A whoosh of air left Mabel's lips as she was struck by his elbow. And right in the area that last opponent had torn the bottom of her shirt and left quite a wound, too. Ugh, this was not turning out to be a very good day.
Unlike Baron, she still was unable to figure out what kind of a mutation he had developed. So far all she had observed from him was speed. The blow to her abdomen was enough to knock her onto her rump, since she had already lost her footing when her lunge missed, once again.

"Are you enjoying yourself?" Baron mused with a tilted head, a hand finally reaching for one of the two daggers he had with him, one on each hip. However, after picking it up, he dropped it to the ground and kicked it to the female with his foot. "Brace yourself, and fight me." By this time, many of his raiding group members were watching with amusement.

"Not really," she replied in a bitter tone of voice, followed by a slight wince. "Am I supposed to be?" Glancing around at the group that had gathered to watch, her expression hardened a little. She was not going to be laughed at.
Grabbing hold of the hilt of the dagger that had been passed over to her, Mabel stood again, gripping it tightly. This time, she wanted him to make the first move.

As soon as she was on her feet again, Baron sprung into action. He ran at her as if to give a direct attack, however intentionally passed her. From that point he moved with his accelerated speed to keep himself behind her if she decided to turn to keep her front to him, and tauntingly sliced her arm before seeming to disappear to her opposite side, slicing her side in a similar fashion to begin a barrage of attacks. Baron excelled in the art of scaring those he fought with quick and repeated attacks, leaving one helpless if not dead before he got to the real fun. Of course, his intent still wasn't to kill her, therefore the slices were light ones, only proving that he was merely toying with her.

A hiss escaped Mabel as a result of every quick slash of the knife, and soon enough she began to dart out of the way of receiving a third. Turning in an attempt to face him, she lunged forward again, and this time got a hit in. The blade of her knife cut across his front. Not particularly deep however, since the movement was quick, but enough to bleed a bit and sting insistently enough. Her muscles were beginning to tire and burn, from both the physical activity of fighting another, and from the lack of sun. This was apparent when her movements began to become more sluggish than before. Definitely one of the bigger downsides of her mutation.

Rather than any sound of pain or annoyance, Baron laughed when feeling his own blade get in a slice to his front. "Excellent!" he praised, a wicked grin playing on his previously expressionless face. Those who had gathered around to watch chuckled and laughed, all knowing very well that Baron wasn't doing his best. When he did grin, his own fangs became evident after just having shown themselves.

Mabel stood back again, her grip on the dagger still so tight that the skin of her knuckles was beginning to whiten. This was truly one unpredictable fellow. She didn't think she liked the crowd he had with him too much, either. "What are you, their leader or something?"
Golden irises focused upon the fangs he bore, that he had finally chosen to reveal. They weren't anything like her own. So what was he?
Choosing to throw in another strike, the female mutant moved forward again. Her lunges weren't as swift now. With gritted teeth, she attempted to slash at Baron a second time.

Baron dodged as easily as ever, and planted his foot against her back when kicking her forward. Before she could hit the ground, however, he caught her arm and pulled her back to himself until he had secured her with her back against his chest. To prove that she had already lost, Baron allowed the tips of his fangs to embed into the skin of her neck, making sure she felt it, before pulling them out. Casually, he ran his tongue over the two puncture spots to get a taste of her blood. "Do you admit to defeat?" His breath tickled her ear when he spoke, his arms securely holding her.

Yelping a bit as she was shoved forward and then grabbed again, Mabel's body slumped. Gritting her teeth, she resisted the strong urge to send a fist into his face at the sensation of fangs grazing her neck and then breaking the skin.
But, there was nothing much she could do now, while in this position. Both the lack of energy and his advantage over her at the moment would make it unwise. So, as much as it disgusted her, she would have to surrender. "Yes, whatever." Her tone of voice made it clear that she wasn't all too happy with how this had ended, and her mind was already formulating some kind of new escape plan.

