Urdin had relished in the cold air of the evening. He pounded his feet as hard as he could. His mind was slowly slowing down as a cadence played in his head. His father had taught, or rather trained several into his head during their early morning runs. He kept a fast but steady pace. Breathing slowly still. He still thought of Zaffre. From their mission the first week of Beacon, to helping protect her from the mercenary he himself had hired, to the night of prom just a few weeks ago. He cherished the memories. But with everyone of them someone kept comignback.

Raleigh...

He squinted his eyes shut and doubled his pace. He was practically sprinting now, and his lungs started to burn. He was on his sixth lap. two around Beacon, three through it, and now another around it again. He had hoped to run into someone he knew. Maybe even Ozpin or Port for help. Even if it was to get his head on another topic. He rounded a bend in the walkway and made a sharp turn for a door into a dorm wing. His cloak trailed behind him and he decided to make another lap through the school. Partly because a group of students out for a stroll appeared and he didn't feel like trying to get around them at his speed.

Once inside he tripped and stumbled. He slowed down back to his rythmic march as he went down the halls. A few students shot him strange looks. He resumed his cadence in his head.

I'll kill a Grimm with my two hands

''hoo-ah. hoo-ah''

And any man with four limbs

''hoo-ah. hoo-ah''

I'm a helluva killing machine

Rivers of blood beneath my feet.

I'll kill any Grimm with only my two hands.

"Do you still love Raliegh?"

The last thought caught himself off guard. Words asked by Zaffre when they were in the Brew and Bunk. Just as quickly he heard Raliegh's voice as well.

"Do you still love Zaffre?" That phrase was the creation of his own mind. Urdin stopped panting, arms trembling. He leaned against the the wall and thunked his head against it loudly. Then slid to the floor.

"I give up. What the hell do I do?" Urdin asked to noone in particular, thunking his head twice more.
