Been a while since we've seen those Fangs of Midas being up to no good, right? Looks like they've nabbed another hostage for ransom money, and a rather apathetic hostage at that.
‘Well, this is a bummer…’ Ruby sighed into the rags stuffed into and bound over her mouth. ‘I mean, not that I had any plans, but I could at least be wasting my time shopping at the mall instead of this dump…’ It had been about an hour since rowdy thugs had hauled her of the street in a rickety van and left tied up in one of Azure City’s many empty warehouses. ‘How many of these does this crappy city even have? And when is this creep gonna leave alone?’ The creep being Bruin, a gargantuan grizzly bear that served as the Fangs of Midas’ main muscle and bodyguard, who had silently been looming over their captive for the past hour.
They hadn’t harmed her, the only thing hurt was her dignity: during the struggle her skirt had gotten ripped up, leaving her in her strawberry-print undies. The gang planned to keep Ruby hostage to squeeze a few million out of her mother, Sonja Wynters, the wealthy owner of the adult entertainment company named after her. Ruby had no doubt her mom would let anything happen to her, while also not giving in to these criminal’s demands: the red-haired cat really only had to wait this out.
The teenaged feline repeatedly rapped her heels against the cold concrete floor in annoyance. With how tightly she was tied it was the only movement she could make to relieve her excruciating boredom. The knots were secure, definitely, but being the daughter of a renowned dominatrix, she had seen and experienced many much more exciting tie-ups. Ruby must’ve been one of the few people to yawn from disinterest while being kidnapped. ‘Man, can these jerks hurry it up? My favourite show starts soon.’
