Zeus was now chasing Tessa around the room, her screeching whenever he got close and darting behind furniture to put space between the two.

He snorted, stepping back so he doesn't get sucked into the fray.

Zeus managed to grab Tessa, wrapping an arm around her before pulling her into a headlock. She struggled but was no match for her brother. He snickered when she tried hitting him.

They're getting a little rough, he thought to himself, frowning slightly.

"You… massive dick!" Tessa growled, stuck. Zeus just snickered some more.

Maybe I'm just being paranoid. It seems like a normal thing for them.

Tess increased her core temperature. Zeus could tolerate heat, but for only so long. He frowned when he realized what she was doing, but still held on as she continued to struggle. Her skin began to steam.

He scratched his face. Should I hop in?

Zeus recoiled, giving Tess the advantage once again. She jumped on him, swinging around and wrapping her legs around his neck, then leaning back. The two hit the floor with a thump. Zeus squirmed out of her grasp and went to tackle her. She grinned and darted out of the way.

Yeah, she's fine. He took a few more steps back, rubbing his chin.

Tess saw Runner and her eyes gleamed with an idea.

He shook his head. I don't like where this is going.

She smirked and ran towards Runner, grabbing him and swinging around so she was behind him. "You can't hit innocents!" she taunted Zeus. He stopped his pursuit, though he eyed Tessa from where she hid behind Runner.

He groaned, rubbing his face. Well, shit.

Zeus smirked as well, then his skin started to crack.
Tessa cursed herself. "Shit! I forgot he could do that!" she hissed.

He tilted his head. "Tess, how fast is he?"

"It doesn't matter! He's a mountain dragon! They can turn themselves into stone and go wherever the hell they please!"

"I think I'm fast enough."

"Fuck it." Tess ran, hopping up the stairs as fast as she could. Zeus's skin went back to normal as he ran after her.

He shrugged, deciding to stay downstairs and not get maimed by either one of the two.

About a minute later, Tess screeched and Zeus laughed. He came down the stairs, looking accomplished, with a grumpy Tessa slung over his shoulder. She sighed and muttered, "I give up."

He raised his eyebrows in surprise

Zeus tossed Tessa on the couch, making her yelp. "Here." He said. She scowled at Zeus.

"Uh…you sure you wanna be sitting on the couch?"

She shrugged and acted like it was her plan all along. "I still gotta scrub off my blood on the roof too"

(Omfg, I hate gym class so much!!)

"I feel like there's a difference between lying in your own dried blood than someone else's."

She picked at her nails. "Try being covered in multiple someone elses' blood."

"That's my point. It doesn't seem like a pleasant experience<" he said, tilting his head.

She shrugged again. "The unfortunate result of war–you get used to it."

He rolled his eyes, a joking smile on his face. "No way you'd let me go fight in a war. You won't even let me work."
