Ahlon had been relatively peaceful, perhaps the surrounding areas lending themselves a little more to violence though Novella knew nothing of them and it wasn't very often she had seen them either. It really hadn't been difficult to shield her from any serious fights perhaps that was why this was all the more shocking to the young girl. She felt Symphony shift a little closer and though she perhaps may have been a little more reluctant to admit the fear around some of her other siblings, there was no worry here now. "No matter what we are family. And dont worry I'll just task you with helping me clean the wounds and stop the bleeding." Novella just gave another steady nod of her head, tearing her gaze from the fight and looking to Myth as she joined them.
The joy of finding some of her siblings had apparently faded a little now, Symphony's reaction certainly taking away some of that. Still how Myth could have been quite so carefree when this clearly wasn't play Novella really didn't understand. She remained silent as her sister's exchanged words, then at Symphony's mention of their elder sister, her mismatched sought for the form of Song. Now wasn't the time for an introduction though to be honest, deep down Novella knew that and though a part of her wanted what family was present close right about now, she opted instead to remain put for when Symphony needed her help.
That moment seemed to arrive rather quickly. The fight appeared to be slowing and finally the black male paused and to Novella's surprise and pleasure gave in. The feeling did not last long however as he suddenly turned, moving in the direction of Myth, Symphony and herself. She tensed again, though a part of her suspected that they would be safe, he had just willingly walked away from his fight with Jupiter, to start another with one of her pack members in his current state would have made him far more foolish. Perhaps it was only that realisation that brought on a little burst of courage, more so than the longing to protect her sisters, but she straightened herself slightly all the same, carefully eyeing the man as her hackles began to rise.
All he wanted was to speak with Myth it seemed and at his words Novella could understand her sister's mistake in siding with him. He didn't actually seem too bad now, though of course given the circumstances she certainly didn't want anything to do with him and hoped that Myth would listen to his words and remain here. As he turned to walk away, Novella's gaze shifted briefly to Jupiter and then back to Symphony. She imagined now that her sister would need to go and help her. "What do we do?"
