         the songbird has miscalculated his step and is now ROLLING down a very steep hill -- earth was so unpredictable . he lands at the bottom with a THUD -- letting out a small groan from pink lips . had he mentioned that he absolutely HATED earth ?? he tries to STAND but there’s a SHARP pain in his left leg -- was it broken ?? he wasn’t sure . 

   he cups his hands around his mouth . “ hello ?? is there anyone up there ?? “ the songbird was hopeful someone would HEAR him calling . “ my leg -- it’s wounded !! “

   “If I could, they’d all have died long ago.” Ezhno says as the small amount of joy left his features. “But it’s what I was born for, made to do. It’s my lot in life and I have nothing else if not my duty.” Emerald eyes look the sulking man over. A flick of an ebony ear shooing away a fly.

   “Let me share a little bit of wisdom.” The beast says shifting his weight in his forelegs. “Jealousy is a dangerous weapon.” He begins, his voice level and smooth. “But so is bitterness and anger. Too much and you’ll be blinded and vengeful. Then you, will be my quarry. And trust me, even the gods tremble before my fangs.” The threat is soft but there. A warning for Zephyr. “My name is Ezhno. The last of my kind.”

   “ a threat ?? “ the songbird laughs -- finding it comical that this beast thought he could THREATEN him ?? “ do you honestly think i would fear YOU when i have danced with GODS ?? very funny . “ he lays back on his hands -- glancing up at the other . “ though , i find it funny , i mean no disrespect . i have NO intention of letting my bitterness or anger be a driving force . i am merely here to live out my sentence . senseless death does not excite me.”

    “ ezhno -- i find it a pleasure that we’ve met . perhaps , we can learn to co-exist . “ he holds out a hand -- one meaning to TOUCH if allowed . “ perhaps , us beasts can learn to understand one another . “ loneliness was something the songbird felt DEEPLY .

      it was one of those days where the songbird ventured away from the beach he was staying at -- wanting to see the world . he was desperately TRYING to see what was so GOOD about earth -- but he couldn’t find a damned thing . humans were so stupid -- honestly . though , he was making his way down town when he was BUMPED into .

the sudden jar caused flowers to FALL from his white-blonde hair . how DARE !! the songbird sneers, reaching up to FEEL the damage done to his intricate updo . “ can’t you watch where you’re going ?? do you know how LONG this took me ?? “

   “Ah, the great god king’s wife.” A harsh chuckle leaves the beast, revealing large fangs and sharp carnassial’s. “So, did you gain his favor being his messenger boy? His singing pet?” Another growling laugh. 

   “Fallen from grace because the strongest god can’t keep his dick in his pants. What a shame.” Emerald eyes looked back at Zephyr. “I can say these things because they are not my gods. They gain no power from me. Even when I fight to protect their worshipers.” A soft hum leaves the great wolf. “What’s your name, lost one?”

          white hot ANGER swells within the pits of the songbird’s stomach .  it would seem that this BEAST thought just as hera had . “ i sang for all the gods but zeus found himself greedy . “ he spats , rolling baby blue eyes that would soon NARROW . “ i am a songbird . “

   “ i did not sleep with zeus . in fact -- i had no sexual relation with that god king at all . hera was simply jealous because i outshone in her beauty . a petty woman’s jealousy . “ yes, if hera was going to act that way she did -- then she would be called WOMAN . 

    “ you shouldn’t . let zeus’ precious ones die in flames for all i care . humans are worthless beings -- why he loves them is beyond me . “ BITTERNESS was just as ugly as JEALOUSY , was it not ?? “ i was given the name ZEPHYR -- “ there’s a pause . “ yours ?? “

𝙵𝙸𝙽𝙶𝙴𝚁    𝙲𝙾𝚅𝙴𝚁    𝙷𝙴𝚁    rosebud    lips    as    she    silently    trembles    with    laughter     ;     starlight    eyes    sparkling    with    tears     .     she    didn’t    mean    to    laugh     ———     truly     ;     she    had    once    been    as    clumsy    as    a    newborn    fawn    during    her    first    days    above    the    waves     ,     so    she    had    no    place    to    be    laughing    at    the    songbird’s    clumsiness     .     but    she    couldn’t    help    it     ———     it    had    just    been    so  comical     ! 

        it would seem that the other wasn’t going to STOP anytime soon . in all honesty , he was sad that he could not hear her actual laugh -- he was sure that it would be BEAUTIFUL but he wouldn’t bring that up right now . no, it would only dampen the mood . “ yeah, yeah, yeah . “ He mumbles , trying to brush off his clothes from the slip . “ laugh it up , tuna . “

   “A blessed man abandoned by the gods.” Ezhno said as his piercing gaze fixated on the pale man. He’s met similar men and women in his life. All of whom having different stories to tell and reasons for their current state. Most of which unpleasant and with malicious intent. The guardian doubted such a case with this man.

