Sirius was sitting near the entrance doors, watching the fights. Half a dozen other dice were lined up outside the doors. It wasn’t their turn, but it soon would be. Stealth painfully limped past Sirius, giving a slight shake of her mane and a sigh as her comment on the situation.
Stealth stepped through the doors, doing her best to mask the injury and walk normally. She did not have far to go. Several medics rushed up to her and beckoned her to step on a small cart so they could treat her injuries and have her back for another round later.
Sirius hesitated.
He did not like this anymore than any of the other dice, but they had all agreed to go, do their best and withdraw. They were to attack with the goal of drawing blood. The dice had murmured amongst themselves about how Lexx was acting. That was far worse than harming their master or being hurt by him.
Lexx had shut down.
He was completely detached from what he was doing and try as they might, none of the dice were able to do the same.
It frightened them.
Sirius sighed and shook himself, assaulting himself with a flood of images from past battles. He had to attack. He had to evade and most important, he had to act like he meant it. One step in front of the other, the large dice picked up speed. His fur ruffled and jaws parted in a vicious snarl. He had every intention of sinking his teeth into Lexx the moment he got an opening.
