't think he is a bad person." I add.
I look over at Bambi. "Thanks for saving me from the android. It was very nice of you."

Bambi blushes faintly, glancing nervously from the angel to the woman she'd save. "Ah, well, I just don't believe in the whole violence thing... And I thought I could do something, and I'd feel bad if I didn't..." Hearing that the fox was Hilja's friend, she relaxes slightly, as if that ridded it of diseases.
"Why is your credit so bad? Maybe I could help you make a payment plan or something." She questions Hilja, knowing the creditors would just be back if the woman didn't get onto paying her loans.
