“What,” Summer inquired, “makes you think I could be kept in jail, even assuming they got me that far?” She turned the car sharply, cutting across the turn just under the red light. “But fine. We’ll do it your way. This time.” Another flickering glance, green eyes sharp, and she added, “If you plan to keep spreading us among the humans, you might want to check that the ones you choose are actually human.”
“Maybe they can’t but that’s not the point. Not getting caught is the main objective here.” The Nogitsune cast a side glance over at the other girl and shook her head. “Well, I’m glad you’ve decided to see the light. And anyway, the ones who are not so human have a little more power. I had hoped it would also mean more self control.”
“It’s not as much fun if they don’t catch us. I want betrayal, rage, not just confusion,” Summer muttered, sulkily. “She let me in because she was tired of control. Tired of hiding, of being afraid, of not taking risks. I’m hardly having to fight her at all.” A truly ugly smile curved her mouth. “We’re a unit, unlike you and your fragile human.”
