i was born, on the highway, in a train wreck
with a heart, that was beating, out of my chest
"Kydobi." Aurum's voice split through the air coldly, not sounding very much like his usual kind and warm self, but instead vicious, and angry. He knew full well why Kydobi was here, hell, he had been there were Indie had told them all where her kids were coming from, but that didn't mean that he needed to be fucking happy to see the other. Hell, Aurum had truly been hoping that the other would just stay dead, even if himself and Leroy didn't really know how to. The proxy found himself padding up beside Snarl, his entire body tense and his wings pulled down tightly against his spine, the angel resisting the urge to launch himself forward and end the other male's life again. Aurum was not often a cruel man, but he saw no reason not to be cruel when it came to Kydobi. Kydobi was a Pittian through and through, and had nearly spent up to his very last moments defending Jervis and the Pitt's horrendous practices. Hell, he had defended a bastard who had lead to his own demise, and yet here he was, thinking that he could just stroll onto Tanglewood territory and demand to see Piers? It was ridiculous, and Aurum wanted to rip his throat out for it. Settling beside Snarl, the lion let his lips peel back, revealing a razor sharp set of snarling teeth as he growled, his tail lashing from side to side behind him as he spoke, faint heat radiating from him, as if he yearned to burst into flames, "In case you have forgotten, The Pitt is an enemy of Tanglewood. Blood does not change that fact, even if you would like to believe it does. Especially when you come strolling onto our territory and insult us, while looking straight into the eyes of those who have been hurt by your group's heinous actions." His eyes darted over towards Kiira for a moment, before they returned to Kydobi, his claws sinking down into the earth beneath him. He would let Leroy make the final decision on what to do if the canine showed up, since the general's word was final, but if Kydobi made one wrong move, Aurum wouldn't hesitate to deal with him, and he wanted to make that clear, "If you wanted to see your children, perhaps you should've spoken to Indie before this, and gotten things sorted out on neutral land, instead of trespassing on Tanglewood territory... I will allow you to answer Piers's question, but after that I want you to leave. Immediately. If you don't, then I will not hesitate to have you attacked on sight. Hell, I'm giving you more mercy than Leroy probably would." The second in command was frankly becoming quite tired of the whole discussion of whether or not the Pitt were really that bad, and he didn't even really want Kydobi talking to Piers, manipulating him. Still, Piers was a tangler, and Piers had a right to at least know what the hell Kydobi was here for, so the lion didn't give in to his instincts to crush Kydobi beneath his claws again.
