I kept my hope just like I hoped to // Will/Koko

[Warlight]

There were very few thoughts her quietest brother could voice that she would consider a bad idea. "Let's do it," she agrees in an eager whisper, "who knows what will be swimming in the lake at this time of the night."

There is a disruption behind them and Will turns to see Sviko is joining them. Silently she bobs her head in satisfaction, their trio was complete. 

Somehow their mothers and older siblings remain sleeping peacefully, and they have gathered outside. Free at last she is ready to run, but  Koko obnoxiously blows his morning breath in her face. Quick as a viper she aims to give him a well-placed nip to the sensitive skin around his smug muzzle.
And he better not yelp, or else another would be quick to follow. 

Highly competitive and rightfully The Best at everything as the Older Sister, Warlight took everything her brothers did as a challenge. And as they charge off down the mountain she is close on their heels, looking for a way to dash ahead. She is far too awake to teleport herself to their destination so she grits her teeth and gallops as hard as she can under the full moon. 

Her lucky break comes as Koko chooses a trail she knows well, well enough to know it's not the shortest route to the water. It may be the clearest path  (and the safest in the dark) but she wasn't about to lose a race to both little brothers. 

The blood-and-bone girl peels off onto a lesser-known deer trail, savoring the thrill of danger and the spike in adrenaline as a branch whips across her face. With a trickle of blood down running down her cheek and her breath ragged she hits the silver lake in an explosion of water. 

First.

Smug as could be and more than a little disheveled, she turns to face her brothers.

Soul as sweet as blood red jam
