Light 'Em Up!!

Be careful making wishes in the dark, dark
Can't be sure when they've hit their mark
And besides in the mean, mean time
I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart

How was I to know she would pass from her wounds, or that the other wolf would follow her into the afterlife. I did know that she was faking the majority of her strength, I understood that the moment I looked upon her posturing form. I could have been easy with her, gone after her legs, or her tail as she had done for me. I knew I could not risk loss. I had seen the gathering of wolves around their fallen comrades. I had figured at least one or two would try and avenge Moonglow and Alcide. How I had come to kill the second I have no idea, perhaps they were simply old. Never the less, I watch as the gold etched male moves on me, telling me my words meant nothing. I seem weary suddenly, but it is only a ruse, to get him to spring at me, to make him come to me in this battle. He moves forward in a sudden and surprising burst of speed.

I know well what rage does to one's resolve, the product of my rage laying on my borders as proof. I need to make arrangements for their burials after this. She died an honorable death, despite the dishonorable way she chose to end the match. If only she hadn't been so proud, so boastful of her position. His fangs are aimed at my neck, and while I move away from the lethal weapons I strike out with my own. As I sidestep him, I make my fangs for his side, hoping he tries to out run me. If he tries to run, I will follow him, fangs savagely snapping as snarls rip from my vocals. I aim for anything within my grasp, keeping my forty-two inch frame right on his side, keeping pace with him until he could run no further.

I mean to chase him and those with a like mindset from my lands. Lands that I have killed for, lands that will not be taken back from me so easily. If any retained a loyalty to the fallen queen, and sought to push me from my hard won throne, they have another think coming to them. So go, run to your allies, run to the loner lands outside Spirane. I have transformed myself into this beast of speed and strength, of agility and performance. I am made to be this mountain's capitan, and I will not abide disrespect. "Leave now, and I will spare your life. Get out while you can, boy!" I snarl it at him we run, if we get that far. I will push my bodice faster, crashing my weight against him, attempting to unbalance him and gnashing my fangs into his legs to slow him down. I want their ilk out of my home, these mutinous savages of the mountains. Run, boy, run. Get out before you join them.

A constellation of tears on your lashes
Burn everything you love, then burn the ashes
In the end everything collides
My childhood spat back out the monster that you see
