The lesson with dad seemed to have stuck. Dread would repeat the stance, over and over. Whenever he had a moment of stillness, a moment where he wasn't moving or going or doing, he'd try it. It would become second nature. Was there a first nature? He'd take some time to think that over, too. Was there a second nature? Who would he even ask about that? Mom, probably. Dread would ask her later. At some point. Probably. Armed with the one thing dad had taught him so far, all Dread could do was practice. Now that he felt comfortable in the stance that Seer had shown him, he may as well test it out. There had to be a sibling around here somewhere. Someone that he could practice the whole defensive stance thing on... but who? It was daylight, he wasn't going to seek out Kite or Vanta. That wouldn't be fair, he couldn't do that to them. There was also the guilt that ate away at Dread when it came to Crux... no. Now wasn't the time for that either. A blond ball of fur catches his eye, not far off. Dread fixed his gaze on it, calling out to Stratum. "Come practice with me." It's a request, though Dread's tone probably doesn't leave much space for argument. He's a boy on a mission, after all. |
