He looked towards the noise
"Were you even listening to that woman? have you even spoke with mom?"

"I only heard the last part. That's why I'm asking..." Leone said, looking at him while handing the Stand another bearing. "I have been talking with Ry, though not as much recently due to me needing to take care of something right now. Look, I might not know exactly what just happened, but you should know people care about you... A lot. Ry, Cass and I do for sure." He said as Holy Diver shot another bearing, this time hitting something organic with a small squelch.
-
"Maybe if you guys cared, you'd've piped up. At least y'all take care of Cassie." He said bitingly, and you had to admit, from Alpha's perspective Ry did pay more attention to Nada and Beta "But y'all finally start to give a shit.....only when this happens? I hope you don't treat your own kid like this" Ouch. He spoke venomously, his fangs gleaming in the light.
-
That comment got to Leone, it had truly pissed him off. So disrespectful... Even when he was starting to try... He got comments like that. The Stand hovered in front of Alpha and slapped him, hard. Even with all that fur it wasn't enough to contain his slap full of rage to the face. "[b]Never say that again Alex.[/b]" He said, sounding oddly calm before putting his hands and bag in his pockets and getting up. "You should probably come back to the ship you know, Ry would want you to be there. Not to mention you'd be safer, with food and warmth. Instead of the bitter cold out here. I'm heading back, you should too...at least we want you to be there." He started to walk off, looking down. Leone already started to regret that...but he just went too far.
-
Alpha didn't get up, the skin on his cheek was torn, and he bled there some. he put his face in his hands, defeated. "I......I'm sorry....." he whispered, trying to hold back a few tears, but he knew that if leone said that, then who's to say he wouldn't use those tears against him?
-
Leone turned around and walked back, the Stand carefully approaching Alpha. "[b]Holy Diver. Fix.[/b]" He commanded his Stand placing its hand on his cheek carefully, with a small golden aura the wound was healed, reverted to a previous state before he was slapped. "Can you come back...please?"
-
"Fine....." he got up, hands in his pockets
-
"Thank you Alex. Now I'm not going to get you in trouble or tell your mother about this...seeing how she would be heartbroken by that, just please...never say that again." Leone said, looking at Alpha's eyes with his own Sea Green eyes.
-
Alpha didn't meet them, looking down "I'm sorry......I....let's just go"
-
"Yeah..." He said, turning around with his stando disappearing. Leone started to walk in the direction of their home.
-
Alpha put his hands in his pockets "I killed.......that's what I did. tens of thousands dead at my hand....."
-
"I...see." Leone said, stopping in his tracks. "I bet it didn't feel good...ending another's life just like [i]that[/i]. I killed someone once....in self defense, after I got pierced by an Arrow I drove my newly formed Stand's fist through his abdomen.....I hated that and I still do."
-
"And before that......I killed a kid.....I was human then......heh.....I...." He broke into sobs all of sudden
-
Leone went back again and hugged him, patting his back. "Just let it all out....it's fine to, I won't say anything."
-
"The....hell is there to say?.......why did you both adopt me? I....I...I'm not a good person like Cassandra....I.."
-
"...We adopted you because we don't care about past actions, not to mention we don't want to separate siblings from each other. At least I don't care about past actions much. But I know you can possibly be a good person...I hope."
-
He laughed without mirth or merryment "Hope? ha! You hope??"
-
"Hmm. Let me rephrase that. I know you can be a good person." Leone said, letting go of the hug. "Everyone can get a second chance Alex. I'll tell you that much."
