Author's Note, I'm new here on FF and this my story. In Sithis' name. I hope you enjoy the story by the time we're done. I love Constructive Critiqueing and I hope you all give it.
Disclaimer: I don't own Oblivion or the Dark brotherhood or Any of the songs in this fic unless Specified.
They all clapped as I finished the song. I love my life with a passion. I'm a famous bard in the Imperial city. What else could I need?
I had fans, houses and money. Okay so I'll admit, I'm not really famous, but I do have all the other things. I play at the Tiber Septim once a day.
Anyway my song was up and I slung my lute onto my back and made my way out of the tavern. Into the chilly night air. I love the imperial city just for that reason, Always nice and cold. I saw a movement out of the corner of my eye as I walked from the tavern door.
"Excellent show tonight." Aramis said disdainfully. Ugh, I want to go home. I don't want to deal with this fetcher.
"What the hell do you want…Bosmer." I spat the word. Okay so maybe I'm racist. Sue me.
He glowered. "I'm ten times better at music then you will ever be." He sighed. I had had enough of this freaking, midget, ass elf. I turned right on my heel and punched him as hard as I could in the face.
He toppled backwards and fell on the cobbled lane. His nose bleeding profusely.
"Shut up." I said smugly and made my way home. That was fun, I even knocked him down.
I don't even remember why our feud started though. It was something about me being better and singing and him being better at instruments I believe.
Flashback
Lyrics of Heart of Lilith by Inkubus Sukubus
She has come from the shadows of the dream world
A dark angel from the darker side of love
Across a sea of tears
A hundred thousand years
Come with her and dance in the moon light
And you are lost to this world evermore
Put your hand in her hand
Come and fly now with the angels
Rise again now like the phoenix
Your the love that lives forever
In the heart that never dies, never dies
Heart of Lilith!
Come and drown in the lake of her passion
Come and die so you can be reborn
Hear the siren sing
Hear the death knell ring
She's a witch a siren and a vampyre
She has come from the distance stars
To take your heart
To break your heart
Come and fly now with the angels
Rise again now like the phoenix
Your the love that lives forever
In the heart that never dies, never dies
Heart of Lilith!
Come and kiss, kiss the lips of Lilith
Come and kiss and you will be no more
Feel the fire
Of desire
Come and fly now with the angels
Rise again now like the phoenix
Your the love that lives forever
In the heart that never dies, never dies
Heart of Lilith!
Come and fly now with the angels
Rise again now like the phoenix
Your the love that lives forever
In the heart that never dies, never dies
Heart of Lilith!
I sang the tune perfectly. The light notes hitting fine, the low notes hitting balance. The crowd cheered slightly. Except for him, he who sat in the back of the Tavern, with an evil glint in his chocolate eyes.
"Tell me…whore, can you best me?" He whispered. I smirked.
"Only on my worst days." I offered dangerously. He strode closer with his lute and the song began again. His fast paced playing left me in the dust as my high, harmonic voice left him begging for death.
End Flashback
Ever since that night a year ago we had been trying to out do each other. Maybe it was time to end this feud.
Ah damn, now I fell bad that I knocked him down. I walked back to where he was.
"I'm sorry." I grumbled as I cast a small restorative I knew on his nose. It healed right up but he still glared at me.
"You're a stupid, dumb, idiotic whore." He spat and slapped me. I looked back at him with a look of disgust.
After I just helped him. No way. I punched him and he grabbed my dress and threw me back and tackled me.
After about six minutes of our cat-fighting, I heard the sounds of running feet. Of course, the guards.
Always to the rescue…late. I scrambled away from the stupid Bosmer and stood elegantly, well as much as I could with my black hair ruffled.
I walked away slightly and saw the guards running at full speed towards us. I was an Imperial; I don't lie on the ground, especially next to a peasant Bosmer.
"Are you two at it again?" I heard a familiar voice behind me. It was Captain Adamus Philida.
Well, this wasn't exactly the first time me and Aramis had gotten in a scuffle. Or will it be the last
"Yeah." Aramis threw me a death glare when I said that one word.
"Elluvia, what did he do this time?" Adamus said with distaste. I was probably interrupting his cups.
"He tackled me." I said vindictively. "After she punched me in the face." Aramis screamed.
"I healed it." I said with heavy sarcasm.
"Like babysitting a couple of two year olds." Adamus sighed.
"Sorry…dad." I sighed. Adamus was my dad but I didn't call him that unless something like this happened and it lessened my chances of being sent to jail. Which he did once. That was not fun, I got put in a cell next to a freaking lunatic Dunmer. Life can be so cruel.
"Go back to the house, Aramis; you might wanna see the healers about your eye, and nose, and arm it looks like." Dad shook his head wistfully.
I took this opportunity to sneak off toward the direction of the house. When ever he told me to get home, I was about to get yelled at.
Well tonight hadn't gone the way I planned. I was just minding my own business and then I'm tackled by a Bosmer, and now I'm gonna get yelled at by my dad. Life can be so cruel.
