Battle to the death

It was strange to be back in the Armada, and strangers still to be back in their home without their mothers presence. The reminder of her was everywhere, despite their dad's attempts to clean it up. Some of her siblings even wanted the reminder. Kite was determined to pretend it didn’t affect her. Especially when all she could do was relay her conversation with her mum around and around her head. The last thing she had said to her was to complain. To whine about her siblings, and make it all about her. And then her mother was dead. And now she was left with all these residual feelings.

It was late evening when she stormed into the woods. Lioness at her paws as they made their way through the woods. It was slow going, all those tree trunks, and the blinding evening light as it shifted through the leaves. She stopped beneath a circle of four large trunks. Piles of leaves crunching beneath her paws. She took a soft breath, centering herself. She wanted to fight, and normally that meant pissing off Azure. Sadly, she hadn’t been able to find him today. A shame, because she didn’t have to hold back with Azure. She could say the meanest things that came to her mind, and try her best to bite one of his toes off.
