Aftermath
He waited impatiently for the meeting to start so that he could get the hell out of there. Of course, they had to wait for that bratty little boy to show up, and once he did, the meeting started. Zell sat there with deaf ears for most of it. He was sort of listening, but he didn't particularly care about anything that was going on. He heard the announcement about Faite and Rory having disappeared, as well as Jaidah. Honestly, he didn't feel like he really cared that Faite left again. While he missed his missing children, they were grown enough to take care of themselves. Torin went on to talk about the punishment for Jewell's kids, and he could care less about that. He wasn't going to babysit them, let alone keep an eye on them. It wasn't his responsibility, if Torn wanted to play babysitter then by all means, he could with the rest of them.
He was growing increasingly more impatient as his son continued, and when he got the part where the demotions were mentioned, Zell's eyes narrowed. He wasn't so much pissed off at the fact that Kairi had gotten demoted, he was well aware of that reasoning. But the fact that she got demoted for not contributing, whereas Jewell had never gotten demoted. Ever. That little brat didn't ever do anything, and quite frankly it pissed Zell off to a new degree. Jewell wasn't even related to them. She was not a part of his family no matter what anyone might say or think. After that, he stopped listening to anything else Torin had to say. He would not help train those pups, not because of what Jewell said because she didn't scare him at all. He simply didn't feel like he had to. It wasn't his responsibility anymore. Since Torin decided he was going to run the pack, then he could train them all. Though Zell was the best fighter in the pack, he didn't feel like helping them at all. After the pair finished speaking, Zell rose from his position and walked out without a single word or glance towards anyone but Kairi. "Come Kairi. We've work to do." He didn't wait around to see if she was following, didn't wait around to see if he would be addressed. He honestly just didn't care anymore.
