Snare wandered the halls of Warnado, curious as to where his little brother had gone now.
Petrify had had another argument with Father that morning, claiming that Father was telling them lies, that the four siblings were really humans not mutants and all his other usual spiels. It unfortunately wasn't an uncommon argument for the boy to make, but for some reason Father had had a shorter temper today than normal.
Instead of ordering Petrify to hold his tongue before explaining how this only proved that the boy was still under the humans' control, Father had actually struck Petrify. He'd hit the youngest right in the face with the back of his fist, knocking Petrify to the ground and drawing blood as well.
It was only thanks to his strict training that Snare hadn't drawn his weapon and challenged their Father for doing that. He'd also seen how his other two siblings had shown signs of restraint at the attack, though Dark Wing had pulled back his lips in a silent snarl of disapproval.
Father had then ordered Petrify to the boy's quarters, telling him that he was to stay there until further notice. Seemingly, Petrify had obeyed, but as Snare had expected when he went to look for him later, the boy hadn't been in his rooms at all.
Which led to where he was now, searching Warnado for his little brother, though at an admittedly lazy pace. He knew that Petrify had to be on the ship somewhere, for the dark dramen would have been ordered to not let Petrify leave Warnado, not until Dread gave the order to let him out.
Besides, Snare figured that this would be like the other times when Petrify and Father had clashed, that Petrify would likely be sulking somewhere if he wasn't taking his anger out on something. After several minutes of not finding the boy anywhere within the crashed ship, Snare finally got a good idea of where to look.
Heading towards his own room, Snare activated the sliding door and stepped inside. Sure enough, there was his little brother, laying on the bed and sleeping soundly. Petrify must have fallen asleep waiting for him, either that or he'd snuck in here to nap while avoiding Father.
Whatever the reason, Snare didn't wake him. Instead, he pulled out a spare blanket and settled over his little brother to help the boy sleep. Though Father had warned them about spoiling Petrify, Snare felt his little brother needed some comforting then. Besides, a nap never hurt anyone and it would help the boy heal from the blow he'd taken.
That settled, Snare crossed his room to his weapons rack and pulled one of the blades free after digging out his polishing kit. Sitting down, he got to work on ensuring the blade had a good edge and was clean of rust. Mostly it was busy work until Petrify woke up, but Snare didn't mind waiting.
It let him organize his thoughts for revenge on Father anyway.
