Warmth. That was all the young woman could feel as she laid within the hammock underneath a multitude of different blankets. Curled up against Tobias she was still and fast asleep. When he got up to leave the hammock she naturally stretched before curling up into a tighter ball. Her head would lift as she peered through one of the blankets, tired blue-grey eyes watched him slink out before the warmth and cozy sleep pulled her back in. It wasn't often that she was given this moment at night to sleep. With the Ark being loud and rambunctious at night and Tobias' unusual awake hours she had to shift her sleep schedule constantly around. Some nights her presence was needed to be on border patrol, other times she needed to enter the ring with Tobias protecting their tag-team reputation. Luckily for her she was still healing from their previous fight and there would be no entering the ring for a while. While Tobias came back into their bedroom she did not hear the sound of 'toys' falling to the ground. Feeling her arm shake her eyes would snap open and she would tilt on her back and look up to see Tobias and the whip in his hand. Eyes would widen as fear and worry grabbed a hold of her and chilled her form, despite the previous warmth the felt. Kicking the blankets off, afraid as to why he would have it in the first place she would attempt to get out of the blanket and unfortunately she fell to the floor with a loud smack.

"Tobi get rid of that whip. I don't like it."

It wasn't his fault he wasn't aware of what that particular item did. The movie may have showed this tool could be used for pleasure, but it was mostly used for a dangerous purpose. Her eyes would close as she pulled back a dark memory she tried not to think of, an image would pop into Tobias' mind and he would see two males using that same objects to harm Raven and corral her into a small cage. Still on the ground her eyes darted to see the 'adult toys' that laid strewn on the floor. How or why he had these objects she did not know and she truly didn't want to find out. Best thing to do was to throw them out of the window and into the sea and allow them to float away and sink to the bottom, where they belonged. As Tobias explained where he had been, what he was doing, and just why he had these objects she shook her head ready to speak up until he grabbed her arm and yanked her upward. Eyes narrowed when she saw the purple fluffy faux fur clasping around her wrist and to the bed post. With a sharp cry she yanked her arm back and forth wishing these cuffs were not strong. The sudden call from Tetradore caused her eyes to widen and when she shouted at Tobias to not leave her here, she growled in frustration when he told her to hurry up. Mumbling to herself she would sit on the bed and let out an irritated huff as she sent a mental image to Tetradore, showing the boy handcuffing her to the bed, fully clothed and absolutely nothing was going on between them that would have led them to the bed in other...darker ways, and hopefully he would excuse her tardiness.

It was the sound of Jackal making his way down the corridor that caused the girl to shout for help. His laughter did not smooth over things, grabbing a nearby pillow she flung it at the smaller man and hit him square in the face, but that didn't seem to silence him but only encourage his laughter to grow. For some reason he had the key slipped in his pocket, and keeping herself from being scared as to wonder why he had the key of all people, she clutched her wrist for a moment happy to be free before starting at run. Shifting in midair as she leapt from the stairs grey paws would land her perfectly on the hardwood ground before she dashed off in the similar direction of Tobias. It would take awhile for her to get to the woods in the South, but eventually she would make it through the brush. The scent of Tobias and Tetradore was strong and as she slinked quietly towards their scent, her eyes lifted to see the two cats sitting in a tree. Using her telekinesis she felt for a particular round object, and once she got it she lifted it sky in the air and pegged Tobias in the head with a flat small rock. She did not throw it hard enough where he would get brusied or have a bleeding gushing wound, it was just a gentle 'pluck' as if a rock had the magical ability to fly and slam in his face. Raven felt fully justified.

While Tobias was experiencing the pain that came with a rock she walked out from the thicket calmly, acting indifferent as Tobias wailed. The sound of soft mews caught her attention and she stopped dead in her tracks not trusting herself to move even the slightest inch. Blue-grey pools narrowed when she caught the sight of Nadya and the two mewing small cubs and it caused nothing but sharp pain in her mind. She was torn in two, nature telling her to take two different paths. One part of her felt nothing but hate as she eyed the cubs, wanting nothing more than to eliminate them, both a threat to herself with Tobias. The other side of her felt the instant need to protect, because now that she was part of a pack it was part of her task to care for the young. Unsure with herself or what action would come if she got any closer she instantly sat down. Feeling her mind try to rip itself in two, she stayed silent and still, desperately wanting nothing more than to not be here right now. It was painful to see the cubs and moreso to see a particular individual that didn't want her around, that didn't accept her place, and ultimately didn't have any right in the pack because she was far too absent. Its hard to put trust and respect to a girl that never wanted her around in the first place.

I'd Rather Feel Pain Then Nothing At All
