Saved by animal control

Willow heard eight pops as the skunks were knocked out by tranquilizer darts, but didn't hear the ninth one as a tranquilizer dart struck her bare nipple and she passed out from the fast-acting sedative.

She woke up in a cage in the back of an animal control van, surrounded by cages of still tranquilized skunks, raccoons, as well as a tranquilized puma and sleeping python. She called out, but no one answered. The van was moving, and Willow wondered if it was taking her to a veterinary clinic, circus, nature preserve, or the zoo.
