Red Fern Forest he's got a bad reputation

Askan only had to step back a little to avoid the brunt of Lorcan's attack. It didn't even hurt, not really. Just a quick tug on his skin before the bastard lost his grip and clamped down on empty air. He didn't remember it being this easy before and yet, it felt as though this was how it was supposed to be.

Having been in Lorcan's position before, completely and utterly outmatched, maybe Askan should have taken pity on him. But he didn't, nor did the thought even occur to him. Was this what Savion had felt that day, atop that dreaded hill? Powerful,unstoppable even? The thought left a foul taste in Askan's mouth.

As much as Lorcan seemed to think it wasn't over, it was. It really really was. Lorcan was a mess, even more so than before. Aside from the fact that he was wobbling on his feet and panting like a doe giving birth, a couple of gashes now crisscrossed his muzzle. This would be over before he even knew it.

Rolling his shoulders, Askan charged forward again and once more Lorcan tumbled down, though at least this time he landed on the shore. He would not drown today, unless he wanted to keep pushing his luck that is.Pinning him down with all of his weight-which was a lot, Askan was a beefy boy- Askan bent down and leaned in real close, too close, so that their eyes were level. A thunderous snarl reverberated from his chest as he stared Lorcan down.

"I won't tell you again. Leave. Now." He pulled away just a little, only to lunge forward and snap at air just by his throat."Or I will kill you. Do you understand?"It was a bluff, but satisfying to say nonetheless.

Panting heavily, still struggling to fully catch his breath, Lorcan turned to face the dark male with his teeth bared and his tail held high. Lorcan might have been exhausted and hungry, and now sporting new gashes across his face that were beginning to sting, but he was not willing to let the dark male get away with almost drowning him. He was prepared to fight back and defend himself – or at least, he thought he was.

Lorcan tensed his body and leaned forwards on shaky limbs as Askan charged for him, sharp claws digging into the soft snow-covered earth as he attempted to brace himself for the inevitable impact. However when their bodies collided, his body did not remain steadfast to that spot. He was weak and flimsy. Once again he felt gravity pulling him down and with a heavy thump he landed on the ground, Askan’s heavy weight on top of him. Lorcan wheezed, struggling to breathe, as his golden eyes glared up to meet the bright yellow stare of the bully.

The malnourished male flinched as Askan snarled. He tried to wriggle free but it was no use. Struggling only made it harder to breathe. It was at that moment that Lorcan knew the fight was over. He had lost and the male pinning him down had the advantage. He whined as Askan demanded he leave, his golden eyes begging for mercy, as he shifted his weight a little as he prepared to pick himself up off the ground – but then Askan suddenly lunged for his throat and Lorcan squeaked, like a pathetic welp, as his eyes clenched shut in fear.

Then something happened...

A feeling of warmth spread up his hind legs and Lorcan released a desperate whimper.

No! Not again.

His bottom lip trembled as he nodded at the dark male’s words and then, wounded and humiliated, he scrambled to his paws and fled as fast as his legs would allow, tail tucked, leaving a patch of yellow snow on the ground behind him.

He'd never be able to look at @Askan in the face again.

sometimes, two people have to fall apart to realise

how much they need to fall back together

What the fuck? What was that smell? Askan's nose wrinkled and-ugh! Did he just... piss himself? He would have laughed, because it was hilarious that he peed himself out of fear. But it was also really really pathetic, the little yelp that passed his lips just made it all the more so. Like the final nail in the coffin.

Askan didn't try and stop him from running, he just watched him go with a look of blatant disgust on his face. The Edge Lord had seen a lot in his days, and gotten into a lot of scraps, but he'd never seen anyone piss out of fear before. This was a new one for him, he felt a little out of his element honestly. Askan watched him go for a moment and felt a rush of smugness as he saw him stumble off with his tail between his legs. His gaze then flickered to the yellow snow and the repulsion returned tenfold.

Piddle ,that was his name now. Fucking loser.

Burying the piss pile with a kick or two of snow, Askan turned his attention to the stream. With all the commotion they had made the fish were now long gone,having swum down stream. Whatever, Askan didn't like fish anyway. He wanted to go home sooner rather than later, because honestly, he had to tell Reyes about this.
