ooc;; -cries- awwwh i dont know if i can do this anymore! the poor little guy -snuggles izaak- Though almost all of Teddy's childhood had been spent in the training rink, Charles Stone had sat down with his children on more than one occasion to explain the rules of the game to his boys. This game was the Warrior's Code and after their first lesson on the subject the old warrior had quizzed his sons constantly on the Code until they could recite it in their sleep. It spoke of honor and justice and the need to remain objective in their fighting. They were not to run around attacking everyone because they had the skills to do it. And they most certainly should not harm a creature that was weaponless. This pitiful creature was most certainly weaponless and pathetic. Blue eyes flashed as the coyote lay on the floor, unwilling to touch his torn ear but trying to protect it anyway. The coyote whimpered and whined, Teddy could hear the word 'ow' alot from the boys lips. However the young warrior was taken aback when the coyote began to cry. Big clear tears ran down his muzzle and into the snow. Pity and disgust rose in him simultaneously- Teddy was told never to cry. And he had stuck by this, for the young warrior had never cried since he was old enough to know about consequences. However, the Code rose up before him and he almost winced against his fathers coming blow. It took him a moment to realise that his father was not there. However, the coyote was defenseless and weak and unarmed. He should not be attacking him. On the other hand, the coyote had intruded on Anathema land, and when asked to leave he had stared at Teddy like he had no idea what he was saying. However, the next two words resolved Teddy's conflicted mind. Although he was often described, by himself, as a cold blooded killer, there was certainly a difference between this and a warrior. Teddy had been raised to be a warrior and not a killer. It was the warrior side to him that had seriously considered dragging the coyote over Anathema's borders and simply leaving him there, no more harmed than he was now. However, the word 'Inferni' brough forth the mental and physical snarls and Teddy was once again in the coyote's face. He reached forward and tugged at the coyote's ripped ear, hearing it tear once more. ”So Inferni sent you to spy on us did they? What a nice little welcome...” Teddy snarled before gripping the coyote's arm and allowing his claws to sink into the matted fur and skin. If he had felt pity for the coyote before he felt only fury now. Crouching down in front of the intruder Teddy allowed his teeth to slowly come forward and close over the muzzle of the coyote. He sunk his teeth into the boys nose, closing his powerful jaws till Teddy could feel the coyote's small teeth against his own. Tugging once with his mouth, blue eyes remained cast away from the boys. word count;; 302 ”speech”
