Keep your breathing slow
The blankets shifted and moved as Trynian's breathing became slightly more light once he started to relax next to her. Eliras had been awake scince he had been home, she had followed his heartbeat and footsteps trough the room while she made sure Edhellen would not make a suden move forcing her to breath more deeply and make him notice she was awake.
What seemed to be like ages slips past, as he rolled around in bed a few times, wraped a arm around her or just lay staring up at a roof. The sound of three pair of heartbeats, two thought filled breathings and one calm one filled the warm night. It had rained the past few hours, and it had only made sure the heat in the houses had become even more then always.
Eliras open her eyes doubtfully, holding her own breath so she could hear his better and figure out if he was asleep. A soft and deep male mumble filled the room, Edhellen awnsred back to her father with a soft mumble of her own.
Once outside the city was lit by the moon and stars holding the purple glow that always seemed to excists in Darnassus alive even while it was night. She had a simple dress on, the brown one that she had bought when Trynian and she had moved into the small house in Westfall.
Over her shoulder hing a bow, it was rather large for a elf like her and seemed unfit to be used. The maker of the weapon had raised his eyebrows when Eliras asked for it, a old design she had asked for, one that was used in the days when the high elves still stood next to the night elves.
She stared at the tree up ahead of her, almost not visible unless she turned her eyes to small slits and peeked straight at it, most peopel would never have even noticed the tree unless they knew it was there. She loaded a arrow into the bow and pulled back the string, her breathing instantly growing more heavy as she strained her body to handle such a weapon.
Sweat broke on her eyebrows as she let the string go and her muscles tensed and the bow shot up afther the arrow had slipt from the string. Flying towards the tree at a amost invisible speed she clearly still knew how to handle such weapon untill she cursed herself when the arrow missed.
'keep your breathing slow Eliras, come on. What would Edhellen think of you?'
She loaded a second arrow while her mind started to drift off, thoughts she had been keeping to herself for a few nights now came back into her vision again. Anger, depresion and even hate mixed for a split second before she let the arrow go and screamed.
She had drawn the string back to far and it had backfired, finger slipping away the arrow moved back and with the force already on it cut open her arm. Blood gushed down from her shoulder as the cut had run all the way up there starting at her fingers, the dress stained itself fast in the deep red color while she droped to her knees and started to scream.
Picking up her bow instantly she lay in a arrow and aimed for the tree, her breathing calm and controled she held back the pain and shot. At the moment the arrow had let itself go she knew it would hit, her aim was dead on this time and nothing had given her shots more deadly inpact then the only hate she could feel.
She leaned against the tree, a arrow straight in the middle of it as she held her arm tightly with her free hand trying to keep the bleeding under control. The bow was held tightly in her other hand as she stared at the arrow, having hit its target perfect.
'I told you we would not be friends'
She smiled at herself for just a second as she grabed the arrow and broke it in two, the front part still inside the tree its metal point having gone straight trough the tabard he always had on scince they came back.
