Mei-Lin was about to give him another sharp retort before complete confusion filled her features, "What?" She gasped and running moved forward to grab his arm, "What do you mean? How can you even say that?!"
Her voice was attempting to stay steady though her troubled gaze showed something in the unitaur. "Why is it that we always have to be seperated?" She repeated, "I don't understand that logic." Letting go of him she shook her head. It was stupid! How could they be strong seperated? That was their problem! Always seperating and hiding from the world! No wonder the nagas were such a threat to their kind when they allowed themselves to be like this. Mei-Lin hated that. It just wasn't right.

"I can say it because it's true!" Christian bellowed. His voice rang out over the valley, deep and true with a hint of darkness swirling in the core. He ripped her arm from his and grasped her wrist in a death grip.
"Your naivety betrays your age, girl. I know nothing of your past, nor do I care to know, but I know enough of mine for this truth to be true. The only result of our kind being in the same place as another is death. What part of that can't you comprehend?"
In her eyes, he saw his mother, his sister, his niece and nephew. The brother-in-law and father that had fought for them. The faces to the horns he had buried back home.

She was deathly silent as he spoke. Her gaze darkened and she didn't even flinch as he grasped her wrist. "I refuse to believe that." She finally replied, her voice a tiny whisper of determination. Nothing like the light voice that she had just had so earlier. "We are unitaurs. We have vast magics not given to any other kind, save for the darkest of the nagas. Yet, they fight. Cattaurs, Centaurs, Cervitaurs, Wolftaurs, and even Foxtaurs would fight."
She blinked, refusing to let the stream of tears pour out. Not now. "We are supposed to be a proud race. How can we do anything when all we do is hide?" The wind whipped around them, her hair free of its ornaments flew about her face. "I'm tired of this!" The tears were flowing now, "Why do we have to hide and fade away?"
Why did everyone she loved have to die?

"Why bother fighting a losing battle? Defend yourself, and stay out of sight. Even the simplest of fools can understand that." Christian's dark body shook, the magic that swam in the air around him electrifying to the touch. His head was telling him to walk away, but his soul refused to move. This was a battle in every way, even if it was just with words, even if he was close to making a female cry.
Her outburst shocked him, and still, he held no ounce of sympathy. Of understanding, or compassion. Even the fire in his eyes was slowly suffocating under the weight of his sins. "Either hide and fade away, or die." He spoke slowly, his voice as deep as death. "Choose wisely, and follow me no longer."
The dark unitaur merged with the shadows once more, and continued with his journey.
