What Once Was

Her and her brother had always been close, no matter what they had been able to find each other and see each other through all their hard times. But it would seem that a rut had been put between them, a huge wedge that was tearing them apart. She had said that she was sorry at the meeting, all the hurtful words that she had said. Flinching at the memory, she found her brothers trail and started to follow it. It didn't surprise her that it led to the Range, a place he was drawn to and one that she tried to ignore. When she rounded the corner around a tree she saw him sitting by their old den -- the one that she had gone on a rampage on and destroyed. Another flinch. She stood still for a moment, long tail sweeping behind her as she gazed at him with her purple eyes. She longed for his sunshine yellow ones to look up at her, to forgive her and hold her like he always did. Revenge had been there for her through all the stupid things that she had done, scolding her when she came back with her infected scratches. And still she pushed him away, like she did with her parents and all those that seemed to get close to her. She wasn't sure how this pale man before her even still cared for her at all...

Finally getting her legs to work she took a few steps towards Revenge, before she paused. Mercy didn't run to his side yet, she didn't really know where they had stood. Esti's words had pissed her off at the meeting, and she had tossed a glare and a growl in her direction. She knew that he probably wouldn't be too happy about that. Looking away for a moment and shuffling on her paws, she let out another sigh. "Do you hate me yet?" she asked softly, ears pressed tightly against her skull.
