OOC- Auto of mr general guy, hope you don't mind
BIC-
"Oh for god's sake, macho banter doesn't change from race to race. It's all the same," Yoshimitsu groaned, rubbing his temples. Time to take matters into his own hands. "Pyramew, step down. This idiot wont listen to anyone but a human, clearly." He stepped past Pyramew, drawing his sword as he went. He didn't hesitate even when the commander drew his hand gun and pointed at straight at his face.
"I've faced more threatening school children than you," he snapped. "At least they knew that messing with me was a bad move." He pointed the tip of his blade at the hand gun. Everything about him screamed confidence right now.
"You'll be lucky to still have brains in your skull if I pull the trigger," the commander retorted. Yoshimitsu glared at the gun.
"Alright then, fire, show me what you army men are capable of. Blow out the brains of a teenager who dared to threaten just how you run this shite little mob you're running," Yoshimitsu mocked, daring the commander to pull the trigger. Of course, the commander did.
Nothing happened.
"I told you," Yoshimitsu taunted. "The ammo in your gun is gone. Now, back to the point. You are going to listen to what the cat is saying and if you make any smart comments, you're going to find this sword stabbing some part of your body I haven't decided on yet."
"Pyramew, if you will."

OOC: Completely fine. You kept him right in character.
BIC: "Thank you, Yoshimitsu," Pyramew said, his voice still hard. The cat was pissed, and he wasn't about to hold that back. He directed his voice towards the soldiers in front of him. "Now, if you will keep quiet for just a few minutes, I will explain what's really going on here. If you insist on maintaining this false bravado and being smart with us, well, let's just say it'll be the last mistake you ever make."
Pyramew took several loud, deep breaths, attempting to calm himself. It only partly worked. "First off, you will stop calling me and my kind 'cat creatures'. We are as sentient and sapient as you humans are. The closest translation for our race's name for ourselves is 'Magicats'. Second, while the ones who have been causing trouble around here are Magicats, they are the descendants of exiles from the Magicat homeland. Their actions, and their attitude towards humans, are not typical of Magicats."
"Not typical of Magicats..." the commander muttered loudly. "What are you, a politician?"
Pyramew put one hand up near his face, simultaneously signaling Yoshimitsu not to attack and forming a fireball in front of the raised hand. "I told you, any smart remarks and you wouldn't live to regret it. I'll let that one slide. Do not make me regret that decision." With that, Pyramew extinguished the fireball, and continued. "I am here because I predict that, within a few months, it will no longer be possible to avoid contact with humans. If things continue as they are, this will quickly lead to war."
"So first you say that these... Magicats... we're after are renegades, then you say that your people and ours are in for a war? I fail to see where the 'renegade' part comes in."
"I am here without the permission of my own people. They believed that they could simply continue their policy of non-contact. I left the Magicat homelands and sought contact with humans because I believe that to be impossible, and because I hope to avoid that war." Pyramew put an emphasized snarl into his voice as he continued. "If your response, and the responses I have seen from the humans I have encountered so far, are any indication, then I gave your race too much credit, in which case my only option will be to seek out the... 'renegades', enlist their help, and attempt to prepare my people for war."
Pyramew could see that the commander was making every bit as much of an effort to keep his cool as Pyramew himself was. "You must understand, these other Magicats have been attacking the towns around here for some time, and they never spoke to us. As far as we knew, your kind really were just savage creatures, if a bit smarter and more powerful than your average creature. When my men contacted me and told me that you had not only spoken, but demanded to meet with me, I didn't know what to think."
"They probably didn't know your language. If they had tried to talk to you in our native tongue, you would've just heard the kind of sounds you would expect from a wild cat."
The commander gasped. "You... you learned our language? You seem to speak so well."
"Not exactly. Actually, I have a device, translating between my tongue and yours. I don't think I could make the sounds of your language myself."
The commander seemed to mull over that for a moment, then cleared his throat. "So, what do we do now?"
"Now? Well, that depends. One way or another, I will be seeking out the renegades. What I will do if and when I find them is yet to be decided. I think it's already fairly clear what options I will be choosing from. As to which I will ultimately choose, that depends on you. Now, I am sure you have superiors. Contact them, and relay what I have told you. Meanwhile, I believe I will need to conference with my... allies here."
Pyramew stepped back, not taking his eyes off of the military people for a second. He turned his head slightly towards Pablo. "So, what now?" he asked, keeping his voice low. "You probably have a more complete outside perspective of humans than I do. What do you think will happen next, and what should my next move be?"

"This is a bad move, Pyramew," Yoshimitsu said bluntly, taking a drag on his cigarette. "You've just seen what the official military around here are willing to do, and unless something's changed since I last noticed, the higher-ups will have exactly the same response as this moron. We basically have very few options."
Yoshimitsu paused, sheathing his sword and focusing for a moment. "Bahamut, has there been anything I've missed?" He asked his summon, using their pseudo-telepathic link. "As far as I have seen, no," Bahamut replied. "Alright, keep an eye out. You've heard everything, right?" "Yes." "Thoughts?" "This is a messy situation. As you've already said, this man's superiors are likely to be more hostile than he was. I know what your course of action would be, and it has some grounds, but it's also still likely to initiate a war." "How's that work?" "You have apparently allied yourself with the race in question. Your actions will be seen as such, and war may be declared on the Magicats." "God I hate the military." Bahamut just chuckled at this comment.
"Okay. I've just had a chat with Bahamut," Yoshimitsu said. "My idea would be to somehow incapacitate or kill these guys so this message never gets relayed, then to seek out these renegades and deal with them, but Bahamut says that's likely to start a war between the two races." Yoshimitsu paused again to take another drag on his cigarette, his brow furrowed as he thought. "There's no way the military will accept this proposition. We need to keep them out of the way while we deal with the renegades. I have a few ideas, but they're not that likely to work unless we do them properly." Yoshimitsu shrugged and stubbed out his cigarette, allowing for Pyramew's or Pablo's input.
"Oh, and Pyramew, when this is over, I'll teach you a thing or two about elemental control if you want," Yoshimitsu offered.

"There's alway the option of say..." Pablo, who had been silently meditating to a side until this point, stepped back towards Pyramew.
"We can force them to listen to us. Take the highest ranking member of theirs captive, and take them along on the hunt," Pablo twirled his falchion with one hand, the blade glowing a shade of orange. He shrugged slightly, his entire shell heaving with the gesture.
"If he thinks he can't believe us when he sees what we're up to with his own eyes, he'd be a paranoid fool. It's not as if the three of us weren't powerful enough to totally waste the region if we really wanted to cause harm. Why bother with all of this, when just chopping all of the fools up would save us time?"
"Of course, I think that it would only be fair if we were to offer them a timetable that they could use. Ask them to give us two days, and if we can't find anything, then they can take us captive. I'm willing to go along with those odds."

"No offense or anything, but I'm not too keen on the idea of being held prisoner when I could break out pretty damn easily," Yoshimitsu said, running a finger over the hilt of his blade. "As long as you two don't mind me making a mess of wherever they're holding us, I'm game."
OOC- Short post ahoooy
