Michael was honestly sort of stunned that this whole little stunt had worked out. For the most part, he had assumed that at best he would miss, and Moth would take off and he would have to bolt before he got his ass kicked. Absolute worst case scenario, someone was waiting in the shadows and he was about to get his ass handed to him anyways, regardless of what was going on in his head. Thankfully for him, neither of those turned out to be true, and Moth crumpled easily to the ground in front of him, nothing but a sharp gasp of surprise leaving her before she was knocked unconscious. Michael found himself wincing a little at the noise of her head colliding with the roots, and the bobcat nosed timidly at her skull, worried that he had killed her or something. Thankfully he didn't come back with any blood when he pulled his muzzle away, which was a good sign. He just wanted to cause some trouble, not kill anybody. He didn't do that unless somebody had seriously fucking wronged him, or was trying to keep him from getting something. Moth had done neither of those things, so once he was sure she wasn't seriously injured, he gripped her scruff carefully in his jaws, lifting her onto his back.
She was a little heavy for his small frame – especially with the weight of a few developing kits, although he had no idea about that – so it took him a couple of seconds to adjust to where he could quickly flee from Tanglewood territory, back towards the Pitt. His pawsteps were swift and light, and he took especially careful looks around, just to make sure that nobody was following him as he vanished off into the loner lands. He still had little idea of what he was going to do with Moth once he got back to the Pitt – he was hardly the torturing type – or what he was going to demand in exchange for her back, but only one thing was really for sure. Moth was going to be stuck in the Pitt for a while, for better or worse.
( out!! this thread is now open to everyone, and Moth is considered to be missing/trapped in the Pitt )
