Biru

He thinks he is doing well, but that soon proves to be very, very wrong.

It all starts with the mist. Annabelle, in her confusion and fear, had completely missed where Caneo was standing. She didn’t even realize that until her bonded, in both attacks hit nothing but air. Even worse, the princess turned Biru’s attack against him.

Before Biru’s confused and defeated mind can even process it, hooves come flying at his face. In a knee jerk reaction, Biru throws his head into the air, a move to at least keep his horn firmly attached to his head. The Princess hit hard, his dainty little feet landing squarely against Biru’s jaw. The left side of his face seemed to explode with pain, stars crossed his eyes, and his once cocky, bloody smile had been smeared into a frown. Annabelle screamed, curling up against the corner of the deck even more. How could a princess be so terrifying?

With one more rock of the boat, Biru’s sight had cleared. His brain, however, was still in shock. At the moment, he can see the human attack this princess. He watches, in odd amusement, as it cuts into his soft, grey flesh. Biru wants to attack then, but he can’t, he still needs a few moments.

He doesn’t have moments though, as soon as the human is done with Princess, it comes running after Biru. The cutlass gleams in the reflection of the crescent moon as the human raises it. Biru jumps to the side, showing his right to the pirate. The cutlass comes down upon his green sweater, easily cutting the thin fabric and into the skin of his shoulder. Biru expected it to burn as much as the bruise on his face, but it didn’t. The metal slid so cleanly through his skin, he could barely tell it was there. What he didn’t know, was that the wound was bleeding, and rather profusely. The red liquid poured from the wound, staining the right side of his jacket a deep, disgusting red color. Annabelle, who was by now so stressed, passed out in the corner, she was not used to her bonded getting so beat up.

Feeling enraged by his bondeds distressed, and not wanting to get sliced again, Biru followed behind Caneo. This princess would pay for the pain! The boat rocks, creaks and groans as he runs across the uneven boards. Nails stick up awkwardly along the deck, and Biru is careful to dodge them. There is no way he can take a nail into his hoof right now.

Hoping to move behind Caneo, he no longer cares about his pain. Biru cannot feel his face burning; he can’t feel the shallow wound on his left flank, or the uncomfortable rubbing of fabric against an open wound. Instead, he feels a burning rage bubbling inside of him. This princess just kept running! He had no dignity! Instead of fighting like a man, he runs like a scared little baby!

Hopefully still behind Caneo, Biru reaches out towards his left hind leg, and snaps down. Biru wants to bite straight through his cannon bone if he can. Biru wants to make him limp off this ship. He doesn’t even care anymore if he kicks or not, Biru is more than ready to loose a set of teeth than to let Princess get away with this.
