Moonspear monday? no thanks.

Skipping Acrux & Alaric with permission.

Faced with the penetrating green of the mist pelted Maggak, Bronte took a single, careful step back. Yielding respectfully, but holding her gaze. Moonspear was not her turf. Acrux was not her brother. She was certain if the tables were turned, and were it Ponyboy that was injured, she would be feeling a little defensive, too.

She drew in a measured breath and let it out slowly. Keeping her calm. Treading lightly. "Because." Her eye shifted towards Acrux only for a second, then back to Maggak. "I feel like I should feel responsible. That...girl...she was sort of a friend. We are not related."  She added for clarity. Sharply she turned her head to look away momentarily. "If only I had been there, maybe I could have stopped this from happening."

Straightening, she looked back at Maggak again. "I wanted to make sure he will be alright. We met, briefly, not that long ago. I am here because I care. She is my pack mate. I will make sure she answers for what she did."
