"Alright.. Hyaenis?" [i]Armillion began, as the politician nodded.[/i]
"The city's been locked down, entirely. Trade routes are cut off, caravans are being searched, alongside their passengers. A city-wide search is being lead, from the palace to the sewers. And yet, nothing."
"Nothing, yet." [i]Armillion muttered.[/i] "...Could Julian's kidnapping and David's assault be related, though?"
English
-
David would speak, "It most likely would seem it would be. But... we have no evidence of any connection avalible."
-
"...Other than the dagger I showed you." [i]Armillion sighed.[/i] "It's as if a wealthy noble of Trayve instigated this." [i]His eyes studied Lupus and Hyaenis in general. While Hyaenis met his gaze calmly, Lupus would only stare at the table, before speaking.[/i] "Or it could be a framing, simply put."
-
"He raises a fair point. Those cutthroats will do anything, to gain power. Including framing. You look awful suspicious there, Lupus," David would note, "On the flip side, I think we all know their motive. Eliminate the heirs, then the guards, then you, Armillion. If they ask a ransom for Julian, I'm willing to bet it will for you give up your throne."
-
"[i]Suspicious[/i]?" [i]Lupus sighed, his green eyes staring upon the Titan.[/i] "Suspicious, hmm? Not a day after you arrive, and all of these events occur in the hour or two that you were present. I would have you know, I have nothing to gain from.. regicide." [i]He murmured, looking at Armillion.[/i] "These scoundrels want to separate us. If we keep infighting, they will." [i]Armillion announced.[/i]
-
"Armillion is right. If we keep b*tching and pointing fingers, they'll have more chances to attack," David agreed, "I regret pointing my finger at you, Lupus, during this matter."
-
"[i]Thank you[/i]. That means so much." [i]Lupus sarcastically remarked, while the lady Pontiff would clear her throats.[/i] "Even the songstresses have no foretelling of Julian's fate. All that we have is the knife.." "A ransom is coming. That's how kidnapping works." [i]Armillion closed his fist, while Hyaenis silently took notes in the background.[/i] "But if they seek to eliminate my heirs.. Arthur's disappearance, Freya's injury, Niki and Oliver kidnapped, now Julian.. Isabella would be next."
-
"Ní bhíonn Knight Glas ar iarraidh, tá tú ag iarraidh," David muttered under his breath. [spoiler]Translation: Green Knight [Oliver] is not missing you morons.[/spoiler] "I told you, they want Armillion's throne as their ransom," he replied.
-
[i]While Latrans and Lupus payed the murmuring no mind, Armillion remembered it from earlier, while Hyaenis clearly noticed it. He recognized the language, but didn't openly admit it.[/i] "Then what? Do we just wait?" [i]Armillion muttered.[/i] "No. I'm taking action." "Sending innocents to die isn't action, it's stupid." [i]Lupus muttered.[/i]
-
Edited by Splashback77: 1/21/2018 1:13:57 AM"We can't send innocents in. But we can't sit around. The symbols on the dagger can either mean who made it, or who it was made for. Well, I'm not sure which one because I'm not really from around here."
-
[i]Hyaenis would nod towards David then, as the rest of the council fell silent. He had an interest for the man and the dagger. Perhaps he could help.[/i] "Gods help us now.." [i]Armillion muttered.[/i] "I'll need a messenger. This council is temporarily dismissed. Isabella needs to know."
-
David looked to Hyaenis, [i]Maybe he can help....[/i] Suddenly, a dalmation-patterned pegasus bursted into the meeting. "What. The. F*ck!" David yelled. The equestrian seemed skittish, and tired, as it whined and bucked. Amethyst appeared, "I hate to admit this, but I understand horse."
-
"[i]Seven hells[/i]-" [i]Armillion yelled, as the Lionknights in the room drew their swords. Though while Latrans seemed shocked, and Lupus merely observing, Hyaenis stood.[/i] "Hold!" [i]He yelled at the knights, who sheathed their swords.[/i] "...Now.. what exactly [i]is[/i] a pegasus doing here?"
-
David's hand reached for the Dark-Drinker. The pegasus would lie on the ground, writhing in pain, and shifting, until ot was no longer a pegasus. But, a man in seemingly lanky old Middle-Ages knight armor from Earth, and a cloak that was a wolfskin, with a wolfhead for a hood. "Oh Traveler... that dragon. That little psychotic elf lady... that damn dragon..." he cursed, panting. The man sounded younger, even younger than David. "Who are you?" David asked. "Fabio," the man panted, "I was supposed to infiltrate Khaom... until psychotic elf.... released that dragon..."
-
"Psychotic elf.. Charla." [i]Hyaenis muttered, looking at Armillion.[/i] "Charla. Releasing a.. dragon? But.." "[i]Treasonous whоre![/i]" [i]Armillion yelled out, while he certainly didn't show any mercy to Fabio.[/i] [spoiler]RED ZONE. Though it's really unlikely that you screw up, lol.[/spoiler] [i]The hulking man stomped over and grabbed Fabio by the throat, lifting him up with only one hand. Even as he was aged, Armillion was terrifically strong, as Latrans cried out, Hyaenis setting down his books.[/i] "Sir, this is no time for death!" [i]Meanwhile, Lupus leaned in his seat, smiling.[/i] "[i]Silence![/i] I want answers. Now! Why did you let her free Ragnarok? Why is she not dead? [i]Where is my daughter's companion, Traci[/i]? Tell me, damn you!"
