The Unraveling - It Burns

Terror was more than just a little curious about everything that was going on. With new siblings, he practically had to beg his mother to let him go and check it out with the promise that he wouldn't go alone- when did he ever go anywhere without Grue, anyway? The last thing Widow needed was to be poking around something dangerous when she had a whole new litter to keep fed and safe. Although he knew the trip was risky and that there was no telling what would be found, Terror was determined to bring back some sort of information. He didn't expect the imminent danger to happen so suddenly however, jumping in place as the creature erupted from the ground.

Pale eyes looked on in terror until Grue mentioned children, and to keep them safe. With his own size there was nothing he could do that would help the group forming besides to round up the kids (some who were even bigger than him) in an effort to try and keep them safe. Sending Grue into danger like this was not part of the plan. If he got hurt, what was he going to do? He couldn't carry his brother back, he could barely even lift one of his massive legs... and what would Widow say? He wasn't as scared of her reaction as much as he was scared of losing Grue, for some reason.

"Just... be safe," he begged quietly, his voice shaky with worry written all over his face. He carefully got off his brothers back and turned away, towards the crowd and between the legs of the taller adults to locate any children as the battle begun and others started attacking the giant creature. "Children, come with me!" It wasn't a question, nor was it a suggestion, but would anyone listen to someone that looked like a young pup instead of the yearling that he was?

However it wasn't but a moment later that he caught sight of a rock flying in what felt like slow motion, pale eyes following it's path just for it to crash into his brothers head. He couldn't assess the damage, but there had to be some. His heart dropped, his face stricken with complete and utter terror. "Grue!" he screamed, looking between the children and his brother. Without paying any attention to the creature or the children, he dashed towards his brother, rushing to get to him without paying attention to the crowd of others or the creatures retaliating attacks.

"Speech!"
