LJ Idol: Week 4
So, I took a strike for week 3 because I had the dreaded Business Calculus exam that I had to study for. I posted about how that went down.
Anyway. LJ Idol, Week 4 entry!
This is NOT in the same series as the entries from weeks 1 and 2.
This week's prompt is "The axe forgets; the tree remembers". I think this is around 350 words?
Along with "The Great Pack Divide of 2014" was a splitting of resources. There was no way that Derek was going to continue to work with his mother's former emissary, especially not when the man himself said he was a disgrace of an Alpha. With those spoken words, Deaton wasn't expecting Stiles to be in the room when this was said, nor was he expecting to be magically cut off from access to The Nemeton.
"The axe forgets; the tree remembers," Stiles said. Deaton, Scott, and Lydia turned to face Stiles. "You aren't the only one who can be a cryptic asshole. Emissary Deaton, by order of Alpha Hale, you have been stripped of your access to the territory. By order of the Council of Druids, you have been stripped of your access to The Nemeton. Effective immediately."
"Stiles...what are you doing?" Scott asked as he moved to stand in front of his friend.
"The axe forgets; the tree remembers," Stiles repeated. "I'm carrying out my duty has handed to me by Elder Druid Zagovory."
There was a flicker of realization on Deaton's face; he was quick to mask it but Stiles caught it. "He is in territory that he has no business being in," Deaton responded.
Stiles gave a humorless laugh. "I'm in territory that I have no business being in? That's rich coming from you."
"There's no way you could possibly know any of the Elder Druids," Deaton said.
Stiles closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and when he opened them again, they were a swirling violet color. "Jestem początkiem i końcem. Widziałem zniszczenie przeszłości i zniszczenia, które dopiero nadejdą z twoich rąk. Nie można już ukrywać prawdy przed rodzinami Stilinskich i Zagovory." (translated using Google translate: I am the beginning and the end. I have seen the destruction of the past and the destruction yet to come at your hands. You can no longer hide the truth from the Stilinski and Zagovory families.)
"I have always known of my spark. Even before you told me about it and tried to 'teach' me to use it. My Grandfather is Elder Druid Aleksandr Zagovory and when he tells me to do something, I do it."
