Father…
As I watched him being led through the streets, I felt my anger rise in me, welling up emotions came back to me, and I firmly gripped my sword from out of my inventory. I was trembling in fear, and rage, with my katana under my robe, prepared to kill him at any second.
"Look at him… Isn't he the one that [REDACTED] his daughter?"
Some lady nearby said that, and I started to regain my composure. I stashed my katana in my inventory, and disengaged from the crowd, to follow the knights to where they were taking him. I pulled up my hood to make sure I wasn't identified by him. Then, using wind magic, I leap from roof to roof, making sure I was not seen by anyone. I then got a look at one of the knight's faces as I got close enough, and sure enough, it was Madison.
As I thought about going down there to see her, and see if I could interrogate him, I decided it would be best to do that after he is already in the cell.
So, I will continue to follow them all the way.

(Madison POV)
*fwish*
I thought I heard something from the rooftops above… I then looked up and saw a blur jumping from one rooftop to another. I'll keep an eye out for it…
-[1 Hour Earlier]-
"He's finally been caught…"
They finally caught him trying to cross the border, he's been transported over the course of the last few weeks, and they're just a few kilometres from the city. I've already made my way over. Seeing him in chains brought me a feeling that I had long forgotten. I can't even recall what it is called…
~~~~~~~~~~~~
(Pearl POV)
They brought him to the jail, and I made my way down to the streets, watching as he was brought into one of the buildings, presumably one for interrogation.
Two knights were on watch duty, basically guarding the jail's main entrance. There is only one other entrance, a smaller one in the back, for the guards to use only.
I walked up to the jail, and one of the guards noticed me. He said, "Hold it right there, who are you? State your name."
I pulled down my hood, and stated my name.
"Pearl."
The guard looked at my face, and then seemed to remember something. He then asked me, "Are you that little one that Madison was talking about…?"
I responded, "Maybe?"
Talking to other people still sucks for me, I don't really like to, but I have to do it to move on.
I then said, "That man, the one that was just brought in, I was wondering if I would be able to see him?"
The guard responded, "Sorry, you will have to ask the person that is in charge of his jailing time."
I then asked, "Who exactly would that be?"
He answered, "Madison."
Ain't that just lucky? She will probably let me in.
I then hear from the inside of the jail, "Watch him! I'll be back in a moment!" Out came Madison, who saw me as soon as she exited the entrance. She ran up to me and gave me a hug, don't know why. She then said, "So… I presume you're here for him, huh?"
I nodded my head. She then told the guards, "I know I shouldn't really be doing this, but let her pass. She's with me."
That worked out quite well, didn't it? Almost as ifー Nah, nevermind.
Madison brought me into the jail, and down the rows of cells with inmates, to one of the farthest cells, cell 197-B. And there he was.
{For clarification, floor B is the second floor, both floor A and B have 200 cells each. Floor B is for more grave crimes, like r*pe, murder, and other things like that. Floor A is for lesser crimes like theft, and things such as fighting someone in the guild.}
Seeing him with chains shackled to his hands, legs, keeping him restrained to the ground, he can't run. He saw me, and the look on his face became grim.
I stayed calm, I've resolved myself on this decision. I can't kill him, but I'll make him feel the same fucking pain I did.
He stared at me, and I stared straight back, my eyes flaring with revenge. He looked scared when looking at Madison, but when he glanced at me, I could tell he wasn't all too afraid. Time to change that.
I motioned for Madison to lean down to me, then whispered to her, "Could you open the cell? It's time for some 'interrogation'."
She looked semi-worried, and said, "Are you sure?"
I nodded my head. She then got up, unlocked the door, and I entered inside. Father tried charging at me, but he was chained to the ground, so he couldn't get to me. Madison had turned around and left, going down to the first floor to watch over everything.
"Hahaha, look at your pathetic ass self. I feel bad for you, ya know? Being born, that is."
I started to toy with him. Getting closer, and closer, until he was just barely able to get in front of me. I then used {Magic Binding} to constrain his movements, and he was confused as to why he could not move.
