Moonspear What Have I Done?

Judas saw some birds fly overhead, beneath the puffy clouds and the morning sky. The wind blowing against his fur. He felt calm, despite what he was about to do, what he was about to say. So calm, he never even realised Pyx was beside him until she spoke. He almost jumped and looked at his side to find her looking up as well. And said nothing.

Words were caught in his throat. Compared to himself, she seemed so innocent. How could he admit to her what he'd done? Sure, he told her his story. But she believed that Judas to be gone. In truth, it remained there, dormant for now. His lower jaw trembled, and a familiar wetness welled up in his eyes. He had no idea when it happened, but one moment he looked at her, the next he went crying into her shoulder.
