Reunions {Fawn}

[Hyperion]

HOVER

[attr="class","plbase"]

[attr="class","pltxt"]It had been almost a week since he had returned from his Agoge, and he was acclimating to home life. Something in his blood was calling him away as if the quiet island that he called home. Ina'mos was such a boring place to be after the excitement of his Agoge. A part of him wanted to strike back out and find his destiny, the destiny that his mother had spoken of when she had broken his egg. He had yet to be tested according to the egg's prophecy and he wanted to face this challenge head on and find his glory. So much had changed since he left and if it hadn't been for his mother than Hyperion might have left already to find his destiny. As it was he knew that he would miss Messoria if he did decide to leave now and he had only just returned. Resting for a few days had suited him as he begun to realize that even with Goliath gone, Kairos was still a pillar of strength. Hyperion would offer his half-brother any assistance he needed to keep the pack united. As it was the majority of the ranks were filled with his sire's relatives. They all shared the same blood and that brought them together. Blood was an important thing to Hyperion and he believed that his full blooded family were his most important allies. His sisters Nimue and Morrigan were long gone, Croix was off to his Agoge, and Fawn was somewhere on this island. He hadn't seen their sister since they were both little and from what he could remember he hoped that she grew into a beauty. That would mean more work for him keeping all the unattached males away from her. He chuckled at the idea of chasing the males away. He would never get the chance to look out for his other two sisters, so he supposed Fawn would have to suffer the brunt of his brotherly affection.

He couldn't remember much about her other than she was a feisty little thing, who resembled an infant deer. Their parents had named her very accurately and he supposed that had been the point. Where the origin of her name was obvious the origin of the rest of his siblings names was not. Walking along he tried to see if anything within the tiny island had changed while he was away. There were some new pack members that he was actively avoiding, just because he wasn't in the mood to be accommodating. He was still working through the anger that he felt because of his father's departure. Goliath hadn't been particularly close with Hyperion, but the fact that he had left Messoria high and dry had made him furious. Hyperion supposed that he didn't know anything about love or what about it could have forced the Emperor away. He wouldn't understand until he found a love of his own. He never thought about finding a mate, assuming that when the time was right he would find a female. Nothing like the harem that his father had kept, he wanted to find someone that would be completely and totally his.

Moving about he caught a familiar scent, one that he didn't mind seeing. It was his sister. It had been months since he had seen her and he wanted to see just what she had grown into. Picking up his feet he pushed his way through the thickening foliage trying to pinpoint where she was coming from. "Little sister. Come out lest the big bad wolf find you and eat you up." His deep timbre echoed out into the surrounding woods. His words were teasing, reminding him of a time when they had not a care in the world. That time was gone now. Fawn

[Fawn]

In days passed, Fawn had been a busy girl. Bonding with family and friends alike, she was learning Kairos wasn't as boring as she thought when she was little..or should she say younger since she would always be classed as little? Hmm...Anyway, what was at one time a constant battle amongst other balls of fur for attention had become a more level playing field. Fawn had gained a measure of respect from the giants since she helped with the conquest led by now Emperor Typhon and frankly she loved it. Pride wasn't really her thing but it still felt nice to be seen as something other than being just another female.

Having spent time with Mother, which had been long over due, Fawn was now on her own, looking for her next adventure. Thinking about swimming over the expansive waters to the other side and searching out what had to be see there was close to her mind. But with Agoge still in play for many, including her brother Croix, she figured it would probably be best to wait. After all, she didn't want anyone to think she was trying to unofficially participate. A laughable idea.

A voice broke her thoughts and she stopped at the sound of it. It was so familiar yet seemed to have deepened and matured in the time he had been away. Smiling as a fitting remark formed in her head, she turned around and ran towards it, calling out as she did so, "He wouldn't eat me. I'm too cute for that! But in reality he'd step on me and not even notice I was there." Arriving at her brother, the one that looked so much like mother, Fawn craned her neck up as he now towered over her by about two feet. "See? I was right, your big feet would block out the sun as you innocently walked over me." Grinning, she straightened onto her hind legs, supporting herself with her front paws on his forelimb to try to have a more eye to eye look at him, "I've missed you, Hyp. You big lug." 

Her signature blend of sarcasm and sweetness had made some unsure of what to make of her, as if they didn't have a sense of humor. While Hyperion had been gone for a long time, she wondered if he could tell she meant no real harm with her words. She didn't watch her tongue like she did with mother, he would just have to learn. A big guy like him could take a few jabs, she figured. 

