Silver
Her world crumbled around her, and Kali's harsh, golden gaze tormented her mind until she opened her eyes. They were wide with fright and brimming with tears, but she could not stand to close them. Every breath she drew in was sharp and difficult, as she knew more than several of her ribs were broken. Broken by that.... that.... monster.... The words spoken to her faded into nothing and she could only think of her failure. Her loss.
(Wags, Kali hasn't been this way... much... Petra hasn't, Zaavan hasn't, and Darius hasn't. XD I know what you mean, though, since Hann has pretty much been like this forever, but I personally think that the life that a lot of these characters are living is just plain hell. I mean, Silver wants to meet and exceed the expectations of others, and she just wants to be strong in Kali's eyes. Being defeated like this in front of the wolves that are pretty much the only "family" she has, and realizing what a failure she thinks she is might kinda warrant this reaction.... just sayin'. =P)
Hann
He walked alongside her, his steps even despite his wounded state. There was a certain kind of dignity, perhaps, that he wanted to regain, but maybe it was foolish to think that he could do that by simply walking smoothly. Oh, Lupus... I am a fool... he thought silently, letting out a quiet sigh and drooping his ears slightly.
