Recap-
She couldn't understand why her emotions were on an up roar. It hurt not to tell but that's all she could do. She'd wait till she was under control and not addicted. Hopefully she'd stop and wouldn't need to tell. That's all she could do for the mean time. Closing her eyes she let one tear fall before dreamless sleep took her.
Now:
Cynthia walked down the stairs quietly but stopped as she heard two of her team mates talking. Normally, it was the oldest out of the group. Mali and Crow…Cynthia was the middle, followed by Staci and then finally Hillary. Her mind buzzed around slightly as she listened to the conversation of the two in the den.
"What do you think Crow?" Asked a rougher voice, soft and quiet, Mali, Cynthia concluded.
"I'm not sure…I mean…do you think it'll be worth it? All of our work…everything, do you honestly believe it'll be worth it in the end? Our fights are worse. You, I and Cynthia somewhat continued to stay in contact…" Stated Crow quietly, unsure as the twist of events.
Cynthia watched both quietly, knowing that things were about to get screwed even more. She watched as Crow got up and started to pace, she was thinking again. Thinking again probably thought Cynthia as she looked over slightly at Mali. She had prospered herself in the perfect lazy boy chair she had bought a while back. Black and full of the nice soft leather material making it even better this only brought a smile to her face. What couldn't be done at the moment? She knew it…they all knew it.
I'm going to need a miracle for this…A mir…acle…thought Cynthia and smiled wicked but stopped as the confrontation of the two girls continued.
"No…Crow calm down. It's not like we're here for anything else." Stated Mali easily, as she eyed her friend carefully, almost wondering if she had become insane…again.
"I know that, do you now get it? There isn't going to be a miracle anymore. Cynthia cannot keep getting us together." Snapped Crow in her all knowing tone, "I refuse to rely on a girl that is younger than us Mali…it's not right."
Cynthia walked down the stairs making a little noise to signal she was coming down. If that's what you think Crow, what right do I have to change that? Thought Cynthia, irritatingly, hiding her small itch to go back inside to grab something nice and sharp for her use to give some stress relief.
"Morning" called both girls softly,
"Morning" she called back as she walked in and opposite Mali and Crow.
"How did you sleep last night with all the excitement?" Asked Mali lying back more in the comfortable black chair.
"Fine and you two?" Asked Cynthia softly, mindful of the others up stairs asleep.
"Pretty good, and no need to worry about Jack either." Stated Crow easily, all the years had done her good in her lying ways.
Mali shot Crow a look that would have escaped Cynthia's gaze if she hadn't been directly opposite of them.
"Fine," Stated Mali, shrugging her shoulders, "I don't feel like talking much this morning though…"
"That's fine," Stated Cynthia and Crow shot her a look.
"What do you think is going to happen?"
Brown eyes clashed with purple, the intensity in both eyes as if trying to gaze into the other's soul.
"About?" She raised an eyebrow,
"I know you were over in the corner Cynthia." Hissed Crow agitated as Mali opened her eyes more to watch the scene.
"And what if I was Crow? You don't really want me around." Pointed out Cynthia her anger and pain easily hidden.
Purple eyes shifted away,
"I didn't mean for it-"
"You meant what you said. Nothing changes that." Spoke Cynthia calmly as she leaned forward her fingers entwined with each other.
Blue jeans gave her nice milky white textured skin a slightly glow as her off the shoulder black top made her look even paler. Her hair was tied up giving her a much more intimidating look. Black boots were on her feet easily displaying her natural way. Seriousness crossed her eyes never letting anything be shown.
This unnerved Mali slightly, she didn't like her friend indifferent, it would be dangerous that that time. Her black baggy pants rustled slightly when she moved to a better sitting possession. They both were fighters, Cynthia more so then Crow. But lately it seemed that this had changed. Hazel eyes watched carefully between the two, cat reflexes ready to jump if anything were to happen in a split second. Her hair was in a braid like always tied with a teal ribbon.
"What does that have to mean to me?" Asked Cynthia softly as she looked up at the standing girl "Is it because you suddenly want to try and be leader again?" Snapped Cynthia in full and utter dominance, her K9 was bared at the end.
