Chapter 49: Mirror Image

"An' why is that, mate," Bunny said with a touch of annoyance, standing to his feet and gripping onto his boomerangs.

"Well, shouldn't she be preparing rather than being held by what? A Kangaroo?"

"You take that back you bloody-"

"Enough. Both of you," you said, "now is not the time for this. What is the reason by your presence in the Royal side of the arena."

"Oh cut the formal talk (Y/N)!" Demitrius chuckled, "we're just in front of a little rabbit. I think he deserves to hear us."

Your eyebrows furrowed as you swung your arm out in front of Aster, right before he could do anything of course.

"What were you saying about Rogue," you said, "why is this concerning her."

"I just think it's rather funny," he laughed, standing before you and gripping onto your chin, "she reminds you of me every day. If she simply walks past you, you look at her as if she is a monster."

Your lips parted for a moment at his words, they stung. Your nails dug into your skin as you curled your fists, "I am so pissed I can't punch you in the face..."

"I am relieved for that rule," he chuckled, "you know...we could go back to what we used to be. We could forget about everything that ever happened between us."

You gagged at his words and took a step backwards, gripping onto Bunny's paw.

"No? Well that's a shame," he said, shrugging his shoulders, "I was hoping that you'd comply, perhaps we could've skipped the entire Games."

"Me? Give up a chance to do what's in my blood? Fat chance."

"Being a dragon rider may be in your blood, but as is your Hyperonian heritage," he said, facing away from you, "face it, (Y/N). You're an alien to Earth, you were never meant to arrive here in the first place."

"I may be an Alien but that doesn't change anything about me," you said, stepping forward and grasping your fist around his tie, "you are the human here. You are of a weaker kind. You are nothing compared to the blood of a warrior."

Demitrius listened as your words struck him, your tight grip on his tie straining his breath as it wrapped tighter around his throat. He acted calm, but his slight gasps for air were noticeable.

Moments went by as the skin around his throat turned a slight purple colour, not wanting to kill him just yet, you released him.

He stumbled backwards slightly, readjusting his armour and suit before walking out, a snarl plastered to his face.

"Bloody coward..." you said, crossing your arms and tapping your feet slightly, "I'm so sorry you had to see that, Bunny..."

"If yer pet here wasn't holding me back ah woulda tossed that guy," Bunny said, staring at Erebus's tail that was wrapped around his foot.

"Erebus! Release him!" You demanded, your fists falling to your hips. Erebus sighed and uncurled his tail from Bunny's ankle, "if your partner here had done anything, Demitrius would have killed him on the spot, M'lady."

"Ah'm not weak, ya bloody lizard," Bunny growled, glaring at Erebus, who only chuckled.

You sighed and reached your hands up to the sides of Bunny's face, holding him gently. Almost immediately, a small grin made it's way onto his face, leaning into your warmth.

"You should probably get back to the others, they'll be wondering where you are..." you said, resting your hands on his shoulders with a small smile.

"Looks like ah'll have ta listen to North shout and cheer," Bunny chuckled, "thank tha god that he ain't drinkin' any eggnog..."