He then yelled, "What the fuck?! Why can't I move!?"
I smirked and said, "It's because I'm using magic to constrain you, my own original spell. Now, shall we start the fun?"
His eyes filled with fear as I got closer to him. I took off my robe, and set it next to the cell door, as I did not want to get it covered in his blood. I then undid my self-made mana bandages, and showed him my left eye, which is a mana eye, but it looks just like before.
I then said, "Remember this? Now, time for some fun."
Kitsu, activate the [Semi-Lycanthropy] skill, would you?
<
After that, the mana inside of me, and my aura, started to change. And, just as Kai had explained, the fur did indeed grow, and my stats rose significantly. I felt twice as strong as I was before. It felt… good. I then pressed my newly formed claws against his cheek, and made a small cut across it.
I'm going to have some fun with this…
I then touched his arm and said, "Well then, shall I begin?"
He looked terrified, pathetic.
And, with one fell slash, I cut off his right arm. He screamed in pain, but I didn't want him to die just yet.
"{Heal}."
He cried, and cried, then he saw that his arm was back on. He looked at me, and I grabbed his arm again, and this time, with a bit of struggle, ripped it clean off of his body. He once again started howling in pain.
"{Heal}."
It was back to normal. I then grabbed his left leg, and slowly cut through it with my claws, making sure it was as painful as possible for him. I repeated this with his arms and legs for about an hour. And, I used my mana to make sure he did not bleed out. After he passed out, I completely removed everything from his body.
Whilst I was removing what he had on, I noticed that he had a tattoo of a dragon on his back… I know that dragon! It was on the mask of that guy that ran away after I killed his friends! I hope that lady is okay…
After about 30 minutes of waiting, he woke up.
"Huh…?" He looked around, seeing that I had removed everything from him, and that I had been sitting there, waiting.
I asked him, as he was fully waking up, "You're part of the Ryubian Dragon Gang, huh?" He snarled at me, and gave one hell of a bitch eye. I scratched his leg with my claws, and he said, "Yeah, s-so what if I am!?"
Once I need to, I might be able to use him to get into the gang's hideout, wherever it may be. Now, time to continue the torture.
I then pointed to his thing, and said, "You're pathetic, you know that, right?"
He looked down, and it began to…
Disgusted, I said, "Really? You're… Wow." It was actually quite big, like if I were to just slap an entire healthy eggplant on his body.
I then walked over to him, and constrained him to the floor with my [Magic Binding]. For what I was about to do, is something no man should ever feel, but he should. I grabbed it, and began to work it. He questioned, "What are you doing?" I squeezed it, harder and harder by the second.
After 10 seconds, it broke. Blood splattered everywhere, and he screamed like never before.
"{Heal}."
It was back to normal. I then kicked him there over, and over, and over, until I felt satisfied. It seems that it worked just as I hoped it would. Now he should fear me, and I don't feel bad at all for what I've done. I released the magic bindings, grabbed my robe, and headed out of the cell as he laid there, helplessly. I then turned around and said, "If I hear that you ever do anything bad again, next time, I won't reattach it. And, I'll be back soon enough, so behave."
I then called for Madison. I heard her making her way over, and she came to see the cell covered in blood, along with myself. She then saw him lying there, covered in blood, passed out.
After all of that, I felt better than before. Madison locked the cell, and she looked at me with a sort of fearful expression. I then calmed myself down, and told her, "I'm fine. I got what I came here for."
I released my [Semi-Lycanthropy] skill, and Madison asked about it. She said, "What… Fur…?"
I then told her, "I am able to use this skill due to unknown reasons."
A wave of fatigue hit me.
She then shrugged it off, and gave me a hug. She then whispered to me, "It's alright now, Pearl. You don't have to act strong anymore, I'm here for you, and he won't be able to hurt you ever again."
I tried to respond, but all that came out was, "I-I'm not…"
Then I cried, she just let me, holding me, comforting me.
