Basil watched as Root left. The coward. He couldn't face the fact that HE was better for Coraline. Not him. Just as friends though of course. The thought of love made him wanna throw up. "You okay?" Coraline asked, placing her paw on his shoulder. "Uh...yeah, I'll be right back. I need to use...the bathroom." He replied, his eyes flicking back and forth between her and Root, who was now getting farther and farther away. Coraline nodded and resumed firing questions at her sister. He ran towards Root. He must of heard the thump of his paws as he raced towards him, because his ear flicked irratibly and glared at him. "What do you want?" He snarled, his dark brown eyes peircing into his. Basil glanced at his claws. He could do it right now. It would only take a touch to his fur....no. He couldn't, not when there could be witnesses. Feuiya would surely piece it together, if not anyone else. It make take a while...it could work...but, no. Not now. Basil cleared his throat. "Just...checking on you." Root rolled his eyes. "We both know there's something else you want. You didn't come to do that, I can see it in your eyes." Basil looked away. "Your smarter than you used to be...Mendax." Root's eyes widened. "How...? You...weren't...there, so..." He stuttered, his words slurred together. Basil chuckled. "I know more than you think. I know about that day. It's a shame you couldn't take it. It would have been amusing to see the great legend be able to do it. But you didn't have the guts." He snarled back, smirking. He heard the thump of pawsteps. Coraline. "Basil! I thought you were going to the bathroom?" Basil turned towards her, his face now normal. "I did. I was saying goodbye to M- I mean Root." He replied. Coraline glanced at Root. "Do you have to go so soon?" She seemed dissapoitned. Root nervously looked away. "Yes. A uh...family emergency. It's very important." Coraline didn't believe him, he could tell. No matter. There were a lot of things she didn't know about Mendax. "Bye..." She said, and turned away, pulling Basil with here. Everything was in motion.
I had the time to copy the script an decided to post this. :3 TN by @Bluecat6284 Mendax means something in latin.
