Alternate realities [Zara/aw]

The large woman sat beside her even larger companion, head hanging slightly as she allowed the blood to continue to trickle down her face. Though the bleeding was slowing it was still fairly bad, she had left before allowing Rook to help her the way the she had helped her opponent. Her desire to see her anchor, her rock had been overwhelming and she had staggered off before Rook had been able to stop her. She could hear the rumble that rolled out of Newt?s throat but Zara could barely scrounge up the energy to smile at the sound never mind lift her head to cast a look at her faithful companion. She could hear and feel Newt sniffing at her but soon enough Newt lowered her head and allowed the organ to drop to the ground. Zara?s smile widened as she lowered her head further to investigate the present. A heart? More specifically Sade?s heart?

Newt?s words whispered thought Zara?s mind as she forced herself to straighten a bit more. ?What would I do without you? she said softly, voice barley above a whisper. Head tilted slightly as Newt commented on her current state, then proceeded to lick the blood from her face. It was helpful and slowly eyes began to open as Newt freed the crusty blood from her face. She would need to wash more but it was helpful and oddly comforting. Was the other one as broken? ?I called Rookshank for a challenge. I had to patch her up near the end; her chest was torn open. I could see the bone?? she said with a half hearted chuckle. Did she want Newt to kill Rook anymore? No, they had fought it out and ripped each other up and sorted it out.

?Newt I need to leave for a while? I can?t tell you how much I need you to stay strong for me and lead this pack until I return?? she said softly, tilting her head slightly as Newt continued to groom the impurities from her face. ?I think I?m going blind and I realized that I haven?t seen any of these lands, I want to see what I can.? she said softly, forcing herself to lift her head up and turn her gaze towards the massive female. She would take Newt with her if she could but someone needed to keep everything in line while she was gone. Newt was a bit off her rocker but she was loyal and she had a good head on her shoulders when she applied herself. Though their meetings had been brief and limited Zara could already not imagine a life without this female. Even the thought of a few weeks away hurt but she honestly felt that this was what she needed to do.
