Dropping her on the ground, Nathan began his rant "just what the hell were you thinking!? No, scratch that, you [i]weren't[/i] thinking! I had assumed that nobles had to undergo some kind of training to control their emotions. Well if I was right about that then you clearly failed that class. You just walked [i]right into[/i] his trap. It only took me so long to stop you because I was so stunned that you fell for his taunts so easily. I mean honestly; just talking about your dad and calling you cutie-pie!? Well now I know how to beat you in a fight, just push those two buttons and you suddenly lose the ability to think rationally. If I wasn't there, you could have been hurt badly, or even killed, and for what; to kill him to sooth your wounded ego!?" His anger spent, Nathan took a breath before continuing "and before you go saying that I just 'don't understand', I do. Remember that crazy lady who drugged me and convinced the king to capture us? Well I wanted to kill her. I wanted to kill her so much that I almost forgot to breath. But I didn't. You want to know why? It wasn't because I was worried about my own life, it was because I was worried about the rest of you. I wasn't going to risk your life just because someone bruised my ego......not again. The last time I let my anger get the better of me, people [i]died[/i], and all because I was being a selfish idiot. There is no way in hell that I was just going to watch someone make the same stupid mistake as me" he finished
