>((S'aight. Please don't eat me if Tee reacts a little >too grouchily. :3)) > >The Kumayaki nods in response to Redan's suggestion, >the determined look in her eyes and the set to her jaw >affirming her agreement with his plan. She was quite >proud of this little group of renegades, each of them >showed great promise and had high levels of >intelligence and strength- with varying degrees of >temperament throwing some interest into the mix. To >put it shortly, Tee felt confident that even if they >could not retake her beloved Terole, they would take >great steps in annoying the ever living daylights out >of the Drakkan menace. She was satisfied and almost >comfortable in this little group of warriors, and had >Januya not snapped back to Redwood's grandson she >might have relaxed into the calm, collected mindset of >a focused warrior. A warrior content with her place in >a highly efficient team. But instead the tense >stiffness in her muscles remained. Not all was well in >paradise. She couldn't relax, not yet. > >The Tarok's remarks, the cocky arrogance that had >oozed from her every pore, coated every hair shaft, >worked too much havoc on the once-Guardian's frayed >nerves. Whence last she prowled beneath Terole's >butterscotch sky she might have kept her chocolate >muzzle shut. But perhaps it was the time that had >passed since, or perhaps it was the bleak outlook of >their mission. Maybe her slip of temper was brought on >by Januya's sarcasm and disrespect of Redwood's >grandson. The living meld of two Originals' >bloodlines, two Originals that she had had the >priveledge of hunting with. She was clearly defensive >of her great friend, but so it seemed she was >defensive of her line, as well. > >"You know not the future, Tarok, and if I did not know >you were such a beast as you are- a warrior and pilot >worthy of respect that you do not seem to show >yourself- I would say you do not know just how much a >difference a band of creatures defending their home >can make. An army of Drakka may look formidable, but >more formidable is the spirit that dwells deep inside >every Renegade's heart." She prowls a little closer to >the pilot, still giving Januya some space but coming >close enough to get her point across. The fur along >her spine stood up and a faint pink glow tinged the >edges of her eyes. "Do not underestimate our >potential. And <i>do not</i> spread lies. I don't >presume to be the leader here and I know you are as >mighty a warrior as any. I recognize that we're aware >of the facts, of the overwhelming task we have before >us. Being realistic is one thing. Pessimistic is >another." She pauses, glancing at Redan. The tip of >her tail danced in midair as she gazed slowly at each >of the creatures in the room. "Now is the time to come >together. If we're going to win this war we have to >work as a team. I realize that each of you have seen >your share of battles. And I hope... I <i>hope</i> >that we can give each other enough respect to convince >our respective home planets that we can do some good >here. If we can prove ourselves worthy to deserve our >planets sending a larger force, perhaps Terole's >outlook won't look so bleak." > >She ends her lengthy speech with a long look at Redan >before slowly walking a small distance away, still in >hearing distance but hopefully out of the center of >attention. She knew he was fully capable to stand up >to Januya's remarks. He could just as easily get in >her face as Tee could, and might have more business >doing so. But the Aya could not stand aside and let >division wreak havoc in their ranks. As an >afterthought she turned her head over her shoulder and >spoke again, her voice softer. "I knew Wureshi and >Seleth. Their prodigy would do much to aid our cause. >We can't let ourselves become discouraged and fall >apart. There may be strength in the Drakka's numbers, >but Terole's Renegades have strength of heart."
