.Silent Flight.

-22-

"--you brought shame upon this family!! Has all your progress been a lie?!" I stayed silent while taking the anger of my father, I always knew despite what he said I was a shame to him. "Leave!! Go I don't want to see you today!!"

I did so without a word put in.

My mind not where it should be.

The scene still fresh.

---------------------------------

"Randi.... What is going on? How did you fail so badly?" My father asked as he sat next to me.

"You wouldn't understand."

"Randi they are saying things, whispering about you being possessed by an evil god, from what I heard you did some... Oh my gods."

"Yeah.... I am confused too." I muttered, hands holding each other with my gaze on them but not seeing anything as I thought of what I had done.

 Renva couldn't do it, she abandoned the fight.

I looked at her as she sat off to the side in shame and wouldn't look our way.

Your heart is too loving.

"Randi down now." I was told, the trainer so mad that he said nothing more, I sighed and did so.

Killing this Black named wyvern would have broken her, I see that, this was a lost battle since the start.

I stopped at the middle and pulled my sword out and lit a flame in my other hand.

As the stone wall fell, I let a burst of my wyvern fire burst forth and fill the little holding space with flame making the wyvern screech.

I jumped back when a jet of almost pure white flames came out, the stone bubbling like heated water, this is bad.... A plasma breath, the hottest fire ever known.

I dropped my defenses as the brightness lowered and I could see again.

I heard a chocked back cry and I instantly knew it was Renva.

"Even you?" I muttered, asking the familiar green and ocher scaled wyven. "Soren?"

He hissed and breathed fire at me making me side step, this is way to easy.

I saw him sniff around and chirp, looking for a certain someone.

He looked back at me and I whipped my sword up.... Hand stalling in the air...

He looked at me with that one green eye.... So much trust.... No fear....

"Oh to the depths of darkness with me." I hissed, stupid Renva.

I sheathed my sword and held up my hand, coldly staring at the wyvern.

He stalked over, plasma that was still in its orange fire form sparking in his open mouth, hissing at me.

What does Renva do?

I sighed and did a somewhat bad whistle making him tilt his head as I took a step closer, ignoring the yells.

I placed my palm on the helmet stuck on his head, patting the cold metal before the metal collar was yanked with the heavy chain, forcing him back into his stone cage screeching.

I watched without moving the display.

After that I was even forced to see the blind healer lady to 'chase the monster out of my soul', why did I do that? I could have just walked away, my reputation wouldn't be that fucked if I did, I could have said he looked way to weak to be worth a fight and been given another wyvern.

But...

Would I have been able to kill that one?

And why can't I answer this questions?

"--andi? Are you listening to me?"

"Sorry dad just... Thinking" I stood up. "Be back soon, I need to go on a walk, alone." I didn't wait for his answer and just left.

I wasn't surprised to find her sitting by the edge of the water, knees to her chest.

"You know that was stupid.... To not even try." I said standing next to her and watching the waves.

"I know." She wrote in the sand before looping her arm back around her knees.

"Yeah.... It is getting bolder, your wyvern I mean, how else would it be in this situation otherwise.... It trusts humans too much now because it trusts the three of us."

She nodded.

"It will die soon Renva." I looked down at her and she looked up at me, her eyes red.... Tears.

"Why did you do it?" I knew what she was asking about.... Clearly.

"I..." I sighed. "I don't know." I shook my head before looking at her as she raised a brow making me sigh yet again. "I couldn't, I looked into it's eyes and I couldn't, it didn't fear me, not one bit, it trusted me.... Even in its attacks it was trying to scare me more then hurt me, it was to easy to get out of the way.... It didn't want to hurt me.... I couldn't hurt it.... Not for my peace of mind, not for Thora's, not for its.... And not for yours."

"But Soren is just a wyvern to you."

"Not just a wyvern.... Your wyvern.... You've suffered enough in this life for me to not add on more if I can avoid it."

No more word was added as I crossed my arms and looked back towards the wave in the far.

Standing there as she sat near was in an odd way, calming.

Your wyvern? That's why I didn't kill him? For peace of mind?

No it wasn't.

It was because this plague of hers has won.

If I called Renva a traitor for loving wyverns....

Then I am no better then she is...
