ORPHEN:Retribution
Chapter 11
----------------------------------------------------
Orphen and friends had arrived at Herbody. It was a georgeous town but alittle perverted architectual wise. Different parts of the town were based on different parts of the human female body. It made Orphen sick to think that a man had actually done this. It was a repulsive idea. Kevin had the same thoughts as Orphen. This place was deranged. Brothels and Hotels Erotic lined the streets. Every store sold some kind of Lingerie. Kevin hoped to get out of this town as fast as he could. Majic was an awe. He had never seen so many beautiful women standing on one street corner. But they were selling themselves and Majic thought that as the lowest a woman could go. He hated the whole idea of prostitution. Cleo could swear she almost puked every five minutes in this town. She was a woman and watching other women do this kinda stuff brought shame upon what she was. To add on to it there was not a sensible dress store or jewelry store in all the town.
Kevin: Maybe we should just skip this town?
Orphen: I would be all for that, but it is late and we need rest.
Kevin: I doubt we'll get any rest in this place. The walls will be bumping all night. How could we sleep?
Orphen: Veil of Silence spell would help. So would busting down offending person's door and kicking ass of detesable man who would stoop so low.
Kevin: Yeah. But you might see something you don't wanna if you break the door down.
Orphen: Damn! You're right.
Cleo: So Veil of Silence it is then.
Kevin: Yeah. Me and Orphen will have to cast it on your rooms though. It would be too much strain for the two of you to keep it up all night.
Orphen: Yeah. Hope I can do it. If not I guess I could sleep at the next town.
Kevin: which is?
Orphen: Alenhatan.
Majic: Where Steph lives?
Orphen: Yep. We can swing by and see how Steph and Tim are doing.
Cleo: It is still freaky that Steph used to be Steven. A guy.
Orphen: I'll agree there.
Kevin: Used to be a guy!? Yuck!
Majic: (laughing) Yep. Was Orphen's partner for a while.
Orphen: Not that kinda partner! (hits Majic on head.)
Majic: Oww!
Kevin: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Cleo: Let's get a room now and rest. We gotta get out of this town before one of these losers mistake me for a prostitute.
Orphen: They only buy the pretty girls.
Cleo: And just what is that supposed to mean!
Kevin: Come on. Let's go already. The faster we get to sleep the faster we can wake and leave.
Majic: I agree.
Orphen: I've got no arguments. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
Orphen awoke at midnight for reasons he coud not guess. Since he was awake though he decided to get some coffee. He walked down stairs and to a table. A few minutes later a girl dressed in very few clothes came to him.
Waitress: Would you like something? or someone?
Orphen: Something. Coffee.
Waitress: Will that be all?
Orphen: Yes.
Waitress: One moment.
After waiting awhile the waitress started towards Orphen with a dish with a cup and a pot of coffee. As she neared Orphen, the saloon style doors swung open and a crying woman in a bikini came running through. Her tears stopped her from seeing so she ran into the waitress which threw the coffee pot in the air. Hot coffee spilled from the pot as it flew through the air. Orphen acted quickly and stood up with his hands raised.
Orphen: AS YOU WERE!
The coffee stopped in air and then flowed back into the coffee pot which floated safely down onto the tray. The pieces of the cup that had fallen off the tray and broke floated up and fit themselves back together before landing on the tray. The waitress was lifted from the ground and set standing with the tray in her hands. The bikini clad woman was lifted like the waitress and set at a booth sitting. With everything set into a safe place Orphen lowered his hands. The flow of time continued normally. The waitress was shocked to see Orphen's sorcery but calmed and lay the pot and cup on his table. After pouring a cup Orphen spotted the crying woman walking over to him.
Woman: Are you a sorcerer?
Orphen: Let's see. I have a tower of Fang medallion on. I just cast a spell to keep from getting burned by spilt coffee. And I am very moody. Yes I think I am a sorcerer.
Woman: Will you help me please? My children he has my children.
Orphen: Who? Who has your children. Listen Lady, Calm down then try to talk.
Woman: Ok..ok.. I am calm. I am Olga Ortuby. I came to this town just to pass through. But Baron Jun Hurty kidnapped my children and forced me to work as one of his...."girls". I want my children back so I can leave this place.
Orphen: What do your children look like?
Olga: My son, Marki, has brown hair and blue eyes. He is only 10. My daughter, Lyla has brownish blonde hair and brown eyes. She is 15. I fear he might be using her for his own desires. Please help them.
Orphen: Don't worry. There is a lake near here. Go there and wait for them.
Olga: Thank you, sir.
Orphen: Just doing what should be done. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
Orphen walked madly to the fence of the Baron's mansion.
Orphen: No sense in ringing the bell. Grant me power, Heat of FIRE!
Red searing rays of heat emitted from Orphen's hands. They attacked the gate mercilessly causing it to melt and pour to the ground as golden globs. With the gate gone Orphen continued to walk into the courtyard of the Baron's mansion. Orphen was suprised, he was expecting thugs what he met was a great gargoyle. It flew towards him expecting to ram him against the wall. Orphen waited until it was too close to stop then leaped high in the air and flipped over the beast. The gargoyle tried hard to stop but could not. It nailed the wall as Orphen hit the ground on the other side of it. Orphen turned quickly and Aimed his hands at the dazed monster.
Orphen: Light's Blade, Whom I do Release!
The purple blade jumped from Orphen's fingers and impaled the beast through its heart. The gargoyle exploded in a firery mess of entrails and green blood. Orphen just stood there as the green globs rained on his coat. He turned briskly and looked up the wall of the mansion. There was a window larger than all others right in the middle of the house. That was probably where Orphen's target was.
Orphen: Towers Of Heaven, That Dance Around Me!
In a purple flash Orphen was no longer on the ground but floating even with the large window. He raised his hands again.
Orphen: Feathers of Heaven!
Heavenly white feathers materialized and spun around Orphen's gloved hand. As he charged higher the number of the feathers increased as did the speed of their rotation. Finally satisfied Orphen let the feathers go. They floated as if of one mind onto the window. They stayed as if pasted to the outside of the window. Orphen spread his fingers wider.
Orphen: Explode!
One by one each of the feathers conbusted taking out parts of the window. After all had self-destructed the window in whole was gone. In a purple flash once again Orphen was out of the air and onto the floor of a grand bedroom. A large matress lay to his right. On it seemed to be a sleeping form. Orphen moved closer. Even at slumber the form wore regal robes and a crown of royalty. This was the Baron.
Orphen: (Whipering, Very demonic voice) Satan's Blade, That I do Carry!
A blue flat beam shone brightly from Orphen's first two fingers. He aimed the beam blade and waited. One breath from the baron. two. three. On the third breath Orphen slashed down with the blade. The blade of sorcery met no resistance from the baron's neck bones or spnal cord. It cleaved through in one slice. Blood poured from the opening where the head used to connect to the torso. It bathed the white silk sheets in its evil luminescence. Orphen's Job was done. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------
Olga looked back for the third time as she and her children walked away. He wasn't there just like the first two times, but just looking back to where he had been made her think of him. Her hero. She didn't know his name so she named him "Angel".
