I Mean It

All of his muscles seemed to constrict just slightly as she came closer to him. She was so relaxed, it was clear to him that she did not recognize him just yet. He watched her move, admiring the way the ends of her fur seemed iced over like winter's frost. The way she moved was graceful, he thought, even when she was tired. He moved his eyes to her own, recalling them from that night. They were like swirling clouds, and it nearly sent chills down his spine the longer he looked into them. Her whole air was quite mystical, and despite the fact that he was the one towering over her- he felt insignificant in her presence.

He swallowed hard when she finally realized, and he could sense that she was growing uncomfortable. His own ears flattened back against his skull as the behemoth tried his best to focus on the young wolverine cub at his paws, the one that had been quiet this whole time. He watched it for a moment, staring into its gaze in order to gain some sort of serenity and remain calm. This was incredibly hard. Storm was so innocent, so vulnerable... how could he have preyed upon her as he had?

"I am not here on ill intentions," his voice was calm, nothing like anything that came from him that night. Even before his swing, he had been in a bit of a craze.. so many things plaguing him, so many thoughts and memories.. even when he was himself, he was insane. His words came out as nearly a whisper, gentle and careful as the wind carried them over to her ears.

"My name is Elias Praetor, and I just want to talk to you for awhile, if you will let me. I can not begin to explain the remorse that I have experienced over what has happened, and it took every bit of courage that I am capable of to come here and face you today. I will not remain here if you do not want me, you are in full control. But... I know it does not change anything that has happened, I can not take back what has happened.. just know that... I am not.. that night, I was weak and... out of control. I.. have made a lot of mistakes, and.. I have hurt a lot of people. I never wanted to, but.. well, I have my demons. However, I am sorry.. and I mean it. If there is anything I can do, I will do it. The whole incident started off wrong, and I am so sorry for taking your friend from you. I know it isn't the same, but I found this wolverine in the Rock Garden, the same hunting grounds that I met you. His mother--" he paused, trying his best to remain considerate of the cub's ears, ".. well, he needs guidance, but he is a very good tracker. He has even helped me, and I believe that the two of you could truly benefit each other."

He took a deep breath, looking her over for a moment as his head started to feel very light, dizziness setting in as his heart raced and yearned for her forgiveness... "If you would like, I can leave now-- I am not here to make you relive.. a nightmare. But if you want to, I can stay.. I would like to get to know you.. if you'd let me."
