A/N: Yeah, I know… The last chapter was just information on what FireLord was doing… I had to explain for this chapter… Anywayz, I dedicate this chapter to Navi, ShadowKat, and FireLord… Thanks ShadowKat for giving me all those reviews!!! K, well here's the next chapter…
Disclaimer: Sometimes, it is wise never to invite certain generals over to my house… because this particular general happened to burn my deed to Escaflowne, and guess what??? Now the previous owners claim ownership of it!!! Oh, well… I'll just try again for a multimillion dollar deal!!!
Chapter Fourteen: Board
She exited her room, and walked to her throne room… She sat down on the blood red throne. Just as she had gotten comfortable, Shadow Mistress entered.
"He is ready to enter, FireLord."
"Show him in."
Dilandau stalked into the chamber. "I demand that you dismiss that servant, NOW!!! Or, If you like, I can arrange for her burning at the stake!!!"
"What has she done?" She asked, a slight grin showing on her face. She leaned forward in her chair.
"That Mistress of the Shadows used her power over the shadows to trick me into thinking I was going up to your room, when really I was going down to the Guymelef Hanger!!! By the time I had figured it out, she had disappeared!! Obviously here!! I retraced my steps, and finally made it back to the entrance. I then followed the trail I first used to get here. I want her dismissed at once!" Dilandau almost screamed at her.
"Shadow, is this true?" FireLord said, her face turning to her assassin.
"Indeed it is, FireLord, though a bit embellished." Shadow Mistress replied.
"We will talk of this later, Shadow. You are dismissed for now." She told her. Shadow left the room. FireLord turned back to Dilandau. "Dilandau, I am sorry for that interruption. I will take the blame for this. My servant decided to do this to give me some time for your arrival. NOVEE!! Bring it in."
The door creaked open, and the giant spider entered carrying a huge table with a box upon it inside. NOVEE laid it down in front of FireLord's chair.
"FireLord." NOVEE hissed out. It's head bowed and NOVEE crawled out backwards through the door.
"Dilandau, I believe you know my servant, NOVEE. Yes, you did kill him when you first came, but I used the facilities Doinkirk left behind to bring him back." FireLord told the general. Dilandau just looked at the door the spider had exited, and shrugged.
"Why the table?" Was the question he asked.
FireLord smiled and opened the box. She pulled out some figurines. "Dilandau, this is a map of the lands of Zail. These figurines represent my soldiers. This spider is NOVEE. This hooded black figure is my assassin, Shadow Mistress. These two guymelef figurines, in red, are representations of my units, and these smaller red figurines of men, are my land troops. This Red Box here, at my tower, is a symbol of Doinkirk's machines… Now see these ones in green. Those 5 green guymelef on the edge of Zail are illustrations of the troops of Galken. As you can see, Dilandau, if Galken were to strike right now, the only things that stop her from crushing me are Shadow and NOVEE. Plus the ace up my sleeve, you. Dilandau Albatou, I would like you to take all of these that you need and destroy Galken. Hopefully, the attack BlackMage has spurred upon his own land, Trimu, will give us the advantage."
Dilandau looked at the board and grinned.
A/N: Yeah, that's Chapter Fourteen… NOVEE is back!!! I hope you're all glad about that… Yeah, I'm sorry Navi, that you are going to continue to be the spider… but at least you're a character, right? I trust that you all enjoyed this chapter… JA!!!
Note: Most signed in authors will sooner or later get to be a character if they review each chapter individually. Those who do not, will not be come characters. Furthermore, any author who does not review each chapter individually, no longer has a chapter dedicated to them. This is why I dedicate chapters to two people, that way if one decides to forget about reviewing each chapter, there is still someone to have the chapter dedicated to.
Further Note: Mr Chezzysnickers forgot to review each chapter. Therefore the previous chapter is no longer dedicated to her, until she has reviewed the chapters she missed.