   The beasts enormous head raised slightly, the sun shining on his face, enluminating the hundreds of scar decorating his long features. The most eye catching being the jagged one over his right eye. “Who did you piss off?” The wolf lowers himself into a sit, his large bushy tail curling around his monstrous feet and ebony claws.

          “ i was not abandoned -- i was thrown from the heavens . “ could the other tell that the the songbird was BITTER ?? “ i did not a thing to deserve the treatment i was given . “ 

     baby blue eyes watch as the other sits down -- zephyr decides that it would be okay for him to sit as well . eyes move around the other’s features -- there were SCARS just about everywhere . were they a warrior ?? would ARES bless them ?? the songbird could only WONDER . “ -- i found myself within the gaze of hera’s wrath . “ there’s a pause. “ zeus’ wife . “

   The large beast calmly looked at the quivering man before him. If one could call the male that. So small and fragile looking. Ezhno wondered if a breeze could knock the man down. 

   The shifter gazed at the man. What could he say? Zephyr was gorgeous. A soft exhale left the beasts nostrils as he raised his head, stern emerald eyes looking the man over. “Count yourself lucky you found me and not my quarry.” Normally Ezhno would have to use magic to speak to a mortal, even a magically gifted one like a witch. But this was nor normal mortal.

   Though his voice was strong and booming, demanding respect like that of the god Zephyr sang for, it was also soft, comforting and honeyed. A practiced patience in his warrior tone. ‘Where did you come from?” The great beast asked calmly as he approached slowly, a slight tilt of his head.

       zephyr might APPEAR weak but he was NOTHING of the sort . after all he was too a BEAST of the HEAVENS . though after being banished to earth -- his body had undergone CHANGES that were less than flattering . here on earth he was SMALL && INSIGNIFICANT.

    the songbird did have THAT going for him -- he was BEAUTIFUL , something he hadn’t LOST with his FALL from the heavens . zephyr flinches as the other speaks but after a moment finds himself loosening up . did this BEAST mean no HARM ?? he was HOPEFUL .

    “ i will consider myself lucky then .  “ his voice was smooth && dressed in SILK . just like the APPEARANCE he wore -- his voice was just as INTOXICATING . the bird did not step back this time -- instead he lets the other approach . “ the heavens . “

          baby blue eyes are WIDE in horror . the songbird did not know that earth inhabited something so LARGE . something like this must have come from the heavens . the songbird found himself in SHOCK && unable to move . this was not something that earth could have PRODUCED -- could it ?? had this beast been banished here TOO ?? 

    words were DEAD on the songbird’s lips -- mouth agape && breathing ragged . the songbird started to BACK away slowly -- trying not to make any sudden movements . “ no harm -- “ were the only words he could MUSTER . “ -- i am . . . lost . “

       embarrassment hit the songbird like a TRUCK . “ it isn’t THAT funny !! “ he mumbles from under his hand -- . “ i didn’t even see that rock -- “ had he tripped , fallen and is now covered in his iced coffee ?? yes. “ i swear i wasn’t this clumsy in the heavens . “

      banishment did not come EASY . it was the hardest thing to have ever happened to the songbird . his heart -- it was BROKEN . everything had been taken from him -- everything he loved just RIPPED straight out from under his nose . that goddess -- that goddess -- she didn’t HAVE to do this . jealousy was not fitting of the goddess but she hadn’t CARED .

she threw him from the heavens without so much of a BLINK . the songbird was angry . he was hurt . he was -- BITTER . goddesses were known to be RUTHLESS but this ?? he wished it weren’t so . tears streamed down the bird’s face as he tried his best to free himself. 

earth was so -- UNFORGIVING . had he not been punished enough ?? why was this happening to him ?? if being LOVED by zeus brought this ?? then he would have rather been HATED . he was growing tired -- WEAK from pulling himself through MUD . was this it ??

      he was OUT of strength .

      the songbird was still learning how earth worked --  it was actually very difficult for him. in the heavens -- he was handed EVERYTHING. here ??  not so much. no one fawned over how beautiful he was -- no one even seemed to notice !! it was an OUTRAGE. zephyr’s tiny hands were placed against the front window of a bakery. it really did smell SO good !!

       he turns and sets his eyes on the CLOSEST person. target caught !! the songbird removes his left hand from the glass and POINTS. “ you there !! buy me something !! “
