    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura

    Ruan emerged so quickly! So suddenly. He flew from Mom's fancy blue boulder straight at the new man, and the boy with purple spots tucked in closer to Bright in instinct, his brown eyes wide as he watched them.

    There was ice frozen solid around the new man's legs, and then it wasn't there anymore. Shattered and he turned into a wolf just like Mom had been, just like Ruan had been. But his own color, of course. And sure enough, Ruan became wolf again, the very same that Soldat had first seen of him, when he'd first learned to grin at that sober face and win a secret smile from icy blue eyes.

    Mother fell, though, and Soldat scrambled out of the way only to dive back into her side with a soft wail of concern. His little inky-black nose nudged all over her shoulder, the soft of her belly. Still, she wouldn't budge. He wiggled closer, poking around at her purple cheek, grunting and baby-talking soft nonsense at her to encourage her to listen and maybe turn one of those soft smiles at him. She didn't move.

    There were instant tears welling up in his eyes and he looked over at the other two adults for help, squawking with anxiety to call for their attention. Then he tried again on his own, scooted up nearer her nose to see if she'd blow on his face. And she did! Sort of. Because she was breathing. So maybe Mom just needed a nap. He scrubbed a tear from his eye and grinned sheepishly at them in case they looked. It's fine. Mom's just napping. They like naps.
