Chapter 42: Grudges

MIDNIGHT

    The lone wolf walked around the woods, bored, no-one to talk to. She sighed when she sat down. The guardians were busy guarding the woods, Blaze and Cullen must have been hiding, Sunrise is gone...
    "Hello," said a voice.
    Midnight turned her head, to face Pi, her light orange fur shimmering in the light. "Oh, Pi," said Midnight.
    "H-hello!" a soft voice squeaked. In surprise, Midnight saw the young kit, Sunrise.
    "S-Sunrise! S-she can speak wolf?" asked Midnight.
    Pi smiled. "I'm teaching her. Both fox and wolf. Majority of us uses wolf, because that's what we end up as if we lose our powers."
    "Have you been a wolf, Pi?" Midnight asked.
    Pi frowned, the sparkle in her eyes suddenly gone. "Yes," she growled. "Momentarily."
    Midnight wanted to ask, but the sudden change in the fox's tone had told her to avoid the subject. "So... how's Sunrise doing?"
    "Oh, not bad, she can converse pretty OK in fox and slightly less better in wolf, but, hey, that's alright!" Pi said, regaining her happy tone. "So, up to anything lately?"
    "No... except," Midnight said, and the deer she encountered flashed into her mind. "I met this doe... Brown coat and extremely jumpy."
    Pi shot up quickly, scaring Sunrise into hiding, before Midnight could continue describing the doe. "Iota!" she cried.
    "Excuse me?" Midnight asked.
    "T-that's Iota! She's been gone from her post for weeks! I should have known!" Pi cried.
    "W-what is it, Pi?" Midnight cried.
    Pi shook her head and kissed Sunrise, and, with a gentle push, allowed her to depart from sight. "See, Iota has always loved Epsilon from a long time ago, even after dragons has been banished."
    "Iota told us that their relationship was over, but then... why does she keep abandoning her post to see him then?" Pi mused.
    Midnight was silent.
    "To be honest, one of the more powerful ones now is Iota. She didn't "fall" into the regeneration of the wolves for more than a century, and, well, that's not really fair, is that?" pouted Pi. "I mean, she doesn't even have true powers! Ugh!"
    Midnight frowned. Aside from Omega and Epsilon it seems like there are two other individuals in an unknown war- Iota and Pi.
    "Hey, maybe she evaded it all," Midnight sad, trying to assure Pi.
    "Hah! Didn't even join in the war against Beta, that child!" Pi snorted.
    Just made things worse, grumbled Midnight.
    "Does Iota even realise Epsilon is no longer trying to be with her?" Pi ranted. "I mean-!"
    Pi sighed, enraged. "His memories has been altered, he doesn't know her as he used to!"
    Midnight then remembered a little about what Pi has told her. "Does it mean... that when you change forms, you might not have any memories of when you have as in another?"
    Pi seem to relax and nod. "Yes, Midnight, that is true," she responded. "Iota is chasing something she can't achieve. Forced into the deer shape of his, Epsilon can barely remember relationships of him and the rest, to avoid war between him and Omega."
    "Interesting," said Midnight. "Still, do you have any grudges against her that made you sound... bitter?"
    Pi laughed nervously. "Bitter was I?"
    Midnight did not reply but fixed a cold stare at Pi. The fox sighed. "Yes, for it was her who personally slain Agruare."
    Midnight remembered it too well.
    "...My lover."
