"Wait... who are you?!" My captor yells.
Acting as if Warden didn't even exist, Aaron's expression changes from one of murderous intent to one of extreme worry and concern. Looking me up and down for injuries but without moving closer, he asks, "Are you alright?? Are you hurt?? He didn't touch you, did he?! I swear to god, if he touched a single hair on your body, I'll kill him!!" As he was saying all this, his expression and tone of voice was slowly changing from worry to that of boiling rage.
When I was about to say that I was fine, Warden snuck up behind him, raising a scythe used for farming. My eyes widen in horror as I scream, "AARON!!"
Aaron narrowed his eyes as he instantly dropped into a crouch, his left hand placed on the concrete in front of him, all the while sweeping his right leg around him. As Warden started falling towards him, Aaron's right hand reached behind him, gripped Warden's wrist, and threw him face first into the ground where Aaron had just leapt up from. Aaron was so swift that if I was human, all I would see would've been the end result of the burly man on the ground.
Seeing as Warden was knocked out, Aaron instantly grabs the key ring attached to the unconscious man's belt and walks over to my cage. Inserting a key marked "Cell 1", he successfully unlocks my cell and I run into his open arms.
Feeling his warmth, the full realization of everything that had happened finally hit: the fact that I was kidnapped, how close I was to being sold, how I would've never been able to see Aaron or roll around in the fields again. As I start sobbing, I could only repeat one thing, "Thank you." While Aaron stayed silent with his head buried in the crook of my neck and his hands rubbing my back, trying to calm us both down.
A few minutes later, we lean back from each other as the last of our nerves left and we're calm once again.
All of a sudden, laughter broke out from the reawakened man. "How touching! Let me guess, unknown mutual love?" He jeers as he starts confidently walking towards us.
"Get away!!" I scream as I morph into a fox. I quickly lunge at him and snap his neck with my powerful jaws, killing him. Realizing what I'd just done, I immediately morph back and face Aaron.
"You... you're a... a vulpin!" He stammer, completely shocked by the turn of events.
"We need to get out of here. We can talk about it when we get to my house." I say as urgently as I can while trying not to panic; the buyer will arrive any second. Aaron must be stunned to silence because all he manages to do is give me a blank nod.
