Gabriel hadn't been home, Gabriel hadn't even been in Valhalla. He knew he was in trouble, he knew he was going to be punished, he anticipated it, saw it coming. He didn't want to go home, he didn't want to step back across those borders... three days... three days he had vanished into the wilds, the rotting corpse of some animal had tided him over and he was more than capable of fetching a drink. He didn't wanna go home, he didn't wanna be home and yet... two toned oculars gazed upon the border, a mixture of emotions swirling in the depths of his eyes. He hated her, he hated her for making him feel this way, she betrayed him, Pip loved him, Pip had promised, Pip was gone. Gone to some kingdom far away, to marry some prince. She had forgotten him, she had left him, she had promised and now she was gone. Betrayal twisted its way into a painful thump somewhere in the depths of his chest. It hurt far more than the young pup cared to admit, he had cried, he had whined, he had ran. Pip was one of few who understood him, gave him the time of day and now she was gone and the young pup had no idea how to handle the miserable pain wearing down on him... and so he buried it. Pushed it beneath the surface until cerulean gold hardened into cold topaz and sapphire. For a long time Gabriel eyed the border of his home, his body now more gangly than pup like, his paws still too big and his body still too small. With a deep breath and pushing away all of that hurt, he slowly stepped back into Valhalla, dreading the confrontation he was sure to have.
