[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/seijatabelbg.png] Seija found herself pacing the length of the docks quite often as of late, her mind a flurry of thoughts as she both wondered of the Carnas current standing with the other Rings, as well as the whereabouts and well being of Kincaid. She frowned then, her brows knitting together under the locks of hair as she folded her arms behind her back as she walked along. Worn boots that were duct taped together around the front too many times to count barely made a sound on the docks, though the creaking of the boards gave her away more likely than not as she headed down into the haven known as sewertown. The Fulsi raid had left her restless about what to do .. and as she ducked around a few of her hunters relaxing on a crate she made a mental note to meet up with Addison if possible. The scouts, as much of hunters some of them also were, her extra hunters would be good to be paired up with some. ooc; short but yeah. xD;; lets get this party started! :3

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/fentablebg.png] Fen had just returned from another one of Adison's extremely long, tiring patrols - the ones, she discovered, that he designed especially for her. It was a grueling task that he set for her, to go on at least two patrols a day. One in the very early morning, Pre-dawn Patrol as Adison called it, and they were often the only two on patrol and he seemed to enjoy pushing her buttons and mocking her weaknesses. Which compared to him, were so damn many. Sighing, Fen dragged herself back to the docks, her feet and limbs aching from the hike along the Fulsi border, her head still reeling from the stench of the unlucky trespassing Fulsi who'd been strung up. God, she hated the Carna, with almost every fiber of her being. The only two in the whole damn Ring she liked was Crash - and of course her sister Seija. The whole reason she was in the Carna in the first place was her twin, and she wouldn't leave without her. But Seija had been so distant - since Fen had arrived in the Carna, Seija had barely even said two words to her except when they'd first met. Seija had been Lead Hunter for some time, and Fen had been shocked at the way her sister had changed. She'd become so distant. A being changed into some dreadful darkness that in some small way terrified Fen. She had to stop to lean against a warehouse as dizziness washed over her; this had to stop. She was worrying herself sick over Seija. And now these rumors - damned things! All sorts of weird news was flitting about the Ring about Seija. That she was involved with a Virus - a Virus! Shaking her head, Fen pulled herself upright and continued toward Sewertown. She stopped short and saw Seija amongst her hunters, and drawing in a deep breath she headed over there. She wove through the hunters who snickered about something she couldn't hear. Ducking her head she walked to Seija and gently touched her shoulder. "Seija," She said, gently leading her sister towards Sewertown, more out of habit than anything. "Seij, we need to talk. I felt like I haven't spoken to you in such a long time..." ooc; FINALLY! XDD

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/seijatabelbg.png] As she walked in the direction she knew was towards 'home' and her ears perked at the whisperings of her Hunters, her gait pausing as she was about to turn to ask them what was so funny - in her condescending-tone-of-evil-bitchy-ness of course - before she felt the light touch on her shoulder. Immediately her body froze ... her muscles tensing before she heard the familiar voice of her sister and her shoulders that had hunched upwards fell. She turned slightly as her 'older' sister spoke to her lowly and she grit her teeth lightly, trying to decide weather or not she was agitated by her hunters giggling like idiots or the fact that the one person she didn't really want to see right now was right in front of her. "It has been a long time dear Fen ... and it is because I am busy most of the time. The fact that the Fulsi raid recently has set people on edge has not helped any either," she said as she let her sister guide her towards the place she was already headed. She felt an inner turmoil inside her ribcage as she walked with her sister, the sister she once depended on before the Keepers gave her these abilities; and now she had a sense of freedom she had before when she thought she was only human. She let herself relax again, her jaw hurting from clenching the teeth tight as she sighed lightly. She had always envied her sister, the one who was able to see, and even though Fen would describe everything as best as she could .. nothing could make up for the loss of vision. "Back from patrol..?" she questioned lightly, not really asking if the other was okay or in any way inquiring as to her well-being ... but in a round about way doing so; having heard the others slight shortness of breath and the way she dragged her feet somewhat. ooc; WHOOT WHOOT. Will there be a fight? Will there be sisterly love? WHOOOO KNOWWSS!. xD

