Everything seems to be back to normal. Elara and Zarkon were happier than ever. Today they were visiting Gnedra and Blaytz on Nalquod. The kids were happy to go see their funny uncle.

Right now, Gnedra, Blaytz, Zarkon, and Elara were chatting on the lounge while the kick played in the connecting game room.

Gnedra was talking about her struggle to get along with Blaytz's brother, Narcos. He would argue and talk bad about her all the time. He simply hates her. Elara and Zarkon weren't very happy with what they were being told.

"At this point I am 100% sure he's planning our downfall." Gnedra huffed.

"It sounds like it. I mean to hate you just because you're Galra is a spit in the face to us too." Elara said.

"He's very out of line." Zarkon snarled.

"Who's out of line?" A new male voice suddenly asked.

"You can tell." Elara huffed.

"Is the brood mare speaking to me?" Narcos asked his brother, obviously referring to Elara because the woman has eight kids.

"What?!" Blaytz gasped in disgust.

"Watch how you speak about my wife! Say anything you want about me but you are to leave her alone!" Zarkon snapped, shooting to his feet.

Elara knows how he gets when people disrespect her. She knows that if Narcos didn't cut it out, Zarkon would lose it and get violent.

"Oh be quiet! That wife of yours looks like she throws herself at every guard in the palace!" Narcos snarked back.

"Are you kidding me? You don't even know me!" Elara argued.

"I don't need to know you to see you're a piece of meat." Narcos snickered.

That seemed to be the final straw for Zarkon. Poor four month old Audax was wailing in terror in his aunt's arms.

Gnedra had to leave the room because things got so ugly with Zarkon and Narcos, it was terrifying Audax. They were literally brawling while Blaytz and Elara tried breaking it up.

"Narcos come on brother cut it out!" Blaytz pleaded.

"Zarkon please, it's not worth it!" Elara said, trying to pull him away from Narcos.

There was no point, she was dwarfed compared to her husband. In the midst of the fight, Narcos threw a few nasty scratches at Zarkon, missed, and it landed on Elara. Specifically, her neck and nose.

The scars bled heavily. Zarkon had seen red in the moment and knocked Narcos out cold. That itself was merciful. 

"Let me see."  Zarkon said, trying to calm down.

She hesitated so moved her hand out of the way and saw the bloody scratches on her neck.

"Blaytz... Keep that demon brother of yours away from Gnedra, me, Elara, and children. If I see him again, you won't have a brother." Zarkon threatened.

"Zarkon that's not neces-" Elara started.

"Quiet!" Zarkon snapped at her.

He had never yelled at her like that in their ten years of marriage.

She was shocked but stayed quiet, knowing better than to argue with him, well it was mainly how her mind worked after everything she endured from being with Razor. Once you yell at her, she fears you. It's all she knows.

"Zarkon, come on man, don't yell at her like that." Blaytz said.

"Well she didn't need to it wasn't necessary when she knew it absolutely is!" Zarkon snarled, glancing down at her.

"You're scaring her!" Blaytz argued.

"I should be the last person she fears! I'm the one protecting her!" Zarkon scoffed.

"Well then stop yelling at her because she did nothing wrong!" Blaytz snapped.

The bickering went on until Elara couldn't handle it and stormed off to the ship, getting Audax and the kids on the way.

Today was awful. Elara was left scarred and emotionally troubled. Zarkon was left with a horrible scar across his left eye down to his mouth along with unnecessary rage towards Elara for some reason.
