Okay Chapter 6 sorry for the lack of update for a while Life got in the way. First, my word broke, on my old PC, and I've been having internet issues, so there's that as well as Christmas lead up got quite busy, so yeah but now that's over. I've nothing but time so yeah I'll do my best
Edit: The Author is quite busy with school and work, I am GrezzWizard, a friend of his and I will be helping him out with this chapter.
Fang sighed as he held his hand out to feel several drops of rain, he'd knew the rain was coming for a good time now, he'd looked for what his friend told him was a Inn, a place he could stay for a time if he had the coins, his hand darted for the pouch he'd been given, they said it had fifty something coins, he didn't remember the name of the currency, he looked at a sign nearby and managed to make out the name 'The Drunken Sailor Inn', he made a beeline for it as the rain began to pelt down even harder, he opened the door and was greeted by the foul smell of alcohol and vomit, and the odor of sweaty sailors, but at least it was dry, he didn't mind the heat, although he'd prefer the cold, he walked up to what he assumed was the bar, he was then greeted by a young boy,
"What can I get for ya sir"
"A room"
"Oh...you'll want to see mother then" he dashed behind a door, the sound of laughter and cheering echoed through the room, Fang sighed, although he was used to it because of the trip, he still didn't like the rowdy, drunken sailors screaming about some rowdy tale or something similar
"Something smells like wet dog" Fang tensed up at the voice form nearby, he pulled his hood further down, hoping no one would notice him, after a few minutes a woman stepped out from the door with the young boy from earlier, he points at Fang
"So your looking for a room?"
"Yes Miss, How much is one?" she had a quizzical look on her face
"Before that, May I know your name?"
"Pardon?" she sighed
"What's your name, friend?"
"Why should I tell you, I'm here and I'm offering money to stay"
"I make a habit of know the names of all the people who sleep under my roof, so a name or you can get out the door" Fang was surprised by this woman, there was a low murmur from nearby
"This guy causing ya trouble Marcie" several nearby sailor's stood up
"No, No its alright boys he's not from around here is all" Fang gave a long sigh
"Fine, I'm, F..." He paused, reluctant to share his true name "F..Fin, my name is Fin" she gave him a suspicious look
"Okay...Fin...how long will you be staying"
"Just the night" She gave him an odd look, before reaching down and grabbing a key
"Three coins, then" Fang reached into his coin pouch a placed three on the table, she passed him the key,
"Follow me, I'll take you to your room" Fang began to tail the Innkeeper, He was glad he'd found a place to stay, but at the same time anxious to leave, although her intentions seemed good, Fang made a habit of expecting the worse of people.
Somewhere near the border of Demacia and Noxus
Eminita walked with her hood down covering her face in shadows, her cloak covering her armored body. Her cat, Fate safely latched on her gloved arm, his claws slightly digging into her skin she didn't mind though, it was a good pain, it reminded her that she wasn't alone here, she reached the outskirts of the town, she stood still in the light of a lamp-post, she scanned her surroundings the buildings were of Noxain architecture, built with dark stones and grey scale titles, built to last, as most Noxian buildings were, she sighed as she thought about the relationship between Noxus and Demacia both peoples weren't all that different, their architecture was very similar, one of the only differences was the color of stone they would use, Demacian's would use brighter stone and titles, Noxus darker, there battle formations were near identical, one of the only differences was there form of government, for a large part of Noxus's history they'd been a Monarchy, there was a Noxian king, princes, queens and such, it had not always been a military state, Demacia is still a monarchy, however the people are placed with a caste system, if you were born into a farmers family, you had to be a farmer, a solider was the same, everyone had a place and they were happy for it, Noxus was the opposite they believed in strength above all, if a man born into the peasantry wanted to become a noble lord he could, provided he had the will to do it.
Eminita shook her head
"This is no time to be thinking about Politics, Eminita..."
"Nor talking to yourself"
She froze up as she heard a voice that was as soft as a whisper, yet it seemed so loud it would split mountains, she darted her head around as she searched for the source of the mysterious voice, only to be greeted by the dark silence that surrounded her, and the soothing sound of the rain gently patting down on her, she rubbed her eyes with her free hand, how much sleep had she gotten, she shrugged off her believed drowsiness, she was here for a reason she couldn't forget that, she sighed and left the light vanishing into shadow, there was much work to be done, and little time in which to do it.
Somewhere on a beach in Ionia
The soft sound of waves lapsing came to an abruptly sudden stop and the ship grinded to a halt, tilting slightly waking Ellanora from her slumber, she gave a long yawn and a stretch how long had she slept, more importantly where was she, she didn't recognize where she was never before had she seen sand so white, and a clear sky she looked up at the moon, it was full tonight, her eyes widened as her mind began to stir, she'd seen this before,
Flashback!
