Sound the Alarms
Sure enough, Mithras sped off like a hare. He shouted over his shoulder, about how all this was not his fault, but hers! She snapped viciously at him, barely grazing the tip of his tail. "What did I expect?" She bellowed, vaulting over a fallen log in the midst of her pursuit. She felt a twinge in her leg at the landing, and that probably wasn't very good. She wasn't about to stop, however. His excuse was somewhere beyond pathetic that hadn't quite reached an outright lie, because this was Mithras and let's be honest with ourselves here. "I expected you to not be so incredibly, unbelievably doltish!" She shouted, trying to take the back leg out from under her brother. If he'd been just a bit less wily, or just a bit bigger, she would have had him right there. However, he wasn't. The chase continued. He'd had a head start, but she was infuriated, and that made up for a lot. Mith's streaking turned into weaving, and he probably would have had Caia there were she not his sister. Chasing him around the trunk of a sapling willow and around a boulder that would have seemed out of place if she'd paid it any heed, she kept trying to trip him up. Her attempts to drag him backwards, kicking a screaming, by the tail, yeilded only mouthfuls of flamboyant hair. This was going to be exhausting, and she wouldn't even have energy to instill a proper beating by the end. He'd be getting off easy, then. He called over his shoulder, a plea for mercy. Her chest heaved with every breath, and the cosmic titan was dimly aware of a burn in her thighs, but she wasn't quite ready to let him off easy yet. "I hadn't even- thought, of castrating you," she heaved through her dry throat. "but now I'm thinking- that's a damned good idea." She snarled, rounding after him as they tore past an ancient tree that bowed beneath the weight of its own limbs. He was so dead, and now she was going to make sure he didn't make another mistake like this again. It was obviously the only option, since he wasn't capable of making simple decisions such as when not to knock someone up. Maybe she'd tie him to a tree for a bit. That seemed like a good idea, that way he didn't sneak off to impregnate someone else.
