Trusty Chords

Valentine had just left her, something she hadn't really anticipated to be as hard as it was. Her temporary den was cold and uninviting compared to the den she'd originally planned on sleeping in that night. Not that there would have been many places where she would have felt comfortable. She'd never felt a pain like the one that was sitting in her heart, nor had she expected to lose everything. Her family was gone. Bass was the one to take them away, his banishment had cut her far deeper than she even realized. As the girl curled up to try and fall asleep she'd crave the feeling of Motif beside her. As she lay there the girl had no chance of drifting into dreamland and she knew it. The call of Chord was a welcome one, though she still had no desire to tell him why she was here and not in Abaven. Surely he would understand better than Bass though. Still she wanted to forget all of the previous night that had happened. She wanted to take everything back and just go back and lay down with her sister. That wasn't going to be happening though. Her whole body felt numb and useless, her eyes were red from the impossible amount of tears she'd cried. Her head was pounding as she lifted herself to her paws and exited the den. The feeling of loneliness that had taken hold of her was enough for her to have a quickness in her step. Chord was a connection she still had to her siblings. She'd barely manage a hint of a smile as she trotted up to her brother, free of companionship for now. She couldn't help herself as she fell into Chord's chest and felt herself start to cry again. She'd bury her face into his neck and sob quietly. She didn't know how much he might have known but it would be a moment before she could catch her breath again. |
