Echo's paws began to slip off of her face, and she finally caught glimpses of her sister moving through the rocks to get at her. Surprised, she lifted her head instantly and cricked her tail nervously. Was this real?
Stretching her neck out, she cautiously touched noses with her sister. This must be real, if she could feel Ophelia. Illusions couldn't be felt. At least she thought so and hoped so. Driven by the hope that this was really her sister, the omega looked around her carefully. There was no sign of that brute from before, but she knew better than to think he was gone now.
"U-up, sister?" she asked, blinking a few times as if she didn't quite understand. "I can't. My head hurts so much... he hit me." She paused for a moment to look around again.
"Sister... you must leave him alone. He'll do bad things... really bad things! He already.." She cried and threw herself down onto the ground, shaking her head and acting hysterical. Something moved in her stomach, but she payed it no heed.
"We've already lost."

Ophelia’s head throbbed with rage as she moved around Echo, nosing her face and chin, and slowly assessing the damage. “No-!” She muttered, her voice as harsh and raw as a razor. “We have not lost. He can’t do anything to me. No one can.” Her head flinched against the idea, and she licked the inside of her sister’s ear. No one can, no one can!
It became a kind of mantra repeated in her head, and it made her fur stick on end and her yellow eyes wild with anger. She would protect her sister. This wolf- whoever the hell his name was, wasn’t going to do a damn thing to her again, and certainly not to Ophelia.
Ophelia became vaguely aware that her breaths were becoming haggard, and she slowly attempted to regular the pace between them. She could not become frantic. She had to keep a cool mind about it, but it was not helping with Echo’s morale suddenly dropping. A tiny voice in the back of her mind was already whispering doubt. If Echo had given up, then truly things were going to hell.
Who was this wolf? She shuddered furiously. An operative of their parents? Who would do something like this?

Echo flinched slightly as her sister nosed her face. Blinking a few times, she sniffed at Ophelia's face, ears cocking to the side every once in a while. That blow to the head had really taken a lot out of her, and she wasn't sure if her sister really was there or not. She heard her and smelled her but... was it real?
Shaking her head, she tried to focus in on the image of her twin. Her vision faded in and out randomly, and suddenly things began to spin.
"Sister... stop... stop moving," she murmured, her paws scrabbling about on the ground. She coughed then shook her head again, her vision coming back into focus. A few seconds later, however, it was fading in and out again. What was happening? She couldn't see, and it was freaking her out not being able to look at her sister.
"O-Ophelia," she whispered, her neck and head now swaying back and forth as she began to lose her vision again.
"Sis....ter."
Suddenly her head dropped to the ground and her eyelids fell back over her dull eyes. Her mental connection with her sister flickered then died. Echo had fainted, the trauma to her head having overpowered her body.

Ophelia gave a strangled yelp as Echo passed out, her head drooping to the ground eerily like a kind of dead animal. Nervously she began to hyperventilate, but attempted to keep control of her breaths long enough to move Echo’s head more comfortably against the rocks, and sprawl herself on top of the other in paranoid protection...
