[Minoshia and Tapion meet Violet and Civil Unrest]
The Konat brethren held each other dearly, Minoshia's arms slowly slipping away from Tapion's back. The older slowly let go as well, watching his younger sibling slip back against the rock formation behind the bush. They looked into each other's eyes, and they both noticed the physical and the mental change. The dark prince's eyes had grown pitch black; the sight of the dead animal was enough to raise the dormant creature within. Minoshia reached out and stroked Tapion's cheek, the older looked slightly concerned, but it was nothing they hadn't experienced before. The mental instability of the youngest child had always been a concern the Konat Royal Family had been dealing with, and ever since his long visit to hell, these lapses seemed more and more frequent.
Something rumbled in the small pond on the other side of the bush. Minoshia had heard the screams of the dying animal beyond the pond, but had only used it to fuel himself. He turned, rotating on his knees and peered through a break in the bush leaves. It was a woman, a very attractive beast woman, washing the blood off her body. The Blood...
Minoshia wanted to explode and tear off the beast's head, he knew he didn't want to, but his instinct was now to kill. His rage was on overload, the only thing holding him back was he knew this person wasn't an enemy, it seemed so familiar. His brother leaned over his shoulder; Minoshia managed to leak out a smile. His blood lusting thoughts still managed to enjoy the company of family, and allies. Who is that woman..? So much like Selipa... but so different.
It's Violet, partially transformed. A sharp pain throbbed in Minoshia's head, as his mind locked horns. The silver streak in his vision pulsed violently.
I thought you were gone! Get out! All the fighting, the years of it, all the mind battles, all the blood. It all surged to the surface, and Minoshia fought desperately to push it all back down. The Silver streak in his vision began to fade as he focused his energy entirely on suppressing his murderous thoughts. They would wait. Minoshia was twitching again, his body having what seemed like a minor seizure. Everything hurt; his older brother wrapped his arms around him, trying to calm him down.
"Someone there?" The women from the pond whispered, probably to her. Minoshia suddenly stopped shaking, the combination of Tapion and the women's smooth voice drew him out of the state he had been in. The Dark Prince rose above the bush and walked out, on the opposite side of the pond, motioning for his brother to follow suit.
"Minoshia?" He only nodded to her confused tone, he probably seemed different. He waited patiently for her to make another move he felt very uncomfortable standing here, but it felt wrong to intrude on her bathing.
"I-I'm Tapion." The older waved towards her; she merely waved back, her eyes trying to unravel Minoshia and the mysterious aura that surrounded him. He seemed more, well, violent. He looked as if he couldn't decide if he wanted to slit her throat or make love to her, either option she wouldn't allow, but regardless, his nature had changed.
The younger Konat put his hands behind his back, lacing them together and proceeding to march in a formal way around the edge of the small pond, the eyes of the women following his every motion. He continued this display until he reached the basin, where she stood. He reached out and glided his fingers through her hair, making her jump back slightly, still moderately confused. The Konat opened his mouth, unveiling his fangs.
"Good Morning."
