The midnight sky illuminated amongst the scales of the two ancient beasts. A thick line of tension hung within the air, exact words that left the strangers mouth, “ because I'm the one who killed her. ” sent thundering chills down the quadwing's backside, tingling at his claw joints. An intruder, a new face, coldly ripped away the last bits of feelings for having a family, having a loving mother.
An intense growing sensation clung to the back of the beasts throat, as vibrant flames arose from his jaws, erupting forth into the air, exploding off into various directions. Much like a pocket of pent up rage, the attack ensued.
Wide sage pupils refocused on the sudden burst of fiery light, skimming past Ketu's once stilled form.
“ Woah. . ” a small mumble left the her maws, catching a glimpse of the angered beast. Flames cackled, roaring above ears, stinging the air with an uncomfortable heatspike. The quadwing suddenly bolted forth, flames dribbled from his lips, traveling down his chin.
“ listen to me first, allow me to explain! ” useless cries filled the air, rapid wing flaps stirred up the clouds. Another explosive charge, more powerful, more lethal than the last exploded from Radar's mouth.
“ Explanation? of what? your excuses for murder!? ” venomously, bit back Radar, curling back his lips to snarl lowly towards the other, a rather unsettling sight. Suddenly, his form was sent barreling forward, as canines sunk into the forearm of Ketu.
The splatter of crimson decorated his pale white lips, firmly latching onto the beasts arm. an ear—splitting cry rattled the air, as for more rapid, uncoordinated movements were produced by the thrashing dragon-ness. A blur of emerald tore away the quadwing's attention, which was rather focused on the draconic's forearm. The figures scales shifted into a dark, eerie jet black, occasionally flowing with various other colors aswell.
Kitkat. Her once soft and elegant embers now dark pinpricks of anger. Her emerald scales had quickly changed to a deep red.
Ketu attempted to slash blindly towards the deer hybrid, yet unfortunately missed her shots. Her cleaves clumsily dragged over shimmering jet black scales, hardly leaving marks of lacerations. Tight jaws clamped over the thrashing females throat, clamping rather immediately upon contact.
Claws rapidly tore at bare, exposed flesh of the draconic. Thick streams of ruby liquid leaked from recent wounds, beginning to sting from the cold – to – hot air. Craning her neck sideways, the ebony beast's maws enlightened with auburn flames, spilling down onto the snowy beast behind the attacking female.
As the other let out a strangled cry, the flames hissed, burning his delicate, sparkling scales. Radar's tightened grip on her forearm subsided, releasing the limb from his grasp. Four wings flapped rhythmically against the air, hovering. His golden hues averted onto the two thrashing females, watching in silence.
Claws wrapped around the deer dragon's maws, forcefully tearing off the female. Sauntering backwards with a pained expression, the ebony beast faced the two with a darkened glare, holding close her mangled forearm, bfore hastily turning, Ketu glided off into the moonlit sky.
Pants broke the silence, a deadpanned expression rested upon the white beasts muzzle. A muffled cry tore within the beasts throat, gazing towards the female, he gave an apologizing stare towards the hurt deer.
Having the inability to process the amount of information given, he'd turn sharply. Four wings folded in on themselves, plummeting towards the earth. Whilst the beast traveled downwards, his form soon dissipated from view. Leaving the deer hybrid alone beneath the canopy of starlight, left in confusion, and overall heartbreak and sorrow.
—— 🌱 ——
Pawsteps rattled the earth, followed by miniature sprouts of crystalline emerged from the vegetation after each passing step. A muzzle pointed downwards, struck with an overall bitter feelings of rage and grief, held the beasts posture together.
Coming to a sudden halt, lightning blue hues flickered onto a cascaded shadow blocking their pathway, meeting sharp slits of cyan instead. The two strangers stared longingly, lost in one anothers hues, not daring to move nor speak, rather just staring.
