Vilkas leaped to the side getting out of the way from the charging bear. "Watch out!" Farkas yelled as the bear quickly jumped towards Vilkas again. Vilkas quickly grabbed his sword but the bear landed right on top of him knocking he sword out of his hand. "Dammit!" He yelled trying to punch the bear off of him but it wasn't working. "I thought there was only going to be one!" Farkas yelled as he was fighting off another bear.
The farmer and his family stood in their home watching and hoping that they would be okay. "Ah!" Farkas yelled quickly dodging the bears swinging claw and than spun around stabbing his sword into the side of the bear. "Farkas!" Vilkas yelled in a panic as the bear was getting closer to tearing his face off. Farkas quickly came running and once he was close enough he stabbed his sword right into the bear.
The bear roared in pain and than fell over bleeding out and eventually dying. Vilkas laid flat on the ground breathing heavily, his arm was cut up from holding the bear's claw off. "You okay?" Farkas asked who was also out of breath. "Yea, I'm fine." Vilkas said slowly getting up. He looked at his arm seeing it wasn't as bad as he thought it was. "We need to wrap it up." Farkas said looking at it. "Yea but it's not as bad as it could've been." Vilkas said getting up off of the ground.
Vilkas groaned in pain as he rubbed his sore back from getting knocked to the ground. "Thank you so much!" The farmer said as he came running to them. "Are you two alright?" The wife of the farmer asked as she looked at them worried. "We're fine, though it would of been helpful if we knew there was going to be two of them." Farkas said as he got out some bandages from his pack.
The farmer and his wife exchanged sorry looks. "There was only one at first but than before you got here another one showed up!" The farmer explained as he felt bad. "That's okay, the important thing is is that non of you got hurt." Vilkas said giving them a smile. They smiled back in relief at him, Farkas finished wrapping Vilkas's arm up and grabbed his sword giving it back to him. "You sure you don't want us to take these away?" Vilkas asked looking at the bears. "No, no we can use them!" The farmer said in a cheerful voice.
They gave them their pay and waved goodbye as the brothers walked down the road back to Whiterun. "I though you said that it was just outside of Whiterun?" Vilkas said looking at Farkas realizing how far out they were. "Well it is, just not close to Whiterun.." Farkas said rubbing the back of his neck. They both looked up at the sky seeing it was now getting to be early evening. "We should be able to get back before late evening though." Farkas said looking back to his brother. Vilkas nodded and just kept walking as he looked at his bandaged arm.
June had just finished another small job that Aela gave to her this time. "Good work, you know you're getting good at this." Aela said with a smile. June just looked away from her. "Am I done now?" June asked. "Yea.." Aela said watching June carefully. June had been acting different today, she was quick about the jobs she was given and she stayed away from everyone. June started to walk back towards the stairs but she was stopped by someone quickly grabbing her arm, it was Njada.
June quickly glared at her. "What do you want?" June asked yanking her arm away. "I want you to stay away from Vilkas! He doesn't like you!" Njada shouted in anger and jealously. June raised an eyebrow at her, normally she would of insulted Njada but she just looked away from her. "Don't worry, now is that it?" June said slightly glaring at her again. Njada looked at her a big surprised that she hadn't argued back, she opened her mouth about to shout some more but June just walked away from her again towards the stairs.
Njada watched her walk away for a moment and than she walked back to the table mumbling under her breath. June walked down the stairs and into the quarters, Jorrvaskr was pretty much empty today. Everyone was busy with their own jobs, the only ones that were there had either already finished up their jobs or were the ones giving the jobs. 'Tonight would be best...' June thought to herself as she stood in front of the bed she usually slept on.
She had her things packed up in her bag, she stood there for a moment as Vilkas quickly flashed into her mind again. She frowned and forced the image of him away, she slowly grabbed her hood putting down over her face. She grabbed her bow and arrows placing them on her back and she grabbed her bag throwing it over her shoulder. 'Now would be best while everyone's out...' She thought to herself. No matter what she did June couldn't stop her heart from aching, she couldn't stop her stomach from hurting. All she could do was ignore it, and even that was difficult.
She peeked out of the room seeing that no one was around, she knew that it was growing dark outside and darkness was an advantage for her. She quickly left the room and headed to the stairs but quickly stopped as she saw someone in the corner of her eye. She slowly looked to the side seeing it was Kodlak. June's heart ache increased more as she could feel his piercing eyes on her. "Going somewhere?" He asked slowly walking up to her.
June gulped and just stood there, she was trying to think of something to say but nothing was coming to her mind. "You're leaving aren't you?" He asked making June's stomach only hurt even more. June slowly turned towards him to look at him, he had his normal smile on his face. She was surprised to see it, she slowly nodded to his question. "You don't have to you know.." Kodlak said keeping his smile on his face. "It's time that I do.." June said quietly.
