Rudolph limped into the bar. His short height for once coming in handy. The place was crowded from wall to wall. Nearly every available space was coated with a person. Chairs and tables were all packed. He had to elbow his way to the bar so he could order a drink. All he could think was that whoever the bar had booked tonight sure must be popular. The brunette had never seen the place so packed. His grey eyes traveled up to the stage just as Rassa stepped onto it to sing. He froze. His entire body froze into place as his mind was taken back to the last time he saw her. It was up in the sky. The wide expense. The freedom of flight. The freedom of just being with her. Then came the attack. The dogfight was something horrible and...And...His mind rejected whatever memories that his brain tried to show him so he couldn't remember that. But she was okay. She had managed to escape. She hadn't perished. Not like....Not like he was lead to believe.<br/><br/>Her song plucked at his heart and he pushed himself away from the bar. As much as he wanted to stay. As much as he wanted to hold her in his arms again...He just couldn't. He had changed too much. There was no way that he was the same man she had fallen in love with. He tried move back to the door, growling as the people pressed forward to the stage. They were making it difficult so he all but had to push and shove to make any headway.
