Evil Minds That Plot Destruction

The fight with the three male wolves turns with the appearance of an unknown blue woman. Haydée stands strong, striking out with deadly intent behind each swing toward the bad men. She does not know what they had planned for her but, by the large sneering smiles and venomous words, the girl can only assume it was not good. Finally, the tide turns and the men slink away, sporting new wounds and one less eye among the group. For a long moment, the small girl stands there, paws spread as she waits to see if they will surge back to try and hurt her one more time.

However, the group seems to have learned their lesson as they make no attempt to return and she releases a sigh while relaxing her muscles. Deftly, she slips the special knife that she wields back into its scabbard before turning toward the woman who has saved her. Relief and gratitude are written into her features as her tail slowly wags behind her. At the stranger’s question, she nods vigorously while saying, “Yeah! Just a few bites, nothing horrible. Thanks to you.” A bright, relieved smile fills her face as she bows her head in genuine gratitude. At the talk of resting at the Armada she lifts her head just as a flash of uncertainty shifts across her face.

Haydée had met Sirius and, while he had been kind, the small girl couldn’t help but feel like she didn’t measure up to his expectations for an alpha. Suddenly, the woman introduces herself and the girl shifts into her formal greeting mode that had been drilled into her. With a bow of respect, the girl says, “Pleasure to meet you Isa Fatalis. I am Haydée Kedieo, Leader of the pack Ethne, down in Auster.” Practiced words easily leave her lips but the smile that they pass through is heartfelt.

Head cants slightly as the girl puts two and two together and asks, “Fatalis… are you related to the Warlord, Sirius Fatalis?” Worry wars with the desire to the rest as she wrestles with the decision to go back to the scary big alpha or head on to Elysium.
