MEDUSA, THE FIRESTARTER
She was silent as the lioness spoke, but anger surged in her eyes again, burning brighter than her patience. She bit her tongue again and drew blood, claws flexing in the ground. The fire on her back flared, but she stayed quiet as Els explained the situation to the new arrival. Then, she cut into the fray, words like diamond blades, tipped with a fire. "I plead with my own life, you absolute madwoman! I would give up everything to go back and change what happened, but I CAN'T DO THAT NOW!" She raised her voice and paced behind the border. "My name is Medusa. I was once a rat snake-cat hybrid. I challenged Stheno, a Cobra cat hybrid. My name is Medusa, and I am sorry for all the hurt we have caused but if i could change it, swap Salvia's life for my own, his head in Quasar's jaws for mine, I would have done it without a second thought."
"Are you the leader? I will not leave until your leader demands it of me. I will not follow the demands of someone who simply can't drop a grudge, no matter how understandable it is." She hissed, sitting down in hollow silence. The fire in her mind grew hotter and hotter with anger, but she held it back and she simply stared at her basket. "I fucking know this basket is nothing compared to the suffering of Tanglewood - I am only trying to be nice. I am only trying to show my sympathy." Again did her voice grow quiet, restraining herself as the fire burned even hotter beneath her skin.
"I care about life and freedom. Funny thing to say, I know, coming from a filthy Primus of Palm Glades, but it's true. I don't care for your thoughts, but if you want me gone, you'll have to wait until your leader agrees." Her words were coated in a poison, but they didn't cut the air like blades. They faded away with her quiet tone, and she stared at her basket as a sudden wash of regret, of anger, washed over her. "I am a fool to think tanglers were kind at heart and would be willing to listen."
