Freedom (Uxie)
The sun rose.
Bryna was filled with excitement. She couldn't sleep in. She just had to get out of bed and start on breakfast. But even after it had been made and finished, she still felt the excitement bubbling within her.
Neither Wolf nor Alex had risen from bed though they'd both gone early to their rooms after the heartbreaking conversation in the kitchen.
Bryna was losing her patience. She wanted to burst into Wolf's room and show him what they'd acquired for him. "I can't take it anymore," she confessed to Nel. "I know it's early but I'm going in there."

"No, I was literally just thinking that. Let's do it!" Nel said excitedly. She'd learned to knock before entering because of awkwardness and nakedness. No sex. But naked Wolf. So she knocked and then burst in. "Dad!"
"Huhwhat?" Wolf said as he sat upright in the bed immediately, his legs moving up with his as he bolted so quickly. "Wassup?" He asked, opening one eye to look at the girls.

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Bryna had been a little nervous. She thought that the boys slept naked. But at this point she was just too excited to even care if he was covered. "We got you a present!" she exclaimed with a girlish squeal as her excitement refused to be contained. She clasped the relic in her hands tightly as she held it out for him to see.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Wolf half looked at it, but he was hungover and she was squealing so he didn't get it. "Can we keep the volume down so my head doesn't explode?" he was covered, he had jogging pants on.
Nel laughed then, "he's hungover!" she exclaimed and when wolf winced she laughed again.
"Coffee and toast? Then might see what that thing is in your hands, Bryna."

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"Hungover?' Bryna asked with pure disappointment showing all over her face. "Oh Wolf." Of course he was Hungover. She slumped her shoulders a little and lowered the relic. "I'll go get the coffee and leftover bread rolls." She put the relic back in its bag and went into the kitchen, got a mug full of coffee and the basket of rolls and then returned to his room.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"You're not my mum," Wolf grumbled, he was so not having that disappointment put his way. No. He thanked her for the coffee though, rubbed his face and sipped.
"We are just going to wait here because you know. We are excited for your reaction to the gift." Nel said.
"What is it?" Wolf said, he looked immediately better once he'd had a few sips of coffee. His colour returned to his face and his eyes opened. "I can see now."

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Bryna pulled it out of her bag again and held it out to him. "It's a little something for you that we charmed Braxton into loaning us," Bryna said. "As a thank you for everything you've done for us."
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Wolf could see it was a very dark relic. Pretty. "Oh it's lovely," he said and took it. Holding it in his hands didn't tell him what it did though.
"It unlocks Alex's seal." Nel said, because he wasn't getting it. "If he leaves, I'm sorry I am. But we thought this way, he'd have no excuses..."
Wolf went silent, it was both a blessing and a curse that they'd put in his hands. "oh, girls." He said and got out of bed to hug them tightly. "Thank you so much."

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Bryna hugged wolf back tightly. "You're so welcome. We know there's a chance he'll leave but I think that yesterday, even as awkward as it was, proves that he feels for you. And if that really is the case, I think he'll come back. I don't think he'll be able to help it. But either way, because you love him, you have to set him free. So we wanted you to be able to have that choice over anyone else."
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Wolf knew that what she said was true but he didn't answer her. Not at first. He couldn't.
"If you love something, set it free. If it loves you, it'll come back." Nel said quietly.
"I'm scared." Wolf admitted, his voice wrought with pain. "but I'm me. I don't let fear consume me. So I'll go do it. Now." He said and kissed their cheeks. "You're the best, did you know that? How did I get so damn lucky?"

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"It's a great mystery," Bryna said with a laugh. She really felt for him. But she truly believed that in setting Alex free, he would win. She really thought that Alex would go but that he would come back and that's when Wolf could snatch him up.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"I'll figure out the mystery later. Now I've got a damsel to rescue." Wolf said and he was going to do it shirtless and his pj's.
"Good luck, "Nel said cheerfully. But instead she was already hating Alex. Ready for the disappointment he'd bring her for sure. Like all other men in her life.
Wolf nodded and then went to Alex's room and knocked. "stop being lazy. You sleep all the time."