He had grown so much, she still felt like a pup to him. But she knew Mother and herself were of a similar stature so she had that for perspective. "Aww c'mon Hyp! Did you miss your annoying little sister at all?" She knew he was closest to mother and secretly she thought it was sweet, but of course she would never say anything about it.

There they were an mottled black brute with dazzling green eyes and his tiny dappled sister who inherited their fathers bright blue orbs. No one would think they were related, she mused much like she did when she and Messoria were together. But blood was stronger than sheer looks. 

Hyperion
OOC: I'm excited for this!!!

[Hyperion]

He heard her sweet voice before too long as she ran towards him. Her lithe frame crashed through the underbrush in her enthusiasm to get to him. A smile played on his lips at his little sisters comments. She seemed so much tinier now than she had been when he had left the island months before. It seemed as though in the absence of physical growth his sister had become even more beautiful. Hyperion chuckled at the thought of chasing off all of her suitors, for she was far to precious to allow any of the youth just waltz in and snap her up. "Are you telling me I have fat feet?" He fair shouted the exclamation before stomping about around her, trying his best to make the ground shake. He was careful not to squish her in his play however. The long weeks he had spent away from his pack had been devoted t growing up and becoming an adult. Now here he was playing with his sister as if they were pups again. She was the same as he remembered, bold and extremely beautiful. Despite his overwhelming devotion to his mother he still loved his sisters and held them very dear. Croix was of course a male and it would be strange for Hyp to show him such affection. He continued to bumble about trying to make as much noise as he could, his frame taking on the persona of a giant.

He was still when she planted her feet on him trying to stand up to his height. She was so tiny and sometimes he forgot how much smaller she was compared to all of the rest of their brood. "Miss you? Hmm I don't suppose that I did. There is not time for missing little annoying sisters in the Agoge." He but jested of course, trying to get a rise out of Fawn. In truth he had missed all of his siblings. When the news had come that Nimue and Morrigan had left Kairos, he had been upset. There had been no chance to say goodbye or to even find out where they were going. New came and went that Nimue was an alpha now, leading a pack of her own somewhere in he south. He was proud of her, but missed her all the same. "Of course I missed you Fawn. Now tell me what I have missed during my absence. I want to know what mischief you have been getting into." She had always been adventurous so any tales to be told were sure to pique his interest. He was interested either way because she was his sister and he wanted to know everything about the time he had been away from his family. Every little detail that he could manage to find out.

Fawn

[Fawn]

The picture he made stomping around was fit for another set of giggles from the dapples girl. Of course, she wasn't afraid, he would never hurt her. "No I didn't say you were fat. Well maybe you are compared to me." It wasn't true, she could easily see the corded muscles ripple underneath his dark pelt. He had changed so much. No more soft puppy fur and little round body, that was long gone and replaced by a thick, long pelt and heavy, strong muscles wrapping around his limbs and torso. But his face was the same to her. Nothing in the world would keep her from recognizing those bright eyes and handsome chiseled features.

When he said he hadn't missed her at all, she punched his shoulder which only seem to magnify how little her paws were to him. "What? You're too good for me now that you made a name for yourself over there?" Pushing off of him so her little form could level out and supported herself. "Oh me?" She rocked her hips to one side in an exaggerated flick of her tail, "Nothing a big warrior like you would be bothered with." She smiled teasingly, "Ty invited me to help conquest the Valyn lands. Uncle Saba made sure no harm came to me. Even though I didn't actually fight, I used my charms you can be sure." Charms! Right! She giggled as she recalled the Alphess' son that she made her personal target in a battle of wits and gained several of her pack mates favor for tearing him down so sweetly. "For some odd reason, the Valyn wolves didn't share my sense of humor, though."

She stopped talking at this point since she still didn't know if Hyp would think she was just gloating now. Yes she was proud of how things went and honored she was taken along, yet she didn't want to place to much importance on herself. The others did the real dirt work. "Other than that, I've been learning how to make friends. It's hard. You know I can't pay attention for long...But Olympus seems to get me."

Shaking her head a little, she flicked her eyes back to her brother, "Enough about me! What was your adventure like? Is Agoge as hard as they make it out to be?" Surely it wasn't a piece of cake, but she rather speculated it may have been blown out of proportion by some.

