Nodding silently, not phased by the growl that resonated through the cave. Obviously Malachi found a tender spot, seemed they both had harsh histories. Not wanting to break the relative calmness they had together, he decided to not press the issue. However, he envied Phoenix one thing....his evil was dead. Malachi couldn't say that. That beast still roamed the earth.
"Wish I could say the same." He said aloud, not even realizing his voice rumbling forth. One day he may have his revenge, but he knew he could not do it alone. No matter his strength or size no one wolf could do it on his own. Unless there was a behemoth of a wolf somewhere, perhaps form a truce for long enough to rid the earth of the monster.
It was a small hope but he clung to it as it formed in his head. Revenge..
He then remembered he was not alone and flickered his eyes back to the fire touched male. "When the storm calms, I'll find you something to help you heal."
After those words, he returned to his usual brooding countenance. He just couldn't figure out what he wanted, what he was supposed to do. Hanging around and helping was certainly not in the plan when he first found Phoenix but his mothers voice in his head seemed to be impossible to tune out.
He sighed in frustration, why couldn't he just figure it out?
Brooding wouldn't solve anything, he knew that. But it was the only thing that came to mind. Was Phoenix better equipped to retaliate his demons? Mmmm that wasn't really a fair question right now. He knew nothing about him, perhaps he was suffering just as much as Mal....maybe even more.