Kodlak tilted his head at her in question. "I don't...I don't belong here..This place isn't for me.." June slowly explained as she turned back away towards the door. "It could be." Kodlak spoke keeping his smile on his face. June winced a little at his words, she bit her lower lip as she just stood there looking down at the ground. Her hood was hiding her eyes, they stood there in silence for a moment as June was struggling to find anything to say. "But if you wish to leave, I will not stop you." Kodlak finally broke the silence.
June kept her eyes away from him as she gripped her bag tightly. "I'm sorry.." She whispered as she quickly walked up the stairs and into the main room. Barely anyone was in there and the one's who were in there were just sitting at the table eating. They had no idea that she had entered the room, June slowly slipped into the shadows and went to the front door leaving Jorrvaskr.
Vilkas was looking up at the evening sky, it was going from the normal orange from when the sun set to a dark blue. "There's Whiterun." Farkas said pointing out the tall buildings in the distance. Vilkas looked a head seeing they were getting closer, he let out a soft sigh as he looked around. "You okay?" Farkas asked looking at his brother. "I'm fine." Vilkas said watching a few rabbits hop along the road.
Farkas raised an eyebrow at Vilkas. "You sure? You've been pretty quiet since we left the farm.." Farkas said slightly looking away from him. Vilkas came to a stop and looked at the ground, he had a troubled look on his face. Farkas stopped and looked back at him. "Something's definitely on your mind...What is it?" Farkas asked taking a few steps towards Vilkas. Vilkas rubbed the back of his neck as he tried to find the right words to say, trying to find a simple way to explain it.
Farkas crossed his arms and waited patiently as Vilkas sorted out his thoughts. "It's..." Vilkas began to speak but stopped. "Is it June?" Farkas said plainly. Vilkas quickly looked up at him. "Why do you think it's about June?" Vilkas asked a little defensive. "Because she's been on your mind since she broke into Jorrvaskr." Farkas said with a smile. "I can tell that you have feelings for her.." He said examining his brothers reaction.
Vilkas was about to object but he just let out a deep sigh and looked down. "Yea, I do." He admitted. Farkas looked at him a little surprised. "Wasn't expecting you to admit it so easily." He said with a bigger smile. "Well there's no point in denying it anymore.." Vilkas said quietly as he kept his eyes to the ground. "So why don't you tell her?" Farkas asked raising an eyebrow at Vilkas.
Vilkas quickly looked to the side as he rubbed the back of his neck again. "Well.." Vilkas said having a difficult time to say the right words again. "Because I don't think she feels the same way.." Vilkas spoke slowly. "Why do you think that?" Farkas asked slightly tilting his head. "Because we're two different people..I'm a warrior, I'm a proud companions and she's...Just a thief." Vilkas spoke with his eyebrows furrowed down. "People can change." Farkas said with a straight face.
Vilkas looked up at him a little surprised. "She may be a thief now but maybe tomorrow she will be yours." Farkas said with his smile returning. "She could be a companion, it's obvious that Kodlak likes her.." Farkas said with a small shrug. Vilkas looked back down furrowing his eyebrows back down. 'Why haven't I thought of it like that?' He wondered as he began to feel like a fool. "You're right.." Vilkas mumbled. "Really?" Farkas said surprised. He wasn't used to being right or anybody taking his advice.
Vilkas quickly looked up with confidence in his eyes. "Come on, let's hurry and get back to Jorrvaskr!" Vilkas said with what almost sounded like excitement in his voice. He quickly walked off almost jogging down the road, Farkas smiled and quickly ran off to catch up to his brother.
Thirty minutes passed and they finally reached Whiterun, Vilkas stopped after he entered the city to catch his breath. He ran the hole way, he just couldn't wait. Vilkas quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead and started running down the road. The sky was dark and full of stars, the moon was rising in the sky. He ran through the Market place and up the steps towards Jorrvaskr, he ran around the building and saw a few companions sitting outside.
Njada stood up to try and talk to him but he ran past her completely ignoring her and running inside. He looked around seeing if June was in the main room but she wasn't, he saw Aela sitting at the table with Skjor. Vilkas was still slightly breathing hard, he stood there for a moment catching his breath again and than he walked up to Aela. "Have you seen June?" He asked her. "No not in a while, she's probably still downstairs." Aela said gesturing her head towards the stairs.
Vilkas nodded and turned going towards the stairs, he quickly walked down them and into the hall. He walked into the quarters and frowned seeing it was empty, he furrowed his eyebrows down as he walked out of the room. 'Where could she be?' He wondered looking around in the hall not seeing her anywhere. 'Maybe she's with Kodlak..' He thought to himself as he walked down the hall towards Kodlak's room.
