Art:Little SisterIt was sometime around midnight I think, I didnt own a watch so I was never sure. I had to take my runes out at night because they were both nocturnal, my little Chaos and Unknown. No, that is her name. I called her Unknown. And before you ask, yes, it causes heaps of confusion, but I think she likes it that way, whenever someone starts asking she seems to smile and giggle. I was walking the two through the forrest, it is so easy to get lost in there, and we just about always do, but the fox flame runes always lead us home to Benathorn's camp.
It was a full moon that night, the fog lay thick in the woods so I could barely see a few metres in front of me, but I was guided by the dim glow of Chaos' eyes.We wandered as we always did, little Unknown following her dad as he glided and leapt through the leaves.They did vanish and re-appear all over the place, but even when I couldnt see them they never left me, they were always close by.
Something wasnt right though. Chaos seemed distracted, he looked as though he were searching for something, and he wasnt playing with his daughter as he usualy did, he just left her to follow him. I had never seen him act so strangely, at first I tried to believe it was my mind playing tricks on me, or maybe the fog was getting to him. But he didnt change, and I was starting to worry.
"Okay, I think we've had enough for tonight. Come on you two, we're going home now." Usually they would be by my side at the second I said that, and would call the foxflames to lead us home, but Chaos didnt move, he just looked at me and stared, while unkown looked at him and at me worriedly, unsure if she was to listen to me or her dad.
"Come on, it'll be dawn soon." They just sat there for a moment, and I figured if I turned around and started walking they would follow me, but to my surprise Chaos dove down from his branch and hovered in front of me for a second, grabbed my sleeve between his talons and tugged.
"Ow! Chaos! What-"'Follow!' He whispered to me in my mind. Before I could finish he was flying away deeper into the forrest and Unkown was following him. I had to run to keep up with the two, I guess I had no choice but to follow them.
"Chaos what's wrong?" I had asked by the time I had managed to catch up and run by his side as he flew, but he just looked straight ahead, his nose twitching and ears flicking every now and then. I dont know why I asked, he never answered me. Even though we were bonded, he rarely ever spoke to me telepathicly. He liked being mysterious that way, only ever telling me something straight up if he really needed to. Otherwise he loved being vague.
I ran after him for a few minutes before my foot got caught on a tree root, I tripped, rolled down a slope, and landed face down in the dirt.
"Ow..." Brushing the dirt of my arms, I looked up to see Chaos land beside me, Unknown next to him, and In front of me, a luminescent, purple egg.A few glowing beads sat around it, and printed right in the middle was an orange, skull-like symbol. As I picked it up in my jacket I my thoughts began to race, Unknown sat on my shoulder and stared at it with me for a few seconds.
"Chaos, this is a..." 'A rune egg. Not mine though. Not anyone's anymore.'An abandoned rune egg. I thought.
"No. Its not no one's. It's ours. She'll be part of our family."I could feel movement within the egg, and it was like I could almost hear her, like she was talking to me.
She. I dont know how I knew that, I just did.
'You know her name to.' I'd almost forgotten that Chaos can hear my thoughts aswell.
I wrapped her up in my jacket and held her close in my arms, Unknown climbed under the black fabric with her and fell asleep, she was already fond of her new sister.
"Erebos." I said not taking my eyes of the egg.
"Her name is Erebos."
