Madison Square Garden was unusually busy for a Tuesday, bustling with people going to and from the supply center. Kang had his wings pulled in, but he was a bit bigger than the average bozak, so said wings were pretty large.

Most of the inhabitants had gotten used to his presence, and didn't go out of their way to avoid him anymore. Because of this, he didn't think anything of the heavily built human, hood pulled low over his face, that brushed against one of his wingtips. Then, he felt something hard pressed against his lower back, and the human spoke, "You're coming with me, freak."

The smell of gunpowder also caught his attention, and he realized that whatever was at his back was about the size of the barrel of a handgun. That made him freeze; he didn't like guns at all. "Let me guess. CARP, right?"

"Shut up and come with me. Now."

Very slowly, he started edging one hand towards the dagger at his belt, and held back a snort, though he did begin to growl, very lowly, "You finally got tired of picking on women and children, decided to come after someone that could actually fight back. I'm impressed."

The human pressed the gun against him harder, hissing, "The little fucker and his brother are the reason the University got destroyed. It's their fault. Now shut up, you giant lizard! I should just shoot you right here and be done with it! It's because of offworlders like you that these monsters are here!"

"That would be a very bad idea, human. Trust me." Mentioning Fletcher wasn't very smart.

Another jab, and a sneer. "I could easily say you attacked me first. Look at you. You're a monster."

Kang inwardly seethed at the monster comment. Draconians had done some horrific things in the past, but he hadn't done anything in this city that warranted being attacked, "You're not the first human to say that about my kind. Can't say I miss that attitude." There. He took hold of the dagger hilt, but didn't pull it out of the sheath quite yet, hoping he could get the idiot to listen to him. "How about you put the gun away and leave, before you do something very stupid?"

"Fuck no!"

No one had noticed what was going on yet, and hopefully, it wouldn't escalate to a point where they would. The bozak growled a little louder, "If you value your life, human, you will walk away. Now."

The man snarled, digging the barrel into his side hard enough to begin to hurt, "Go ahead and try to kill me! I'll pull this trigger before you can do it!"

It was obvious the human was agitated, and if he did pull it there... well, there would be quite a few people nearby that would get injured, or possibly even killed by the resulting explosion.

"Last warning. You're lucky you got one at all."

"Go to hell!" There was a soft click as the hammer was cocked back on the gun, muffled by cloth.

Well. He'd been warned, and Kang didn't want to chance dying and injuring others in the Garden, so he moved as quickly as he could, pulling the dagger out of its sheath and knocking the man's feet out from under him with his tail.

The gun went off. He felt something hot pierce his side, and hissing in pain, turned around and drove the blade straight into his assailant's chest. A few people in the Garden screamed, throwing themselves down onto the ground in a panic, while a handful of others ducked behind the nearest object they could find; the smell of smoke hung heavy in the air.

The body tumbled to the ground, a glint of silver visible through a small, bullet-sized hole in the cloth of the hoodie. Kang straightened and checked his bleeding side, ignoring the varying looks of fear and surprise he was receiving, relieved to see that he'd only been grazed. Luckily, nobody else had been injured, and the bullet had buried itself into a wall.

This was going to be fun to explain.
