Jefferson was never frightening on purpose, at least not anymore, but many things about him had changed. The fury within his chest had not; that temper of his had always been there, and he had a feeling it had been even when he was known as Maluki, many moons before. He was Jefferson now, had been for a long time, and he knew he was different than Maluki either way. That creature wasn't the scarred miscreant he'd become then, he had been a good kid--or so Iskata and Laruku had implied, anyway. Jefferson had never been "good". He'd never been a leader, at least until he'd been thrown into the position. He'd lost any choice. Phoenix Valley was his... whether or not he wanted it was another story.
