With one knee hitting the dirt Thaddeus breathed hard, his chest heaving in and out in a quick rhythm. [b]”You can’t hide behind those bone puppets forever!”[/b] Thaddeus screamed angrily getting back to his feet and charging Xevoaren, without the slightest hesitation the black dragon raised another pile of bones from the ground and threw it at Thaddeus, he smirked cockily knowing it would piss Thaddeus off something terrible. [b]”Get out OF MY WAY!!!!”[/b] With a loud growl Thaddeus rammed straight into the pile of bones and scattered them to the four winds, as he emerged on the other side there was a broken femur bone in his hand with a sharp jagged edge. [color=purple][b]”You can’t touch this Mesmer boy!”[/b][/color] Xevoaren mocked Thaddeus, [b]”I will show you ya damn weak bastard Dragon!!!!”[/b] Xevoaren narrowed his eyes at the insult as they became furious. [color=purple][b]”What did you call me you Mesmer filth!?”[/b][/color] Xevoaren was pissed now, he would screw the necromancy and charge Thaddeus himself, he would not whether such an insult. [b]”That's right dragon, come get your arse kicked!!!”[/b][/color] The two charged at each other, the impact was imminent as both would strike a lethal blow to the other. Neither one of them however saw the large tail coming that would crash into both of them and throw them ailing head over heel towards the far wall which both would crash into and crumble to the ground. [color=gold][b]”That's enough from both of you. I tire of your childish insults. Both of you need to quit pissing the other off.[/b][/color] Alduin was direct and cold as he instructed the two to stop insulting each other all the time. [b]”But he started it!”[/b] Thaddeus yelled pointing at Xevoaren whom gave him the evil eye, [color=purple][b]”You always start it Mesmer boy!”[/b][/color] Thaddeus growled as he shakily got to his feet, [b]”You want some more of this weakling!?”[/b] Xevoaren got up to his feet and got right in Thaddeus’s face, smoke was billowing out of his mouth, [color=purple][b]”Bring it on half breed filth!”[/b][/color] The sudden rumble inside the cave came out of nowhere as both of them were rocked violently off their feet. [color=gold]”I said that's enough!”[/color] Alduin's yell was frightening as it shook the very foundations of the cave they were all in. Both would barely get out of the way when a blast of intense fire came crashing between them creating a barrier to separate them, the heat from it was excruciating to them both as they shielded themselves until it was done. [color=gold][b]”I will tolerate this no longer, it is time that both of you begin to grow. You must move beyond childish name calling if it be from each other or another outside of these walls. In this world, there will be many who will wield words like a weapon, to ensnare you, to trap you, to use your emotion against you. Out there it only takes one wrong move to end your life, even one who has no strength can strike a lethal blow if given the chance. To survive in this world you must be strong not just physically but mentally, now the both of you, apologize to the other. Now.”[/b][/color] Both of them knew that was not a request but a command neither one would be dumb enough to ignore. Both of them got to their feet, their heads pointed towards the ground with frustrated looks on their faces, neither one of them enjoyed being scolded both figuratively and literally. Neither one of them was willing to say anything at first, it seemed like neither of them would even look at each other nonetheless apologize, especially the mesmer boy, so when Thaddeus was the first to speak, even Alduin was a bit taken aback. [b]”Alduin is right, me and you are supposed to be like brothers and lately all we do is hurt each other's feelings. I don’t know… I guess maybe I’m just jealous of you… having a father that cares for you… It never used to bother me but the more I see you two together the more I realize I have nobody and I take it out on you. I’m sorry Xevoaren, I will try to do better and I promise to never call you weak again.”[/b] Xevoaren was silent for a moment, the expression in his eyes changed to that of understanding, he would approach Thaddeus as his body would slowly transform itself into the form of a teenager that appeared to be the same age as Thaddeus. [color=purple][b]”It is okay, I should not call you filth, we are brothers, maybe not by blood but brothers nonetheless, the day you saved me made you so even if it was not on purpose. An you are not alone, you have us, were your family now, I apologize too.”[/b][/color] Xevoaren stretched his hand out with a smile, Thaddeus would grab it as he smiled too, warmly.[/hider] Thaddeus leaned silently against the cart choosing to remain outside, it was better that there was no more trouble. He was not all that welcome at this particular inn due to some problems he had with a certain group of patrons who frequent it and subsequently got chairs broken over their heads. Better that he just keep a visual on their goods lest those bandits try to hide among the crowd and steal from them. He sighed deeply, staring down at the ground, it was very much unlike him to be so gloomy, usually he was the life of the party, hell he was the whole party, but these memories kept assaulting him. Everytime one came back to him it chipped away at him. Alduin and Xevoaren were gone and he would never see either one of them again and this by itself made him feel alone, very much like he was before they had found him. It was stupid to think he was alone given all the people he considered friends and considered him a friend. The only real good thing he had was Thomas and he knew one day he too would grow and move beyond these lands and seek his place in this world. He awaited that with anticipation but also with dread, he supposed without realizing it that he lulled himself into a cozy existence that was never meant to last. Looking up at the large disguised Pyrona he couldn’t help but think she was just as impulsive as Xevoaren used to be. She definitely had the same level of intensity that he had, not to mention the fact that she was adept at necromancy. The thing they both shared perfectly though is how annoying they could be with their egos. Wasn’t the first time he had heard a dragon talking about how lower beings weren’t worth their time. As if on cue Pyrona’s voice meant his ears, he looked up at her quietly. She was still going on about doing that spell she wanted to do on his sword. He didn’t really understand what she wanted to do but he supposed they had some time before they move on, so long as she didn’t touch his sword… [b]”Fine. What do I do?”[/b][/color]
