Ash to ashes, dust to dust [Newt wolves/Tortuga]

They had all come. So many faces, so many lives she wanted to protect. Her heart was in shambles. Her love was dead. Her world had been ripped apart and she couldn?t understand how they could go on. Yet the world kept turning even when everything was ripped to shreds. She swallowed all the pain down in one fast swoop and looked at every face waiting to know what she was going to say.

?The world has fallen. I have failed you. Kaios is dead and here I stand, widower, and homeless with grief ridding my back.? She said slowly, she could feel the rage holding onto her gut. Feel it turning. Feeling the thoughts piling up on what to do. ?I worked so hard to know you all. To protect you all and the serpent stole my breath in one sneaky grasp.? She growled, the memory was still vivid in her mind. Everything had gone black and she had fought it. only to awaken with his blood spilled on the ground and champion dragging his body away. She could feel sadness, it lingered somewhere, but the rage was far greater and tasted much sweeter in her throat.

?Medusa has claimed our home for her own. I am here before you to discuss what is to come of these events. First, We are officially at War with Jupiter?s pack. Not only did she kill our king but also she sent her serpent to steal our home with little regard of the consequences or the fact that we didn?t need to be taken over. As for what we shall do about Medusa, I will ensure she is taken down when the time is right and we will take our home back.? She said with a fierceness that almost startled herself. She wanted revenge but she wanted more to protect those she loved. ?As for why I called Tortuga here, well, we held an alliance with them and now with Amenti in the claws of that wolf it seems we much figure out a new agreement.? She said with a sigh. Things had been working. Things had been smooth and she had felt normalcy for the first time in such a long time. Yet Jupiter had stolen it right from under her paws.

?This is an open discussion. Your words have always mattered to me. What is best for the pack, for us, is my first priority.? She said as she allowed her gaze to rove over them all. ?Speak if you have concerns over what I desire for us, if you have alternate suggestions. They will all be taken into consideration and though my heart is wounded, I am not so egotistical to ignore the cries of the wolves I lead and love.? She said finally. She wanted to come to an arrangement that most would agree with. She knew not everyone would be happy but all that mattered was that they stuck together. Yet something in her mind, wavered towards the male who called her beetle eyes, his insanity was lovely and intoxicating and she wondered if that called trouble to her life. Trouble wasn?t always a bad thing now was it?

ooc: I am so sorry this is so short and crappy, ive been working my butt off lately at work so forgive the shortnes. Also, had to wait for kaios to die.
