Together. Together they brought the shadow buck low. His bulk brought the animal crashing to the ground and Viper's teeth brought its blood flowing to the surface. The blood didn't stop. It pumped and pumped from the buck until the ground all between the white birch trees was deep red. The fog had dissipated enough to see that every square inch of ground, dirt, rocks, grass... all of it was blood red. Was this how he remembered them?

Chimera looked at the woman, their kill forgotten. She looked whole and healthy. Not a single scar marred her perfect form and her goat shone brightly.

He placed his cheek upon her chest... and cried. Tears rose in the giant's mismatched eyes as he held the dead woman against him. "I miss you, Viper." His words were soft, but they held depths of sadness that the waking version of himself had never expressed. Viper was the first. She had seen the most base parts of him and had accepted them. He missed that. He missed her. So, he held the woman while he could, and he cried.
