A New Begining
By: Hyper Mage
Ok, so, I think I finnally have an ending for this, 'cause I can't stand now leaving something unfinsihed, plus, I wanna start workig on the next part of this little story thingie whatcha macall it.
Tears pour from Baryl's eyes, he packed his things silently, or what was left of it. What had started as a day of mending old wounds, only opened new ones. Baryl looked back to his beloved town once more, what was once a beautiful country town had turned into an inferno, every building ablaze as many ran out of their homes, carrying anything that was not being consumed by flames. His mother had already gone under the billows of smoke, there was nothing to keep him there anymore.
~Earlier that day~
Baryl had gotten up early to patch up his wounds with his mom. He had fretted over what to do the whole night, coming to the conclusion that his mother had done the right thing, to try to keep him from the rogue's. But she also must have figured out that it would be impossible to keep him away from what was in his blood.
Rebecca looked at Baryl as he came into the kitchen. Baryl moved forward, to give her a tight squeeze, Baryl could feel Rebecca's gasp of surprise.
"I don't care if you're not my real birth mother or not, You've taken care of me all these years, and I thank you." Rebecca gave a gasp and began to cry. This is what I was working all those years for, she thought.
Baryl enjoyed most of that day, hearing stories about the old court, how tricky his father was, and how Rebecca had fallen for him.
"But, whose in charge now?" Rebecca look at Baryl, and looked down.
"The man who killed your father of course. He always wanted the throne, but he does no good to his people, and he wants you, He almost had you until your father saved you."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, youre birth mother thought that Nathan, the king, was your real father, and left you in his care as he beat her to death, strange woman though I never met her.
"Then your father braved going into a place where he would meet certain death to save you. As he got back into the Dancing Dove, he was killed inside and left you in my care."
"Is that how I came to you?" Baryl asked quietly.
"That's exactly how you came to me." There was a knock at the door. Baryl excused himself, not wanting her mom to talk to one of the nosy neighbors. As he opened the door where a man stood watching him.
"Ah, my dear Baryl, you've grown so much, I never thought you would have turned out into such a great lad. Now Rebecca darling I-" Baryl eyes darted from his mother to the man at the door. A well kept man, with a smile bright, opposite to Rebecca's, whose lips where so thin it was a mere line.
"DON'T YOU REBECCA ME NOTHIN' NATHAN, GET YOUR ASS OUT OF MY HOUSE!" Rebecca was in obvious discomfort, having Nathan there, but Nathan kept his smile pretty, sweet, and menacing.
"Now, Rebecca darling, I don't think you see the seriousness of the situation, the way I see it, you either give in, or die."
"I'd rather die." Baryl saw something flick into his mother's hand. It was obviously a knife hidden in her clothes. Nathan was oblivious to the fact that she was armed and he wasn't yet.
"That can be arranged." Rebecca knew she could never be a match to Nathan, but she never realized that she was better then she thought. Her first knife landed right on his right shoulder, imoblilizing(sp?) his best throwing hand. As she was flickering her next knife, he hit her right on her left leg, his aiming a little off. She winced and screamed Nathan took his chance and ran towards her, eyes ablaze he cut through her belly. Then Nathan turned his attention to Baryl as Rebecca stared horrfied at him(Baryl), she mouthed the word run as she fell to the floor.
"Now son, you do realize that you always belong to me, since it was I who your real mother had entitled the care too." Nathan said with a smile on his face. "You belong to me, come be my successor, you'll have beautiful women around you, and all the power of the underworld.." Baryl snapped back to reality, plans formulating in his mind, run being the first one. Rebecca had left him a bit banged up. Baryl planned a bit more, then decided to take his mother's advice. Using the same trick Nathan had done on his mother, only higher, he slashed deeply into Nathan's face, leaving a big gash.
As he ran out the door, he noticed something diffrent in his home town. Everyone was running around screaming, many young women had been taken up on horses, kicking and punching where they could. He decided to help some of them out, he quickly took out his remianing knife out and killed someone who was picking up a young brunette.But then, something strange started happening. The townhall started burning. And the builings along there started going down too. He quickly looked around for Nathan, and realized he had left when the buildings started going ablaze.He started to make his way back to his home, which has in the outskirts of town, and then something struck his shoulder.Creature. He petted his cat and ran into his home. He looked at the body of his mother, something was missing.
"Her necklace, that bloddy Nathan took her necklace." He ran up into his room and put everything in a bag. Creature waited for him by the window. He jumped down grracefully, Baryl looked back and turned. I'm alone, completely alone now. he thought.
YAY!! ending dammit, that's beautiful!!! Now I have 2 ppl done, 2 to go!!! Wonderfully juicy.
