"Rage? You are scaring me..." Shou watched her closely, unsure of what to do. No one in his family had ever acted this way and no one had ever told him how to deal with such an thing. His chest heaved and he took a step beck from his companion. His claws twitched against the dirt at her words.
Hurt him?
Rage had never done anything to hurt him before. No one had done anything to hurt him. Well, people had done things to hurt him but not anything he couldn't recover from in a day or two. Shou gulped and moved slowly towards her, ignoring her pleads for him to leave.
"You won't hurt me..." He hadn't know what really happened to her in the past. Could it have been the family she had talked of before. "That was in the past. I'm Ru Shou. You just met me not even months ago...months ago" He repeated, taking another step towards her. "Whoever it was that was taken from you Rage...isn't me. It would never be me."

"You don't understand!" Rage said with a snarl, her eyes beginning to have somewhat of a glow, her eyes weren't themselves, she was becoming something else. No, it hadn't happened in so long! Where was Nix, Nix needed to come, needed to shock her, get her out of this! She felt herself falling, being caged, and she struggled against the internal chains while a voice in her head laughed maniacally.
"I can't help it sometimes, I can't...I don't want to hurt you, I could hurt you Ru, I wouldn't have a choice, please, pleas don't let it happen again please..." tears streamed form the corners of her glowing eyes, but not clear, red, pouring red.
What appeared as black smoke started seeping from her paws, and it burned her to the touch, though scorched no flesh.
She needed Nix, needed her to stop herself.
Not here, not here.
"Go get her Ru, go get her please...Nix, call for Nix...don't let me hurt you...please"

Shou shuffled away from her, not quite knowing what was wrong. She was a goddess. Not his kind. How would he know what was wrong? Obviously he really didn't understand.
"If that is what you want." He bowed his head a took one last look at her before dashing off. He didn't want to leave her alone like like that but he had to find her sister.
"Nix..." He whispered her name as he continued on his way. Shou was completely overwhelmed by what was happening but all he could do was listen to what she said.
"Nix! Nix! Rage needs you!"

Rage was curling up as tight as she could, a growl and snarl escaping her maw as she felt as if she was caught in a haze, it was dark now, torn, a gray in between, a darkness pulling in the light as if trying to consume it. It had happened before, she didn't want it happening again, supposed to be gone! This was supposed to have ended.
She was torn, and fighting, black aura flickering around her as if she was aflame.
She didn't want him hurt.
Lounging in the sun, oh how wonderful it was here. Nix'Annada was not too far away, but was musing to herself tus not feeling hte pulse of rage emitting from her sister. When her name was called by one unfamiliar, she felt her heart drop, blue eyes opening immediately she dashed off towards hte voice, wings curled on her back.
She didn't care for an illusion now.
What was happening?
"Yes, yes, who's calling?! Why, where, whats happened?"

The red male skidded to a stop at hearing the unfamiliar voice. He was out of breath, shaking and probably not looking very good after watching one of his closest friends going through what he suspected was a breakdown of some sort.
Of course, he'd never mat Nix before. He really had no idea how she would react to him. His fear would have to come in later.
"I...I am Ru Shou. Rage sent me to find you. She's..." He didn't know how to put it anyway. Why didn't anyone give names to their problems anymore? "She's not feeling well at all. She's afraid of hurting me."

Hurting him? "Oh god no..." Nix tore off in the direction of which Ru had come. He had done hte right thing, though whether or not he would follow her back to find the black goddess was completely up to him. Rage didn't want him hurt though, so if he followed, Nix prayed he'd stay a good distance away.
How had this come to happen?
Rage must've worried.
Skidding to a halt NIx's eyes fell on the dark form of her sister. Black aura like a fire coating her sister's form, and Nix took a step closer, the aura flickering out at her, as is reaching to pull her into hte burning sensation.
"Rage?" she called out softly, soothingly, Nix saw a flicker of glowing silver.
It was too late.
"Rage...listen its alright, everything will be fine...Rage, Rage look at me please?"
Rage was clawing and fighting and snarling within the confines of hte corners of her mind. A voice now, so familiar and soft, so soothing, eyes now focused on her sister, and she felt a pull, felt an urge to lash out, but she couldn't Nix was her sister, Rage could never hurt her, never.
Never wanted to..just like them...him, her...just like how she didn't want to have hurt them either...and now Ru.
She didn't want to hurt him, didn't want to.
"P-please...m-make i-it stop..." she choked, blood streaming from her eyes, making them sting.
Tears were her downfall, they pained her so.
Nix watched her, let their eyes fall on each other once more before she started hte charge, sparks flying off from her wings, surging around her paws, her horns, a bright blueish white glow surrounding her,
"I'm sorry..." she closed her eyes, she didn't want to watch, and a bolt of lighting surged and shot from her paws and horns, crashing into Rage. She heard Rage gasp as it hit, every shock caused her pain in her joints and weak heart, and hte black goddess fell to hte ground in silence, the consciousness knock right out of her.
It was the only way Nix knew how to stop it, adn she wished there had been another way.
Nix didn't know if Ru was close, but if he wished to go close to her sister now, she wouldn't push him away.
It was safe now.

Ru Shou took his time to get back to the assumed pair. He didn't want to interfere in whatever was wrong with Rage. Had he caused it? She did say that she didn't want to hurt him. Paranoia began to set in as he continued closer to them. Could he have actually caused it? He was almost certain of it. The wine red male sighed, letting his mane fall over his eyes in a silent lament. For some reason, he had an ache in his muscles. Nothing from running but from the anxious feeeling in his mind.
Rage had gotten that way around him. It had to do with him. Everything that happened. Shou didn't even know if she was alright. He couldn't even help her.
Suddenly, he broke into a run, following the path he'd taken before until he came upon the two shapes. Shou hung his head in shame before making his way closer, almost moving on tip toe. "Rage?"

Nix lay next to her sister, let her side touch Rage's and let her head rest on her paws, she closed her eyes, and draped a wing over Rage's body, to know Nix was still there, that it was alright. Rage was probably half dazed, and Nix opened her eyes slightly to look to Ru, he looked hurt, pained, Nix hoped he knew it wasn't his fault, Rage just...something was triggered, and Rage got so afraid that she had lost it. Nix just hoped he'd understand.
She closed her eyes again, suddenly feeling tired, no time to walk back to hte den now, might as well nap here.
At least Rage was under control.
"Ru?" her eyes half opened, her muscles ached, she winced as she took a breath, silver hues peering up at Ru, he looked so sadenned, and she reached out a paw to bat at his, and pull back, letting her cheek rest on her paw, "Its not your fault...I just...didn't want you hurt....please..." she said softly, closing her eyes, "Please don't stop smiling because of me...please..." she felt so tired, exhausted and could barely move. Nix was close, and Ru was here, she needed sleep, rest, but didn't want Ru to leave in all honesty.
Her wings fell slightly from her back, but stayed close to her side as if silently inviting him to stay close too, that it was alright, that it wasn't his fault.
Her breathing calmed as she slipped off from consciousness into darkness, but those she cared for were there.
Those she cared for.
