Kamikaze Airplanes in the Sky

Walk | Talk | Think

Requiem was unaware of the stranger who followed quietly along behind him, trailing his scent and assessing him from afar. He was far too preoccupied with his own search which was proving to be fruitless all over again. Was this it? Would he never get to see her again, or know that he was doing well in the ways of those he sought to please and follow? He was so far from home already that his steps slowed nearly to a stop as he considered turning back and salvaging whatever was left of his day to be productive inside the pack's borders, when a deep, authoritative voice spoke up behind him.

Starting, the yearling spun around rather quickly, his two-toned gaze fixing immediately on the figure there. The wolf appeared rather pleased despite his tone that brooked no compromise, insisting in that single phrase that the brown wolf was to follow him back and submit to being a servant to some empress from a place that he could recognize. Hesitantly Requiem drew back a step. He did not want to become some servant to some random stranger, no matter their station inside of a pack if that was what Apollyon turned out to be. He had family back home that needed him, that he needed. This guy had it all wrong.

Setting his jaw stubbornly, resolution within his eyes, Requiem stared the wolf down. "I'm not going anywhere," he answered, his tone sure though he had never really been tested. If it came to a battle he was not at all certain of coming away the victor, but he was sure going to do his damnedest to keep his freedom. "The only one I serve is the divine, and that's not whoever this empress is."

OOC: Gonna say in advance any PP you find necessary is alright with me!