Hyperion

[Hyperion]

Hyperion paused in his play stomping to listen to his sister. Tales of the conquest had reached his ears, but not with enough detail to satisfy his curiosity. He was a little jealous that he had missed the battle that drove the nest of females away from their borders. Their ideals almost the complete opposite of Kairos. They were a danger of that much Hyperion was convinced. Keeping males subservient in a pack ruled by women. He had no idea how a pack like that even functioned. He was so proud of Fawn's bravery and strength. It was quite an achievement that she could tell tales of. Not even he had any stories as grand as a conquest. She was so excited about everything that had gone on here, and he couldn't help but admit that he was entranced. If it was important to her than it was important to him. It wasn't long before she turned the topic to her making new friends. Hyperion supposed there was no shortage of people on this island to make a friend of. In fact Hyperion had little to no friends outside of his own family members. He was happy to keep listening to her until she mentioned a name that he didn't recognize. One that was very obviously male.

His hulking frame tensed where he stood and he frowned down at his little sister. "Olympus? What part of you does he 'just get'? Do I need to have a talk with this male?" Hyperion didn't like the idea of his sister spending time with some male that he didn't know. His intentions towards Fawn were unknown. Even though he knew Fawn could take care of herself, but he wanted to take care of his family. With his father gone, that made him responsible for his family's well being. "I don't know if I like the idea of you making friends. Maybe I should keep you with me. That way I can keep my fat eyes on you." He had gone back to teasing, not wanting his sister to see how much this worried him. There was one thing most Kairos males shared was their ginormous size. It was obvious that this male was not Goliath's spawn which meant this Olympus character was either one of Titan's brood or a newcomer. He didn't know which one was worse in his mind.

He didn't think that his Agoge was something worth talking about. His time there was obviously not as interesting as her time here. "The Agoge was not as difficult as I expected. What they didn't tell me was that I needed to sleep light. I almost got eaten my first few nights there." He could joke about it now that he was home, but those first few days had been so hard on him. The fear and confusion of becoming an adult and surviving on his own were almost too much. No the happenings of Kairos were far more interesting than Vor'asa.



Fawn

[Fawn]

She saw it. Right there. The game turned serious as soon as she saw his features harden ever so slightly. Should she not have mentioned Olympus? She didn't think it was something she should hide, after all she hadn't many friends and Olympus was special to her. In a way she never breathed a word of to any living creature. But now her hulking brother seemed troubled about it. But she tried to carry on like she hadn't noticed and answer his questions. "Yes Olympus, the former Generals son. Well one of them, he is a twin." She wasn't sure if that was exactly what she shouldn't have said, the wound of Father leaving was still fresh to Mother and Hyp was so close to her that Fawn hadn't doubted that he felt the pangs of abandonment. She on the other hand, simply seemed to have noticed his departure and didn't really seem to care. Maybe she should have. 

"Olympus gets my humor. He gets my position as an abandoned youngster, even more so than those of Goliath since he had even less time with Titan. He tolerates my tongue better than most around me and doesn't see bothered that I can't pay attention." Suddenly she stopped, she was singing his praises too much. "But he is a huge oaf. Trips over his own feet so much." She finished trying to bring balance of her statements. "What do you mean by having a talk with him?" Her eyes narrowed ever so slightly as she asked it. Was Hyp upset she made a friend with a boy? "Do you think he is trying to replace you as my brother?" Trying to steer clear of any indication that she thought more of him than just a friend, Fawn went down this path of conversation, it seemed safer. 

Sensing that he was trying to lighten the mood, she followed suit like a good little sister and wagged her tail. "You behemoth! You know how hard you'd have to work to keep me occupied enough to not lead you on some wild chase through the forest?" Tilting her head, she winked mischievously and circled him as fast as she could several times. "A little thing like me would slip through your paws."

When he spoke simply of his time in Agoge, she barked in laughter, "What could eat you? They'd be stuffed by the time they would try to eat half of you. A plus side to being the size of a mountain I guess." 


Hyperion

[Hyperion]

It didn't take long for Hyperion to realize that this Olympus meant a little more than a friend to his baby sister. In her eyes his list of faults was much shorter than the list of his praises. The little shine that she got in her eyes was proof enough that she cared a great deal for this male. Enough that she didn't need her big brother butting his head into her business. "He could never replace me as your brother because I am the best brother in the world." He waggled his eyebrows at her as if only to prove his point. There was some doubt in his mind that his family had begun to move on to lives of their own while he was gone. Perhaps it was time for him to find a life of his own now that his Agoge was over. He was too young to breed, but it was never too soon to begin looking for a mate to call his own. He imagined himself with some pretty young female and pups aplenty surrounding him. He would do a better job of being a father than his sire ever could. "I suppose all your perfect big brother could ever hope for is his sister's happiness." He could sense her beginning to get uncomfortable with the topic of Olympus so he decided to change it for now. Afterall it was too early for him to be stepping on her toes just yet.