Crow chirped slightly as she glared, "Anyone would be better then you! Do you think that it matters your 'ability to mend everything!' Why don't you get a grip?! The reason why we all split up was because you couldn't handle anything."
Brown eyes blinked once, as she stood slowly, her eyes never leaving Crow.
"I? I couldn't handle anything?" Snarled Cynthia as she took a step forward towards the girl that seemed to want a piece of her, then again, this was the fight that had ended everyone's friendship last time.
"You heard me." Spoke Crow calmly, her eyes even slightly dancing with life.
Mali stood up slowly, not wanting to get between these two again. Both knew how to fight and it wasn't pretty when they were at each other's throat…again.
"Well then, make yourself useful Crow. Get the others down here, after all that is normally my task as being captain but since you seem to want it oh so bad," Sarcasm started to spill from her lips, another deadly step. "Why not take it? Go. Shoo…go on, get the girls up, get them ready, and oh. Yes. While you're at that, don't forget to make sure each and every room is tidy along with the fact breakfast need to be done. Each girl dressed and to conclude are daily schedule…every blade ready for battle."
Purple eyes blinked as she registered what was going on. It was going to be that easy? Impossible… Cynthia was known for her strength and determination to never give up. But to give it up…this easily…a shiver coursed through her body.
"You make it seem harder than it is." Croaked Crow as she briskly walked away, things were going to be GOOD now.
Hazel eyes blinked a few times as she glanced at the impassive girl before her.
"Sin…"
"M?" Brown eyes looked at her, "yes?"
"You didn't just…"
A smirk played, "I did."
"But you…"
"She's smart babe, I won't deny that. But that's why this group works well together and also opposes each other. Every weakness on this team has to be figured with the personality of the person that holds it together." Stated Cynthia placing her hands on her hips as she smiled, "To be strong, impassive, diligent, and calm…also to remain as strict as possible…A leader's job is never done…" Smirked Cynthia as she placed a hand on her hip.
"Why did you hand it over then?" Curiosity got the better of her again.
"She wants it, so what right do I have?" Questioned Cynthia amusedly as she looked at Mali fully, "My job is for everyone to understand each other is it not?"
Silence followed her as she hummed softly listening to the slightly screams up stairs.
"Mali…do you know what everyone's job is on the team???"
Brown met hazel, hazel met brown,
"Not exactly…I mean…I never really thought about it. I didn't care, it was just people tossed together." Purred Mali slowly becoming satisfied from the answers she was receiving.
"Crow is probably the smartest person on our team." Mali blinked; surprised that Cynthia had admitted it. "Staci is the fire and competition to almost everyone, whether or not someone's better than her, the way she reacts, touches, speaks gives us a bit of a motivation." Mali nodded slightly, agreeing. "Hillary brings the humor; after all, we all pick on our youngest member. Without her, I don't think you Mali, could come up with your spiteful jokes and charisma because she always gives you fuel to do this." Thinking back, Mali nodded, "Like I've said…" Stated Cynthia sitting down on the couch that Crow had previously occupied, "You, Mali, give us that child drama, from everyone's situation. You are willing to tell it how it is. If you get that at least," A small smile formed on her lips as a cat like grin appeared on Mali's. "I…well; I guess I'm not sure. I'd like to say I'm the glue…but then maybe I'm wrong." Cynthia looked up slightly at the ceiling.
"How aren't you sure of yourself?" Asked Mali a bit confused, after all…she was the one that knew everything. Even if she was older, Cynthia always acted it.
"Because…" Stated Cynthia looking at her, "that's what I do. I've watched my family fall apart, I watched them what to kill one another, to hate each other. That wasn't ever supposed to happen. I myself believe that I bring the communication to everyone. Without that, I'm not sure how anyone would react. And I'm willing to try giving it up for Crow. Sometimes actions speak louder than words."
Mali nodded as she watched Crow come down, slightly frustrated in fact as she strolled to the kitchen.
"Okay…if she is leader does that mean she has to cook?"
Cynthia snickered, "mhm," it was soon answered by a Groan.
"I'mma die!"
She laughed; Today was going to be a long day.
