Memories
Isabel Night
I feel his presence, I know he's in that abandoned shrine. I can feel his energy, his light, and his soul. His aura is different, and yet, it is familiar. It is not the aura of a Warlord, but an aura of clam and serenity. His soul maybe cleansed, but he is still the Anubis I know and care about. He is meditating, trying to figure out why that damnable staff didn't kill Kayura. I really don't care if she lives or dies, I only know one thing: we're bringing Anubis back to the castle.
No one will ever replace Anubis. He was our leader, and even though we teased him, he will always be one of us. We are a family of four brothers; so how could Master Talpa think that another could take his place?
Sekhmet and Cale accompany me; they too can feel Anubis' presence. I'm very cautious; I know what he's capable of. I remember the incident at the train tracks, and how he defeated me with the greatest of ease using that damnable staff that had once belong the that monk, the Ancient One. I also remember how that girl and boy-child gave him the support that none of us dared to show him in Talpa's Throne Room. How I hate those two, and how sweet their deaths will be at the ends of my scythes. Rage fills my heart at the knowledge that Anubis has chosen those two and the five Ronin brats over us.
And yet, my mind flashes back to the train tracks. He told me that he would save all three of us from the Dynasty. My heart is hurting at those words, why would he care about us even after we brought him back to Master Talpa against his will? He walked away from us, but he says he's going to save us. How can you walk away from someone you love and still say you're going to save them?
I could blend in with the scenery, walk into that shrine, and kill the two weaklings. But something stops me from acting on that impulse. I take my scythes and shoot them though the floor of the shrine. I also make my presence known.
As he bursts out the door, I see Anubis wearing the clothes of that blasted monk. But what really enrages me is the fact that he is protecting those two annoyances.
When I see him, my heart fills with memories of the times we had together. As I look at my former leader, I see a strange light in his eyes. He is angry, but his eyes are full of light, like he has found finally found happiness. I look at him with my one good eye, "It's been a long time, Anubis."