She joked about being able to slip through his paws and he supposed she was quick enough to succeed. "You might be able to slip through my paws, but how will you escape if I mother you." His body was quick and he did his best to cover her without actually allowing his weight to crush her. "I don't suppose you will be able to wiggle free from this trap." He nuzzled her neck gently with his muzzle as he rolled off of her. "Perhaps I am just not ready to share you with anyone yet." He wasn't entirely sure what it was about the Agoge that had changed him, but his love for his family was something that would never change.

"I don't know what exactly it was that tried to eat me. I woke up to some ugly beast trying to drag me away into the night. Whatever it was seemed to think I would make a good meal." He puffed out his chest at being called a mountain before grinning at his sister. "I don't think I am quite big enough to be a mountain, if I was a mountain than surely I would have crushed you."

Fawn

[Fawn]

Her fears that her brother would continue to disapprove her choice of friends wasn't wiped away although he teased her now. She never had anyone to answer to growing up with the endless amount of pups her father had, everyone was easily distracted with them that she could almost do anything she wished. But she had a feeling things would be a little different now that she was growing, making her way in the pack. She had to forge actual relationships and she definitely wanted her big brother on her side. 

Shoving him lightly with her shoulder, even though she had her doubts that he would move due to light pressure maybe not even notice it. "You can meet him if you'd like? Make sure he won't devour your precious Fawny." She offered sincerely but masked it with a mocking tone. But maybe he would conclude that she was only offering to placate him. "It'd make someone happy." A vague comment of herself wove it's way into the air. She was surprised this friendship was taken so seriously but then again Hyp is the first to show any sign of actually willing to be involved in her life. Of course she knew Messoria loved her, but she had her paws full with her new-ish position. 

Then suddenly he was wrapped around her, covering her little for easily with his and she squealed in laughter, "Ok ok you made your point!" She wiggled in a half hearted attempt to escape, "I'm stuck!" Eventually he rolled off but she stayed laying down, beaming at him. Then the topic of him having to share her came up. "Hyp, one day you'll find a pretty friend who happens to be a girl and I'll dread sharing you." Turning the tables on him wasn't meant to guilt him but just prove her point. "We are family and I don't intend on losing anymore than I already have. You're my brother and I'll pester you always."

She laughed when he told the story of something trying to drag him off in the dead of night. "Maybe it decided you would be to stringy and tough to eat. Oh and you could crush me. I'm just a little flower." She batted her eyes playfully, "But that makes us a good pair. Flowers make mountains pretty and mountains provide for the flowers." 


Hyperion
OOC: sorry it got a bit weird at the end there.

[Hyperion]

Hyperion smiled broadly, the thought of Fawn wanting him to meet her new 'friend' made his very happy. He had felt so disconnected from his family the whole time he had been doing his Agoge. Oblivious to the fact that his sisters had left, his father had left, and Fawn had helped in the conquest. So much had happened while he had been gone, but now he had a chance to interject himself right back into their lives. "I would very much like to meet him. Anything to please you Fawn." He gave her a mock look of adoration before nipping at her ear. It was true that he wanted to meet this Olympus character but it was for mostly selfish reasons. So he knew what was going on in his family's lives. He wanted Fawn to want him in her life. He chuckled at her comments. He could never crush her no matter how delicate she claimed to be. "If you are a flower you must be a rose for you are far too tough to be squished by a mountain like me."

When the topic turned to Hyperion finding a companion of his own he simply tried to avoid it. There was no one on this island who even came close to tempting him and he had other things to focus on. His egg had foretold that his destiny was ahead of him which left little room for him to spend searching for a mate. Besides he wasn't really looking for romance. He would have enough on his plate trying to keep his family safe and provided for. "I don't think so Fawn. I am not destined for romance, no my egg told of glory. Besides you will never have to share me. I am your brother first and always." He nuzzled her behind her neck as if to emphasize his promise. If he ever did find a mate it would no doubt mean that he would have to leave the island to find her. Almost all of the females in Kairos were his siblings or cousins or too old to suit his tastes. More than anything though he hadn't met anyone who just made him want to drop everything and pursue. There were plenty of pretty females all over Ina'mos, some that would make a very good mate, but he didn't want to allow himself to settle for someone he didn't want more than anything else.

