Spotlight on Centerstage [Abraxas Fam]

*Amon* · 07-26-2017, 10:50 AM

Amon, not hearing a reply from Naamah, assumed the woman must still be sleeping. Well, he was hardly surprised. Even though there were only two pups, they were full of spirit and boundless energy. As such, it was not long before they came bubbling forth to the front of the den. Naamah had veritably pup-proofed the space, which had left Amon chuckling when he first saw it. There were no children more suited to escaping than Abraxas children, but so far Aaliyah and Gaios seemed too young to be able to accomplish much. Perhaps that would change in time.

His son was the first to rush to the barricade, intent on the rabbit he had brought along. His sister was on his heels though, and Amon watched with mounting amusement as his daughter tried to heave herself up, up, and- Well, it was as he suspected. Her dark brindle body bumbled over the barricade, and he opened his mouth to comment on her graceful entry when a set of teeth lodged into his backside. He snapped his mouth closed around a half snarl, worried that he would frighten Aaliyah or Gaios, but could not stop himself from whirling around to face his assailant.

Oh, of course it would be his gods-damned-good-for-nothing-rat-eating sister. He glared at her, eyes seeping venom, until he saw Astaroth appear over her shoulder. His anger washed away with the delight of seeing his older daughter after so much time. She had filled fully into her adult frame, and he was pleased to see the young femme she had become. Strong and beautiful, with eyes like his. He graced her with a rare, genuine smile. It occurred to him, somewhere in the deep recesses of his mind, that perhaps he should be cross that she had not checked in. Instead he found himself grateful, because he had started to wonder if his children had not found homes in distant lands, and whether they would return to him at all.

Finding himself with too much to tend to at once, as usual, he turned to Gaios and Aaliyah. "There are some family members who are here to see you. Would you like to meet them?" He used one massive paw to push away bits of debris which made up the den's barrier so that both pups could easily come and go as they pleased. He quickly set the rabbit just inside the den so that Naamah could eat it at her leisure, and then stepped back to give his youngest a good view of their aunt and sister. "This is your Aunt, Pyralis. She has two pups as well, only a bit older than you, who I'm sure you'll meet soon as well. And this is your older sister, Astaroth. They are both exceptional fighters and very smart too, so I want you two to listen to everything they'll have to teach you, okay?" He flashed his older daughter a look of warm pride, finding himself overjoyed with her arrival and reminded of how much he missed the rest of her litter. Perhaps after this he would be able to pull her aside and ask her if she knew what had become of the others...
