10: this is why we can't have nice things.

I don't own AT and it belongs to its rightful owners anything else belongs to AENR13. I'm so sorry for not updating in a while! I've been getting extremely busy with some things but once when it's 2014 I'll be able to update as much as I want! :D! Anyways leave your reviews I really appreciate them because it helps me to know how to drive the storyline so once from this point, things should take off and get interesting.

Envy runs out after Pride,

"STOP! PRIDE!" Envy struggles on keeping up with him as the sand starts slowing them down. Pride glances back at Envy, then disappears into a flame. Envy grunts as he knows what he's doing, traveling in short speeds of light to try putting distance between them. Envy does the same so there's sudden flashes of light in the form of lightning and fire in the air and disappearances. Pride appears back in his body for a split second and is about to disappear again when there's an explosion of sand and he's thrown against the ground. Pride snarls as Wrath pins him down against the ground,

"Let go of me!" Pride orders, Wrath doesn't listen as Envy appears next to them, Pride twists his torso trying to knock Wrath off of him, Wrath eyes flash for a second as he's getting annoyed by his brother, he presses his arm into Pride neck to keep him down.

"Don't be an idiot Pride! You have no idea where she's at! What?! What were you going to do huh?! Walk around aimlessly in the desert?!" Wrath yells into his face, "and if you left, what about Dustin huh?! They can kill you with you like this!" Wrath tries getting it through Pride's head about how he's weak and can't dare to take their uncles on and his crazy ex. Pride rolls his head to the side,

"I have to..." He mumbles underneath his breath, Wrath lowers his head confused

"Have to what?" Pride takes a deep breath, Envy sits down on the sand next to his brothers as curiosity starts taking the best of him

"That Celestial Spirit... You like her don't you?" Envy questions, Pride doesn't say anything, Wrath's eyes dart between them because the sudden silence is terrifying.

"Pride?" Wrath catches his attention, Pride nods

"I do. I can't believe she'd do something like that. She... Didn't tell me..." He bites down on his lip,

"I told her not to." They all look and Wrath gets off of Pride as Hatred appears. Pride has this shocked face on again, Pride rises

"What?! She told you and you let her go?!" Pride demands, Hatred nods slightly

"Yes. She made the proposal and originally she was just going to disappear but your mother and I managed to convince her to tell you that she had to leave. Your mother knew if that she left suddenly, you would have gotten worst." Hatred lets out a cry of shock as Pride has him down against the ground with Pride using his weight to keep him down. Pride's about to punch him when Wrath scoops his arms around Pride's torso and lifts him off. Hatred gets up with some help of Envy while Wrath holds Pride back.

"Get a grip of yourself!" Wrath grunts out as Pride's fighting against him to get Wrath to let go of him

"I swear let go of me Wrath!" Pride manages to throw his head back into Wrath's face with a loud "CRACK!" to crunch through the air. Wrath topples over as he grabs onto his broken nose with blood dripping out into the sand. Wrath eyes flash darkly and goes all out on Pride. Hatred and Envy lunge out as they try stopping Wrath from ripping Pride's face off. Hatred holds Wrath back, Hatred struggles against Wrath because even though he's stronger than him most of the time, when Wrath gets going, it's terrifying because Wrath suddenly turns violent and as long as he has a reason to destroy things, it's his adrenaline to become stronger than his dad. Wrath snarls and starts saying colorful language at Pride as he's being stubborn as usual. Wrath's skin molts as he's using his lava to get Hatred to let go, Hatred mumbles his groans as he still clings into him,

"KNOCK IT OFF." Love orders as she shows up trying to break the tension between her eldest sons. She glares at them, "I swear..." She grabs Wrath's jaw as she studies his broken nose, Wrath keeps glaring at Pride who returns the same glare at him from behind their mother's back. She mumbles something under her breath and looks at Pride, "See Pride, this is why we can't have nice things... Wrath, there's no need to be so lenient towards violence... You maybe part Nightmares but you're not savages like complete ones..." Hatred narrows his eyes at her causing her to give a sorry kind of face. "You know it's true." He rolls his eyes

"You know, there's some things that I can say that they got from your part of the family." Hatred throws out there, even though he really doesn't get along with his family or frankly doesn't care, he doesn't like it whenever she makes cheap shots about his family. Love glares at him

"Oh yeah like what?" She dares him, Hatred doesn't say anything, "That's what I thought... There's nothing you can say..." She's about to go scowl her sons when Hatred snorts, she puts her hands on her hips and looks at him "What's so damn funny?" She demands, he shakes his head

"It's not that there isn't something to say it's just that well, my wife's a Dream so I wouldn't want to offend you." He says the last part sarcastically. She narrows her eyes at him

"Shut the hell up Hate." She orders so he throws his hands into the air. Even though she's generally nice, she has a mean streak in her and honestly, he doesn't like seeing it. It reminds him way too much of the things he hates about his family. She rolls her eyes as she grabs Pride

"Let's get you home. Envy," Envy gets on the other side of Pride as she pulls him up, she looks at her other son and husband

"Wrath, go down to stables and prepare my horse please. I have some things to arrange with my family." Hate lets out a startled tchk

"You're not going there are you?" He questions, she doesn't reply, she looks over to Wrath

"Please?" Wrath nods then disappears. Hatred closes his jaw.

Wrath pulls down the straps on the saddle while Love's horse prances in place. The door to the stables opens so Wrath glances up, he's surprised to see that it's his dad. Hatred walks past by him and opens the top window to the holding cell that holds his horse, a horse's face that's dark as a moonless night emerges and gives out a happy noise.

"Where you going?" Wrath questions, Hatred lets the horse out and looks at him

"Bringing Carmella back and going to try stopping the pair of idiots that happen to be by brothers, care to join? It's been a while since we've gone out on a hunt." Hatred offers, Wrath smirks

"It has been Dad." They both smirk. Hatred and Wrath mount on their horses, Wrath grabs the reins while Hatred just lets his horse wander around. The horse stops so Hatred glances down at it

"You okay Night?" He questions, Night tosses his mane back so Wrath comes up.

"Ready?" Hatred nods so they take off.
