Time of Day: Afternoon
Warnings: Imminent animal cruelty?

It's no secret that Harvey hates this place. He hates bein' underground, constantly surrounded by a bunch of snot-nosed brats. And frankly, he's beginning to think that the experiment itself is a waste of time.

Luckily, that experiment was never his main interest down here in the first place. Harvey knocks back another shot and fires one of the new guns, his aim still quite steady despite the bottle at his side bein' half-empty. There's a burst of blue plasma and the smell of burnt hair, and across the room a slightly singed black rabbit bolts beneath a table with a shriek. Harvey chuckles and sets that gun aside, readying another of the experimental weapons. Say what you will about Nelson, but those weapons he comes up with are pretty damn great. And now someone's even left him a new target in his room - how thoughtful.

Liz allowed Aqua to take the gun, relieved that she took a nonvital shot, just getting the gun out of Harvey's hands. Gritting her teeth against the wound in her leg she pushed herself up to her feet, taking advantage of the distraction from Ammy and Aqua to step forward and punch Harvey in the face.

Between Ammy firmly holding on to Harvey's arm and Liz getting more than a little up close and personal with him, there was no way that Aqua was going to risk another shot. Not when she'd seen the sort of damage that even a glancing blow could cause.

Not that she was going to lower the gun even the slightest, of course. As long as there was still a reasonable reason to do so, she was going to go right on training the gun at Harvey.

"Do you have anything to say for yourself?"

Harvey released Aqua and staggered back beneath the force of Ammy's jump as the wolf sank her teeth into his arm, just hard enough that he could feel blood starting to soak through the fabric of his shirt. Though he would never have admitted it, the alcohol had slowed his reaction times; he didn't even manage to duck out of the way of Liz's punch, and the broad only had one workin' knee.

Somewhere between havin' a wolf clamped onto his arm and gettin' punched in the face, Harvey lost his balance. Blood was already beginning to seep from his nose as well as he hit the ground hard, wincing as his back met cold metal. He wasn't down for the count just yet, though. Face twisted in rage, he ignored Aqua entirely, unless drawing back his left arm to punch Amaterasu in the face counted as an answer.

Ouch, that punch looked like it hurt. And then Ammy felt that hurt herself when Harvey turned and punched her in the face. She let out a yelp, but since she already had a tight hold on his arm, it wasn't quite enough for her to let go completely.

She'd had just about enough of this. They couldn't risk Harvey trying to kill any of them any more.

Ammy clamped down even harder on his arm, jumped up and twisted around, and proceeded to flip Harvey completely over her head and slam him into the ground.

Whatever Harvey had been expecting, that certainly was not it. He barely had time to shut his eyes before he slammed down into the ground, instantly going limp in Ammy's grasp. All this over some stupid rabbit.

Liz winced as Harvey hit the floor. Okay, note to self; never piss off Amaterasu.

Okay, so he was down for the count. Now to keep him out of trouble. Liz looked around the laboratory quickly, finding a coil of rope hanging off the wall nearby and plucking it off the hook.

"Thanks guys," she said to Ammy and Aqua as she bent over Harvey, "I don't think I could've taken him on myself." she paused to check the singer's pulse, assuring herself that Ammy hadn't just snapped his neck, then carefully rolled him onto his stomach and started work tying his hands behind his back.

That was certainly one way to deal with the problem, and one that Aqua wouldn't have expected in the least. But there was no denying that it had been effective, and that was enough. She didn't put the gun down entirely just yet, but she did finally relax her hold on it until it was pointing at the ground.

No doubt they'd need to find something to do with that as well, but that was something that could be dealt with once Harvey had been properly tied up.

"I'm not sure any of us could have taken him on alone."

Amaterasu released Harvey's arm and shook her head out as soon as he went down. She really didn't like to do that, but in this case it seemed necessary. They would have to do something about this, because once Harvey came to again, he'd likely try even harder to get them.

