Take didn’t spare Aella a glance as frowned down at the uneven rock below his feet. His arms crossed against his chest, “We gotta do something with the kids first so they’re not in the way, then we go and find this dude..”
But where did Olim even reside? In the Dakrium? Normally in cartoons the villain lived in some obviously large hideout that really wasn’t well hidden. Like in Phineas and Ferb. Unfortunately they weren’t in a cartoon— but how cool that would be.
Take blinks, hard.
The memories of his ‘torture’ come flowing back like a tidal wave, the painful electric-like sensation reignites in his hands and they flex slightly. He grips his arms tighter as a result. To be in a constant state of excruciating pain was something he wanted to forget, and knowing that the kids who were transformed into we-sa’s had to experience that... made him sick. He gritted his teeth, fueled with even more anger to bring down Olim, to slug him right in the face and break every bone he could.
“That we will have to decide in the morning, I’m afraid,” Kyle said. “Many have already fallen asleep, and need their rest. It’s probably not best to discuss these things at night,” he added, peering at the entrance. While he was speaking with the Borealan, Selena, via Korim, darkness had fallen in the cave. He could only see the eyes of some of his peers, save the blazing woman, and the light of the sunset barely touching the sky on the right of the entrance. Rylie woke up only to yawn to prove Kyle’s point."The we-sa are children?!" The flames on Aella's hands and arms flared up at the sharp tone of her voice, and she backed up as to not burn anyone. Horror stuck her straight on that thought. Kids. Defenseless, helpless children turned into killer, yellow eyed beings. Something hadn't been right about the dead we-sa she had seen and that was it. It wasn't a beast, it was a child.
And that made her sick.
She would burn whoever had been a part of it to the ground. She held no mercy for those who intentionally harmed others, especially children. She knew what it was like to be hurt by adults as a child and not understand why, and she couldn't even understand half of what those kids.
The energy in the cave shifted instantly. She saw Eve look up, blatantly startled and horrified, and when her gaze drifted to the wolf girl, she saw the distant gaze in the pink haired man's face, his body tensed. The wolf girl had barely changed, except for the dark yellow glow in her gaze that, not that she would admit it, slightly scared her.
But one question was nagging at her. "But how do we get to Olim?"
“And I don’t feel like explaining everything more than once.”
Korim shrugged, an action that could not be seen in the shadowy corner where he sat. He would be perfectly happy to explain things more than once. But it was kind of spooky in there. And not everyone had his bravery or Timit’s reassuring presence. (Timit, by the way was snoring out rings of smoke on his lap. Flying all day was exhausting work.)
