1 Part 12
The three of them stood outside of Hart's study. She pushed the door open and saw Hart preparing to leave.
"Dad, where are you going?" Playing the concerned daughter act. Hart had all his personal belongs in a bag but he seemed to be waiting for something.
"Your to late. I have already told New Dawn that you don't really have the orphan fighter. That Alexis was only pretending. Jez blinked slowly at him, she knew very well that you couldn't hide something like that from Hunter, they must be trying to mislead him and apparently it was working a treat.
"So you were listening to us?" Jez accused. "Do you have no respect for your father?"
"Respect! You can not lecture me about respect, When have you ever respected me?" Hart said his voice gradually getting higher pitched as he went along. Jez winced slightly at the screech her father was making.
"If you were worthy of respect you would have had it." She responded tiredly, no daughter like to confront her father about being a traitor. "You can still do some good though, tell us all you know about New Dawn and Hunter will look favourably on it." Hart snarled at that.
" I will not tell him anything, the cause is more important than the individuals." She wondered how a vampire like this had survived so long in the world of darkness, surely if he was not Hunter's son he would have been killed a long time ago.
"Even the Wild Power's?" she asked, knowing that the question would hurt him, his daughter being one of them yet on the side of darkness. Hart looked positively sick.
"It's not to late you know. You can still join us. We would welcome you." He almost pleaded.
"I can never join you. I live for the dark." She said almost mournfully. " I wish it didn't have to end this way." With that Quin stepped through the open door. Hart paled, he had always been scared of Quin but now Hunter had removed his protection over him he was positively terrified. Quin wore a wild expression, he had longed for this for years. Now he had his chance.
"Hart, you have been very naughty. And Hunter has given me permission to dispose of you." He said in a singsong voice. With that Hart broke down.
"Please don't kill me, please." He said clutching at Quins feet. Quin kicked him away.
"You are pathetic, take it like a vampire."
"Please Jez, save me." He appealed to his daughter. She turned away from him, tears streaming down he face. She would not do anything to help him, but she couldn't stand to watch. Morgread came up to her and took her into his arms; she buried her face into his chest and sobbed.
There was a dull thud and a piecing scream.
"It's over," Morgread whispered. Jez raised her face but didn't turn round she would be able to cope with seeing her father dead, dried out like a Mummy. Morgread moved round slowly careful to keep the body obscured from Jez's view.
"Lets go." She said flatly. They made there was back to Hunter's office.
They entered the room; the charade was still going on. Lex's act brought a smile to Jez's face. She was on her knees in tears begging Ash to take her back.
"It's done." Quin told Hunter. Lex got up from her knees and turned to Rashel and laughed.
"What is going on?" Rashel asked.
" 'Do you have any ideas on the rest of the prophecy? But don't tell me the truth.' I quote, we were playing Hart, don't tell me you actually believed it." Lex Sneered at Rashel.
"Of course not." Rashel said trying to recover hr composure. But everyone in the room knew that she had believed every single word. Lex turned her attention to her friend.
//are you ok// she asked silently.
//it was hard, but I think ill be ok.// Jez replied. She snuggled closer to her soulmate, his presence giving her strength.
They would need all the strength they could muster for the up coming battles.
One from the mountains where the fire still burns strong;
One from the forests where the light can roam free;
One from the kingdom where darkness rules;
One from the wastelands where the beasts rule supreme.