When Vilkas walked into Kodlak's room he saw him examining a map on his table. "What can I do for you?" Kodlak asked sensing Vilkas entering his room. Before answering Vilkas quickly looking around for June and she wasn't in there either. "Do you know where June is?" Vilkas asked looking back at Kodlak. "She's gone." Kodlak said standing up straight and looking at Vilkas.
Vilkas slightly tilted his head and furrowed his eyebrows down confused. "Is she..Doing a job?" Vilkas slowly asked him. "No, she's gone, she went back to Riften." Kodlak explained sitting back down in his chair. Vilkas's eyes widened and his jaw slightly dropped, he just stood there for a moment just staring at him. "You...Didn't stop her?" Vilkas slowly asked. "Of course not, why would I?" Kodlak asked grabbing some mead and pouring it into a mug.
A frown slowly appeared on Vilkas's face, in that moment he felt his heart slowly sink and a lump rise up in his throat. "She had finished work for us a long time ago, she could of left when ever she wanted." Kodlak explained. "Why.." Vilkas began to speak but he had to swallow down the lump in his throat. "Why would she go back?" Vilkas asked quietly. "Because it's where she belongs, it was only a matter of time.." Kodlak said in a disappointed voice.
Vilkas just stood there staring at Kodlak, the aching pain he was feeling quickly turned into anger. Vilkas slowly began to glare as he clenched his fists tightly. "Sorry Vilkas, sometimes people don't change.." Kodlak said noticing the look on Vilkas's face. Kodlak felt a little upset as well, but he had a feeling it wouldn't be the last they see of June.
A fire started to grow in Vilkas's belly. "We need to go get her and drag her back she-!" He began to yell but Kodlak quickly raised his hand up in the air making Vilkas be quiet. "No, I already told you that her work was done. Like I said Vilkas, sometimes people don't change." Kodlak said grabbing his journal and opening it.
Vilkas quickly walked out of his Kodlak's room, storming down the hall. 'How could she just leave!? After everything..' Vilkas thought to himself in anger. He frowned as images of last night popped into his mind, they were close together. The way they kissed felt like it meant something. Vilkas quickly forced the images out of his mind, they were only making him more upset.
He quickly walked up the stairs and almost ran into Farkas. "Woah!" Farkas said quickly taking a step back keeping himself from running into Vilkas. Farkas furrowed his eyebrows down at Vilkas noticing the look on his face. "What's the matter?" Farkas asked examining his brother. Vilkas quickly looked away with an angry look on his face. "June's no longer here." He said.
Farkas looked at him confused. "What do you mean she's gone?" He asked. "I mean gone, she went back to Riften! I was a fool to think she could be anything different, I was a fool to think we could be together." Vilkas said with a frown on his face. He just sighed and shook his head walking past Farkas towards the table. "I need a drink..." Vilkas mumbled.
Farkas watched him and than looked down at the ground trying to think, he quickly looked up hearing one of the doors open. He saw it was Njada. 'Oh great..' He thought to himself as he watched her walked over to the table and take a seat next to Vilkas. Vilkas had piled food onto his plate and was already gulping down mead. Njada knew that June had left, she saw her slip out but she didn't say anything.
It was the perfect time for Njada to be with Vilkas, he was upset and angry. Also he was drinking and she knew that was as good a time as any. "Sorry about June." Njada lied. She wasn't sorry, she hated June. Njada had known Vilkas way longer than June did and once she showed up he was immediately all over her, and that pissed off Njada. She knew she was better for Vilkas, she just had to show him that.
Vilkas sneered at Njada and just looked away from her. "Whatever." He mumbled gulping down some more mead. "Here, let me help." Njada said with a small grin as she grabbed some more bottles of mead and poured him another cup. Farkas sighed as he watched Njada. 'Hopefully Vilkas won't do anything stupid..' He thought to himself as he walked down the stairs.
A few hours have passed since June left, she was walking down the road, her eyes looking down at the ground. She was almost half way to Ivarstead, June couldn't get Vilkas out of her mind. No matter how hard she tried she couldn't shake the thoughts away. She sighed as she stopped walking and just stared at the ground. She felt like she wasn't doing the right thing but she also felt like she didn't belong there. She didn't belong with Vilkas.
June felt like he deserved someone better than her, someone who was sure about their feelings. She frowned as her heart began to ache like she was missing him already, her stomach heart. 'Why do I feel this way?' She thought to herself with a bigger frown. She blinked as she suddenly realized something. 'Why am I going back? What exactly is there for me?' She wondered slowly looking up. 'Is there anything for me at Jorrvaskr?' She wondered again as she slowly turned around looking behind her.
