It seemed they could sense how uneasy he was about this. Shadow's words forced Hadley to straighten up, wanting to seem as confident as the wolf thought he could be. Pushing Amy out of his mind would be very difficult. She dictated his life, even without being there. To remove such a big part of himself would be difficult. Told to think about those he wanted to protect, the first one that clicked into his mind was Selene. He had failed with her though, and actually stole his confidence instead of boosting it. Instead he thought about Isa, standing before the dark ghost that had appeared, trying to send it away.
She had been so strong, yet so broken. Terrified, but still standing up. He wished that she didn't have to bear that by herself. He wished to be her strength. With that thought in mind the last of his fear faded, leaving him standing the way that he was meant to, powerful and strong against the onslaught. Daggers flashed towards him, and Hadley felt death approach, the darkness tunneling towards him. He wanted to run, to do something to escape, his mind threatening retreat. He couldn't though, not if he wanted to be able to help others. Instead he lifted his arms to move, to take the strike instead of the part that would kill him, ready to push her back.