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/fentablebg.png] Fen sighed softly, her frayed nerves nearly snapping with Seija's reply. Excuses, it seemed. Fen knew that Seija had been busy and it's why she hadn't bothered her - but still. They were flesh and blood family, something that had always taken precedence in Fen's mind over the troubles of others. But apparently Seija put the feelings of her godforsaken Carna before that of her own sister's. "I can see that - the raid was terrible, I know. But we're sisters, Seija. You didn't..." she sighed, clearing her throat as she looked away. "You didn't even come to make sure I was okay. And I tried to come see you but your idiot hunters wouldn't tell me where the hell you were." Grunting, Fen pulled open the plywood covering the new entrance to Sewertown after Manic had moved the location. That had taken toll on everyone, too, especially Fen - Adison had been on her case relentlessly, saying it was her utmost duty as an Omega to keep the home-front clean. She sighed and helped Seija down the ladder into the dark tunnel, letting her eyes adjust. Back from patrol..? "Yeah. Adison seems to find the pleasure in making me walk the Fulsi border twice a day." Fen grunted and shuffled through the traffic of the new tunnel, still trying to adjust to the change. "Freakin' Fulsi." Fen sighed, and it was truthful - why hadn't the Fulsi told her of this Raid? She supposed that they didn't trust her enough for that, but the least they could've done was warn their spy so she didn't get slaughtered. She'd almost gone blown up, escaping only with a few minor cuts because she'd gone invisible and fled. Sighing for what seemed the hundreth time, Fen turned to face Seija and drew her into a tight hug. "Seija, I've missed you so much," she breathed out, tears pricking at her eyes. It was true - she felt like she hadn't seen her sister in forever. And the woman standing before her didn't even seem like her sister. "And I love you - you know I do. It's just...this place..." she pulled away and held Seija's face in her own like she always used to do when she told her stories or comforted her blind twin. "...this place has changed you, sister." ooc; ~

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/seijatabelbg.png] "You didn't..." "Don't cry..," she said swiftly as she frowned as the other cleared her throat, Fen always seemed to get so emotional over things, well at least the other was more open to show her emotions than she was .. it was so ... weak. She sighed agitatedly as she moved through the entrance and turned her head as if to glance back to her sister, obviously not needing to adjust to darkness when it is what she was used to. "I am sorry I did not come to find you myself but I sent out a few of my own to find out the casualties, your name didn't show up as dead so I was not so worried. Even when I happened to see you pass by that same day at night," she said as she accepted the help silently, not minding even though it was more for her sisters benefit than her own. "Twice .. ? Do all Scouts have to do this .. ?" There was an edge to her tone, as if she didn't approve of the Head of Border Patrol bullying her sister around .. that was her job only. She inwardly shook the thought away as they made their way down the tunnel and into a larger main hall of sorts. She turned to Fen when she felt the other move, a brow quirking under her hair at the sigh before she stiffened a bit in surprise, not expecting the two arms around her as she bit her lip silently. She was silent as the other spoke, slowly moving to return the hug awkwardly before the other pulled away and cupped the sides of her face. If not for their blood bond one would think it a romantic act, although indeed it was a very intimate and caring act - one that brought back a flood of memories when she was weaker .. not able to do the things she was able to do now. She frowned as she moved her hands to each of her sisters and slowly pulled them down, though she did not let go of them, putting them together in front of her as she smiled lowly, a sideways smirk. "This place has only changed me in the ways I have been exposed to my full potential, Fenie. I am not dependent on memorizing the places around me now .. I have almost a vision with the vibrations around me, everything that moves gives me and idea of what I wouldn't have been able to see before I came here and the Keepers graced me with their gifts. Although, a gift of confinement might have been passed as not needed..," she said as she brought her sisters hands to her mouth and kissed them gently -- how they both would do for one another before she stepped forward and placed her right cheek against Fens, her right hand on the others left cheek as she used her thumb to wipe away the tear that threatened to fall. "I think this place has changed you as well .. only for the better .. only to make us stronger Fen," she said softly. ooc; booyah ♥