Fawn

[Fawn]

She smiled prettily when he said he would be glad to meet Olympus although by his reaction initially to hearing his name, she figured he would do so just so he could see if  his intentions were honorable or something along those lines. nevertheless she was happy he was willing, like their family was starting to knit themselves together after the long stretch of time where only fractures were made. "Thank you, Hyp." She yelped when his teeth grazed her ear but it didn't hurt. she knew he would never hurt her...intentionally.

"A rose...hmm...pretty and tough. I could live with that I suppose." She laughed picturing her little form with a few thorns here and there. an odd thought but it entertained her.

Hyp didn't seem to keen on the idea of finding a girl and she was fine with that. There had been too much time apart that she wanted to bond with him before he went chasing some pretty tail. "I'm your sister first and foremost." She winked, knowing she would probably make the girl go through some hoops before Fawn would accept her as her new sister. "Oh! Your egg! Who read it for you?" She tilted her head, with the shift of wolves in ranks, she wasn't sure if he knew who to take it to when he had returned. "What was in it?" She never really paid attention to what meant what for the Agoge since she was not going and it simply wasn't interesting to her, but now that Hyperion  had gone through it all, she was a bit more curious as to what was involved in the egg ceremony or whatever it was called.

Her paws played with the dirt she stood on, digging shallow graves in the earth as she fidgeted. perhaps they could run together soon and she could unleash her bound up energy. surely it would be quite a race with her slim form against his large, powerful one. she smiled when she thought of it. Yes, great fun.

Hyperion

[Hyperion]

HOVER

[attr="class","plbase"]

[attr="class","pltxt"]When the topic turned to the egg and the fate that been held within Hyperion couldn't help but grin broadly. He had returned home triumphant with his egg in tow. Messoria had met him on the beach after she had heard him call out, and then she had broken his egg. He knew that it was unorthodox for him to request that his mother break the egg, but he didn't care. All of his life his mother had been there to love and support him, more so than anyone else. It just made sense that she would be the one to break his egg. The fate held within was a good one, but not something that he had thought to expect. None the less he was glad that his journey to adulthood was now over and that he could finally move towards whatever destiny lay ahead of him. "Mother broke my egg, almost immediately after I returned from Vor'asa."

Hyperion knew that he felt very strongly towards their mother, and that his adoration was something that others took notice of. Amongst his siblings, both whole and half, Hyperion saw so many males who simply didn't care enough about their family. His mother had given him life, held him within her womb for so many months, and almost died bringing them into the world. His siblings were his first playmates, things that he had learned to love and adore, of course he couldn't let them all see his mushy side. Each and every person within his life was important to him, more so then they could ever possibly imagine. "My egg held my destiny within of course. I have yet to be tested, but when I am I will be victorious." Of that there was no doubt. Hyperion knew that he had been made for greatness. In his youth he had thought that he needed to prove himself to his father, is pack, his siblings. Now he knew that the only person that he needed to prove himself to was himself. Success or failure, he would have to live with himself for the rest of his days.

Hyperion noticed how restless she seemed and he wondered if she was getting tired of staying too long in one place. "Enough of this talk. Let's go and do something fun together." Hyperion hadn't done anything considered to be fun in ages. He ached to play some game or have some competition between the two of them. Fawn

[Fawn]

When he said Mother read his egg, she was not in the least surprised. Unorthodox? Yes. But he was very close to her and it just seemed fitting it's odd little way. "I'm sure Mother loved that you gave your egg to her." A momentary serious but sweet spell from the mischievous Fawn. She was glad to hear it had something good to tell him once cracked open, not that she doubted her lovable brother in the least. He would do great things, it was just a matter of what he felt he wanted to do.

Bouncing to her feet at his proposal of  doing something fun, Fawn dashed in circles around him. "Wanna see if this victorious destiny of yours starts with beating your sister in race? Obviously a wrestling match would be useless, I mean, you don't stand a chance!" Yipping in laughter as she kept up her laps around his hulking form, Fawn waited to see if she could get a reaction out of him. He wanted to play, so she would play! 

It was something she hoped would never change. Even as they grew older and filled Kairos ranks, she knew she would never outgrow the fun and sport of games. Hopefully, others felt the same way. 

Breaking her her pattern, she flew into the bushes and then leapt back shortly after making it to the other side until he gave the affirmative to race or offered another form of entertainment. Dodging under his belly, her fur brushing against the soft under belly fur of his coat, she was determined to not stay in one place long for now. "What do ya say, Hyp?" She barked, her tail whipping back and forth as small oval paws danced over the ground in her speedy ballet.

