[1x1] Fly away little Bird (Gale and Israfel)

[kuropeco]

What was wrong with this creature? Gale could not understand him, and it frustrated him. He took several steps back away, dropping his hand from the door and lowering his arm to his side. His other hand still held the rifle, his finger automatically on the trigger, but he didn't fire it. Not yet.

"That's..." He stopped. Swallowed hard. "That's foolish to think. There isn't a way to just live peacefully with one another, not after all that we've done to each other. You've killed us, we've destroyed you - in a manner of speaking - and yet you still think that there's a way to live without hurting each other?" Gale shook his head, disbelieving.

I don't understand.

<< There are bound to be those who don't want to fight, Gale. It inevitably happens in any fight. Not everyone is bound by the same reasoning as we are, or as someone else is. >>

When he spoke again his voice was tight, low.

"Get out. Go. Just leave."