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/fentablebg.png] "Oh," Fen said with a sheepish grin. She supposed that was better than nothing - it seemed Seija really did care about her, on some level. "Not really, I don't think. That asshat just has it out for me," Fen grumbled. "Walk half the border at pre-dawn, then the other half on evening patrol. Apparently he wants to make me a 'better Carna' so the Fulsi don't tear me apart so easily." She shuddered at the thought - she wasn't so much worried about the Fulsi. She was more worried what would happen if she was found out; she'd heard what they did to traitors and spies. But for Seija, it was...it was worth it. The hug was so strange - so foreign. She didn't realize that it had been such a long time since she'd given someone a hug. And Yves hadn't really counted, although she wouldn't mind giving him a hug again. But with Seija, she had expected it to feel the way it used to, like she was back at home again playing in their childhood home with Mama and Papa and their little sister. She expected the hug to bring back a flood of warmth and sincerity, which it did - just less so than it had before. Seija's touch was as light as ever, so soft, so delicate as it always had been. But even as Seija held Fen's hands i n her own, Fen could feel that new strength. Fen eyes grazed over Seija's hands, shocked at the new scars she saw there - they'd never been there before. It left her choked up, thinking that she should've been there to get Seija out of trouble. She shouldn't be put in danger like that, even if she could handle it. As Fen listened, she couldn't help but nod along. Hearing these things was nothing new to her. She alone had more mutations than the majority of the Carna; it wasn't like being turned into an anthro hadn't left her without capabilities. Seija was right, it had made her stronger. "That's...that's amazing. I'm so happy for you, Seija. But..." Fen said, and she was truly happy that her sister could finally see the world, at least in some small way. It had always pained Fen that Seija couldn't see the beauty of the world. But at least she couldn't see the horrors of it. Her thoughts drifted over the past, flinching as she came across that one night, so long ago, that had changed everything. Fen couldn't place why, she couldn't remember what had happened. But it was there, a nagging nightmare at the back of her mind. At Seija's gentle kiss, Fen eyes flickered back to Seija's covered ones. She hadn't realized that there had been tears in her eyes as Seija wiped at one that had escaped. Fen tried to hide it the best she could. "...but that's not what I meant." She continued at long last, pulling away from Seija's touch. "You're different now. Not just because of what the Keepers gave you. It's like...it's like I hardly know you anymore." Her eyes clouded and Fen pulled away again, though she kept Seija's hands in her own. "You're distant. And dark, and I see you on patrols - I've seen you fight!" Fen's voice shook as she thought on a border skirmish she'd witnessed, seeing Seija spin her blade deftly before driving it straight into the chest of a Fulsi man. "It's like you enjoy...like you enjoy killing." Another tear rolled down her cheek, trying to hold back a sob at the truth she didn't want to admit. "You've become one of them, Seija. Just another murdering Carna." ooc; o:

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/seijatabelbg.png] She shook her head at the thought of the one known as Addison .. she would have a word with him next time they saw each other. For this reason as well as a few other less personal things that needed attention as soon as possible. She often wondered about how many people she had yet to really meet in her own ring, since now that she thought about it, she had only but a passing glance to the other Head. "...but that's not what I meant." As her mirrored self pulled away her smile faded as she frowned thoughtfully, listening to Fen explain herself as she sighed lightly as she looked down to their hands that gripped one another. Each of them was the others life line .. their support in this world and that they had promised each other above everything else, above all odds they said they would never separate. "...like you /enjoy/ killing." As the other began to get choked up she pulled her hands out of the others grasp, her eyes narrowing into slits behind her curtain of hair that shrouded her face. "Them? ... Them? You make it sound like you are not one of us," she said as she raised her head, her tone darkening. "Do you not think the Fulsi incapable of killing? Do you not think ... that the Fulsi would take over our own home and kill us if we didn't turn our backs on our leader? "We are grouped because that's what people do, they fall under groups led my leaders to order their followers. It is human nature and it always has been. It isn't like it is out there, Glaci," she said pointing in some random direction, though obviously meaning outside of the Menagerie. "It is truly survival of the fittest, and the the strongest one .. in both mind and body ... wins." ooc; ... ^__^

