Learn to live with the unimaginable

Rudyard made his way to the meeting.  His mind full of thoughts that he was trying to piece together.  Rudy was use to easily having answers and confidence in how things would work out.  The boy wasn’t use to feeling shaken by things, at least not until recently.  Someone had taken his perfect world and flipped it over then thrashed it about for good measure.  Where was his stability?

Rudy heard Ulric’s howl and walked to the meeting area, looking within.  With a resigned sigh the boy moved in and headed over to where his siblings were.  Rudy looked to his sisters and brothers with a flicker of ghost smile, the sort that never meets the eyes, then glanced to where Ulric stood.  Rudy didn’t particularly want to hear anything that would come from this meeting.  

Rudy was starting to learn one thing really well.  You can’t always get what you want.  What a rotten reality that was.
