Summary: Slightly altered first meeting between David and Griffin.

14/100: Annoyed

"Use your imagination. You think you are out there by yourself but that's not what it's about. Enemies surround you. Start acting like it."

An eyebrow was all the response David gave this strange person in front him. He had the strange thought he might have seen him sometime before, but when he could not think of any time he let the thought go. The male was several inches shorter than he himself was and a mop of messy brown hair and intense eyes completed the picture. Why this man was so annoyed was unknown to him.

"What enemies?" David asked in a low voice, eyes never leaving the man in front of him.

"Them," was the only response David got. The voice had an irritated edge to it.

With a frown David glanced backwards towards the place the brunette was glaring at and saw two men in grey robes quickly approaching them.

"There's a war going on and they're the bad guys." There was a slight shift in the air and before David knew it he saw the brown-haired man appear about twenty feet in front of him, ready to fight these two strange robed men. "You'd better start acting like it, David."