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/fentablebg.png] Fen stared back at Seija, unsure. In a way she knew Seija was right - of course the Fulsi would leap at an opportunity to kill any one of them. They'd proved that. "Who mentioned the Fulsi? But they're no better than the Carna. I don't trust either further than I can throw them." Fen mused for a moment, crossing her arms over her chest. "That's what people do? Follow like mindless sheep? Jump because your master says jump? Kill because your master says kill? That is all Manic does, you know - control the lot of you. He's got a leash on the beasts. And that's exactly how the Keepers want it." She shook her head, trying to contain the venom in her words. "You don't realize it, or maybe you do and just don't care. But the Carna and the Fulsi aren't...aren't natural. I'd rather live with the Fallen, who realize that you don't need to slit throats to survive!" Fen glared at Seija, knowing she wouldn't see the intensity in her gaze. "We are creations of the Keepers, just their playthings going about in an imaginary world. Survival of the fittest? The strongest survive? We're nothing but puppets, led to believe that! And you're playing right into it, don't you see?" Fen put a hand over her mouth, realizing that she was doing nothing but criticizing her sister. It had never been the right way to get through to her, but Fen had always needed to be so gentle with her - and now it seemed that that wasn't working. Fen kept her tone level as she continued. "How can you agree with the path the Carna lead? The Fulsi are gluttonous fools. The Carna are violent barbarians - and from the humans view a step below animals themselves. I know not everyone here is like that - you're not. I know you're not. Yet you do not deny me when I say you enjoy killing. How can this be? My dear sister..." Fen shook her head and took Seija's hand again, placing a kiss in return on the top of it. "For you, I will call myself a Carna. For you, I will do anything. I just cannot bear to see what you seem to have become. But just tell me you aren't. One word from you would silence me. Please, Seija, tell me you aren't..." A murderer. She couldn't say it, not to Seija. And so she looked away and cleared her throat. "Would there be a chance of happiness for you if we were to leave this place?" ooc; RAMBLE ON MY WAYWARD FEN~!

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/seijatabelbg.png] "The Fulsi are our only concern, the Fallen are harmless beings that need more protection than they do support in fighting." She felt the back of her neck grow hot and her chest tighten as the venom seeped into her sisters words, a sadistic little smirk beginning to form on Seijas lips as she shook her head. "Do you think we follow lightly? There is a respect I have for Manic that runs deep, he runs a formidable ring and I am proud to call myself Carna. And though I consider myself one of a group, I have never forgotten myself, and have never killed without proper .. cause," she said lightly. "Leave here ... ? Leave and be outcasts in a world full of normal people, Fen?" The word 'normal' seeping off her tongue like a disease that couldn't wait to be disposed of. "We are surrounded by our brothers and sisters, surrounded by people that we can call family. The same genes run in all of our blood and make us who we are; alike in a way .. and different in others." She bowed her head as if looking to their hands before raising her head once more, "Fen, we belong here amongst others like ourselves ... and maybe ... maybe one day we might live in peace. But until then ... until our leaders somehow come to a pact to maybe one day turn all of our efforts on our creators ...Until then we can only band together with others and fight behind a leader we can believe in." ooc; >3

