"Oh, deathy, that was SO SAD," Greatness told him, making a pitiful face, "your perfect little rainwing abandoned you for some seawing."

Deathbringer glared at her. If Glory hadn't told him to stay still, Greatness would have suffered some major injuries.

Greatness seemed to read his mind, coming closer so that their snouts were only inches apart. "You do everything she says. It's kind of funny, really - Deathbringer, the famous nightwing rebel,  bowing to a rainwing?"

Deathbringer couldn't stop himself from clawing her forearm once. It was a minor scratch, but it was mostly out of frustration. 

The Rainwings supposed to be watching them had fallen asleep, so he had no backup or distraction if things got bad. 

To his surprise, Greatness didn't flinch. "I'm not who you thought I was. I can be just like her, Deathbringer. Everything you love about her I have too."

"Really. I didn't think you even had a soul," Deathbringer smiled brutally. 

Greatness smiled back. "Sometimes I wonder that myself. But I could become whoever you want, Deathbringer, kind, pathetic, an idiot, sure. I just want to be with you."

Deathbringer felt a shock of panic spread inside his head. "You'll never be Glory," he told her, steel in his voice.

If he thought Greatness was going to be angry or sad in response, he was sorely disappointed. She only smiled wider, a manic, unstable smile that made him shift his pouch of weapons closer. 

"I don't need to be Glory. I'm Greatness."
