The Stars Place in the Universe

She closed her eyes, trying to not look at her dearest older brother. She expected him to interrupt her, at least tell her she was wrong. But he did not. He lay comely, his face nuzzled into her neck listening at her bitter words. He was understanding and when she was done he thought before he responded, not calling her a child for her immature feelings. Instead he seemed to since what she needed, a friend and a loving brother. "Stars are always beautiful." She replied, tilting her ears back when he kept talking. He was right about how they always shine, and the lovely shapes they make, she knows, Astrea watches and traced them every night. Watched as they twinkle and flash, as they shine behind the moon. they where infinitely close but oh so far. The pull she felt, even now when melancholy was at its worst, even though she wished that she felt something more close to home. She didn't respond when he went on about her power, for that was not true at all, she was the youngest, with the least power and no skills to back her. Everyone has a purpose, they fit into a cozy hole that just did not seem able to fit her as well. It was obvious to most of her siblings where they fit, Terrae knew plants so he can heal, Locha knew about tides so she can keep them all safe, Serefina can use her fiery nature to protect them. But her? She only knew about stars, what good was that? Yea she can tell you which way was north, what good was that to a wolf? You could just sniff your way around. Most probably got around just fine without even looking at the stars once. "What good is a wolf like me volt? I am good at nothing. I cannot hunt or track if my life depended on it. I'm too small and weak to fight. All I do is day dream and look at stars." She wanted to pull away from her brother at that point, She felt trapped. She felt like all she was doing was taking up space on a world that did not need her. "How can I be the answer? I do not know anything about our family, I was wrong about you after all. I thought I figured you out but it seems I was wrong." She turned further in on herself, curling around herself tightly. "All I am is a burden." She was about to get up then, to walk away a failure. A unwanted child... Again. She hated those thoughts, she wanted to go back, to worry about nothing but the stars and her siblings. But she was unable to, she now knew that day dreaming about bodies stuck in the sky that she will never be able to look at up close was useless. But Volt kept talking this time bringing up her worst fear at the moment. She wanted to fit in the new pack, to be useful to her family, but nothing called to her like it seemed to her siblings, As the stars did. "No, But im sure I will fit perfectly as something unskilled." |
