He sighed. "Connor doesn't know anything about you. He just knows what he's heard, and about your family. And believe it or not, Tsurai, he took a good couple of hits defending you.. In his own, strange little way he's looking out for you." He smiled at the squeezing. "What a dysfunctional little family we are."

Tsurai smiled weakly, although Isiah couldn't see it since the boy was still hugging him.
"I love you, Isiah," he whispered. "I'm so jealous fo Connor..."

He laughed a little. "I think you love me a little differently than Connor does.. Could." He corrected. "And I love you a little differently than I do Connor. You hurt me pretty bad when you left with Alex, Tsurai."

"I know. I'm sorry." Tsurai, with a groan, sat up, wiping his face even though it was already dry.
"Let's go back, now?"

"Okay," he started. "Try to keep yourself together. It's not as bad as you think it is." This was generic, cookie cutter advice, but sound nonetheless. He stood, brushing off the seat of his pants, picking up the canteen and screwing it's lid on securely.

Tsurai pushed himself up with a sniffle. He walked forward, looking up at Isiah.
"Connor really took hits for me? But... He hates me..."

"Connor works in mysterious ways, kiddo." He shrugged, absently. "I was a little surprised when I heard it, too. But... I think he has his own wierd way of reading people. He just read you wrong and is trying to make up for it." He slung the canteen over his shoulder and shoved his hands into his pockets.

Tsurai looked down, mentally trying to keep himself in pace with Isiah, which was slow for him.
"Who was Connor fighting?"

"Kaegan," He said, simply. He didn't expect Tsurai to understand the ramifications of that, really. It'd be easier for everyone around if he didn't- no questions to answer..

Tsurai's brows furrowed and he looked up at Isiah again. "Kaegan? How could Connor be protecting me from Kaegan? He was doing fine.." Tsurai looked off.
"The last thing he said to me before I ran off was 'you want me to walk with you'? I told him I was afraid of Connor, and he said that when Connor passed us.."

Isiah sighed. "Connor doesn''t know about me and Kaegan''s.. History, otherwise I''m sure the animosity would be much worse, but.. There''s never been any love lost between them, Tsurai. I''m not quite sure how it happened, but I''m not exactly surprised that it did."

Tsurai was confused. What Isiah had said didn't make any sense to him.
"But you said Connor took the hits for me. So that owuld mean he was protecting me from whatever Kaegan was doing... But Kaegan wasn't doing anything wrong." Tsurai frowned.
"So it doesn't make sense."

"Taking hits for your HONOR, kid, not just for you. He was.. defending you.. in his own.." He groaned. "Just don't ask. Hell, I'm not even sure anymore. Maybe if Connor's in a good mood you can ask when we get back, okay?"

"My hon--oh!" Tsurai turned around and jogged to where they had come from. Tsurai was looking for his dogtags.
"Where did you throw them.." He stopped once he was sure he wa sin the spot they were sitting in before, although one couldn't be sure since everything out here looked exactly the same.

He grunted, shaking his head back and forth. "Tsurai, leave them."
