THEORY CAVALIERE-DESTRUCTION

______________________________

Theo gulped for air as her sobs began to subside. It took a while until she could speak again. In between, she just tried to take deep breaths and leaned hard into Shaye's embrace. Hearing that her siblings were safe lifted an incredible weight off of her small body. "But Verse...?" she murmured, learning that she hadn't been accounted for. Verse was the least able to get herself to safety - what if she seized as the smoke rolled in?

"No," she whined as Shaye assured her, "I left them behind, that's unforgivable." Her voice was suddenly and uncharacteristically chilly. "They're my family, you don't leave family behind." It was clear that Theory wasn't just talking about her own perceived mistake - there was hate and pain in her voice, and it stemmed from her mother's abandonment, not just the chaos of the fire. "Please, can I look for Verse with Winter...?" Theo wrestled out of Shaye's grip and tried to stand, immediately falling to her side. Her paws were too badly burned and she could barely walk. Struggling, Theo dragged herself to her paws and tried again to walk. She fell to the sands again. Lying the ground, Theo lay perfectly still. "I need to know she's okay," she whispered.
