Broken Boulder haven't seen you much of late

Sakina was not heartless. Although it did not show on his features, he was empathetic to blueeyes. He was wise beyond his years and he too knew the ache of losing a loved one. A lover, no. But a younger sister, innocent and pure. "Then you are a stronger man than me." His words were muted, a rare show of his emotions.

Fear threatened to overcome him as the red man began to circle, ears flat against his head and tail tucked. It took everything in him not to immediately submit, as he had been taught when faced with a fight. 

As Reyson came at him the fear was far too overwhelming for his little body to contain, and instead of doing as he was instructed he dropped to the floor in submission. A shrill, short scream left his lips, as if he were already expecting pain before it came. 

Once he realised the bigger canid hadn't taken him by the scruff and shook him, he sat up with an embarrassed flush to his cheeks, turning to lick his shoulder fur flat in an effort to soothe himself. "I will be better. Can we try again?"
