CHAPTER 4
"Yugo you can't be serious." Amalia said as she followed behind Yugo. The Eliatrope said nothing as he descended towards the dungeons, Amalia following close behind.
"Just because you 'sensed' something doesn't mean you need to come down here." Amalia grabbed ahold of Yugo's hand forcing him to stop. Yugo turned and Amalia continued. "I know that girl and the other three were here to kill me and if not that then capture me, so why not just leave them?"
Yugo watched as Amalia looked close to tears, since both her father and brother passed, forcing the title of queen to her shoulders, Amalia was never quite the same. Though she was still the Amalia he knew she had changed and that light she had in her eyes when thinking of adventure had all but vanished.
"You don't have to come down with me Amalia. I just" Yugo paused as he stared into the Sadida queen's scared eyes. With a sigh he finished "I just need to check something." Amalia slowly nodded and without another word followed behind Yugo to the cells.
...
*slide*
My ears strained, trying to pick up on the sound.
*slam*slide*slam*
The code was perceived and I listened for the next set.
*slam*slam*
I went over the pattern thus far. - my mind wracked for the meaning then caught ahold of the memory. I moved to the next set - * - this one came easier and by the third I was already able to guess what they were trying to 'say'.
*slam*slam*slam*
*slide*
*slam*slide*
*slide*slam*
I went over the patterns once again in my head, "Tristan". I smiled, to the guards or others within the dungeon it just sounded like someone trying to loosen or escape their chains, but to my and the other two it was a complete language.
I shifted trying to get comfortable but with my hands bound tightly behind my back it was slightly difficult. Once I was sitting up I sent back a reply.
"I'm fine."
Within seconds of the final pattern another message was already being sent back.
"Good, and ts-"
the reply was cut off as one of the Sadida guards must've caught on. "Hey knock it off, any more of that and I'll break your legs myself." We remained silent and and took the time to gaze around to the other cells.
At the front there were think bars constructed of thorned brambles and between each cell was a thick wall making it so I could not see who was next to my cell. However there was enough light to see that I was alone in the square cell. I sighed and tried to look into the other cells without falling completely over.
I tried to look in as many cells as I could, trying yo locate the others. After awhile the only one I could see was Aure and the only hint that I got was her messy and wild auburn hair and familiar blue clothes. From what I say other wise I could tell that she was still out cold which was understandable considering how much of a fight she had put up before when we were caught.
I look around again though this time in hopes of finding out the time, though not that it would matter, we had failed and by this point the ship would've left without its prisoner and without us. I laced back down and turned to my side, I tried to get comfortable with my hands tied firmly behind my back, though they were tied so tight I could barely move them as it was.
As I struggled for comfort the sound of a large heavy door opening in the distance had me struggling to sit up once again. After sitting up I watched as, in the distance I saw someone wearing an eared hat of an aqua color talking to one of the quards, the Sadida queen not far from him.
The guard, without looking over his shoulder, gestured in the general direction of my cell as well as others. I watched and the man and the queen walked along the path then stared as they stopped in front of my cell.
We didn't say anything for a few moments only stared, well in my case glared. It really didn't help the fact that the man was staring at me with such a disappointed look on his face. It gave me a weird feeling due to the fact that the only other looks I received were ones of; hate from those we stole from, enjoyment from my sister Colette and Aure, and looks that could kill we received from the captain.
I wanted to look away from the disappoint that was directed towards me but I found that I couldn't instead I continued to stare back with an odd feeling that the man's look was practically driving myself to feel something I didn't know I could feel.
Guilt.
I shuddered hating that feeling and tried hard to shake it off but as long at the man was looking at me with those eyes and that stare I couldn't help but feel that way. Even when I managed to look away the sense of his gaze on me still remained and almost seemed to intensify.
"I'm sorry your hands had to be tied behind you so tightly."
I looked to the voice the man was giving me a type of sad smile and the queen looked at him in shock.
"If you're anything like me, which I have no doubt that you aren't, it must really bug you being restrained like that."
