Phoebe
The crack noise that followed the rock hitting the jaw of the wolf make Phoebe wince. It was terrifying and horrifying all at once. But the ordeal would soon be over. Melita had hit her first target with ease of course, and Phoebe had managed to send this wolf running, its jaw terribly broken. That left only one which attacked Melita again. Another resounding crack from her staff against the skull of the wolf left the last of their attackers on the ground.
The lived. They lived.
Realizing the danger had passed, Phoebe was left shaking head to toe, relief succumbing to shock. She sank to her knees, the muscles in her legs no longer willing to support her weight. Had she been alone, she most certainly would not be so lucky. The blonde looked up at the redhead with wide-eyed admiration, and another realization dawned. Ronin had told her he never found any item to be particularly useful in and of itself, but being able to rely on those around him were key to survival. Melita, her companion in this fight, had been the reason she had survived. She was stronger and more capable, she had compelled her to act as well. She didn’t need a portal or a cape of invisibility or a shield, she needed a way to bring someone or something capable to protect her and her charges. Something that had the nature, that was made for the purpose of fighting and defense. Something that balanced her pacifist nature – the second side to her coin.
A light laugh escaped her lips and she shook her head lightly. ”As always Frey, you think several steps ahead of me.” she said quietly, smiling up at Melita. Then, loud enough for her to hear she spoke again, ”Thank you, for saving me.” she said.
