6 The Meaning Behind The Bites (2/2)

”I call it 'Sunlight Fenrir'. With it, I can cover my body in a type of protective cloak while having the ability to slash and burn anything. Sadly, I can only form it around my hands currently. That night, I slaughtered all the humans who imprisoned us before escaping with my sleeping sister.”

Giving a small nod, Magna released a sigh of relief hearing that they were unharmed. However, a huge disgust towards the human extremists rooted itself in his heart.

”What about Luna? Is she okay?” Asked Magna as he stared in concern at the sleeping ball of white fluffy happily curled up in his lap.

Argo's previous angry expression seemed to fade as a huge smile replaced it. ”She's fine now. The drug was slowly losing its affect and would have most likely completely disappeared from her system after a couple more months. However, thanks to you, she's not only completely healed but the drug was forcefully expelled from her system.”

Silently muttering, ”That's good…” Magna started to softly pat Luna's head, earning a silly smile from the sleeping wolf girl.

Argo smiled before saying, ”Now, about the bite. It's a ritual held in our village. It has different meanings for different occasions but it basically marks you as our brother.”

Suddenly, Magna gave her a weird look before muttering, ”And why would that be so hard to tell me?”

With a wry smile, Argo rubbed the back of her head and shyly replied, ”Well, I didn't know how you'd feel about suddenly gaining sisters. Also, there's the fact that we're faunus and that you might not like that so-”

Before she could finish, Magna cut her off as he said, ”Why would I mind about you girls being faunus?”

Time seemed to freeze as Magna stared at Argo with a look that said 'Why are you stupid?' While Argo just blankly stared back. And if anyone was looked down at Luna, they would notice the slight twitching from her ears.

Dumbfounded, Argo blankly muttered, ”Why you say… we're faunus, you know!”

Tilting his head, Magna confusingly replied, ”Yeah, and?”

Argo suddenly seemed angry as she practically screamed, ”Humans hate us! They call us 'trash' and 'vermin', they discriminate us, blame us, all types of cruel things! And all you have to say is 'Yeah, and?'!?!”

A large tick mark suddenly appeared on Magna's head as he angrily roared, ”Don't f.u.c.king mess with me! I ain't like those idiots who only know how to brag! I judge people on what I see, not by their race. And what I see are a pair of sisters that have chosen me to be their brother and I'm d.a.m.n happy to be given the opportunity!”

Argo seemed at a loss for words. All her life she's only been met with discrimination and cruelty. And yet, this young boy said he was happy to be given the opportunity to be their brother. Unknown to the sisters, a fluttery feeling began to take root in their hearts.

Giving an embara.s.sed cough, Argo blushed as she happily said, ”Well then… I'll be counting on you, big brother.”

A smile made it's way on Magna's face as he cheerfully replied, ”Leave it to me!”
