How hard was it to actually forgive yourself?

All his life, he had always told his brothers that it was not their fault whenever something wrong happened that was out of their control. Blaze's tendency to sleepwalk is an example of that. Quake also tends to forgive them for anything that they had done wrong, provided that they are truly sorry for it.

But not himself. No, he just cannot forgive himself. He doesn't know how to, and even if he did, he won't. He doesn't want to.

It's all his fault.

It's all his fault that Thunderstorm is dead.

He held his brother tightly in his arms, silent tears streaming out from his golden-brown eyes.

Thunderstorm looked pale, paler than his brothers had ever seen him. There was a huge gaping hole on his stomach, the slow trickle of blood staining his clothes. The lightning elemental's eyes were open, but the scarlet red orbs were devoid of life.

Quake glared at Retak'ka with pure unadulterated hatred and for the first time in his life, the elemental master felt fear. He shivered at the dark look that the earth elemental was giving him, a look that promised pain without mercy.

The earth elemental gently laid down his brother on the ground and stood up, not taking his eyes away from Retak'ka.

The gentle mother was now gone. In his place was a rage-filled earth elemental who wanted to tear Retak'ka apart limb by limb. It was like something has snapped inside of him when Thunderstorm died.

"You," Quake growled, summoning back his earthen gloves. "I won't forgive you from killing Thunderstorm!"

Golden-brown eyes flashed red as Quake moved at inhuman speed. He only had one goal in mind, and that is to cause pain to the person who killed his brother.

Everyone could only stare as Retak'ka and Quake viciously battled with one another. The ground shook, and earth spikes appeared from the ground. Lassos of light erupted from Retak'ka's back, trying to destroy the earth spikes, but more and more kept coming.

The rest kept their distance from the said fight, knowing that at his state, Quake will be able to handle it. However, that does not stop them from worrying about their brother.

What are morals? Whatever they are, Quake threw all of them to trash as he punched, kicked, and even toyed with his victim. There was barely a scratch on the earth elemental, while the other was covered in cuts and bruises.

Retak'ka, seeing that he won't be able to land an attack on the earth elemental, tried to attack the others, but Quake wouldn't even let him go beyond an arm's reach. Every time Retak'ka tried to get away, he would find a part of his body broken by the earth elemental.

Rage had blinded Quake to the point that he did not know of anything else anymore. His mind only focused on Retak'ka and on getting his revenge.

It wasn't obvious at first glance, but Thunderstorm was the closest element to everyone. Perhaps it's the unique way he shows how much he cared for them all.
