    Meela’s MUMU. ;u;

    1. Sofy

      I wouldn’t want to run into her in a dark alley o3o

      1. Sarastic

        ..Or even a bright alley ;u; *hit*

        1. Sofy

          Sounds like another good idea.

        2. Stranger

          Mhm. o3o

        3. DiamondSnake

          Lol, same here O3O

      2. SotiCoto

      omfg
      I’m from Germany and “Mumu” means Pussy in a childisch way.

      Her eyes are forbidding o_o

      1. Sofy

        Never heard that one. I looked at it saying Muhmuh

        1. Alex

          What did you use? Google translator? If so, it was a bad idea.
          Because “Muh” is the sound cows are making – the German “Moo”.

          But nevermind.

    3. ayashi

      Haha, Feral is like ;[

      1. Cenica

        Love that face! XD

  2. Sky

    Sounds like a very interesting romance story..! XD

    1. Mary

      One wonders if the entire line has to be eradicated before the shame of her failure is erased.

      1. VickyLynn

        O_O didn’t think of that…

  3. dragonia

    Gotta love that last panel. Meela is so cute on this page. xD

  4. Vixen

    …Am I the only one who thinks of Korin when they look at Jira?

    1. Alva

      No, me too!
      Maybe brother and sister.. than Meela’s Mom would be Feral’s cousin ^^

  5. Sarastic

    I just ADORE the expressions in the last panel~ And wow I laughed a bit at this XD Love it <3

  6. ajbluesox

    2. arthour

      Holland’s face is always priceless XD

      1. Velincia

        This is true. But Feral’s face rivals it today.

      2. Lislet

        Bahaha, true story! Holland’s face is always priceless. XD

    WUT A BOUNTY HUNTER AND A TARGET- NO WAAAI

    Lovely page guys. 8D Keep it up.
    Thanks for the glimpse at her mother. 8)
    I like how open she is about talking about her family too.

  14. Moon

    Oh God. XDDD

    Feral and Holland’s faces!

    1. DiamondSnake

      lol yeah, that’s the highlight of this page XD And everyone’s commenting ’bout it! :P Plus, Holland’s eyes are popping outta their sockets O-O

  15. Lurockia

    And now we have a basic idea of what Meela’s going to look like when she grows up. :D

  16. Mayaluna VanSentinel

    Shit is about to go down, I tell you! Holland’s face on the last panel says it all. There’s NO FRIGGIN’ WAY IN HELL he’s gonna live it down on Feral. Now every female target will be a week of teasing.

  17. Raize Kayden

    I shouldn’t read it now!! now i have to wait until next friday D::::

    but i love feral’s face in the last panel. he’s like ‘Wtf? O.o’
    haha cuuuuuuuuuuuute <3

  18. VelkynKarma

    I feel like maybe Meela gave away a little too much here >>;

    But the expressions in that last panel are absolutely priceless!

    ~VelkynKarma

  19. The 9. Street of Em's

    I bet SHE’S half demon!!

    1. Stevie

      I was just thinking that “blue eyed devil”

      1. S.H.

        Hehehe, yeah!:D

  20. S.H.

    Hey! Check your inbox:) I’ve sent you an email:)

  21. Someone who loves this comic

    the last two panels are priceless!!!! >:3

  22. IrondragonMetals

    I just noticed Feral has a different back pack. what happened to his old one i’m wondering?

  23. Swiftsnowpack

    Well thats awkward…… Having you mom be a bounty hunter and you dad being her target………. O~o

  24. Bluerosebud

    I really, really love Holland’s “WHAT!?” reactions! And Meela’s mother has a great character design! And Feral, just listening with semi-indifference.

    “Blue-eyed devil?” An eye color trait rare in lupians? Ah? Ah? Demon in lupian form? (Sorry if you’re sick of this theory.)

  25. Arthwaya

    Ahh! Feral’s face! It’s priceless!

  26. PigeonSimba

    Feral’s like, “Well, that’s not very professional.”

    1. Vicky

      XD… then again, he’s rather “friendly” with Piper who was a previous target of his ;P

      1. Sofy

        Indeed I thought the same thing XDD

    2. Robyn

      Haha! That describes him perfectly!

  27. Melanu

    Feral is rocking long hair!!! Holland is super suave and Meela’s cheery disposition gets you through the worst of days!!!!!

