Fablehaven Brackendra + Centaurs

Fablehaven Brackendra + Centaurs

CREDIT TO @fablehavenshitposts FOR THE IDEA. If you have any, please message me :)

It was a miserable day- the sky couldn’t seem to decide it it wanted to rain, be cloudy, or just be both at once. Which, of course, was why the Centaurs insisted on meeting outside to discuss Vanessa’s punishment.

‘Honestly- it isn’t even that bad! Bracken can just sever the hold, Greymane!’ Kendra was tired of all the polite compromises, and the outburst took her by surprise. Bracken winced beside her.

The tall Centaur pulled himself up, trying to look as intimidating as possible. Which really wasn’t all that hard.

‘You dare side with the Narcoblix? Even after all the has done to you, and, worse, you dare insult ME? I am the leader of the Centaurs! No puny mortal shall get away with such blasphemy in my presence!’ 

He began to take a threatening step towards Kendra, and just as he was about to take another, Bracken was suddenly there in front of him. Greymane blinked in surprise, and before he could say anything more, Bracken’s fist smashed into his face. The old Centaur staggered backwards, his nose bleeding slightly, and glared at Bracken in shock.

‘And, more importantly, nobody gets away with threatening Kendra in my presence. Vanessa will be pardoned, and we will take away her pizza privileges for a month. No exceptions. And no compromises. That is my final offer, Greymane.’ Kendra gaped at her boyfriend, before the Centaur glowered in assent, trotting away in humiliation.

It would have been a fight that they all knew Bracken would win anyways.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                         ‘Hey, I try to be a peaceful being!’ Bracken argued.

‘You punched a Centaur in the face! Greymane, no les!’ Kendra retaliated.

‘He threatened me.’

‘No, he threatened ME.’

‘When someone threatens you, they threaten me, because you are my life.’

‘...That was incredibly smooth and beautiful...’

‘You still punched a Centaur in the face, though.’

‘Wait. You punched Greymane in the face!? And I wasn’t even there!?’ Seth was upset to say the least. Although perhaps for all the wrong reasons. Kendra hadn’t even noticed him sneaking up on her.

Bracken blushed slightly, looking down in embarrassment.

‘He threatened Kendra.’

‘NOW you admit it!’ Kendra grinned. Suddenly Bracken seemed to realize something.

‘Oh no. Mother’s going to kill me.’

Amazing

Truth or Dare

“Truth or Dare?” The Question can put of nowhere and caused Bracken to look over at the young shadow charmer chained next to him. “ We’re in a dungeon. ” He replied slightly confused as to what possessed his friend to start this game now. “ Yes, very observant of you. That still doesn’t change my question, Truth or Dare. ” Seth pushed again. Bracken sighed knowing he wouldn’t stop until he got his way and he was in no mood to deal with Lawyer Seth. “Truth.” He replied not even sure what date you could do with you wrists chained to a wall. Though knowing Seth, he’d find a way. “ What are your intentions with my sister. ” “Dare.” Bracken immediately replied, willing to do anything else than have this conversation with Seth. “I dare you to tell me what your intentions with my sister are.” Seth shot back with a massive eye roll. “ you want to talk about this now? ” “ Yeah because now you can’t run away as you’ve been not so subtly doing every time I mention it. Besides what else are we supposed to talk about? ” “Oh I don’t know, escape plans? ” Bracken replied sarcastically, desperately trying to get out of having this conversation. He loved Seth, he was like the little brother he never had but that didn’t make any of it any less awkward. “Just answer the question.” Seth said with yet another eye roll. “ I don’t know what to say Seth. Kendra is amazing, I love her with all of my heart and I can’t imagine life without her. ” “That’s super sappy.” Now it was Bracken’s turn to roll his eyes at the reply. “ Now I do believe it’s my turn, Truth or Dare? ” “Oh so now you want to play? You didn’t seem so eager two minutes ago.” “ Just answer the question. ” Bracken mocked earning a chuckle from the Shadow charmer. “ Dare. ” “ I dare you to tell me why your so invested in your sisters love life. ” Bracken replied turning the boys own trick against him. Seth sighed heavily and looked away, the chains jingling  as he attempted to run his hand through his hair out of habit. “I just, really don’t want Kendra to get hurt.” He replied after several minutes of silence,  " She’s been hurt before and it took her a really long time to trust people again, to open up and talk to people. “ I guess I just want to make sure you know this isn’t a game. Kendra loves you and I don’t want anyone to play with her heart. I don’t want anyone to take advantage of that again. ” “ Seth, I will never ever take advantage of Kendra. She means the world to me, she is my world. And yeah I know sappy but it’s true. I promise you the very last thing in the entire world that I want to do is hurt Kendra. ” Bracken perfectly understood where Seth was coming from, having been there himself on several occasions, but he couldn’t find a way to make sure Seth believed him anymore that he had when he first head similar words. “ I hope for your sake that’s true, because I promise you if you ever hurt her I will make Zzyzx look like the best place on earth. ” “ I believe you, but you won’t have to” Bracken told him and he could help the shiver that shook him at the boys words, the temperature in the room seeming to drop as he made the threat. “I hope not. Now Truth or Dare?” Seth asked again returning to his usual lighthearted and mischievous tone. “ You know what Seth, Dare. Just because I’m curious. ” “ I dare you to make a high pitched scream and act like your scared of a spider. ” “What? Why?” Bracken questioned wondering where the idea had even come from. “ I want to see what the guards do. ” Seth replied with a shrug as if it was the most logical answer in the world.  Yeah this was going to be interesting .

