 How was I supposed to know it was Vidar? Boy looks damn near as bad as Tobias and yet truthfully…Tobias has more appendages then this fellow seems to, features forming a scowl at Devils words before his own face contort into something almost a kin to shame. I suppose I can understand where he is coming from, he did, after all, see fit to go about mauling people after League died and while I understand the grief at the death of a child, even I am willing to admit his rampage had hardly been the way to handle it. I have never found fault with my oldest fiend and indeed I hardly see fit to judge a creature whose paws are surely as bloody as my own. Yet attacking Vidar….pack….staring a war that had seen my Isola injured and even Azrael sent into battle had hardly…pleased me, this attack upon Vidar perhaps the single sore point between us and yet I saw no need to bring it up now. He knew he did wrong that day and for now, at least, that is enough. One eye lifted momentarily, waiting for someone to do as I commanded, Vidar or not I saw no need to have a black pelted wolf charging about Taviora like a perfect fool and making unnecessary noise. Why Moth wanted to join this pack of….hippies I hardly know. Has Coza no control? How many wolves neither ally nor pack does he just allow to run about? Hmm, maybe I am just old, maybe this is some sort of new free-thinking style of leadership, but really….it pains me to think of Moth living with these tree living fools. She could have done so much better. Of course, I hardly hate Coza, I imply find his pack an assault to my eyes and his style of leadership to be decidedly lax in my opinion. Maybe I am being judgemental. I don’t care. A sudden roar from within the trees saw my head tilt once more, ears pricking forward in surprise at the sudden sound before Devil exploded from beside me, plunging forward and into the trees, the barest hint of a smirk touching my lips. “Excellent enthusiasm Devil, the rest of you should- oh.” Tobias. Well. Devil’s willingness to obey me was still a rather pleasing thing, Alias lunging past a moment later as the snarls and cries of a brawl ripped into the air and my own heckles rose, the scent of Coza and another lingering upon the air…Beowulf believe, the salty tang of blood rising moments later though whose it was I could hardly say, limbs breaking into a lope, leaving Chance and Zeteri to do as they pleased as my own heckles lifted and lips pulled back from fangs, violet eyes peering through the trees as wolf after wolf plunged into the assault and another grin touched my lips momentarily. Hmm, perhaps this will finally be the end for the creature who took my daughter from me and indeed it would seem I am content to simply watch him be torn apart, my form moving from habit to slide into the shadows, violet eyes watching as the hellish thing continued to fight, Devil tearing open his ruff before the animal collided with Beowulf in rather a splendid aerodynamic display, wrenching his way clean of the group. It would seem he never did forget the lesson I gave so many years ago. Had it not been for Aaliyah he would be dead. Had she not stopped me that day she may still live, my hate for this creature something truly vile within myself as he broke free once more, plunging forward, heading back the way we had all run. Not today. There is much to be said for he who waits within the shadows. Assassins fight together when needed and yet we have always done our best work alone. Each of my team of warriors and assassins has laid a mark on him and yet still he runs. Now it’s my turn and indeed unhampered by another other I am content to leave a mark. My muscle is almost given to protest the leap I offer and yet such a thing is natural, done so many times that I land with silent ease before him and into his path, some form of recognition flickering within those dead as he plunges forward still and my own form rises to meet him, head and tail high, heckles raised and teeth bared in the dominance of an Alpha and yet… he does not slow, he does not halt and indeed had I been younger, less experienced perhaps I would not have seen his intention so clear, not have seen muscle coil in preparation to lunge and yet…age is indeed a double-edged sword, my mind so assured of what he desires to do and yet….lacking the speed to dodge it, to twist as I once would have done so easily, violet eyes widening slightly as I moved to do the only thing I had left- duck. My form dropped into and almost bow like position, Tobias lunging over, thrown slightly off perhaps, having believed indeed he would strike myself before my own snarled snapped forth, forming twisting in such a manner that I may well have thrown my entire back out as I lunged with all the force I had left, teeth clamping onto the thickened fur off his ruff once more, a part undamaged, weight thrown backwards in an effort to jerk him back and yet…..it would seem I have underestimated his strength…or perhaps overestimated my own in my twentieth year, my form lent backwards, pulling like a dog in a game of tug a war and yet….the damn thing just kept on running! It was perhaps the most ungraceful moment of my entire life and really, it is such a shame Devil, Beowulf, Alias, Zeteri, Chance and Coza are watching, after all, I don’t suppose any of them have ever seen one wolf running with another being dragged along behind it, paws streaming through the wet earth as I struggled to find purchase, lacking the weight of Devil or Chance, something sure to have ensured my attack worked, old muscle simply unable to haul him to a halt as I was….well….essentially dragged on a rather hellish ride through Taviora, teeth embedded in his ruff as he ran. Really, is anyone going to stop him or should I just keep hanging on? Surely one of you is fast enough? Oh please, don’t mind me, I’ve got him. Seriously. Do something. Someone. I am so unimpressed right now, this is so undignified. At least I’m slowing him down, more then any of you did…… So help me. The Assassin King |
