Description This is kinda how I planned on ending Jayden's trip to the past(sorta putting all her cards on the table by the end so to speak)

Veejay already knows Jayden at this point is a sweet and gentle caring kid, and during a scuffle, Jayden managed to successfully fend off multiple attackers with fluently odd movements that looked like she was just trying to avoid being attacked and that everything she did was an accident.

Veejay could tell by her movements that everything she did was intentional, and suspected she was a lot more fierce than she was acting like. She doesn't know the half of it until Nack shoots Jayden's future father, Base at a joint Wolfpack/Echidnaen blood ritual that is supposed to bind Base to Veejay's family by blood. So this was part of how I planned to end Jayden's vacation, and probably not entirely canon. XD

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Inside an old abandoned theatre somewhere between Downunda and the Great Forest, a ritual rarely seen was beginning.

Veejay and Base stood across from eachother, each had a slit in their hand and cheek, on their right hands, and on their right cheek.

The ritual had begun, Base who hadn't had a family save for his foster one; Veejay had decided to adopt him as her brother, and Antony D'Callais; Veejay's advisor had suggested the Echidnaen Family Blood Rite. Base only knew the Wolfpack's version of the Blood Rite.

Each was incredibly similar, but different slightly; the echidna's blood right, their hands were cut and the two joining families would join their right hands and recite the ritual to symbolize trust and honor. With the Wolfpack, it was their cheek to symbolize closeness and family bonding.

They decided to combine the two rituals in the end. The two had brought their closest as witnesses to the ritual. For Base, his foster family came, consisting of Sir Charles Hedgehog and Rosie the Chipmunk. For Veejay, Antony and Jayden had come, and dragged along Windy, the village medic. Jayden had come from the future, and had done no end of torturing Veejay since arrival, but Veejay had grown fond of the young hedgehog despite it all.

Veejay looked to her future niece, Jayden looked excited, almost like she might shoot out of her boots at any moment, an energy that never seemed to leave the child.

Base and Veejay took a step toward eachother and extended their hands, linking their thumbs and bringing their elbows to meet.

Veejay began,"Brother, my brother."

Base followed,"Sister, my sister."

The two spoke in unison as the ritual went.

In family bonds lie,
By Earth and by Sky,
O'er Oceans and Seas,
By Mountains and Trees,
On Mobius we share,
A family-bond where,
I vow you I protect,
With love and respect.

The two drew closer and hugged, the blood of their cheeks meeting as had their hands, and they continued the other half of the ritual.

O' Sibling, by blood we are now,
Family by vow,
Allies throughout,
Through trust and in doubt,
I ne'er shall waver my alliegance,
By you I shall stand,
For now and always we shall be,
Family.

The two stepped back from eachother and released their hand's grip. The silence was of awe, a rare person ever saw either ritual. Though the silence was soon broken by Jayden crying.

"That was...sniff...SO BEAUTIFUL!"

The two didn't know that somewhere inside the theatre, another watcher lurked. Nack the Weasel hid in a windowed balcony, a rifle in his hands, a laser sighted scope attached, he aimed it slowly bringing Veejay into his sights. Nack had always had a score to settle with Veejay, as they'd met in a previous scuffle, and Veejay had made a fool of him, had hurt him, had MAULED him. He hated her for it, and when a job had come up by an unknown source to attack her, he almost leapt at the opportunity.

Here she was, in his sights, he'd have his vengeance, here and now, and nothing with get in his way. His finger eased onto the trigger, savoring every second; not a day went by he didn't think about killing Veejay, though she was only one of many of his many, daily murder fantasies, today he felt he'd have at least this one.

He grinned and looked down the sight, turning on the red dot,"So long, you cu-"

Base looked up to a dimly lit red light, it only took him a second to register what it was,"VEEJAY!"

He rushed forward and shoved her backwards off the stage they were standing on.

Everything seemed to happen in an instant, Veejay falling into Jayden's waiting arms, the sound of a rifle, and Base went backwards and landed on his back on the stage. He wasn't moving.

Windy had taken no time getting to the stage to try and give him medical attention, Charles and Rosie were by her side, Charles hoisted Base over his shoulder. Antony pointed to the source of the gunshot.

Veejay ran towards the balcony and clawed her way up the way, blind bloody fury bringing her up the wall as quick as she could, she hadn't even noticed Jayden had disappeared again.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nack was trudging down the stairs,"I fucked that up so bad! DAMMIT! That fucking blue bastard had to see the-"

CRACK! Nack felt a blow land on his face, he was hoisted off the ground and was being charged back up the stairs towards the wooden door.

"RRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAUGH!"

CRASH! He went sailing through the door without catching a glimpse of his attacker, he landed on the ground with a skid, he wiped blood from his mouth where he'd been punched.

Jayden stepped through the broken door, she growled,"You worm...HOW DARE YOU?!"

Nack reached for his revolver, it had been dropped in the toss,"Listen you cow, I don't know who you are but-"

Nack lunged for his revolver and was greeted by a very hard kick to the chops, he went up, felt a hand grab his neck, and thrust him towards the balcony window, he collided hard with the wood frame, it cracked, he straightened up and looked.

Veejay stood, her fists clenched so tightly blood dripped to the floor, Jayden standing right next to her; both adopted the same stance, and then threw the same attack.

Nack's eyes went wide,"Fu-"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Like I said, probably not canon-canon, but hell, it's a fun read.

Detail: I'd use another word than "sick" for Nack's murder fantasies, since we're halfway into his perspective. He would probably call them something else, and the more flattering that word is, the sicker we'll feel he is, so it'll work for the feel in the end.
Nice and clear visuals though, that's something I always have trouble with.

Yeah, you have a point there, though there's nothing I can really put that works, so I just put "many, daily" there instead.

Thanks. :3

Oh dude...dude, I really want to write something that preludes this, why Nack hates her so much, what Nack did to deserve that hatred and then some.
Oh god, am I inspired now XD! It would explain a lot of things about Vee-Jay, and how Nack fuelled some of that inner rage of hers, along with a few others...and who it was that wanted Vee-Jay dead.

This actually gives me more inspiration than I know what to do with, and I'm making the most of it FER SURE
*proinks off to continue her writings*

Well I look forward to finding out what happened, though I think the sudden burst of anger is mostly in the form of,"Hey, you just completed a sacred ritual" BLAM "I think I may have just cancelled it. Post finish."

As for the who and why, I'm certain there's plenty of assholes gunning for Veejay's spot at top dog and hate her with a passion enough to want her dead. Only your mind will say, and I look forward to the results. :3