-
"Beating... the shit... out of elf... and the dragon...." he croaked, "I... know... other information..." David raised his eyes, and looked at Fabio. "Má deir sé rud ar bith faoin áit a bhfuil mo mháthair, beidh mé ag fulaıngt orm féin," he muttered. [spoiler]Translation: If he says anything about where my mother is, I wil f*cking smite him myself.[/spoiler] "Whoa, David. Calm down," Amethyst warned. "Luaigh an fučk síos? D'fhéadfadh sé a fháil amach cá bhfuil Sarah agus ridire uaine!" He whisper-yelled. [spoiler]Translation: Calm the f*ck down? He could know where Sarah and green knight [Oliver] is![/spoiler] "Well, they're going to f*cking know if you don't stop talking about it in your native language," she whispered back.
-
[i]While Hyaenis was still heavily intrigued, even understanding of David's angered yells, Armillion only grunted and then threw Fabio to the solid ground, stepping back and allowing the shapeshifter to rise.[/i] "Speak, damn you." [i]The king murmured.[/i]
-
Edited by Splashback77: 1/20/2018 8:49:36 PM"I know where the bastard [i]really[/i] is," Fabio spoke, "I can tell you where he is, and show you for the right price?" David jumped at the Hunter, holding his sword at Fabio's throat. "Even though your mother that was in the Dojo was not the one from your timeline, you're still a Momma's boy," Fabio noted. "I'll slit your damn throat if you don't shut your mouth, bean farmer," David warned. "Oh don't worry, big buff, cream puff, I'll only going to asking for double my last offer," Fabio muttered. "How do you know?" David demanded. "Grey may be clever, but her Ghost, not so much. Didn't lock up the private channels good enough. Centauri was able to eavesdrop with ease."
-
"Then speak." [i]Armillion's tone was cold and ruthless, for Oliver was his son. Yet David could see something within the lumbering giant of a man. Something.. that suggested that he wouldn't let Fabio live.[/i] [i]He was going to kill him.[/i]
-
"On the Dojo Tatakai, the woods outside of Dojoville, there is a gate. The gate, one one steps into the System of Sol. On the other side if the gate, you will 3 times out of four, wind up on a planet that does not have enough Oxygen for a human to breathe. If you let me live, I can lead you to where Oliver resides," Fabio spoke. David pushed the Dark-Drinker, closer to the Hunter's throat, it beginning to glow with Void Light, as drew blood from the Hunter. Fabio backed up, his Ghost appearing and healing the damage. "I'll kill you, for this, Hunter," David growled. "What's wrong, David?" The Hunter mocked making his voice sound more dainty, "You afraid they'll kill your momma? Lose her, just like you did the one from your reality." "Shut. The f**k. Up!" David yelled.
-
"Very well. As for your payment. You abandoned your duty. You abandoned your allies. You betray your kin. You treat me as a source of profit. You subject hundreds of innocents to death. Therefore.. my gift to you is a quick death." [spoiler]RED ZONE.[/spoiler] [i]Armillion's arms then shot for Fabio's head, as the king would grab the shapeshifter's skull. His hands planted firmly upon Fabio's skull, his thumbs retreating to his eye sockets and attempting to push into his eyes.[/i]
-
"My kin is the wilds.... and I shall return to them," Fabio breathed his final breathe. Blood stained the king's hands. "NO!" The Hunter's Ghost shrieked. "Centauri, think of it this way, since you can't revive him here, you get a second chance, and find a Guardian who isn't a traitorous scumbag," David replied. "Yeah, you get to find someone cute. Meanwhile, I'm stuck with noble temper man, over here," Amethyst told Centauri. "Oh suurre... Amethyst..." Centauri said. "Amethyst..." David chided. "Seriously, David's older brother is far more charming. He's also daring and adventurous and cute. Have you heard his Irish accent? He's sooo awesome," the purple Ghost fangirled. "Amethyst... what have I told you about embarrassing me by talking about Jack?" David asked. "To not to..." Amethyst said. "I believe we have better things to discuss. Including, what to do now that Armillion knows where they are," Centauri said. "Eh, I guess send a small team through the gate to scout out the area, and you can go with them so when one of them dies, you can revive them," she suggested. "Amethyst... shut up," Centauri would growl. "I apologize about Amethyst, she really runs her mouth, as you can see," David told the council.
-
[i]David's apology would go nearly unnoticed (though Hyaenis noticed and held up a pale hand, about to say "No worries, sir-") as Latrans screamed out as Armillion finished the job, with Lupus backing up in his chair.[/i] [i]The king dug his thick thumbs deep into Fabio's head, boring through the skull before ripping both fingers out and simply breaking Fabio's neck afterwards.[/i] "My daughter.." [i]He murmured.[/i] "...will not be pleased." "Excuse me, what?" [i]Lupus stood up, as the bloody king responded.[/i] "...Isabella tamed Ragnarok, when the creature was but the size of a pony. Now.. it is likely that he is dead. No matter.."
-
"As for this new information, Armillion, what will you do with it?" David asked, "You know where Oliver is, are you going to go... er retrieve him, or will you let him be." Amethyst piped up, "I will admit, if Sarah's with him, he's safe. She's a bit of a badass."
-
"...Perhaps there's more than a few reasons to why my son has left this war. But.." [i]Armillion sighed, wiping off his bloodstained hands with a napkin from his robing. He turned his gaze to David, sighing.[/i] "No matter. I have a kingdom to rule. If he chooses to stay out of this chaos.. that is his choice."
-
Edited by Splashback77: 1/26/2018 9:22:55 PMThe Titan sighed in relief. As long as Armillion wouldn't try to visit, his half-siblings would be safe. David looked at the stiletto. He scan it for any defining symbols.
