Listening to Cassandra lay into Chiyo, Angus cracked a sly smile. While he was completely ready to stand alone against this self righteous bitch, it was a still a relief to know he wasn’t alone in defending the poor Itsuko. Every word Cassandra spoke reaffirmed Angus’s point in greater detail. When she finished and went to help Itsuko, Angus gave her a soft nod to say thanks. But now it was Chiyo turn to fire back, and she was fuming.
To Angus’s surprise, he was practically brushed aside. Sure she called him a
“little brat” but that was mild compared to what he’d been called in the past, and he really expected more from someone like her. Unfortunately, she did have more, much more, but she chose to direct all of it at Cassandra. She made it clear she didn’t give a single shit about her image and berated Cassandra for even thinking it, followed by threatening her for bringing up Chiyo’s mother.
The final move to make sure her point was made was slapping Cassandra across the face. In that moment Angus nearly snapped. He stepped forward and got right up in Chiyo’s face ready to let her have it.
”How dare you you cold hearted cu-” Angus stopped mid curse not for fear of what repercussions would come for finishing that sentence, but because as he yelled Chiyo backed up grabbing the side of her head. It almost looked like she was in physical pain.
Angus quickly moved away not wanting anyone to think he had anything to do with Chiyo’s current head pain. About the same time a girl with platinum hair came up and took full responsibility for what had happened. At first it seemed Chiyo was still looking to fight as she started screaming about the mention of Yoshin; but the pain seemed to force her to finally stand down. The situation was finally over.
Chiyou ordered the Eris and Cassandra to follow her while her bodyguard nodded to Itsuko telling her to go. Angus gave one last glare at Chiyo before turning his attention to Itsuko still in pain from the punch,
”Here, let me help you.” Angus put his arm around the girl and held both her shoulders helping her keep balance as she walked. Before they started walking though, Angus looked over his shoulder at Cassandra,
”You don’t have to listen to her you know?”@KoL@TheWindel@Caits
