At this point, this FanFiction takes place in its own timeline, things are too different from the actual twokinds comic. All characters from twokinds is owned by Thomas Fischbach.
Keidran language will be italicized.
Also, this is the sequel to my previous fanfic "lost boy, new world". I know I said it would be soon and it's like 2 months. So sorry, hope you enjoy.
Bryan's POV:
It's getting dark. As the 3 of us are walking I realize that we haven't got his name yet. "I've been meaning to ask you, what's your name?"
"Oh, right, my name is Carl." He responded.
I confused, that name didn't seem like a keidran name. "Carl?"
He could tell I was confused. "I was taken away from my family at a young age. The people who owned me named me Carl. The name stuck with me, I kinda liked it. Then my brother… rescued me."
Oops, I could tell I hit a nerve. He sped up His pace to catch up with me.
"Is it true that you come from another world?" He looked at me with the most curious look.
"Yeah, it's true, I don't know how I traveled here."
"What is it like? Are there dragons? Other races?" He seemed like a child learning about something.
"No, there's no dragons, magic, or other races. We only have humans and our technology." His eyes sparked with wonder.
"What! Only humans? What kind of technology?"
As I was about to answer his question I was interrupted by Fauna. "Look! There's a town nearby!" She points in the direction of the town.
"Finally a town." Then I see the posters on the walls. "Shit! The only way for you too to enter this town is if you pretend to be slaves." Both Fauna and Carl are afraid.
"What! No! No no no no no! I can't do that!" He screamed, he was petrified. He sat on the ground, face in his knees, breathing hard, I felt bad for him.
"It's going to be ok, we promise." Fauna went to his side to comfort him. It became apparent to me that he had PTSD from his years as a slave. He was too young, and must've been treated badly.
"We can go find another village if you'd like." I lay my hand in his back and try to comfort him.
Carl's POV:
I'm too scared. I'm can't be a slave again, I'm too scared to even pretend to be a slave.
"We can camp out here for the night if you'd like." Fauna said. Both of them at my side. Such kind people. They're willing to camp out just for me.
"No... it's fine." I wipe my tears. "I'll do it… I hope you can keep me safe." I stand up.
"I promise I'll keep you safe, and if this goes south, I have this to protect us." Bryan pulls out the strange weapon.
"All right then, I trust you." I extend my arms out.
Bryan's POV:
Fauna takes off her clothes to seem like a slave and Carl takes off his shirt. I put chains on their wrists. "I hope you guys are ready, try to keep a low profile and don't speak unless I tell you." You can see that Carl is still afraid. "It'll be alright, I promise. Anything I say that might seem hurtful isn't true, I wouldn't say something hurtful to you guys." And with that, we walk towards the gates of the town. There were two guards, one had armor and the other had a Templar robe.
"HALT! You there! Are those your slave?" A guard in metal armor says. He points at us.
"Yes! These are my slaves. I've chained these fuckers for a reason!" I yell back. I feel awful for calling them that.
"Don't take that tone with me! I'll have your tongue if you speak to me like that!" The guard yelled at me in an angry voice. As he walked towards me, someone intervened.
"For goodness sake private! Stand down and let them in already!" Said the guard with the Templar robe. The guards muttered and opened the gate.
As we were about to walk in, the Templar guy grabbed my arm. "Hold on young man. You should know that do not allow slaves to be outside unaccompanied by their masters, unless given a control collar."
"Yeah, thanks for that info." He lets go of my arm and we head off into the town. I noticed that this town is busy. A lot slaves here too. Lots of head were turning at us. I assumed it was because they noticed I was barefoot. I was wrong. A man came up to me and said-
"Such amazing slaves you have. The tiger girl has quite a nice stripe pattern on her and and well endowed figure." He's a pervert! "And the wolf boy has a strong physique, certainly will be useful." I could tell that Fauna and Carl are getting nervous, especially Carl. The man pulls out a bag of gold coins. "How much for them?"
"They're not for sale sir." I said firmly. He seemed to be disappointed.
"I insist! I'll pay the price!" He was getting angrier with every word.
"I said they're not for sale!" I said to his face and we walked away. We enter an inn. I walk up to the counter and ask- "how much for a room of three?"
The owner of the inn seemed confused. "I can get you a room, but your slave can sleep in a cage." He points to the left, and what I see is atrocious. There are keidran in cages, chained and cold.
"Absolutely not, I'm not going to leave them alone!"
The guy seemed to get interested. "Oh! I see, the tiger is a breeder. I have cages full of males ready to… heh… mate."
Hell no! "No, I'll just take a room for two and the keidran are staying with me!" The guy seemed to get suspicious when I said that. "Erm… because I don't trust others, someone might steal them."
"Oh, well in that case." He pulls out a key to a room. "A key for a room of two. Upstairs down the hall to the last left."
I grab the keys. "Thank you." We walk to our room. When we get there and get inside the room, they relaxed. I take off the chains. "There's only two beds, I'll sleep in the ground."
"Absolutely not, you and me can share a bed together, it's not the first time." Fauna said as she pulled me to the bed.
"Wait, are you two like… a thing?" Carl asked, confused and shocked.
"Well… yeah, we've been together for 4 months." I say.
"Oh! Well I'm not one to judge." Carl said and immediately fell into his bed and fell asleep.
"Hey Fauna, I'll be right back, I'm gonna get some more supplies." I say to her.
"Ok, be safe. I'll miss you." She said and went to sleep on her bed.
I grabbed the gun out of my backpack and put it into my pocket. I walked outside and into the nearest bar to get a drink. I sit down and order a drink. A beer.
"Your first time drinking?" Asked the bartender.
"Yeah." I drink the bottle whole, but caring about the taste. My first alcohol, never thought it'd be at 16 years old.
"THERE YOU ARE YOU LITTLE SHIT!" Yelled a familiar voice. "I'm done asking nicely, now give me your slaves!!"
The beer started to make me a little tipsy. "Fuck off asshole!" I yelled back. Almost immediately I was tackled to the ground by him. He started to beat down on me. I could feel myself drifting. I panicked and grabbed a beer bottle on the floor and shatter it across his face.
"AAAAAAAAAAH!! MY FACE!!" He screamed in pain and got off of me. People tried to intervene but he had a group of friends to keep them away from us. I get up and say-
"Fuck it!" He charges at me again. I pull out my gun and shoot his knee.
"AAAAAAAAH!! WHAT!!! AAAAH!!!" He falls to the ground and grabbed his knee in absolute pain. He's bleeding a lot of blood. I point the gun at his friends, and they ran away.
I grab another bottle of beer, place 5 gold coins on the counter to pay for the beer and the damages and walk away while he screams in pain.
Fauna's POV:
YAWN. I wake up from a good night sleep. And what I see shocks me. It's Bryan next to me in the bed with blood on his head and a bottle on the ground!