Hyperion

[Hyperion]

Hyperion smiled recalling his mothers stunned reaction when he had given the news that she would be breaking his egg. To say that she was happy was an understatement. "Of course she was happy. I am her bravest, sweetest, most handsome son. Any mom would be proud of me." He teased his sister as she seemed to bounce around him in circles. To say that talk of play had riled her up was nothing if not true. Blowing off some steam and some energy was something that Hyperion looked forward to as he tried to track his sisters movements. She was a fast little spitfire for sure. Hyperion had nothing on her speed, but what he didn't have in quickness he did make up for in size. The length of his legs was enough to make up for three of her steps. He would count it as an almost fair match. As she took off towards some foliage, Hyperion took a moment to observe his surroundings. Even though he was home it was now ingrained in him to be cautious. Too many close calls on Vor'asa. From what he could tell they were mostly alone, a few critters scurried away at the sound of his sisters approach.

It wasn't until she resurfaced that he gave her his most charming smile before launching after her. The way her slender paws seemed to pick across the earth seemed impossible to him. She barely left a trace as she seemed to float across the ground. Hyperion on the other hand was loud, his gargantuan paws tearing up the earth with each step he took. He imagined Fawn heard thunder as he chased after her. It seemed that he had a thing or two to learn from his little sister when it came to stealth. With each stride he did his best to channel all of his power into his legs, trying to keep pace with her. His stamina was holding out so far, as he practically flew behind her. He wasn't going to let her win that easily, otherwise he would never hear the end of it. "Come on little sister. Give me all you've got." As he said those words he picked up his own pace, determined to use his strength to win the race.

Fawn

[Fawn]

This was just great! She couldn't help but smile as she darted this way and that. The thundering pounding of Hyperion's paws crashing on the ground filled her ears but it was such a lovely sound. Girlish giggles filled the air and a dappled girl flashed by along with her giant shadowy brother. Inside she was rather surprised she could keep up with him for the most part, he had such power and long legs. But it seemed her shorter leaner build let her cut through the brush like a winter breeze. Flattening her ears against her skull to cut down an every inch of resistance she could as she raced forward. Even if she didn't win this race, she was determined to give him a run for his money.

"Scared of being beat by a little girl?" She called to him loudly followed by a laugh. "Let's go, tough guy. That cant be all you got!" She was panting hard with the effort she was putting forth but she couldn't resist the jab. Her sides heaved with every breath she sucked  and her tongue hung out of her mouth comically until she realized the picture she must cut so she tried to focus on keeping it under more control. But as many other things, she didn't keep up with it for very long as she immersed herself back into the fun.

Birds, rabbits and other small animals made good their escape from the ruckus the siblings caused. Taking to the air as the feathered inhabitants scolded the duo in their twittering tongue while the more silent creatures simply darted back and forth from the terror of being so rudely caught off guard. Yet the fear was lost on the young wolf who simply enjoyed this time with her brother. All was about him right now.

Hyperion

[Hyperion]

Oh how good it felt to be chasing after his little sister. There was no time for play on Vor'asa, all of the young wolves there focused on the task of stealing an egg. Sparring and training was most abundant there, but Hyperion had decided to keep to himelf for the most part He didn't want anyone else's help on his quest for glory. The more he could teach and learn on his own the better, in his opinion. Fawn's speed was a perfect match for is strength as she flew over the ground, easily avoiding the obstacles around her. She could duck beneath bushes and trees, ducking between things that Hyperion was too big to avoid. He crashed clumsily through everything she avoided, making a mess of the forest behind him. His sister's taunting words only spurred him to move even faster, throwing himself ahead of her. He could see that her speed was rapidly taking it's toll on her, stamina failing her. He felt much the same as his muscles started to ache. They screamed for oxygen and his lungs began to burn. Even with his mouth agape he couldn't manage to swallow enough air to keep up his pace. Even so he refused to let Fawn beat him. His claws dug savagely into the earth, tearing up everything beneath his paws. All he knew was that if they didn't stop soon, his body would make him pay for it later. "Where shall the finish line be little sister? I am ready to win this race." In reality he was getting too tired to go on for much longer. His tongue lolled out and his breathing was heavy. Even though he had thought he was in great shape, this little race was proving just how much he had allowed his personal training to slip now that he was home. He needed to train harder, do better if he ever expected to be a warrior of Kairos. He was the son of the former emperor and that meant he was expected to do better.