Ellanora gave a long deep sigh, breathing in the cool night air, the rain had stopped only recently, so the ground was still partially wet, the sound of revealing and joy behind her, she tilted her head upwards to see the moon, it was full tonight
"Ella...Ella are you out here?" she smiled she knew this voice, it was a kind familiar voice, one she had know for a very long time
"I'm over here" she called out, she heard the sound of his feet grow closer as he walked along the cool wet grass, Ellanora wore no shoes, she loved the feel of the wet grass on her feet
"There you are" he spoke as he came to her side "The boss is looking for you, he wants you to sing for the patrons" she sighed
"Must I?"
"Ella, you of all people should know that when you sing the whole world stops to listen" She smiled slightly, he wasn't wrong, she had sung multiple times, and each time she received a flurry of praise and admiration, she be lying if she said she didn't
"Oh okay, lets just hope no one proposes to me again" They both chuckled
"How many last time"
"Six, and only two of them weren't already married"
"Well, come on shouldn't keep them waiting"
Flashback ends
Ellanora snapped back to reality, her breath heavy, Her three friends rushed to her side
'is she alright?"
'yes, yes tell us is she okay?'
'we must know, we simply must know tell us?' she looked around to see them Charlotte, Oscar and Wolfgang, she gave a smile
'she smiles, she smiles!?'
'we have not see her smiles, in days?, years?'
'hooray, hooray, she smiles again!'
"Yes my friends, yes I'm fine now, matter of fact, I'm better then I've been in a long time"
'is she back?, She is Back!?'
'she must be if she is, if she smiles again"
'she smiles, she is back, no more jailbird we have our Ella back, we have her back!' she rose a smile across her face, at long last she was free, her mind was clear, yet something was wrong, it also seemed empty as if some one had gone through it and pick it clean, but just who would do that.
Meanwhile in the Institute of War.
Many of the summoners ran in terror at the sound of his wails
"NNNNOOOOOO!" Yorik lumbered forward, and entered Thresh's room
"What's wrong?" he spoke with a dull and uninterested voice, as Thresh paced back and forth
"She's gone...she's gone, how can she be gone?!"
"Whose gone?"
"Ella, Ellanora, My Bird, My Songbird is gone from her cage"
"Oh, you mean that little banshee you kept locked up?"
"Yes" He spat "The little Banshee I was keeping, I went to the Shadow Isles, to check up on her, but she wasn't in her cage. I thought she'd gotten out again, so I looked for her but she was nowhere to be found, she's gone, ... but where?"
Thresh rubbed his eyes, looks like he wasn't getting much sleep tonight.
At the City of Piltover, The Department of Police Force
Alden look through the Police Department's files to see if any information can be found on the criminal, Jinx. Any pattern that they missed out, any clue of her hideout. He signed, the same job... with the same objective. He was getting bored of it. Everyday, when can he have break from this routine? When will he get out? He close the file cabinet with a growl, frustration clearly visible on his face. No criminal is that good, not all evidence can be destroyed but what if it was tampered with? That the destroyed ruble of the building was the evidence? Bullet shell casings will have brand names unless they are handcrafted.
"What are you doing in here?" A switch was clicked and light flooded the small room. An officer standing at the doorway, a gun pointed at Alden's head.
"I was checking on the criminal records of Jinx, see if you missed anything"
"You need a warrant for that, sir. Who are you? and besides if the police can't find anything, what makes you think you can?"
Alden dash, kick under his feet and have his knife on his throat. He grab the officer's gun and pocket it in his jacket and introduce himself.
"I'm Alden and I am working with Caitlyn and Vi. They don't know I'm here but know that I'm on your side."
"Sorry, sir."
"Do you have any advise?"
"Not really sir but the only thing is that Jinx's crimes seems to be random"
Random? No criminal does things for nothing. So what was she doing? ...It was quite obvious. Alden got up to leave and make a note. He then went to the train station. He need to go and have a chat with the general of Noxus.
Meanwhile back in Ionia
Andrew sighed as Zed finished his little speech, he knew this day would come, the day when they stop cleaning up his messes,
"You understand right?"
"Oh, of course my old friend, Of course"
"Very good" Zed seemed to be holding something back try as he might to hide it Andrew was able to see through it, he didn't press the issue he knew better
"Well" Andrew sprung up form his seat
"Thanks for at least telling me now I don't have to find out the hard way, See you round Zed" He spoke as he began to leave"
"Hey Andrew" Andrew stopped tilting his head back
"Yo?"