  28. NyraWolf

    Haha, awesome ^^

  29. Kallona

    If you ask me, Meela is billion zillion times prettier than her mom o,o
    I just don’t find her mom beautiful, personally. But that’s okay, because Meela is so adorably cute and pretty and the main character anyway~ c:

    1. Mirza

      Same here. Meela is much prettier than her mother!

    2. YouDon'tKnowMe

      XD thank goodness I’m not the only one that thinks that~

      1. DiamondSnake

        Lol same ‘ere, I thought that I was the only one! *wiped away sweat* Phew, I’m not alone anymooooooorrrree! :D Well, actually, if you dudes thought the same thing then I never WAS alone <.< Confuuuusing… UNLESS I looked at the comic page before you guys… which I highly doubt.

  30. LokiWolf

    oh wow her mother was so pretty.. You can so see that Meela, already as pretty as she is will only get ten times prettier the older she gets. Wow
    I love the top shot of her and her mother together. Priceless..

  31. YouDon'tKnowMe

    Hm… I think I like Meela’s father! XD It takes great endurance and vigor to withstand a deathly onslaught from such a fine women as her mummy!! XD Admiration for the lot I say~ : P

  32. Lauren

    Man, does she look fierce… doesn’t really look the “mommy” type either, but what do I know? Don’t judge a book… :D
    ahaha, Feral’s face in the last panel made me laugh!

  33. shadowwolf

    wait, WHAT

  34. Alena

    Nice to see Meela happy.

  35. Riverfox237

    Feral’s not exactly one to talk – er, make facial expressions, I mean; he’s obviously got a relationship of some sort going with one of HIS targets. *eyes the fox* I mean really.

    But yes, their faces in the last panel are classic. XD

  36. Mirza

    Don’t you think that beads on Meela’s mother neck are similiar to those on Feeral’s ears? If you don’t know what I’m saying just look at the top of this page where’s placed banner.

    1. RaikoGirl

      I don’t think that the beads are an indication of anything. They seem to be a pretty common form of jewelry in that particular area.

      It’s like thinking anyone and everyone who wears same thing similar to you is somehow a long lost relative or something.

      “Omg! That girl has the same shirt as me, I always knew that I had a long lost sister!”

      1. Mirza

        Maybe… but on the other hand if you look through the whole archive, you’ll see, that only Meela’s mother and Feral are wearing small, colorful beads, no one else. In few first pages Meela also have beads, but they’re not the same. And okay, Jyaku also have some, but they’re completely different XD
        Moreover, look at Meela’s mother earrings and look at Korin’s earrings:
        https://www.straysonline.com/2010/02/page-120/
        https://www.straysonline.com/2010/02/page-121/
        Also notice, that Feral wears similiar earrings to this which his father had. Maybe it’s important clue? Because for me, Meela’s mother is similiar to Korin. Maybe she’s her daughter…? Who knows…
        Time will show.

  37. goosermon

    wait what i thought the white-haired girl was her mom? and her name wasn’t jira. i’m confused

    1. Etherean Light

      That was Yuen’s (aka Feral) mom.

    2. Crookshanks

      You must mean Avela . No . She’s Feral’s mother

  38. JaakunaOkamiNo

    LMAO, Feral’s and Holland’s face x’D

  39. JaakunaOkamiNo

    And Meela’s father being a target make’s since that he was killed.. Maybe the reason her brother was killed is because he was the kid of a ‘wanted’ man. Same for Meela.
    (Just a guess .w. )

  40. Blue-Starr

    Feral’s thoughts: “…I give up. I don’t know WHAT to think anymore.” xD

  41. Leah

    lol just more and more “WHAT!?”‘s keep coming out of hollands mouth xDDD

  42. Paine

    Does anyone else wonder, where is Piper at this moment?

    1. KaelinaLuvsLomaris

      Yeah, I was wondering that a few pages back.

    2. Amanda

      Wel, it was said before that she basically came and went as she pleased, but usually was away robbing “gullible guys,” so they probably just left on this trip when she was away.

  43. 'Pawprints

    Oh wow, isn’t that romantic. xD I love how you always manage to throw in plot twists that I never seem to expect, like how Meela’s mom was a bounty hunter.

  44. DreamBoyMal

    Whoa!

    She…looks awfully familiar…

    Coincidence or not, she sure does bear a strong resemblance to Korin…and I’ll admit the “Blue-Eyed Devil” bit does seem to be alluding to something. As to what, though, there’s no telling.