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/fentablebg.png] She should've expected it. And in a way, she had. Fen knew that Seija had change so much - whether she had grown or degenerated morally wasn't up to Fen to decide. She would support her sister no matter what. She always had. But Seija's response still got to her. The fact that Seija seemed to love and respect her Ring so much more than her own sister...the fact that all the years Fen had devoted to taking care of Seija, drying her tears and pushing down the bullies that would make fun of her or the people who would try to take advantage of her. Without Seija to protect and to care for, Fen felt like she was nothing. Like she as adrift at sea, pushed about by the waves and heading in no general direction. It was like she had no control over which way her life went anymore. "...I have never forgotten myself, and have never killed without proper .. cause..." "I'm...sorry. I shouldn't have said that. I just get so worried about you when I see you fight." she paused and waited for Seija to continue. "We could go to the Fallen. It's safer there," Fen said weakly, but she had already given up hope. Seija would never leave the Carna willingly. Fen had known it all along, but there had still been some chance of hope. But no longer. Fen knew for certain that if she was to get Seija away from the Carna that the Carna would have to fall apart. And the only way Fen knew to do that was to take out it's foundations. Manic and Crash. Dmitri was a weak leader - Fen had been watching him. He was too unpredictable in his actions, and Fen had snuck into the meetings that Manic held with Crash (camouflaged and well hidden in the shadows, of course) and heard Manic talking about the blond haired Delta. Fen knew that people wouldn't follow him instinctively as they did Manic and Crash. But...perhaps she would discuss the matter with Adam and see if he could arrange something to have him eliminated as well. Or captured. But with a startling sense of clarity, Fen realized that in order to save her sister from the darkness that embraced her, the Alpha would have to die. "But...you're right. You do belong here. They respect you, and you deserve what you've gotten in this Ring." Fen tried a smile. "And if you want to stay, then I'll stay. I know you don't need me to take care of you, Seij. But you know I can't help it. Mom and Da left it to me to keep you safe." Fen swept Seija's thick bangs from her face so that her eyes were visible. Fen stared into their unseeing depths, and pulled Seija forward to kiss her forehead. "I'm your big sister, you know. You may be lead hunter, but I've still got seniority. A whole minute and a half older! Hah!" ooc; the wait D:! I am sorry for it.

[atrb=background,http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i319/sketchedesigns/seijatabelbg.png] " .. to the Fallen. It's safer there .. " "The Fallen .. ?" she asked the question to her sister as if she were crazy, her mouth contorting to the side in a grimace as she paused, waiting for a 'just kidding' comment from her sister even though in the back of her mind she knew it wasn't the case. Not the fact that she thought her sister was a pure Fallen at heart, cause she knew otherwise. She could recall a few times her sister almost seemed to switch personalities and beat the crap out of people that were teasing her and then scaring them off; to then turn to her and gingerly ask if she was alright. They were more alike sometimes than one would think. There was an awkward pause as she waited and her sister most likely was looking for some form of flicker in Seija's face that told her she might consider it. But who would think that the next words her sister spoke gave in and actually complimented her for her rank? She smiled as she wrapped an arm around her sisters shoulders while they walked forward then, moving as if to look at her as they paused in their walk. She knew what Fen was doing before the other even touched her, her sisters fingertips brushing her bangs out of her face before she was pulled forward to receive a kiss on her brow. As Fen let out the small retort she could only laugh in amusement at the other, her arm still slung around her sisters shoulders she tightened her hold and lifted up her other hand to give her a half-effort noogie. "You may be my big sister but I've gotten stronger!" she retorted as she laughed again before letting her go, her laugh a tough more natural than usual; a little more old school Seija than her new tough side. She let her sister go quickly and jumped back, giggling as she held her sides and looked to her. "I love you Fenny ... always and forever .. I promised, remember?" she said as she calmed her laughs into a light tone as she tilted her head to the side with the light question. "I may act like a bitch, but really it's just my outer shell I've made for me," she said truthfully, "but in a way I embrace it .. it made me stronger so others didn't get at me .. and I suppose there's nothing wrong with a little revenge every once in awhile," she said grinning from ear to ear, her strange lilt coming back as she hummed delightedly. ooc; wheee, finally I post. chugga chugga .. chooo CHOOO!
