Gobsmacked Guardians

The four guardian beasts wondered just how close to danger they were earlier.

"We are lucky it was the other celestial acting instead of the great 'being'. Otherwise we'd all be dead right now." The Black Tortoise stated with a hint of fear in its voice.

"Indeed… I've only heard rumors about the powers of that 'being' but even a slight movement is apparently enough to shred worlds." The Vermilion bird chimed in. 

"Hmmm… what is that being at? We know for sure they are not a Celestial." The White Tiger asked curiously.

"That is not for us to know." The Azure Dragon replied. "Or rather… do you wish to bear the burden of knowing that?" he asked.

~gulp~

The White Tiger swallowed its saliva knowing it had touched on something really sensitive. "Of course not." 

"It is best that the others think it was two celestials interfering and not one celestial and one…" The Vermillion bird stopped talking there.