    All of a sudden, there are a TON of possibilities concerning how the story of Meela’s parents ties into everything,…but something very, very dark is clearly lying at the root of her and her family’s past.

    With only one more book left after this one, I can’t help but expect a dramatic mood shift in the future…and while I can’t wait to learn what’s really going on here, I have a feeling the characters will be…decidedly less excited. XD

  45. Robyn

    Poor Feral he’s like “What kind of family are you FROM, kid?!”

  46. Yuenferal

    Holland: WHAT!? O.O
    Feral: … -.-

  47. Alvara101/Panda

    three letters or this page:
    L – O – L

  48. wildgirl

    Lol the look on Holland’s face is PRICELESS!! XD meela’s parents seem to have met in a similar way to how Feral an Piper met each other…????? Lol

  49. Allen

    Link ? I see link in this page.

  50. Moo.

    Meela’s hair looks somewhat lighter than her mum’s :/

  51. Fishybadger

    Ah meela, so cheery as always :3

  52. Icesky

    I love the idea of Jira and Meela’s father meeting in such circumstances! And Feral’s face in the last pannel xD

  53. Pie

    Oh Holland, bless your silly face. I love that Meela has gotten him totally stunned twice within a few pages. XD

  54. Mr.Strange Tiger

    Five gold coin says feral is the father!

    1. SangreWolf456

      o-o Meela’s dad is dead. It even showed that she saw that her father dead. Also Feral is in his early thirties, and if Meela was his daughter he would at least be in his mid- or late thirties by then. :I Cause Meela is 12 going on thirteen pretty soon.

  55. Wolpy

    Feral’s face is so saying “what the F?” LOL

  56. purpleheart3000

    My thoughts: “Holland, you’re gaping… again. And Feral, you’ve got the wtf face… AGAIN. Meela, you sure can bring out the funny sides of the two toughest guys in this comic”!

  57. SigmaKedavra

    I love Holland’s WTF face xD

  58. Tara

    It can’t possibly be comfortable fighting or doing any sort of exercise really with those big breasts her mom has. x_x

  59. Draconickitty

    hahaha omg i love meela <3

    and how her father was her mothers target i have two OCs in my own comic that has that situation XD

    my char Scythe is an assassin and needed to kill this young female Rin but fell in love with his target instead XDD

    1. Amanda

      I like the sound of your comic! :D Do you have it online?

      I had a similar story idea, but like 99% of my story ideas, it has remained firmly planted in my brain, never to make it to paper/screen outside of a couple images. Only mine was a ninja and a samurai clan’s princess. It’s a fun concept to work with!

  60. Viv

    wait a min, i THOUGHT her mom’s name was Aveela, and she wasn’t a bounty hunter….now I’m confused :/

    1. KaelinaLuvsLomaris

      That was Feral’s mother.

      1. Ashen

        Thanks for clarifying that. I was confused myself for a bit.

        This is getting interesting, as usual. Hope to see character concept sheets in the future! <3

  61. KaelinaLuvsLomaris

    Feral’s face in the last panel is kind of disbelieving…. But I love the last panel.
    Meela is much more pretty than her mother. I personally don’t care for her mother’s looks.

  62. Asj

    I thought her eyes seemed to stand out, even before he mentioned blue eyes were rare. She’s pretty. ^_^ It’s too bad Meela wasn’t able to grow up with her. :(
    I kind of wondered if he’d know who she was (and thus maybe why Meela and her brother were on the run), but he doesn’t seem to recognize the name or description.
    Maybe her mother fell in love with her father when she was hunting him, and then left the business or something. Kind of odd in a way, though… Didn’t Meela say her mother was after the bad guys? So wouldn’t that mean her father was a criminal? By that smile, though, Meela doesn’t seem to think so. But, I think Meela likes seeing them surprised from not knowing the whole story. I like doing that to people.

    1. Bluerosebud

      I’m guessing that Meela’s father was framed for something and that Jira found out the mistake before turning him in. We’ll likely see next page.

  63. Gigi

    Oh, Meela, never before has romance and danger been put together in such a funny way.

  64. Shellysangel

    This is getting so interesting! What a pretty mom she had

  65. WOFS

    I have an idea for a sequel but what can I offer?

  66. Amanda

    Been following the comic for a while but never commented until today.

