Tik toc tik toc (DEATH MATCH)

The giant heard the call and his legs carried him to the arena. He was already a heart sore old wolf, mourning the loss of a child he no longer thought was a part of this world. He carried the burden of being the one who had to function, his movements in thr pack lands had to look more then mechanical for the sake of his family. At night he curled about his brother and hid his own pain so his brother could fret and worry without the added burden of glaciers grief. More then this, he did all he could to hide his loss of hope voltage. He had no doubt that if voltage saw it, it would be like a betrayal to his brother.

So in the midst of all this he wasn't certain he would have the strength to appear at such a gruesome gathering. Yet, once again his heart both betrayed and hurt him. He could not hide in his pack lands well a wolf he considered a friend took this path alone. He didn't know the story, he didn't know why she called for sin, a wolf almost on the verge of being named his friend. He moved silently into that gathering crowd, placing himself somewhere on the edge of it all and out of the way. The fight had already started before his arrival and he didn't risk distracting either wolf. His eyes traveled from one to another, as he wondered which friend would be lost to him today. More loss, more grief. The alphas load was destined never to be an easy one to bare. His shuddered face gave away little of the pain that clutched his heart, but the age in his eyes spoke volumes.