A smile slowly appeared on her face. 'Vilkas.' She quickly realized and started to run off. She knew how she felt now, she knew where she wanted to be. She wanted to be with Vilkas, she belonged with him. She belonged in his arms, her heart leaped and her butterflies returned. 'I can't wait to get back..' She thought to herself as she kept running.
A few more hours have passed and it was now late at night, the moon was high in the sky. Farkas was now upstairs sitting at the table having a few drinks with Ria and the others. He sighed deeply as he thought of his brother. 'You're making a huge mistake..' He thought to himself. He looked up hearing the door suddenly slam open, his eyes widened as he saw it was June.
She was out of breath and quickly looking around, she smiled once she saw Farkas. "Farkas! Where's Vilkas?" She asked with a big smile. "D-downstairs but-" June quickly cut him off. "Thanks!" She said running towards the stairs and down them. "Wait!" He tried to stop her but she was already downstairs. 'Dammit..' He thought to himself as his gut twisted.
June stopped at the bottom of the steps taking a deep breath, she was still out of breath from running so much but she quickly got over it and started to quickly walk down the hall way. She couldn't stop smiling as she kept thinking about Vilkas and finally admitting her feelings for him. She turned towards his room and stopped at his door, she suddenly felt nervous. Her stomach fluttered like crazy and she took in a deep breath and quickly opened the door.
She quickly walked in almost in a leap. "Vilkas!" She yelled in excitement with a big smile. But that smile quickly faded and her heart quickly broke at what she had jumped in on. Vilkas quickly turned around hearing his name and froze seeing June standing in his room. June looked down at Vilkas's bed seeing Njada was naked and bent over and Vilkas was ramming right into her when June came in.
June felt like she was going to be sick, she felt like her heart had broken into a hundred pieces. She quickly turned and ran out of his room. "June!" Vilkas called to her as he pulled away from Njada and quickly grabbed his pants. June heard him call her but she didn't care, she just kept running. She ran up the stairs and into the main room. "Wait!" Farkas yelled seeing June run up the stairs, he tried to stop her.
June quickly pushed him out of the way and ran out of the building. 'I can't believe it.' She thought to herself as she felt her eyes begin to water. 'Dammit.' She cursed in her mind as the image of Vilkas and Njada was glued into her mind. Vilkas quickly ran up stairs with only his pants on, he was sweaty. "Where did she go!?" Vilkas asked in a panic. "She ran out." Farkas said.
Vilkas quickly ran after her as he ran out of the building. "June!" Vilkas yelled again as he saw June running down the steps from Jorrvaskr. 'How could I be so stupid.' Tears slowly ran down her cheeks. 'Why does it hurt so bad?' She thought to herself as she kept running. She knew Vilkas was right behind her but she didn't care, she ran through Whiterun pushing the gates open.
Vilkas sprinted down the streets trying to catch June but she was too far ahead of him. "Wait!" He shouted running faster. June quickly ran to the stables and jumped up on one of the horses. "Hey!" The stable owner yelled. "Out of my way!" She yelled as she kicked the horses sides making it sprint off. "Thief!" He yelled running after the horse but quickly stopped watching her take off.
Vilkas stopped at the stables out of breath. "She stole my horse!" The man yelled in anger as he saw Vilkas. Vilkas just stood there watching June get farther and farther away. 'Please come back..' He thought to himself as he felt his heart begin to sink. Vilkas frowned as he regretted what he just did, she came back. But she came back to what was a horrible sight. 'I'm so sorry..' His stomach began to ache. 'Why did I go back...I shouldn't of gone back..' June thought to herself biting her lower as tears streamed down her face.
A couple days later and the door to the Ragged Flagon slammed open causing everyone inside to jump and turn towards it. "I'm back!" June yelled as he walked in with a wide grin on her face. "Hey!" They all yelled holding their mugs in the air. "Get me a drink Vekel and make it strong!" June yelled taking a seat at the bar. "You got it!" He said grabbing a mug. "Where the hell have you been?" Delvin asked taking a seat next to her. "Oh you know, non of your damn business!" June shouted laughing loudly.
Brynjolf kept his seat as he smiled seeing June had come back after all but he could tell something was off about her, he rubbed his chin as he watched her quickly gulp down the drink that Vekel gave her. Everyone gathered around her laughing and talking as if nothing had changed since she left. June was laughing with them as if nothing was wrong with her.
Even though she had a big grin on her face and a mouth full of mead, her heart was aching and her stomach was slowly made his way to June and took a seat next to her putting his arm around her with a smile forming on his face, she was back with the guild and it seems like she was staying with the guild.
