It took all of Silver's power to try not to destroy this pest. Elysia had gripped him tightly and whimpered "Please calm down."
His eyes lost their reddened color, back to purple. The flames seemed to fall back to usual intensity. He squeezed her sadly and whispered,
"sorry..."
He glared at the nuisance Cross. He quickly popped him, square in the jaw, with a clean kick, and the effects of a Dizzy Punch. Silver smirked a bit darkly, adding,
"Enjoy the confusion, pest..."
and walked away with Elysia, satisfied with himself now, after the "Dizzy Kick" he had landed right in Cross' face...
As they padded back to their group, he clutched her closer than usual, his eyes seeming a bit dim with worry.
"I overreacted, didn't I...?"
He frowned, before watching Cross, waiting to see what the confusion effect would cause him to do. That cheered him up a bit...