"Take care of yourself" he turned back
"You too"
sometime later
Zed walked in his breath heavy, Syndra appeared from the shadows
"Is it done?"
"Yes...It's done" Syndra chuckled
"Don't tell me you've formed a connection with that damned sociopath"
"And if I did, He save our lives more then once Syndra, are you sure this is what's best, and he wasn't that bad...was he?"
"Absolutely, oh he'll be fine, stop worrying" she placed her hand on his shoulder in some form of comfort, Zed sighed
"Yeah, yeah your right he can take care of himself"
somewhere in the depth below Ionia
The light pierced, the veil of darkness, that had shrouded me for days, he was back, his vile tormentor, the daemon in human form
"AAAHHH hello again my friend, glad to see me again I see" The Figure laughed, the sound of dripping liquid echoing through the Stone halls,
"Drip, Drip, Drop, ah I love that sound" His laughter became higher pitched and quicker, I tried to lift my head, my arms stung no doubt infected now, due to the restraint's, barbed wire wrapped around his arm for three days now
"Ah I see your Chains have gotten a little...bloody" he took out a knife, with an ecstatic grin on his face, dragging it alone my flesh leaving a long trail of blood behind it, was it my turn would he be cut up into little pieces, like the others he'd made me watch, he cut them up sometimes, other he burnt them and sometimes he ate them while they were still alive
"Y-you si-sick f-f-freak"
"Oh come now don't be like that I thought we were friends" a genuine smile crossed his face
"Ah I know, do you want to know why I eat them, I bet you do" I didn't need to guess I knew I'd seen what he really looks like, the scales, the teeth, his...eyes his horrid burning red eyes, he was a daemon he needed flesh to live that's what I believed, that's why he ate them
"B-B-Because you're a Daemon" he made a loud buzz noise
"Wrong answer, sorry, you do not take home any prizes, no rewards, no living for you" he gave a maniacal laugh
"In truth, I don't need to, here let me tell you" he came closer up to my ear
"I do it because it tastes nice, because never before have I tasted something so Magnificent then Human Flesh, so soft and chewy, supple and savory, then again my descriptions do it no justice, so tell me how does it taste?"
My eye's widened w-what was he talking about h-how would I know what it taste like, unless...wait...the...the meals...I found it strange at first... raw meat for those he kidnapped, there were those it drove mad, they started muttering and became jumpy as hell, some even went so far as to bite others, I'd been here for weeks and in that time five of them turned out like this, he dragged them away, I'd always thought he killed them, but now, my empty stomach lurched, had he given them, had he fed me my... my mouth fell open in terror
"Ah now he gets it, I do so hope you enjoyed your wife , I went out of my way to prepare Her especially for you" he pointed the knifes tip onto my nose
My stomach lurched but nothing came up, so I gagged, but wait my daughter what became of her
"M-My D-Daughter wh-wh-wh..."
"Oh don't worry, she fine better in fact, Cia, won't you come here" My eyes became wider as My D-daughter my little girl lumbered out of the darkness, her face covered in blood, her hair matted, her cloths torn and ragged
"Y-yes Andrew?"
"Are you hungry my dear?" she nodded her head, he pointed at me
"Well then dinners ready" her eye's widened as she lumbered forward, at first I thought she'd never do it, no never not my Cia, however her face was crazed her mouth gapping as saliva trickled down her chin
"So, ssoo, so hungry" she lumbered faster
"Is, is it soft, is it supple, is it chewy, is it tasty" tears rolled down my face as she drew closer
'C-Ca-Cia, w-what did he do to you?" her face changed for a second, but in that second I saw something in my daughters eyes, the Cia that was my daughter, my little baby girl, was dead, she died when she first ate that meat, to think I gave her my share so that she wouldn't starve, she turned and look at this 'Andrew'
"Go on my dear!?" she looked back at him, with a crazed smile, she opened her mouth and lurched forward digging her teeth into my neck, how it stung oh how it stung, she pulled up ripping flesh from my neck, Andrew stepped forward.
"Normally the humans teeth can't pierce flesh...But I did tenderize you quite well" My mind flashed back to the times he had done it, sometimes over a rack he stretch me, hang me over hot coals, Andrews face went blank for a second, as he began to swallow
"Actually, I'm quite hungry myself...Mind if I eat you" before Andrew bit into the other side of my neck he turned a light on, to reveal twenty or thirty others all well dressed women and men alike, watching as they ate me, now he understood, these were those he'd dragged off, he fed us human flesh and found those who wanted more...and he gave it to them, but their was something else all of them were smiling their teeth all...fangs, my eyes became heavier, as the blood flowed from my body, and so I was to die, not peacefully in my sleep, or surrounded by my loved ones, but being eaten alive by my own daughter.
