Another one of his father's golden boys, another one of his father's sons. Older brother. He should have known. The flashing of teeth and the ringing in Dread's ears. Ears? Ear? There's only one left, though he doesn't know it yet. The other wasn't long for them. Tattered, hanging on by a thread. It wouldn't stay attached, hell, it's in Dread's best interest that it's more cleanly removed than whatever mangled mess is up there now. He doesn't know that. Fuck, he doesn't know that yet. Dread had limped from the battlefield with Deluge, each leaning on the other. His sister had gone after her, too. It hadn't been that deep, but here they were. Here they were, rebuked and bloody, his siblings had taken things that deep. Something acrid and burning in Dread's chest, something terrible and stinging within his chest. There area too many feelings, rearing up and baring their fangs. It's too much. Too many parts of the boy ablaze, on fire. The horizon seemed to bob and lurch in a way that he's not so used to. It looks... incorrect. Wrong. Why is it moving so violently? A strong wave comes from somewhere behind him, and at once, the boy is sucked under. Dread fights it, thrashing, coughing. A growl, then a yelp, as he's tugged under and smashed beneath the waves. Panic gripping his system, sinking its talons in deep. Panic, as he struggles to keep his head above water. Gasping, retching. Dread's body turned and dragged against the bottom of the sea, tossed like a rag doll. Head slamming into the sandbar, everything around the man is fire... everything is freezing. All he can do is look for Deluge as everything fades out of focus. |
