find your own way

Az did not like the way his brother spoke, as if the different smell in the air should be obvious. He sniffed quietly, but recognized nothing but the stale smell of mom, dad, and the moisture of the cavern. Less and less he trusted his brother's judgement, but he seemed confident enough that Azure still followed. It was hard to keep track of him in the dark but the rustle of feathers upon the boy's back was unmistakable and easy enough to follow. If anything perhaps they'd become more and more lost, their father would need to rescue them and he could say 'I told you so' that Mortis was wrong. Even better, maybe Mortis would be in trouble for his lies instead of Az.

The sounds from behind and around him continued in the dark, and Azure's head lowered to between his shoulders. He could hold his frightened pose with no worry, as surely his brother could not see him clearly in the dark. Bravery was hard, especially when you felt stalked. The fur on his back rose, and his breath began to come out in faster pants. "Did you see that?" He asked suddenly, cerulean gaze piercing the darkness where he swore a shadow lurked.

"Speech"
"Thinking"
"You."