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Bryna took Nel's hand. "It's gonna be okay. He'll be like the genie from Aladdin. Super happy to be free but too in love with his friends to stay away long. You'll see."
Alex groaned. He'd not had restful sleep at all. It might have been morning but he was not so excited to face the day or wolf after what had happened between them. After what he'd dreamed either.
He buried his head in his pillow and groaned again. But he couldn't avoid the day forever so he got up and opened the door for Wolf. "I can't help it," he said. His weak body required a lot of sleep. "Good morning?" Wolf at least was still in his pajamas. He smelled of alcohol.

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"Whatever." Nel said, she very rarely lashed out verbally at Bryna. It meant she was under a lot of stress and pain. "I got homework. So I'll talk to you later." she said and went off to shut herself in her room.
"I dunno, you tell me." Wolf said and he held out the relic to Alex. "You need this don't you?" He said quietly. "You won't need me any more, you won't have to talk any more. You won't have to deal with my feelings. You won't have any of those problems any more. You'll be free."

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Bryna told herself not to take it personally but it hurt all the same. She swallowed hard and retreated to her room. But after sitting on her bed for so long, she got to work on a project.
Alex knew right away what the relic was that Wolf was holding. His eyes widened in shock. He didn't reach out and take it though. He just looked up at wolf's face to study his expression. His words hurt. "You make me sound so heartless," he said quietly.
Looking at Wolf was hard. He could see the pain in his eyes. Pain he was causing. And after last night it was difficult to look at his face and not have a rush of memories of the dreams and feelings that came with them. His cheeks blushed red as cherries and he had to look away, taking a step back. He didn't know what to do. He wanted to be free, needed it, and yet he felt so...wrong.

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"Well, I just... No. That's not how I meant it. It was...thoughts. Coming out. How I feel. I guess. I don't know?" Wolf said when Alex backed away he stepped closer. "Take it. Alex... You have too. I can't do this any more. If anything changes when you're free, then great. But if it doesn't at least I'll know. I can get over it. And if you're not going to stay, then it's best you go. Not for me. For Nel. She's had too many men disappoint her in her life. You know? So I'd rather band-aid it. Rip it off fast so it hurts less."
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Alex didn't like having such things put on him like that. He was supposed to be overjoyed that what Heatran had cruelly had done to him was finally going to be undone. He would be himself, no longer helpless and dependent on others to protect him but strong, powerful and able to provide proper aide again.
But instead he was feeling a mix of emotions. He still didn't take the relic. They had to sort things out before the change because he wasn't sure how he'd feel after, weak or normal.
"If I am free...but I choose to remain with you all...would I be able to leave at all?" Alex asked carefully inside. "I want to see my brothers. I want to visit my lake and be able to give my blessing to those who need it like I did before. And I can't do that here. But I don't want to leave this place and never get to see you again either..."

Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Wolf literally looked at Alex then, like he'd been slapped. "No, you'd obviously be a prisoner. Because that's the kind of person I am." he said, he shoved the relic at Alex then. "Take it."
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"Wolf!" Alex gasped in panic as he looked at him with wide eyes, the last time he'd get to physically look at the man. He could say nothing more than that. The relic activated the moment it touched him. A pain he'd only experienced once during the dark ritual that had bound him shot through his body. He screamed in agony as the bonds were shattered, falling quiet as his human body disappeared, twisting into a ball of pure light. It crackled like electricity, white and hot, and slowly began to take the form of the tiny pixie. The change finalized with one last burst of psychic energy and the little pixie dropped to the floor along with the relic that had triggered the change.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Wolf stood there staring. "... I didn't think it would be so dramatic." he said apologetically to Alex. Like he knew that stuff.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Dark fae magic tended to be pretty damn dramatic because why not? Alex had known. He hadn't had a chance to warn Wolf. It was too late now. He just lay on the floor and whimpered, his body vibrating from the leftover pain of the change.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"Do you need something?" Wolf asked, he wasn't good at understanding whimpers. He was trying though.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Alex very much did not want to be on the floor anymore. He lifted up his rather large head. "I don't know..." He wasn't so certain on his powers. He tried levitating and promptly crashed.
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
Wolf picked up Alex then. He was... Well, he wasn't the prettiest fiend that he'd ever seen. But he didn't expect Uxie to look like a sylveon. "water? Comfortable bed?"
Re: Freedom (Uxie)
"Both?" Alex asked weakly. He was not massively cute like most fae fiends were. He knew that. But he was cute in his own way. And so little.
