Aoi waited in the side car while Taichi spoke with the man who called him. He was bloody, meaning this guy had a knife, and was dangerous, also meaning that she had to be on her toes with agility in her back pocket, and that it was her job to catch the person, and her man's job to hold them until the police got there.
Taichi didn't look like much, but for some reason, when the dangerous humans saw him, they began running. When she caught them, they began whimpering.
She could smell someone nearby. She didn't really think much of him. But, then she heard a scream. She sat up quickly, smelling blood. She snarled as she leapt out of the side car and began running at full speed towards the source. She let out a bark, telling her man that she was going after the guy now. He already does so much... The talking, the questioning when the dummy's being uncooperative... He even holds the guy down so he won't spring up at me... Me, I just do the chasing and the catching, something I've always done... I don't know what it is. Something just keeps telling me to hunt to kill...
Taichi had no use for weapons anymore. He had Aoi, who was much more affective than any gun or knife. He was proud of her, even if the guy sometimes lost blood in the process, or had a couple of broken limbs. The police only saw this as the fact that he was a bounty hunter... No. This pair were bounty hunters. Their ways were a bit rougher than those the police used. "Looks like she's on his tail already." He said to the bloody guy, and calling the attack in to the police. He then bolted after his dog, catching up to her by following her movements perfectly. He still remained some twelve feet behind.
She stopped... Now, she was just plain stalking her target. She made sure her man was safe and out of sight, then she let out a snarl. The person her target had attacked was dead... A woman who was walking her dog, who was also dead... It made her sick. The dog was in a position that seemed as though it was trying to protect her, from the way it's teeth were bared.
Her target was still there, looking for something to loot off of the female human.
The ebony fae's optics narrowed from rage as she lunged out from behind the car that concealed her and her man. She had jumped up onto the roof of the car and towards the human with the knife. She took him by surprise, and had begun tearing the flesh around his arms up, as well as snarling and snapping threateningly at his throat.
"Call the dog off!" The dangerous one shouted, trying to keep her from biting his neck.
"The more you struggle, the harder she'll try to kill you. If you turn on me when she gets off, I can't promise that she won't kill you... You've been warned." He walked slowly towards them, taking his sweet time.
"CALL IT OFF!" He pleaded in agony.
"Aoi, off." Taichi said calmly.
Aoi stopped and got off. As soon as she did, Tai slammed his shoulder into the guy's gut and roughly put the handcuffs on him. The wolf blinked, watching and making sure her man was safe. Once that was confirmed, she sat beside the dog who laid still in the dirt.
"I... I bet a wolf like you thinks I'm worthless..." The dog said, breath coming soon and shallow as he chuckled.
"Of course not." She said quietly. "You risked your life to protect your human. In my opinion, I believe that you did your job." She smiled faintly at him. "What's your name, Old Timer?" She asked.
"F... Forest..." He coughed up blood as he began fading.
"Forest... I'll make sure that you're honored and remembered."
The wolf threw her head back and let out a mournful and respectful howl. As she did so, dogs in the neighborhood joined in, sending their respect with the dying guardian.
Taichi called this in as well. "We've got one dead down the street from the one that's injured. Tell your guys to just follow the sound of howling. I caught him, and he's not really going to get anywhere. Aoi tore his legs open like the last one. Must be something about the idiots killing dogs that protect their humans."
