 Elder Quad
Dumbfounded as he was, Axel couldn't help but feel...well, he wasn't exactly sure what he was feeling. Emmy had deliberately withheld information from him about a serious matter. it had gone way too far. But she probably did that only to keep him from worrying, which is exactly what he would have done. Perhaps this was a good thing? How could this be a good thing though? They were probably about to be attacked by the one person who had made all of his childhood miserable, for the most part anyway. If it hadn't of been for his friends he probably would have done something drastic that he would have regretted.
Merlin's beard. Blair? Chloe couldn't believe her eyes as she focused in on the figure at the door. Immediately her anger level rose once again. But wait, this was different. She hadn't spoken to her in years. Perhaps she changed? Wha' are ya thinkin'? Of course she didn't change! Her brotha' is out to kill us righ' now! She looked from Axel to Ben then to Emmy, but not at Finn. He was probably staring a hole right through her.
On seeing his sister tense up, Finnegan placed a hand on her shoulder and spoke out of the corner of his mouth in Gaelic. "Easy." Who knows what she would have done to Blair. Back to the task at hand: Blair. What the bloody hell was she doing here? Wait, her brother was around right? He was sure he caught the tail end of that conversation. That must be why she was here. Oh lord. This was going to be interesting.
Axel almost had the same reaction to Blair as Chloe had, but since his mind was a bit out there today, he merely stared at her. "And what, pray tell, are you doing at my house?" he asked, sounding a bit too rude. He would have apologized, but shouldn't someone be apologizing to him today? It's not like he asked for all of this to be dropped on his lap like it was. Some sort of an apology would have been nice. But no. He'd have to deal with something else, again. His life was a never ending pit of dread, apparently. |
