Compound: Eli has a Heart to Heart with Hunter?

Elijah Breed
*I groan while lifting the weights. I have been at it for two hours now and was starting to feel the burn. Nevertheless, I keep going, my muscles working at a furious pace. Sweat rolled down my bare chest* Mother fucking son of a bitch! Who do I have to kill to convince Nathan that I'm fit for duty!!! That fucking bullet will dislodge itself soon, it has to! I'm damn tired of being kept at this compound like a crippled runt! Bloody.Fucking.Hell !!!

Hunter GenOne *As I enter the gym, I hear curses and grunts coming from a corner. I toss my gear bag down and grab a towel before turning to see what commotion is. I lift a brow as I see the younger male, Elijah. His glyphs are raging in colors, displaying his anger. As to what that anger is all about, I haven't a clue. My first thought is to leave the kid alone and let him work it out on his own, but I know he is on my step-sons team. I also hear my beloved, Corinne, urging me to help the male. I let out a silent sigh and walk over to him. Even with his Breed hearing, he doesn't notice me, proving that his thoughts are far away and his anger is getting the best of him. I walk up to the bar, grasping it from his hands and pulling it easily from his grasp. He jumps to his feet immediately, his fighting stance automatic. I set the bar back into it's cradle and look upon the male. His breathing is coming in heavy bursts and his amber eyes are locked on me. I give him a quizzical look* Are you prepared to take action against me, kid? I can guarantee it won't be a pretty sight. I suggest you get a grip on yourself and sit your ass down!
Elijah Breed *The last Breed I was expecting to see tonight is Hunter. My captain's stepfather. With my luck, he probably heard me cursing and ranting about Nate's unwillingness to return me to active duty.* Hey Hunter... I'm sorry, you caught me off guard. *Chuckling bitterly* And no, I don't have a death wish. Though I'm starting to feel suicidal with this forced time out...
Hunter GenOne Good decision, Eli. *I lift a brow, unaware of his circumstances at the moment* Forced time out? I must have missed something. Is there something wrong with your or Nathan's team? *feeling a bit concerned for the young male that I call my son*
Elijah Breed Nothing wrong with the rest of the team, Sir. That bastard Dia Rivera's cronies ambushed us at the docks like a month ago. I was badly hit and now Tess has declared me unfit for duty until one fucking bullet lodged at the base of my spine gets expelled... I'm Breed, I don't go down that easy! I wish I could remove that blasted bullet myself!
Hunter GenOne Ahhh, I see the problem now. Indeed, you are Breed and don't go down easily. However, you are not invincible, Eli. There are too few warriors in the Order to allow any to go out into the field with the least bit of an injury. You know this. But right now, your emotions are getting the best of you. Use your head, kid, and not the one between your legs. You will heal and will do so much faster if you take it easy and not make your issues worse with the body torturing. Tess is a smart female and has taken really good care of all of us for a very long time. As soon as she feels you are ready, you will be back out in the field fighting that bastard along with the rest of us. There's no blame to be given. It is what it is. We have all been injured in the past. It's no fun, but we deal. Got it? *As I watch him, his glyphs return to their normal color and his eyes are back to their normal blue as well. His breathing returns to normal. He continues to be emotional but I can tell he is working my words out in his head.*
Elijah Breed *I listen to Hunter's words and they click in my head. I'm of no use to The Order if I allow myself to be re-injured... Worst yet, I could cause another warrior to get hurt trying to help me. It sucks big, hairy balls but it is what it is... *Ok, Sir, I hear you. Tess said I should be as good as new in about a month. I don't know what the hell I'm going to do until that but I'll wait.*Smiling* Thank you.
