sure, that's also fine with me :)

Laurel knew that she had to be strong, now. But then again, dearest, you've never been known to be strong, have you? the venomous voice inside her head called. She'd pulled away Indra from Merrick to search for her own children, and now she was pushing away her own child because she thought it was the right thing to do. And look how he turned out. A monster. A maniacal monster.

It was hard to be strong when Indra pleaded with her, saying that she wanted to stay with. I know sweetie, but it's safer if you don't, Laurel said with a shaky voice during their hug together, trying to argue logic against Indra's heart-wrenching words.

Do you think she'll ever forgive you?

The words hissed in her head as Indra's heart-rending shouts for her mother tore open the forest. Laurel had already begun her dash but —

But you've never been known to be strong —

She just couldn't —

Couldn't do that to Indra, even though she knew in her head that she was doing it for her daughter. That it was right. That it was the most selfless thing she'd ever done.

But you've never been known to be particularly selfless, have you?

Laurel turned back towards Mahler and Indra and ran to catch up with them. She knew it was the wrong thing to do, but she couldn't leave her poor child — her poor baby — alone. She'd rather die in her daughter's arms than lose her in the rubble of this fight. She didn't even notice the wolves that were hot on her trail as she called out to Mahler and Indra to let them know she was coming: Indra! Mahler!
