As i left Luca's grave and body behind i wondered if it was worth it, was waking Luca worth his hatred, will killing Leroy actually wake my brother, will having blood on my claws be worth my brother's awakening, will becoming a fallen, a dark fae be worth seeing my brother again.
"Yes it is, it will always be worth it" I whispered to myself. My clunky boots pressed lightly on the grass within my home, the grass popping right back up as if i was never there.
Small forest creatures ran around in front of my feet, Wolpertingers scurried in between my legs, the the large rabbit with fangs, deer horns and owl wings being even more annoying then usual. the cute little shit.
"Go eat your roots you litte rats" I sneered, amusement in my words. Then Luca came back to mind, a frown came to my lips as i whispered under my breath.
"Dammit Luca why'd you fall in love with such a worm, now your stuck in your tree your roots getting deeper every day, it's been 3 years Luca! Fuck, luca why'd you do it"
My voice becoming hoarse, i felt like crying all over again, it was always just Luca, me and The Monarch, our little family. Then Leroy came along injured and in need of help, he lived with us for 6 months, half a year but within that time frame Luca fell in love with him - True Love - so when Leroy robbed us blind and killed The Monarch - our mama - Luca was devastated, he went searching for Leroy for days, he wanted to know why he'd do this to us, why'd he do this to him, were he then found him in a pub drunk off his arse and just about having sex with some stranger.
Luca then came home dull and dead eyed, he told me what he saw and what he's been doing, and that very same night he went to ma- The Monarchs burial pond, and he grounded himself hiding away in his tree.
I thought it was just a phase, that what he had for that low life scum wasn't True Love, but it was, he had bonded with that man, and the only way to bring him back is to hurt his bonded, bring that thing close to death so Luca will wake up!
Growling under my breath i brought my claw up to my bicep, taking the ribbon that was tied around it, i cought up my hair and tied it in to a ponytail. I wasn't sure how I'd find Leroy but i would, I'd fine that fucker and drag him to Luca's trunk and bleed him out right there. I continued to make my way out of the forest and towards the nearest town.
There had to be some clues in the nearby town on Leroy's whereabouts, that freak. A angry sneer on my face.
"I promise you Leroy, when i find you i will make you hurt!"

Just as i reached the edge of the forest i felt a chill down my spine, looking around i don't see anything, but then i noticed, it was to quiet, no birds or jackalopes, but then behind a tall tree i saw the bloody hoof prints.
"Fuck"
And out leaped a unicorn, broken horn sharp and dangerous, serrated fangs protruding from it's mouth, muzzle covered in blood and crazed blood red eyes.
I immediately jump back, slashing my claws out but i hit air, the unicorn leaps at me again making contact and knocking me over, it's teeth biting into my arm,tearing at my flesh and ripping through my arm, to bad for it my my free claw dug into it's face and slashing over the crazed eyes, it reared back, freaking out at being blinded, before stomping back down just barely missing me, dust flew up around us, i slashed out again, aiming for the monster's neck, and, i hit, blood spews out, splattering against my face and chest, the beast reared back, throwing it's body every which way before toppling over.
Pushing my body up off the ground, a shakey sigh leaving my throat, i clutched my messed up arm as silvery blood spilled between my fingers. I start running my magic over my wound, my hands shaking the entire time.
"Fuck... This is sign isn't it... Fuck Luca! You Dumbass!"
