So, here my fanfic with Adair-centric. Following Adair's POV through out the entire novel. I love Adair, and I'm a complete sucker for a person with loyalty to boots! Adair's concern and respect for Sun got me hard where it hurts... Seriously, who could resist him? I dare to say he's worthy to be in my list of character, fighting the other candidates for second place (cause Sun would always be my number one).
Almost everytime he shows up, I coo-ed, from the first time he shows up, preparing his captain's breakfast. Or only the mention of him entertaining me. So this fic just happens. But, I'm just a mere normal human, so please if I wrote a wrong line from novel, don't scorn me. Oh! And the grammar! Please don't mind the grammar mistake, english is not my first language.
The first time Adair sees his new captain. Joy, awe, respect, happiness, giddiness, excitement are mixed into one complex emotion. To have captain this perfect... Who won't be happy?
And then, it was thrown out of window when the perfect captain lead them on top a cliff and with his perfect smile and voice he says "Jump."
Oh no... Adair is not easy to bully, he demanded a reason, he refused. But he got blasted off anyway. And even by time he climbed up again, the ever gently smiling captain looked at him expectantly and speak the same order. Adair refused again.
And he got blasted off again.
His eyes speaks disappointment as he explained his reasons, he sighed and revealed a frowning and apologic expression. The only expression that change drastically from his smiling expression. It makes Adair's heart beats faster... Even faster than when he was blasted off of the cliff. His reasons echoed in Adair's mind, his disappointed expression haunting his sight.
Adair stood up, without another word he run and jumped off of the cliff. Ignoring every shouts of exclamation from his comrades.
'You're pass' The wind brought the gentle whisper that sounded like his Captain's voice into Adair's ears.
Since then on, He's the proud vice captain of the elite Sun Knight Platoon. Never been he hesitant or questioning his captain's order. Be it to ganging up on people that pissed his captain off or make him a breakfast.
Like now, he's awkwardly standing aside holding a tray of special breakfast for his dearest Captain but his captain is nowhere to be found, or rather his captain doesn't answering his knock at all.
"Captain?!" Adair called once more again. It's been the 34th times... His captain can't be overslept. The sun has rise high up for his captain's avarage waking up time. Adair bitted his lips, he doesn't dare to open and barging into his captain's room unless he welcomed him in. He sighed and want to turn around before he jumped back, almost losing his grips on the tray when he saw a ghosly presence.
Knight Captain Cloud.
Adair let out a shaky breathe, "K-Knight Captain Cloud." He greeted respectfully.
"Sun... Has't come back yet." Cloud told him with a voice barely a whisper.
"Eh?" Adair make a noise of bewilderment but the light stepped captain has been nowhere to be seen.
"Captain isn't back yet? Where does he gone to? What about his breakfast? Why didn't he tell me? What's the problem this time? Since when? Wait, I sounds like Knight Captain Leaf" Adair murmured to himself.
"What about me?" a voice questioned suddenly. Adair turned around to see the ever gentle Leaf Knight.
"Ah, no. Never mind, Knight Captain Leaf." Adair shooks his head and smiled earnestly.
Leaf looked down to the breakfast Adair brought and smiled again, "Here to give your captain his breakfast?".
"Yes, but-"
"He didn't answer your knock?" Leaf cutted as like he knows the problem very well. Well, it was always been the problem but now...
"Um, no..." but it's too late as Leaf knocked on Sun's door.
"Sun!? Adair's here! Open the door please?!" Leaf knocked loudly but still in a proper tone.
"Wait, Knight Captain Leaf." Adair paused him, because his hands are occupied with the tray he could only relying on his voice.
"What is it?" Leaf turned to him and tilted his head.
"Captain wasn't in the room. Knight Captain Cloud said he hasn't back yet." Adair informed. Leaf's eyes widened in panic at the last sentence as he quickly spun the doorknob and open the door. He scanned the room and paled.
"He hasn't been here for at least since two days ago" Leaf concured.
"What?" Adair spurted. He didn't came to sent the breakfast yesterday, because his captain said he would be busy in the morning, and Adair also need to arrange the schedule for patrolling about the Death Knight that actually dare to slash his captain unfairly from behind. But this is ridiculous!
"Oh God of Light! Sun, where is he? Has he eaten yet? Where could he gone to for two days? It wouldn't be anywhere dangerous right? He won't go around to search for that Death Knight right?." Leaf rambled in worry.
"Wait, Death Knight?" Adair perked up. And realization dawned into him in horror.
Adair stopped dead in the track as he sees Knight Captain Blaze carrying a person with cloak and blood over him bridal style and frantically goes to the Sun Knight's room with equally frantic priests opened the door for him. That person had to be Adair's Captain right?.Adair hurriedly enter the room.
"What's happened?!" Adair questioned in alarm as he sees his captain being laid limply on his bed.
"Adair! Sun fainted!" Blaze frantically informed without thinking, his expression is one of those who can't said anything in panic aside the obvious fact.
'I can see that!' Adair thought.
"It seems like the Sun Knight lost too much blood." An elderly priest informed the clueless Holy Knights.
"Is he going to be okay?" Adair inquired in concern.
"Hm, he would be fine with a few days of complete rest. And as long as he woke up, he could recover well." the Priest said.
"What's happened!?" Leaf exclaimed suddenly as he entered the room and soon gasped seeing Sun's condition. "Sun!".
And soon the room is filling in with the other free of mission Twelve Holy Knights who want to see what's going on.
Leaf already fussing beside Sun as he gently strip off the bloody hood and gasped again to see the slowly healing sword wounds. "Where has he gone to?!" He cried out. Blaze paled, so it's Sun's blood after all.
Adair swiftly go into the bathroom to fetch a basin of water and several towels also a stool, and quickly back with the said items. Leaf took the basin of water and motioned Adair to let down the stool before putting the basin on the stool and take a towel, dumping it into the water while Adair stripped his Captain gently out of his bloody clothing.
This is the first time he saw his captain in such condition. Even after he got slashed in the back by the Death Knight he wasn't this ghastly pale. He looks unearthly pales now. It maked Adair tremble mentally.
Adair stood there blanked out in the entrance of his captain's room it's the third day his captain has been thoroughly unconscious and to his shock... His captain is nowhere to be seen.
Nonono, maybe his captain is in the bathroom. Adair had broke his self-rule of 'not come barging into the captain's room no matter what unless he said otherwise.' for these three days for the sake to just take a glance at his captain's condition. But where is he now?
He muttered his prays and apologize before stepping into the room and rounded the bed. Before come to the sudden conclusion. His captain is not here, he's gone. The beef jerky is gone, most likely his captain already conscious today.
Adair run across the bed and opened the closet then wants to crying but no tears come out. One of the cloak is gone! Adair facepalmed, but shut his mouth. His captain go without telling, there must be something important coming up. More over with those disgusting blasphemic rumours revolving around his dear captain, his captain must be coming up with a plan. Yes. Someone's gonna going down, those who spread the rumours will. If his captain miss them (which is very unlikely), Adair's the one who's gonna get them.
He swiftly got out the room and shut the door quietly. And hurriedly go to the training ground where his platoon waiting for him for their captain's update.
Chapter 1 end! Yes, it would be a series with multi chapters. There's no way I could write Adair's POV in the entire novel in one chapter, silly.
It sets in the first novel, which is revolving around the introduction and Sun's past relations with Ehem* Roland. Yeah, the novel where he actually passed out of blood lost.
I know it's short. But be patient, the next maybe longer
