Keep Careful Watch of My Brother's Souls

The acid in Sigmarr's voice stung, eating away at a bit of the girl's naivety. Even the apology hot on the hate's tail could not wipe away the residual burn. She let her lip curl, white fangs flashing in the day's light. What the fuck was his problem, anyways? How could had stand there, miserable and withered and wasting away and tell her that the choices she made were wrong? Hell, maybe she wasn't eating as well as she used to, but she was happy! Or, well... maybe something close to it. Closer than Sigmarr was! And doubtlessly closer than their siblings impounded in Olympus. She would say nothing to his spiteful words, forcing them in one ear and out the other, rolling off of her like water on a duck's wing before the poison leeched into her skin. He needed to train? She held in a scoff. Like anyone would teach him what he needed to know there. Who would dare lay a paw on their prince? What did he know about real combat! If he wanted to know how to fight, how to kill, a pack of coyotes on the only kill he'd see in three weeks would do the trick, she could promise him that. But still, she remained silent, a coal of rage kindling into life somewhere in her gut, it's fell heat radiating outwards and making the air around her feel unseasonably cool. Even his allowance at long last that she might have a point would not snuff out the blaze. The words had been said, the damage done. If I was running away, she thought viciously, you'd never see me again, I can swear to that, sweet brother. How dare he insinuate that she was a coward, he had no idea what she'd been through! "Why don't you come back to Ebony and we can ask?" At long last she let loose a harsh bark of laughter, finding his words more than humorous. "Sig, don't get me wrong here. I miss you guys, but if I have to waste one more breath on that hellfire shit hole I'll chew off my own tail." A strong wind gusted off the water's surface and she turned to find a wall of dark clouds approaching, have snuck over the horizon unannounced while she'd been distracted. "Shit," she mumbled. Turning back to her brother, she leveled him with a dry stare. "I've gotta split, brother. Give my love to Svet, Kass, and Sin. Tell them I haven't forgotten them, and I'll be back when the season turns. Stronger than ever, you'll see. And even stronger together." With that she turned, scooping up what was left of her fish into her jaws and dashing into the woods. She half expected Sigmarr to call out, to give chase, but she hoped he didn't. He just didn't understand. -Exits unless stopped- |
