Thee Invitation.
"A Vampire?"
"Please don't think i'm insane!"
Duo looked at the boy who was plainly upset. "I do, boy.. C'mon let's get you home." The blonde followed him, a bit shaken, "Thank you, sir." Duo smiled as him while tying up the man and stopping his bleeding. "Nooooo, problem.. Hey, you're from the North, ehh?" The blonde blinked at him in confusion before his brain kicked back in, "Oh, yes, i'm sorry.."
"Well he's tied up good.. C'mon, tell me where ya' live." Duo and the boy walked across the grassy fields as they saw a house in the distance. "There!" The boy pointed and shouted with joy. "Will you be all right goin' in there on your own? Its about fifty yards away.." Duo asked, the boy nodded with a bright smile. "Yes! Thank you so much sir!"
"Heh, goodbye." Duo smiled and waved before turning away. Dawn was on the eastern horizon, with her soft pastels and the dying twinkles of the stars. The moon was so small and dying out. Duo smiled and walked through the back door of the mansion.
"Hilde? I must speak with you."
"Yes, Duo."
Hilde walked down the stairs, standing on the last step as Duo placed his left arm on top of the white polished bannister. "You have to follow me.." A few moments later Duo had led Hilde to the man from that night. Hilde gasped, on the way there Duo had filled in what happened last night. "What was the boy's name?" Hilde asked slowly circling the tied up man.
"Oh.. I didn't ask!" Duo grew a bit nervous.
"You didn't ask!?"
"Heheheh..."
By late morning police had arrested the man and Duo told of his story again. "Duo, you look tired why don't you rest today, you've been up all night." She placed her hand on his shoulder. Duo shot a smile at her as it was plain as day, that he was tired. "Thank you, Hilde."
Duo slept through lunch and he didn't hear the knock on the front door.
"Hello?"
A black woman answered as a blonde boy stood in fine clothing. "Good day!" He bowed slightly as the woman did a small curtesy. "I am Quatre Rabera, and I have come to seek the owner of this plantation?" The woman was dressed in a plain gray dress that covered her feet, with a white bonnet and apron.
"Yessir' follow me.."
She led Quatre into the blue and white living room. It had a large fireplace, cabinets of statues and imported wines. Smooth hand crafted brown oak wood chairs and flowy white curtains. He held his top hat as he seated himself gazing at the pictures and paintings. "Hello!" Quatre turned to the heavy voice as a big husky build man walked into the room. "Hello sir." The man sat across from Quatre, but a young woman walked in as well.
"Ma'am." Quatre quickly stood up giving a slight bow, "Greetings, Mr. Rabera." Hilde's father poured a glass of wine getting Quatre's attention once more. "What can I do for you?"
"Well sir, last night I was attacked in a desolate field.. But I was spared by a man... I am looking for this man and I want to show him my gratitude." Hilde gasped, did Duo save the one of the grandsons of, Rabera!?
The Rabera's, a rich family from the north were having many family disputes. For years one of the many children of that family named Quatre Rabera, a bastard son born without a father. However his grandfather took he and his mother in. The old man would soon have to name an heir for his business and money in which he earned. And that heir was Quatre.
"Do you know something, Hidle?"
Her father asked, "Did this man have a very long braid? About down to his knees?" Quatre's face lit up as did a broad smile, "Yes! Is he here?" Hilde smiled and rushed out the room. "Duo! Duo! Open up!" Impatience and not thinking Hilde open Duo's door and walked in... She gasped again as Duo stood next to his bed simply staring at her.
Hilde's brain was in complete shut down before she turned and slammed the door behind her. The imagine of which she saw was Duo standing completely nude with his pants half way on but his flowing thick hair had 'covered' him. Hilde blushed trying to regain herself as guilt and embarrassment set in.
"You wanted to see me?"
Duo asked standing in the doorway as Hilde stared at the floor. "Forgive me... I.. I was excited to.. Tell you the news..." Duo opened the door more with his hair loose and all over his shoulders and chest. "Hmm? What news?"
"The boy you saved.. Is here.. Quatre Rabera..."
Duo grew surprised as he ran across the room and gathered a clean shirt. "I'll be there shortly, Hilde! And don't worry about barging in my room, its all right.."
Hilde jerked herself to nod and close the door.. A few moments later Duo was dressed and his hair wasn't in a braid nor ponytail, it was held by a clasp in the back. "Hello again!" Quatre heard Duo's greeting and hugged him tightly, for a boy he had strength.
"So glad to see you once more on a more joyous occasion.. To show my complete gratitude to you, will you please come have dinner at my home? You may bring anyone you like!"
Duo was surprised and grinned, "Tonight? Anything? Well sure! But I don't have a suit-- No need! It is quite all right!" Quatre cut him off as he smiled. "Hidle, would you like to come?"
"Why I be more than happy to attend."
"Come, in my carriage by the time we get there it will be dusk."
The trio all went into the carriage talking and laughing all the way to Quatre's mansion.. But inside that mansion a dark figured looked out the window carefully and watched the carriage enter.. "My Quatre has guests.. I think i'll meet them.." He smirked as his green eyes flicked red..
