at war with good and evil There it went! Laufey raced after the salamander, pounce after pounce bringing him closer to its escaping tail. His approach may have been a bit rough, but really, he didn't want to hurt it, all he wanted to do was look at it. Something flashed out of the corner of his eye and Laufey skidded to a halt, eyes growing huge as another pup snatched up his salamander. He watched it struggle, little legs kicking and tail lashing, and then all at once its legs tensed and started to kick wildly before going still. Above the salamander's dying body, cold blue eyes watched him. All the warmth left Laufey's body and he stared at the stranger, dumbstruck but what had just happened. He couldn't begin to understand it, his whole mind struggling to make sense of it all. Every inch of him felt like it was laced with ice. And then, when he couldn't possibly feel any colder, the process reversed. He couldn't begin to understand the 'why' of her actions and he didn't care. When what had happened finally registered, Laufey began to shake. Rage tingled the length of his body and his hackles lifted. The killer commanded him to leave and if he hadn't been so thoroughly consumed by hate he would have been indignant, for he had been there first. Her command would be blatantly and aggressively ignored. Calling on an explicit-laced argument he'd hear between his mother and Raven to barb his own words, Laufey snarled, "You BITCH!" and then he flung himself at the murderer. He didn't know the first thing about fighting, but instinctively his ears flattened and his eyes narrowed. He dove at Hestia head on, jaws wide in the hopes that he could sink his teeth into her like she'd sunk hers into the salamander. He had no target in mind; whatever he managed to grab would be savagely bitten until his jaw fell off or his anger cooled, whichever came first. "Speech" |