Again I stared, what the heck was he talking about 'like him' from what I had seen I was nothing...like...hi-
My train of thought stopped and the man held out one of his hand which was now basked in a dim light blue aura, much like mine and Aure's got when we created our portals.
"You may not think it, or like to admit it, but you and your companions are far more similar to me and my brother then you think." I stared at him, what did he mean brother and how were Colette and Leala and thing like him or his brother? Then the door opened once again and the man the queen and I all looked to see who entered.
They were probably around the same age as the man standing before my cell though after that the similarities ceased. This new person had pale white skin and around his eyes and mouth was a light blue. Atop his head he had three horns one located near the front middle the other two closer to the back and to the sides. His clothes were around the same shades as the man's before my cell.
"Yugo, a guard told me everything." The newcomer said as he came to a stop next the the queen and man, whose name I now knew to be Yugo. The newcomer then turned to the cell.
"Yugo is this one of them?" I glared at the newcomer as they took in my appearance. "You don't think that he's?" The man named Yugo simply nodded. Suddenly the two males began talking about me as though I wasn't there.
"What do you think he and the others were trying to do?"
""They were odviously trying to kill me like they did to one of my maid's in waiting!"
"Amalia from what I heard it wasn't lethal and Renate would be fine in the next few days."
"Wait they did something to Renate?"
Yugo nodded "Yeah it seems like they used a non lethal dose of Devil Rose venom and we took another three off of them."
Adamai looked at me most likely not even noticing my glare then turned back to Yugo. "Do you have any idea what there plan was?"
"Do you even need to ask that?!" The queen yelled. "My quards stopped one of them from entering the throne room right before they came in and did the same to me that they did to Renate!"
"Well yeah but they must've had a reason for it."
"So killers have reasons to kill dozens of people!?" The queen at this point looked as though she wanted to kill someone herself, and the way she kept glaring at me didn't make me feel safe. "Yugo I don't care if you think the three of them are like you and Adamai, but they are deffinately not like you."
Now I was starting to get annoyed the three were talking as though I wasn't there and were talking about me and the other three as well. They continued back and forth not even realizing that I was slowly pushing myself from the ground,using the wall as leverage.
After getting to my feet I began making my way to the bars of the cell; still the three of them didn't take notice of my movements.
"Really? Has he even spoke yet? Can he even understand what we are saying?!"
I got to the bars of the cell and in one swift motion kicked them with all my strength, which resulted in a vibrations going up my legs and the three on the other side to jump back in surprise, the queen quickly getting behind Yugo and Adamai.
"I can understand you just fine you annoying self-centered witch!" I yelled letting my anger take control of me. "Now stop talking about me and my sisters as though I weren't here and stop claiming that I am like you in any way ,shape or form, cause we are nothing alike!"
The three of them stared at me from the otherside of the bars made of thick brambles as I was left trying to catch my breath. I glared at them happy to have gotten my point across but I was yelling at myself for have given in.
If I were back on the ship and had reacted that way during any sort of interagation, practise or otherwise, I would've been severely punished. I decided to tell the captain, if we ever got back to the ship to add "talking as though prisoner wasn't there" to the list of interagation methods.
The queen glared, Yugo looked at me with shock, while Adamai gazed at me with amusement.
"So which ones are your sisters?" Adamai asked as he stepped towards the bars of the cage.
I unconsciously took a step back, uncomfortable with the sudden closeness of the stranger. Nervously I said spoke, my voice failing at hidding just how nervous I was.
"A-as if I'd tell you anything." Adamai stepped back from the bars and turned back to Yugo and the queen. I was only barely able to pick up on what he had said.
"I don't know but I think it would help if we had them all together in a single room with only you and I Yugo."
A.N. So to clear something up right away. The *slam*/*slide* part was Morse code. I wasn't sure if it was clear or not so just to clear that up.
Ooh next chapter is the interagation of the four with Yugo and Adamai what will happen next... I truly don't know (just writing this as I go) .
Until Next time Peace Love and Virtual Hugs
