SHE'S A KILLER QUEEN

The stranger turned aggressive very suddenly, attacking poor Anthem without warning. Satu's cousins rushed to protect him, even the ones who hadn't been there previously, and Satu found herself shoved to the side. She stood aside from the tumult and confusion, frozen in uncertainty. There wasn't really anything she could do, as Song, Howl, and Canta had taken on the stranger and Anthem had retreated with Novella. The younger stranger who had appeared had shouted for her - Virgil appeared to be the aggressive female's name - and called for a diplomatic solution. Diplomatic solutions sounded like a good thing, but how diplomatic would this wolf feel to see his pregnant friend? packmate? fighting by herself against three Ludicael wolves? Satu was sure that Song wouldn't let the wolf get hurt too bad, even if she had attacked Anthem, but this guy didn't know that. So Satu squared off with the younger wolf, pelt bristling more out of alarm than anger, her gaze anxious and confused. She couldn't imagine why anyone would attack Anthem. Was she rabid? Would she infect Song and Howl and Canta? Was this wolf rabid too? If he attacked her what would she do? She'd only had one self-defense lesson! Another voice, commanding and female, snapped through the chaos, and Satu flinched, though she kept her position. Novella's voice rose too, and Satu nodded along with what she was saying. "He wasn't even doing anything," she added, though in an anxious mutter that was very unlikely to reach the completely black wolf that was approaching. "He wasn't," she insisted again to the red-eyed wolf she was facing down, probably the one who had been referred to as Hermes, trying very, very hard to resist the urge to stick her tongue out at him. He wasn't the mean one who'd attacked Anthem, after all, and it would probably make things worse... She still really, really wanted to. |
