A few days must of passed since she'd learned of the word. Love. The elephant had wandered from their home by herself today, finding Jasmine still very much asleep when she left. The way that beauty looked when sleeping... ahh, that must be what real happiness looks like. What true peace is.

Gada's trunk coiled around plants as she passed by, idly browsing on the go. She had no destination or goal, was merely doing some "me time" while she waited for her treasure to wake up and find her. Eridanus seemed to go on forever. It was pleasant. The cover was perfect, the food bountiful, and every resource more than met. Unfortunately, for Gadana Ama, there was still one lacking need she hadn't fulfilled since she first had eyes on Jasmine.

A cave deer trotted by, no sign of fear of the fellow herbivore. A doe. No baby, but not an old woman either. In less than a moment, the demeanor of the elephant shifted and her trunk coiled around something other than plant-life... a neck. There was a crack as she jerked the little deer up into the air, her neck breaking, but not killing her. Gada dropped the deer that twitched and flailed, unable to do more than that. Terror filled it's eyes and it's mouth gaped in absolute horror as the unusual predator loomed over.

"Oh... I'm sorry. Are you in pain?" she asked mockingly, then lowered a foot onto one of it's legs, slowly adding weight, even as she felt the bones in the poor thing's legs break and shatter. It squealed and she found herself stepping on it's nose next, trying to hush it so Jasmine wouldn't hear it. Somehow, the dumb thing continued to live on, air bubbling through the blood that poured from it's crushed maw, wheezing in it's final breaths.

With a sharp, strong stick she took a moment to find, she punctured it's belly and ripped at the flesh. Her eyes brightened as a smile pulled at her face. The innards poured onto the ground and the deer finally went into a deep state of shock. Every remaining limb became rigid and it's breathing practically quit. Her flexible appendage grabbed up intestine and tossed it up, no longer paying any mind as the deer's final moment subsided, death taking it into whatever it's next life may be.

Blood poured out in a wave. Gadanai pulled up as much of the liquid as she could into her trunk, then showered herself with it, gleeful as her grey body became crimson. The stench of fresh death filled the air, which only encouraged her to drop and roll over the carcass, what was remaining being turned to mush, much of it sticking to her skin as she stood.

A pleased sigh escaped her and she stood there for a moment, eyes closing. She needed this. Gadanai had missed her blood baths.

It filled her with energy. Sadism, torture, the lack of mercy over the weaker. Something about causing misery and death was just... such a turn on. She opened her eyes again, just about to sigh, when her breath hitched. Jasmine spoke and she spun around to look, horror on her own face for a whole different reason. Why didn't she just stay at the cave a little longer? Why is she here now, of all fucking times?

The elephant looked back to her kill, then looked back to Jasmine. The once comforting feel of blood now felt uncomfortably caked, her own self betraying her dirty secret to Jasmine. Did she tell the truth? Did she risk it? Lying seemed better, but... she wasn't even prepared to bullshit her way out of this. This spontaneous act would normally be no issue, but she'd come to desire Jasmine's company. The sweet giraffe who would likely leave, after this.

"I..." her voice cracked and she swallowed hard. How was she suppose to explain this all away? "Jas... I don't..."

Gadanai dropped her eyes, her body feeling weak with emotions. This is goddamn ridiculous. I shouldn't have to feel this way because of some bitch. Eyes closed, concealing the red irises, but not managing to evaporate the crimson staining her flesh. She bit down on her tongue, trying to find words for this. An explanation that Jasmine would maybe... understand? By the time her eyes opened again, her own blood filled her mouth, but she didn't dare let Jasmine see that, too.

"I killed it," she said flatly, not really sure how else to put it. "I... I was startled by it and... once I started I just... I couldn't stop myself." A white lie. Yes, that's what it was. A harmless white lie. Tell Jasmine she was unaware of her own tendencies. Maybe she would understand. Gadana Ama hoped and prayed her treasure would "understand" and stay, despite this slaughter house scene. "Jas, I..." she took an uncertain step backward, also moving from the body she'd demolished ruthlessly. "There's something wrong with me."

Pity me. Feel for me. Love me. Stay with me. Worship me. Be my treasure forever. You promised. You promised, Jasmine. You promised me you'd stay forever. Don't make me do this to you, too.

She held her breath. Gada felt like she was turning bluish, but truth was, she remained the same dark grey color. Jasmine finally responded with words and she let out her held breath, relief blanketing her. Jasmine was too kind. So sweet. How did Gadanai get so lucky with such a treasure, such a beauty? It was not easy to hold onto her, that was for sure.

Perfect the way I am? Well, I cannot say I disagree in the slightest, m'love. Her stained trunk hugged the giraffe, eyes closing once more. The breathing of the two was a different kind of pleasure; one that brought on a special kind of calm. Gadanai gave a rumble.

"You are beautiful, my treasure... and I love you."

The words burned her mouth. It tasted vile. Love? She caressed with her trunk. It's strong like hate, but is different.

Gadanai felt her heart pump hard as Jasmine returned her love. She locked eyes with the tall lady, smiling softly. Always here. Maybe someday she would be able to get her love to accept her violence without having to lie about it.

Eyes drifted down to the red on the giraffe's chest, suddenly feeling a little stir inside. Jasmine looked extra lovely with the color mixed into her coat. It was too bad she couldn't say it out loud, or... could she? Gadanai chose to not push her luck, today. It was bad enough she'd been caught. Luck would have it, though, that Jasmine would be blind enough to love her anyway, believing her fibs. Fool. Beautiful fool... beautifully foolish.

"Let's... go wash you off," she said. She didn't want to wash herself, but figured she may have to. The smell was like a perfume to the elephant, covering her with a feeling better than what dirt or mud could achieve. Trunk extended upward, stroking Jasmine's narrow chin once before leading the way to the ponds.

Thoughts wandered within her mind, brain considering all the possibilities ahead. Life here was good and this would always be home, but she desperately needed to find a "legitimate" outlet for her sadism. Something that Jasmine may not question too much. Perhaps someone would allow Gadanai would to join their allegiance, if there was even one present that would suit what she was seeking.

Gadanai watched Jasmine emerge herself in the cool waters, admiring her until she requested the company of the elephant. Her concern for the blood melted away as she waded in. Not as tall as the giraffe, she found herself floating along, paddling about and circling Jas. She grinned, blowing bubbles in the water. Red trailed behind her as she stopped, treading water beside Jas.

Red eyes met the clumped fur of the tall one. She reached and began to wipe at it, gazing at it as it slipped into the waters. The pond became relatively red tinted, the cave deer's blood staining it pleasantly. After Jasmine was cleaned, she swam to shallower water, stopping once she was able to stand on her own and loaded her trunk up with water before reaching backward with it, blowing the water over her back.

The elephant glanced back at Jasmine, then flopped into the water, causing waves. All that was exposed was the end of her trunk, inhaling fresh air. Below, she blew bubbles from her mouth and rooted her tusks around in the muddy bottom. She exploded back out of the water, weeds and mud dripping from her tusks. Another load went into her nose before she turned and sprayed Jasmine for the second time ever, grinning and laughing playfully.
