WC:: 877 - OOC Slight PP needed to get her off him (hehe, aggressive Kai returns). Points - 7

Malakai had taken the opportunity when he had gotten closer to the female to look over her face - he had seen a hundren scars taining her features before, and as she lay calmly in the stream, he saw the same things there now. It unnerved him but he felt her touch once more, felt her holding his hand once more and it calmed him again. His eyes closed again, shutting out the images he saw, that invaded his brain and tried to concentrate on his body as it lay upon the bank of the brook. He concentrated on his breaths, upon slowing them, upon the racing of his heart and of the tension in his muscles. At least it was normal for the physical weakness and unbalanced movements.

Just when Kai thought that he might be calming himself down, he heard the female scream and felt her hand pull from his once more. At first, his eyes squeezed tighter closed, trying to shut out the noise but he had to see what was happening, to make sure she was alright if nothing else. He saw the female lie back down into the water after she had tossed something away from her. What had she seen? He kept his eyes on her closely, following her as she pulled back once more and stood, though her ability to stand and balance seemed a lot better than his did. With a huff, Kai put all his focus into his arms and pushed himself up into a sitting position, but failed and so decided to stay put for now before lifting his head to see Axelle stomping on something. He couldn't make out what it was, but something else caught his eye, over in the water. Something floating there. A body. He knew who it was straight away from the golden fur despite the matted blood and water. His brother, the one he murdered.

He just stared at the lump in the water, fear running through his veins all of a sudden. However, just as he tried again to lift himself up, to get a closer lump at what he was sure was the body of his brother, the female had lowered herself upon him, straddling him somewhat. Managing to tear his gaze away from the brook, his eyes angled up towards the female, but she would be able to see the terror of the nightmare he was sure he was in the middle of. Her words took a long moment to sink in as his head turned back to the body in the water, and saw it twitching, just as it had done the night Kai had killed him. "...No... I see worse things than that..." He had to get closer, he had to see it's face, that lump in the water, and ignoring the sound of his own voice echoing through his head, Kai reached up to suddenly, and rather aggressively grip the female's hips with both hands. Now, his body seemed to respond exactly how he asked it too. A low snarl escaped from him, the sound deafening to him for a second or two, before he lifted the female up from him and tossed her to the side somewhat roughly. But it wasn't anger aimed at her, it was aimed at the vision he returned his gaze back to. It was part of an old fallen branch or tree trunk in the middle of the brook, but to his eyes, it was covered in golden fur, his dead brother's body just as Kai had left him that night.

With Axelle off him now, having rolled onto the grass after being removed from his form, he once more tried to stand and after a few more failed attempts, he managed to get himself half way there, on his knees, but it was goon enough and so started dragging himself into the water, ignoring the swirling sky and the throbbing colours that aimed to distract him. His gaze was firmly set upon the form in the water, and splashing wildly as he moved, he made his way over to it. Getting closer, Kai heard his own growls reverberate around the woods before grabbing the branch that he was so sure was his brother and tried to lift it, to turn it to see his face. But the wood was too slippy and didn't feel like fur beneath his grip, and in frustration at his muscles not being able to do such a simple task, Malakai let out a loud roar before smashing his fist down onto the wood. But instead of seeing broken bark and splinters in his flesh, digging through his fur, what he saw was crimson. He had put his fist right through his dead brother's skull, and from what he could see, parts of bone were stabbing into his hand.

Kai pulled back quickly, snorting and huffing as he examined his bloody hand, but it wasn't his blood, it was Rafaels. But of course, there was no blood. Kai stared at his hand for a long moment as he remained in the water, just wanting the visions to stop. "...His blood on my hands... Again!!" Kai was clearly agitated now, his heart starting to pound once more.
