What is war

"A bad intruder?" Pyrrhic nodded vigorously. He then leaned back and fixed his sister with a conspiratorial look. He wouldn't make this offer to just anybody. The intruder was bad - really bad. He needed a partner who was strong and brave, and who wouldn't bail because the challenge was dangerous. And boy, was this gonna be dangerous! "Yeah, I'll show you," he whispered back enthusiastically before bounding off. The bad intruder didn't live too from where they were now. Its burrow was literally just a hop, skip and jump away. "There," he said finally as he pointed towards a large hole in the ground. He'd seen the creature once before at a distance when he'd been out walking with his dad. Malleus had called the long-faced, salt n' pepper creature a "bad jerk" or something like that. Pyrrhic had been unimpressed. Although it was as wide as two pups put together, the creature was very short. It had ridiculously tiny legs that made him think he could run circles around it. Still, his father had been very serious when he'd told him to leave it alone. BUT, he'd told him that when he was still quite little. Pyrrhic, in his mind, was almost a grown up now. His dad had even given him the job of guarding the densite so it made sense that he was now big and strong enough to take on the bad jerk. Pyrrhic peeked into the burrow before looking up at his sister. He whispered, "What should we do?" |
