Salem has been left with an assignment while Sabrina sees to her boys, and to her friends. Look after Marcus and the house. They'd both known the city streets to be unsafe for a black cat, and Salem has been doing his job properly, up until the moment Marcus (predictably, he will inform Sabrina) loses his mind over the just-friend.

So now Salem prowls the hallways of this castle, darting ahead and then trotting back to make sure Marcus and Trass follow. And then a certain voice, low and in pain, catches his ears and he runs, verifying the prisoner's identity before turning to tell Marcus, settling for a rather loud meow.

Once he has both charges following, Salem leads them to a cell, where he darts between the bars and goes to settle against a bleeding, bruised Dan, who shivers in the cold, both from lack of shirt and the huge chain keeping him at the wall.
