forum Rykah and Will(because I can't think of a better title)

“He was a jerk anyway.” Jesse said impulsively, while Anna scowled.

Rykah suddenly got up, "I'll be outside" he said quietly to Will, before heading out the door and into the (Im assuming they have one) backyard, and out into the middle of the lawn. His leg still tingled from last night, and so did his left Wing. But he didnt bother with either, instead gathering his powers. Suddenly a golden short sword sprung to his hand. Hefting it carefully, he carefully launched into a series of movements.

(Oh, I forgot to tell you. On mondays and wednesdays until 4:30 I’m busy after school with A. A Spanish competition(Monday) and B. An Improv competition(Wednesday))
Will watched him leave work concern, before tapping Jesse on the shoulder and nodding towards the back door. Jesse nodded, while the other three got into a loud argument about something. Will didn’t care too much about what the argument was about, so he quickly followed Rykah outside.

Rykah looked up when Will came out, pausing in his training excercises for only a moment before resuming.

Will closed the door and leaned against it. “You ok?”

"Just didn't like the topic," said Rykah, slashing and parrying an invisible enemy. "I keep feeling like that whole incident was my fault."

“Don’t. My dad had it coming for a while.” Will said firmly. “And by the way…. Jesse doesn’t mean anything by whatever he says. He’s…. impulsive. And overprotective.”
(That’s fine, I’m going to dinner in a little while anyway)

"He's not even related to you" said Rykah, slashinf at another invisible enemy to the side, a burst of golden aura accompanying the slash.

Will half-smiled. “Genetically? No. But he’s family. Both him and Finn. We grew up together…. and technically they’re legally my brothers too.”
(And ok)

Rykah raised an eyebrow, "How did that happen?" he asked, working through a different series of movements with his aura blade, adjusting his grip as he went.

“They were in a foster home when we first met them. We made friends with them, and then we realized that the foster home was…. bad. So my family took them to court and got custody of both of them.”

"Oh" so said Rykah, half distracted by his movements.

“Yeah…. two years later they went missing.”

"What happened?" asked Rykah half distracted as he tried to do a move correctly.
(And the writer reads with full interest)

“Well… Jesse…. Jesse got possessed, which was good. Thing possessing him convinced him to take a whole bunch of sleeping pills. We found him in Anna’s room…..” Will shuddered. “He was really,
really dead. Which means he shouldn’t be back at all.” He took a deep breath before saying, “The next day, Finn left that night, and we figured he just hadn’t been able to handle Jesse dying…. so really only Finn was missing…. I don’t know. This is all crazy. I’m glad they’re back, but I’m just a little suspicious that maybe they aren’t my brothers…. but they have to be, right? I don’t think we can handle losing them again. I’m not sure Anna could survive it.” Will’s voice dropped a little and he wiped st his face for a second.

Rykah paused for a moment, watching as Will seemed upset. Letting his aura blade fade he started to come over, but suddenly yelped in pain, falling to the ground, gripping his left leg as it suddenly burned with agony.
(Time for my twist of drama)

“Rykah?” Will asked loudly, before rushing over to him and kneeling down. “What’s wrong?”

"It… burns…" He bit back tears of pain as the old injury burned with agony, he suddenly yelped as his wing began to burn as well.

“Did you do something to cause the pain?” Will asked almost robotically, retreating into doctor mode.

"No…" Rykah cringed, leaning back and blinking away tears. "It.. " he gritted his teeth to keep from crying out as pain swept through both his wing, and his leg.
