Heyo, This is my first story that I'm posting on FanFic. I have about 3 more OBLIVION dark brotherhood stories that I have, about 19 chapters long. They all kind of tie together with the same chara, so just kinda keep an eye out for "Fox."
"...This is why the sanctuary requires a..purification..as we call it. Something of the sort has not been performed in many years, and hopefully will not occur any time in the near future afterwards." Concluded Lucien Lachance, studying his Silencer's face for a reaction.
Fox sat there staring at him, an almost stupified look holding her features. "You...want me to kill..you want me to systematically kill off all the members of the Cheydinhal Sanctuary?!" She exclaimed, trying to regain her composure.
Sighing, the speaker gave a nod. "Yes, technically, that is what needs to be done."
"...But, Vicente..He's..By sithis, Lucien he's like a father to you!" She said, protesting in a desperate manner. Though as the words escaped her mouth she knew they were unneeded, and regretted them. He was already taking this hard enough. A pang of sympathy rang through her body.."I..I'm sorry, speaker...I.."
Holding his head in one hand, he dismissed the outburst with a wave and sighed. "I know, Red. But it must be done. You are the only one above suspicion, as the treachery was traced back to some time before you even realized we existed. I am counting on you. And you must realize, you cannot inform or warn any member about the purification...Doing so could cost you dearly."
The Imperial winced as he called her by the nickname he had come up with some time ago, 'Red.' It was a play on her name, DelusionalFox, going by the well known Red Fox species. It was quite ironic, really, given she was of the Imperial race. "Damn, Lucien..I don't know if I can do this.."
"I know it will be hard, but..Just try and close your eyes and imagine Amadus Philida all over again. It should make it easier." He replied, attempting to reassure her but admittedly failing to do so.
Nodding curtly, she rose out of her chair and brushed some dirt off of her dark brotherhood armor. "I should probably be going, so the damn black hand can be appeased, along with sithis."
He offered her a thin smile before dismissing her to her duties. Under normal circumstances, the Imperial would've been lectured on the fact that she needed to respect her superiors, but he had felt it wasn't a good time. Now that she was gone, he openly let tears slide down his cheeks and awaited the news of his mentor's doom.
Sorry this was such a short chapter you guys, I promise the ones to come will be longer! All of my chapters are prewritten.
