Aurora's fury ebbed into Aria but Aria grabbed her safety net to keep from being pulled into it. Lucas was asleep in the next room, there was little else to focus on other than her inner-self and even the emptiness of the bubble was little comfort when Aurora embraced her power.
Aria stepped down off of the stool and backed away from Aurora. She never took her eyes from the woman and backed towards where her gun hung by the door. Aria hated godlings for this one fact alone, short of knowing that Aurora could do something there was little she could do about it.
Aria turned to see Lucas open her bedroom door just as Aurora let lost a blast of air that flung Aria into the coat rack behind her. The wind slipped from Aria's lungs in a gush of air as she smashed into the drywall and left a crater in the newly painted wall. Nox was going to be pissed.
Aria could barely see anything, her sword had clattered to the floor with her belt and her gun. The dagger had slid halfway across the room behind her. Aria grabbed the gun and pulled it from from its holster and threw the safety. Aurora stalked towards her. She yelled things that Aria was barely able to comprehend, her ears rang from the crash into the wall. Aurora was tired of her, tired of something, things Aria had no control over.
She blathered on about stealing Nox. Aria tried to think, tried to get a handle on what was going on. Aria only barely remembered Lucas had come out of the room. She spoke softly to Lucas, she knew Aurora could hear. "Please, Lucas, go back inside the room. I can't let you get hurt. If you get hurt, Aurora won't survive my anger."
Aria stood up just as Aurora got her face and wrapped Aria up in a weave of air around her neck and hung her three feet off the ground. Aria had two choices, lose consciousness due to lack of oxygen, or shoot. Aria held the gun close to Aurora's ear and fired into the floor behind the other woman. And then everything went black...
