Description
My plans were set, and I was ready to go. Only one thing was left to do and that was to tell my brother about what I was planning....He didn't take it well.
"Seika, are you crazy!? This could be a suicide mission!"
"Doesn't matter, I'm still going."
"Why?! No one's making you! You don't have to do this. What if they find out who you really are and why you're there? They'll kill you!"
"That's a risk I'm willing to take.."
"Then you're an idiot! And what about your friends? Do they know about what you're doing?"
"....Not sure...Ghebaas knows, or at least suspects what I'm doing...He's going to try to keep my absence from being noticed as long as he can."
"He's actually helping you do this!?"
"Yes."
"You can't beat an army on your own! You're risking death just because your stupid pride has been hurt!"
I whirled around and grabbed the front of his shirt, yanking him down to eye level. I stared at my brother with hard, angry eyes and said angrily.
"Yes! I'm doing this for my pride! I've spent my whole life trying to convince my people I'm just as good as they are! And just when I thought I'd done that, it was all taken away from me be a band of half-witted renegades! I'm not going to sit back and do nothing! Can you honestly say that your people haven't been treating you differently since the Nameless started this war?"
He looked off to one side, avoiding looking into my eyes.
"I-It hasn't been that bad....Sure a few people have said things, or given me dirty looks. But most people don't seem to care...It isn't a big deal..."
"Maybe not to you, but it is to me. You're a pacifist, I'm not. You've been trained to heal, I've been trained to fight. We may be twins, but we are not the same. You follow your path, brother....And I'll follow mine...."
I let go of him and starting walking off. I'd said what I came to say, and I saw no point in hanging around. I had been walking for a while when I heard him calling after me.
"Wait! Seika, wait!"
I stopped and turned to see him running toward me.
"What is it?"
"If you are going, then I am too!"
"Why? You said this could be a suicide mission."
"I did, but even if it is a suicide mission....You're still my sister....And I won't let you go alone."
My eyes softened slightly.
"Let's go then."
_______________________________________________________________________
Yay for really short stories!!
As for what mission Seika and Zephyr are undertaking....That is a secret. ;3
I won't say much more, except that they left without their leaders' permission, and without really telling anyone where they going or what they are planning. So...they will probably be in trouble whenever people start noticing they are gone. X3
What happens next? Well....you'll just have to wait and see.
And I'd like Zephyr to have the points from this, pwease. :3
Characters in this are both mine. Here are their apps:

Zephyr:

Seika: *is obviously not happy at the thought* ....Yeah, I could just jump for joy....

Seika: *just ignores the two of them now*
Zephyr: Interesting? *he looked at Seika* Perhaps it will be, but I doubt it will be very pleasant. Seika is always in a bad mood, even on her good days. Which are few and far between here of late. I thought this change might help her attitude, but... *he shrugged slightly* I guess some things just can't be altered.

Zephyr: *He whispered to Eamin in a joking voice* You're lucky. Normally she just punches people without giving them a warning first.