    Just wanted to say that it’s beautiful and I love it! :D Eagerly awaiting the next page! ^___^

  67. TheLoneDucky

    Ha! I love the last panel x}

  68. Shinjite Florana

    Love at first attept to kill. ^-^

  69. 13thprotector

    Well, nice little bit of her past :)

  70. Aneko

    If you cover half of Feral’s face in the last panel, he looks surprised. Then if you cover the other side, he looks angry…@_@

    1. Wolfeth

      That is exactly what I did when I was trying to figure out how he felt.. Then I realized he was simply surprised/skeptical xD

  71. Keenawolfwoman

    ROFLMAO!! Oh, Meela…

  72. thelightedDarkness

    Know what I just realized…….

    Mal, means “bad” in French, I do believe. Slap me if I’m wrong, please.

    1. thelightedDarkness

      Wait, no it doesn’t… Had an idiot moment there. Nobody slap me, hush.

      1. Turska

        Yes it does, seems like your saved for this time. :3

      2. Neveko

        It was originally Latin. You see it in English words as an affix: malnourished, malodorous, etc. English borrows heavily from Latin, and French is a Romantic language, meaning it is based off Latin. It means bad, yes. French? Not necessarily.

    2. Alva

      and “Holland” is a part of the netherlands and Ferals surname “Heiss” means hot in german :D

  73. Safiyah

    I get the feeling that Meela’s father was kinda bad, and Jira was meant to kill him but then she fell in love and decided to protect him so then SHE was killed (after having 3 kids) and then the bounty hunters went after the whole family.

    LOL I have no idea…

    1. Wolfrider

      Umm don’t you mean 2 kids? Because as far as I know she only had Tannor and Meela.

      1. Griffin

        Tannor had a twin, Conner. (There’s a sketch of him under “Rough Works” in the Gallery link at top, with Tannor, third sketch over).

      2. Safiyah

        What Griffin said.

        Also, when Meela was getting her hair cut I think, Tannor said something like “I know you miss Daddy and Connor”.

    2. b0bcat16

      you know that sounds pretty much like what i was thinking.

  74. Wolfeth

    AHAHA! Feral’s face! He’s all “..say whaat?”

    1. Ketrina

      More like his face is saying “Well that explains a lot”.

  75. Ketrina

    Hmm…. Makes me wonder if Meela and Tannor have the same father now. Jira… it’s pretty ^^

  76. Valten

    If she grows up to look anything like her mother, she will probably break some hearts.

  77. Emergency_fan_51

    What is it with bounty hunters and beads? O.o

  78. chibidoll

    Just a question… Do you think the beads might be a kill-counting system? The more beads, the more dead targets?

  79. Kelardry

    I really like this webcomic. Sorry I didn’t comment earlier, I keep meaning to and this was my first chance.
    Anyway, I love the artwork, characters, and story. Keep up the great work!

    One thing that sort of bugs me on this page, I’m not sure if you care, but in the panel where Jira’s punching, she isn’t punching right. I’m a martial arts student, and you almost always punch toward the center, not straight out from the shoulder. If you punch straight out, you either miss their head if that’s what your punching at, or you hit somewhere other than along the center line, which means that their bodies rotate and take away most of the punches power. Also, the other hand is normally drawn back to the bottom of the ribs.

    Sorry if that was sort of rant-y or gave the wrong impression. I’m not trying to be mean or anything, but hand gestures, facial expressions, and tone of voice don’t show up in text, so I can’t be sure. I probably wouldn’t even have noticed if my sensei didn’t point out stuff like that all the time.

    Also, I absolutely love the background on this. Fall is one of my favorite seasons, and the hazy but defined way you draw the trees is very in-tune with the way I think about it.

  80. Charlie

    Meela’s mum and dad are gorgeous !!
    I love the designs for them. ^.^

    I’m so happy to finally see this side of her life. :D

  81. ILUVMEELA&Co.

    Man, I did not see that one coming. Everything in this comic is unpredictable! And why is Feral making that face? He’s doing the exact same thing! Hypocrit… I hope I spelled that right.

  82. Heyoceama

    This sounds familiar?

  83. holland fan

    feral and piper hahahahahahahahahah

  84. Rhyme

    xDDD
    I can’t stop thinkingabout how romantic it is xDDD
    a bounty hunter and an old target xDDD

  85. Rhyme

    the wings in Holland’s coat!!! *-*
