My Frailty (Galaxia[Z])

[kaalo]

I remember your taste
You're the life I gave away
Failure wrapped around my neck
You're the ghost that held me back

The snow was pristine on the banks of the icey lake he called home. The moon was brighter than ever as it was waiting to turn the from wax to wain. Nights like these were silent in a way that chilled Kaalo to the bone. Heartbreak had overtaken Akeru and the proud Beta felt this as much as any other that called the lands their own. War was tearing through the days, and even in the night it was hard to keep from looking over his shoulder for demons hidden by darkness. But right now... the air was still and visibility clear...

Now I am letting go
Drowning myself in the frozen waters
I feel the words escaping
They break from my thoughts
and disappear from my mouth
They leave behind a taste

The taste of blood... Kaalo's heart was restless as ever, but he stayed still, scanning what he could see, every now and again, turning his head to the left or right. The song of the night was haunting... a march for war. A harbinger of worse to come. He howled out to the night, knowing that only one other in these lands would respond. He had mastered the tone long ago, low and longing. The call would attract no enemies...

The taste of failure
So familiar it reminds me of you
Don't say you'll save my life
I never asked you for anything
But you wanted more
Drowning in your frozen waters
I was sinking, you were my frailty
Drowning in your frozen waters
Don't you say that you'll save my life

So many enemies... Kaalo had found a place to call home a few seasons ago and yet he had only created enemies. Aside from the alphas and his playful love, Zoicite, he had encountered more than his share of unfriendly faces. He knew there was danger in every land, it was the way things worked, but the kinds of trouble he had stumbled into was beyond even this crazy hellish war with Giaku they had just encountered. How long could one handle such rage and panic...

I'm vanishing
I'm giving up on myself
Closing my eyes forever
Throw my body into the spinning and twisting
I bend into something else
A catastrophe
A murderer of my hopes and dreams

He suddenly felt a presence nearing him and he spun on impulse assuming an agressive stance. This was no time for trust. Was this really his old friend approaching or another dog of war come to assassinate the beta male in the middle of the night. It was because of this that he yet again could not sleep... Always on guard, never resting...

This is not my life
When winter ends
my new life begins
Bend and break
In pieces I was for you
You were my frailty
Don't say you'll save my [grrr]ing life

I'll have full intent to save it on my own...

Times were hard and difficult. Many wolves were weary, many unable to get past the things that plagued their mind. The end was drawing nearer, now it was just a matter of who was going to come out more victorious. But as it stood, even the world would see no victor. The packs would go right back out to hating each other. Because of the bloodshed, only more violence and hatred would flow.

One call stood out above everything else and she had to frown. It was a call she hadn't been expecting, or had heard in so long. Gingerly the wolfess got up from the dens she was helping to protect and headed toward the sound. Galaxia frowned as Kaalo suddenly spun on her, obn edge from sneak attacks. She tilted her head, 'Called you had?' She asked, her voice low and patient.

"My apologies Lady," Kaalo relaxed to a hunched sit facing her... "You and I both know this is no time to make assumptions, especially given the nature of our pasts. Alas, all I can smell is the stench of blood and death..."
