Empire of Angels (CHALLENGE)
Avalon |
She seemed to hold her breath when the fight started, the woman tensing visibly when Valentine charged. She'd never seen him fight before, but she had no doubt the man was strong. Would the smaller Cypress he able to--what?! It felt like the moment she blinked, Cypress fell victim to a powerful bite, the cringing sounds of cracking teeth filling the air as the world froze. As if in slow motion, Cypress slumped to the ground, Valentine stepping back. Avalon's eyes were wide in shock, she definitely had not expected that at all. Her heart sunk as she stared at Cypress' fallen form, though there wasn't much except the broken teeth and whatever other internal injuries, it was still heart wrenching to see.
As others shifted, and valentine's voice reached her, she finally set into motion. Rushing to Cypress' side, she nosed his unconscious form, signaling to Holly to come and look him over. She was hell bent on helping Cypress back to pack lands, that was the least she could do for him. She let Valentine's words hang in the air for a moment as she stood tall again, amber gaze finding his as she listened to a...rather menacing looking tank thing with a skull on his head. Offering to help carry her children. She wasn't sure if she trusted that thing to even touch her kids...not yet at least.
Just as she was about to respond, a familiar voice broke her off, and then she would look past Valentine to see a small streak of brown racing towards him. Akemi! What the hell was she doing!? She hadn't gotten to know her, only hunted with her once and heard about her from her mate, Ravine. Her breath caught in her throat, would she have to take both of them back after this? Oh...she could only imagine how Arian would take all of this... |
