“A
what? A Mack truck?”
The
face only God could love scrunched into an awesome scowl.
Bright
with laughter, three pair of golden eyes squinted, and God tried Their
collective best not break into uncontrollable hysterics.
Wolf
rose from his place at the right side of Sun Father to slap the aka:ki on the shoulder.
“Come
on, Two Swords. All is cool. I’m sure the little dude didn’t mean it.”
The
Guardian snorted. He squinted at the Wolf. “I thought God wasn’t able to
lie.” He rumbled a snort of laughter. “The little creep did mean it, and
it ain’t no surprise, Dio’:Dude.”
The
Eagle:Woman chuckled, a rich, throaty sound. She hugged Two Swords. Gathering
her eagle feather cape around her, she slipped through the clear floor. A
whoop of laughter rose back.
The
sword in the harness on Two Swords’ back giggled.
The
Guardian snarled, “Shut it, Heart’.”
DI:DAN:WA
TWO SWORDS. PEACE.
The
Guardian sighed. He nodded and booted away a demonic being that had dared to
invade the presence on the Dalonega
throne. More from the love and compassion directed at it from the throne than
from Two Swords’ hoof-sized foot, the very minor imp shrieked and fled.
GO,
LITTLE ONE
The
Sun Wolf grinned. Only Dad would dare call Two Swords-the-Moose ‘little’
and have the Guardian feel it a love-name. Ol’ aka:ki
Two Swords in a rage made the earth shake. Literally.
YOUR
YOUNG CHARGE IS UP TO MORE MISCHIEF.
Slapping
a hand to his forehead, Two Swords groaned.
“What
else is new?”
He
roared away in an explosion of light and concern. A man slipped up to the
dais. The Sun Wolf smiled a greeting.
Making
the hand sign for love to the Sun Father, the man gave a worried frown at Two
Swords’ retreating backlash of blue flames.
“Two
Swords is one of our best operatives in the field,” the Sun Wolf told Ben
Grey. With a quiet, smiling assurance, he added, “If anybody can get your
kid safe and keep him that way, Two Swords can.”
A
wistful smile on his face, Ben Grey watched the Solar:6 portal flare in the
depths of the Forest.
“Man,
but I wish I could see him again. You know, face to face, like the first time,
nine years ago. Not just be keeping an eye on my hellion.” He grimaced. Ben
shook his head. “I want to be there for him. With him, Bro, in the worse
way.”
He
glanced at the throne. “The Mohawk:Buu
still wants him.”
“Owl-dude
wants a lot of things. Benny is mine.” The Sun Wolf bared his teeth in a
harsh grin. “What is mine, is mine forever.”
