Exton

Raina was trying to keep an eye on the duel and Star at the same time. Star had moved a bit and was standing at the edge of the trees, her body stiff and straight, not making a sound. A knife of some sort was visible under her shirt on the left side. She must be left handed....Tiger was sitting about a foot away, watching Erik intently. Raina wasnt sure that if something happened to Erik she could control the big cat. Panther was in front of Star, leaning against her, offering what comfort she could under the circumstances.

Raina was worried, Star hadnt uttered a word and her eyes were a strange murky color, her face almost expressionless until she had caught sight of the two fae. Then her eyes hardened and turned black as night, and Raina could feel the hate rolling off Star in waves. As Raina's eyes switched back and forth from her brother to Star she noticed Stars arms folded in front of her, her nails digging into her upper arms leaving small but deep cuts. Blood was starting to trickle down and drip off her elbows.

Aww, bloody fucking hell. Maybe she shouldnt be seeing this... Raina moves to stand behind Star, knowing there is little she can do now without distracting Erik. She gently puts her hands on Stars shoulders, willing her to relax and whispering to her. “Star, sweetie, stop. Dont hurt yourself. Its going to be all right. He is doing fine. If it looks like the fae is winning, he isnt. Its a trick to let him think he has the advantage.”

Raina gets no response from Star who remains still and silent. “I'm going to stay right here with you, okay? I wont leave you alone. And Gunnaar is close by too...”

Raina sees the slightest nod of Stars head and her attention returns to the clearing and the fight.
