The Raging Storm

Arcus would move as quickly as his paws could carry him, but he really didn't have a destination. He needed to move, he needed to run, he needed to feel the energy in the air. He needed...something. He hadn't run the moment the Voltage dropped the news, not that he really attended the meeting. He had just stood in the background, off to the side. But the moment he had dropped the news, something familiare had bubbled up in Arcus. He felt that raging storm, felt the anger that surged in his eyes. Pain, anger...he moved as quick as he could, paws eating at the beach before he realized he did have a destination! He had seen her book it from the meeting, he had seen the pain, he had known the storms that raged in her. "Astrea!" He barked, moving as quickly as he could after her as she ran for the storm. He wondered, briefly, why Voltage wasn't chasing her but then he remembered...Astrea was his sister. He was her older brother, the first born to the last born. Everything felt strange, he felt..odd. Was it because for once he felt oddly needed "Astrea." He barked for her, slowing when she seemed to stop, but then she called to the air, her sob shook his heart. He felt his lungs grow tight, felt his whole body clenched when he realized just how much she seemed to need someone. Slowly he'd step towards her, his head lower as his feather fluttered behind his ear. "Sister...come here." He said softly over the storm, commanding, hoping that she would accept his once-distant love and affection. She needed him, she needed to know she wasn't alone, just like she had. "Please, come here." He would open himself up to her, hoping she would come to him, hoping he could help her heal her wounds so he might begin to heal his own. |