At least it looked like Liz had begun tying him up. She sniffed around the lab until she located a couple more cords, picked them up, and brought them over for Aqua to use. The more they constrained him, the better.

With that underway, she also turned back towards where Frank was still hiding under the box...she'd have to find someplace safe to squirrel away Harvey's pet.

Liz wasn't the best knot-tyer in the world, but she did the best she could.

"This probably won't hold him forever. Is one of the cages in the animal lab empty?"

It would have to do, and even Aqua wasn't the greatest at it. She wasn't exactly bad at it, but as far as keeping someone tied up went, well. It would do, but who knew for how long.

"I think there might have been an empty one," she answered, after a moment of consideration.

A cage would probably be the best thing, as much as Ammy didn't like them. It seemed like they had to resort to a lot of unpleasant things just to deal with these evil versions of their friends. She began to sniff around the lab for a cage that looked big enough to actually hold a human.

Eventually, she discovered one back in the corner of the lab, partially covered in tarp. Strangely enough, the cage smelled kind of familiar...

She looked back towards Aqua and Liz, indicating that they could try to bring Harvey over here.

Finishing her last few knots, Liz looked over to where Ammy was sniffing around, and nodded.

"Alright. Can you get his legs?" she asked Aqua, starting to grab Harvey under the arms to lift him.

"This is starting to get insane. We should try to figure out who's still normal around here and try to make a plan to get out of this mess."

"Sure," Aqua answered as she moved to grab hold of Harvey's legs. It probably would have been more than a little undignified had he been conscious, but that's not currently a problem.

"I agree. Especially if he's any indication of what might happen otherwise."

Ammy watched as the two women carried the tied-up Harvey over to the cage, and placed him inside. This was going to be terribly awkward once he woke up again.

She gave them a look that said she agreed. They had to get out of this universe as soon as they could!

Harvey was definitely not the lightest thing around. Liz was thankful she had Aqua's help to get him in the cage, and that mister Finevoice was unconscious for this. With some effort, she lead the way over and they set him down on the old worn out blanket inside.

"Whew." Liz shook out her arms, catching her breath as started to shut the door, locking the cage up. She noted the ring of keys hanging nearby and promptly plucked it off its hook, sticking it in her pocket.

"I'll take first watch; I don't trust him not to try anything funny once he wakes up."

And she took a seat by Amaterasu, scratching her behind the ears. "How's the bunny?"

"Right," Aqua answered with a nod. Given what they'd seen him attempt, it was probably just as well that they not even bother to give him the benefit of doubt as far as these things went. If that meant keeping watch, then so be it.

That ear scratch was definitely welcome. It'd been awhile since she'd gotten one, and after that fight, it was nice to have a little comfort.

At the question, she walked back over to the box and nudged it up, where Frank was still waiting inside. She grabbed him up in her mouth before he could scurry away again, and brought him over to Liz and Aqua to show them. Aside from frightened out of its wits, the rabbit at least didn't look much worse for the wear.

Liz frowned sympathetically at the quivering rabbit, and offered her hands to take him from Amaterasu. His fur was a little singed, but otherwise he looked fine. She cuddled Frank close to her chest, petting his fur gently, then gave Ammy another scratch behind the ears.

"Do you think you can sniff out the others who aren't affected by this? I think it's time we got a plan together."

Aqua wasn't really certain that there'd be any way to tell who was and wasn't affected by scent alone. But then again, she certainly wasn't Amaterasu, and she supposed that if anyone would be able to tell it would probably be her.

"I agree," she offered, with a nod. "The sooner we can be out of here, the better."

Ammy looked a little bit skeptical...it may be possible, but she didn't want to trust her sense of smell alone in trying to figure out who was and wasn't evil. For the most part, everyone smelled the same as always...and that in turn made some of this even more awful. However, she was determined to help any way she could.

For starters, she did want to make sure she could hide away (or even release) some of the other animals trapped here.