I shoved my books into my bag and grabbed Seth’s. He’d forgotten it when he ran out that morning.

I made it to school, thankfully, with enough time to hunt down Seth and give him his book.

“Thanks, general.” He chirped, with a cheeky grin.

I rolled my eyes, he was still calling me that from when I’d led the fairies against Bahumat. Brat.

“You’re welcome seal boy.”

I left to my first class of the day.

“You were almost late Kens, what happened?”

“Oh, Seth forgot one of his books at home, I had to bring it to him.”

They blinked, “Oh that sucks that your parents made you do that.”

I blinked, “They didn’t make me? I just brought it to him.”

They looked at me in confusion. Weird.

+++++++++++

I scrambled for my things and realized Kendra forgot her water bottle. Oh well, I guess I have enough time to get it to her.

I hurried to the bus and sat with my friends.

“What’s with the water bottle?”

“Oh, Kendra forgot it, I’ll drop it off in her class on our way in.”

They stared, “Dude, since when did you grab your sister’s things? I thought she was annoying?”

I blinked, “I mean she can be obnoxious but she’s not that bad. She’s got my back.”

They just stared. I shrugged and changed the subject.

We reached the school and I found her classroom.

“Hey sparkles!”

Kendra turned, rolling her eyes, “Yeah battery boy?”

“You forgot your water bottle,” I tossed it to her.

She brightened, “Thanks!”

“No prob, see you later.”

“Bye.”

++++++++++++++++++

“Pool Party!” Alyssa cried, jumping in the small lake they were visiting.

Seth snickered beside me, “Careful sis, you might get dragged in.”

I laughed, “Then it’d be a real shame if you fell in huh?”

I shoved him in, laughing as he squawked.

I laughed on the dock as he surfaced.

“Naiad!” He cried, lunging for my foot.

I quickly scrambled back, giggling as he tried to reach me.

“You’re a little to male to be a Naiad Seth.”

“I’ll get you yet you pesky boring human! With your short life span and and stylish clothes!”

I laughed again, “You’re so dumb Seth.”

“I don’t get it.” Trina muttered.

The lake was a lot of fun.

++++++++++++++++++

“Ugh, come on general sparkles, do you have to have so many people over?”

“There’s three of us Seth.” Kendra grumbled.

I huffed, “No there’s four.”

“I meant there’s three guests here.”

“You should be clearer.”

I walked into Kendra’s room after her, then noticed the window open.

“Oh no! You’re letting the wolves in!”

Kendra laughed, “We’d better close the window before the snake’s follow.”

“We’re all going to get eaten by wolves and snakes and it’s all your friends fault General Sparkles. You should kick them out.”

“Just grab the shotgun.”

I stuck my tongue out. She made a face back.

I couldn’t help laughing at the confusion on her friends faces.

++++++++++++

Trina shook her head, “I don’t get their relationship. Just last year Kendra did nothing but complain about Seth, now they have inside jokes and nicknames that aren’t insulting… I think?”

“Yeah,” Alyssa said, “It’s so weird. Did you hear them the other day? Seth was drinking milk and Kendra made a comment about him being able to see like her again and he just laughed and said at least he didn’t have to see ugly goblins?”

“Seriously?” Brittany asked, “That’s so random.”

“Yeah. I wonder what happened.” Trina murmured.

“I don’t know.”

“Beats me.”

Kendra- “Why”

Seth- “Why not? You microwave popcorn.”

Kendra- “But French Fries aren’t popcorn!”

Seth-

Kendra-

Seth- *Sneaks a badly burned, unrecognizable lump that used to be a French Fry into his mouth and chews slowly*

Do you have any holiday/winter themed fh headcanons?

No, sorry. I live in Australia, so we don’t really get that much winter

Fablehaven Head Canons

-Bracken is the youngest, and Mizelle is the second oldest.

-Marla and Scott were crazy invested in the magical world after discovering it. As in, CRAZY, crazy. You’re going to Wyrmroost? Have fun! Dragons? Cool. Demons? Awesome! Both our children are going on a mission with a high chance of death? I’ll pack doggy bags (complete with sandwiches and pop tops!)

-Unicorns age like humans until about 21, when they get their third horn, and even then only look about 15, slowly aging both physically and mentally, so by the time Bracken meets Kendra he is literally 17-ish in everything but official age.

-Kendra ends up doing an online University/college degree, and both the Sorenson's are home-schooled. Since, you know, Kendra is technically legally dead and all that...