At her answer, Baron harshly sunk his fangs into her neck, retracting after what seemed to be forever. All of the members of his group that had been recruited from raided camps bore his mark of the two puncture wounds strategically placed so as not to be mistaken by any bite. "Bind her hands, then let's go," he ordered to the nearest member of his group, who quickly moved to tie the female's hands behind her back securely.
Before Baron could walk too far, Alex quickly called for him. When Baron looked to him, he was obviously puzzled to see the young girl standing beside him, holding his hand while rubbing her eyes with the other. "Why are you bringing me a child?" Alex frowned, glancing down at her. "I've never seen anything like her. I thought you'd be interested."
The young girl's blue eyes looked up to Baron when Alex nudged her closer to him, glancing to the arches of his dark wings that she could see over his shoulders while they were folded. Her own were very loosely folded so as not to get in the way, and could be easily seen. "Come here," Baron spoke, waiting expectantly. Hesitantly Felicity moved closer until she was standing in front of the much taller male, tilting her head back to look up to him. Baron crouched briefly so that he could pick the girl up and carry her against his hip as Alex had. "Do you have a name?"

Mabel was reluctant to give the other group member her hands, but they made short work of binding them behind her back. As she was lead over to the rest of the mutants whom were taken captive, her attention switched to the winged child whom was next to another, less-built male. So they hadn't harmed her after all, she noted, while one brow arched slightly at Baron's sudden change in demeanor. Then they were no longer in her field of vision, as she was lead away and pushed over to the small group of others that were in the same position as her.
[Still trying to decide when the best time for me to introduce another character should be. Maybe when they return to this group's camp. I assume there would logically be a few there to act as guards.]

Baron carried the girl, whose name he soon found was Felicity, as the group headed back to their camp. Those on horseback had already arrived at the raided camp to gather their loot, and soon began their journey back as well. By the time they arrived, Felicity had fallen asleep, her cheek resting against Baron's chest while the hand of the arm curled beneath her rump lightly held her wings in place so that they wouldn't fall limp and drag.
"Anyone hungry?" Alex grinned as he walked past the guards that were at the entrance the party traveled through, hurrying ahead.

Mabel wondered if they'd be given anything to eat as well, or if feeding members of this padticular camp was the only focus in mind. She wouldn't care too much if she had to skip a meal. The main thing on her mind at the moment was sleeping, because until daylight, she wouldn't have the energy to do anything else.
Fraener, a taller male who was on the muscular side and stood a bit over six foot, exited one tent to observe those who has returned. That, and he was curious to see if any captives were brought back. His hair was quite long, reaching his shoulders, and a mahogany shade of brown. Fraener had the strength to match a bear, which was exactly what he was - or, what mutation he had become. "Are all of them like us?" he inqured, directing his question towards Alex whom was the nearest to him at that moment. His sense of smell didn't seem to detect any humans.

"Yes. Baron isn't exactly a fan of humans at the moment, and you know he only takes what peaks his interest," Alex replied with a small shrug. "He must've found something he really liked though, since he took care to catch one of them specially. This trip, we found a lot of 'em though."
Baron walked to the middle of the camp where a fire pit was, those caught being led there as well, accompanied by just about the rest of the party who had went on the raid. Silence ensued for a short amount of time before Baron raised his voice, "Everyone will get their fair share. The sick and injured are granted first grabs, and no one goes for second grabs unless I say so." The crowd was obviously eager to eat, but Baron didn't yet grant that permission. "Someone will be assigned to each captive brought. If no one steps up, they will be killed."
With the captives lined up, Baron pointed towards the female he had fought before leaving, and made a finger motion for her to come closer. "I personally will take these two. Once everyone has been assigned, or is dead, we can eat."
Among those that had been captured, Eliana nervously shifted her weight. She was a slender, lithe young woman with red hair and pale skin, her eyes a brilliant green the color of fresh grass. With her mutation she found that she was as agile and flexible as ever, able to slip out of situations that others would have found difficult, and silent when moving. When left on her own there was a near majestic look about her, taunting one to come close only to flee, much like a fox. After having carefully listened to who appeared to be the leader's words, she couldn't help but tightly close her eyes in the fear of finding herself on order to be killed.

Mabel shifted uncomfortably at the mention of being killed if she wasn't assigned another mutant, just like everyone else in the captive group did. Visibly relieved when she was chosen - although it did dampen a bit when it was Baron she had been put with - she approached as bid. It was probably in her best interests to do as she was told for the moment.
Fraener watched each captive move towards the mutant that had chosen to claim them, his gaze eventually falling onto the remaining woman. He wasn't the cruelest of the group by any means, so he didn't really want to watch the woman be out to death. Stepping forward, he gestured for her to come over to where he stood, "I'll take her."
