Chapter Two - Old Friends
Clicks upon a marble floor made their way towards two large oak doors. A messenger made his way down towards Lord Halen's throne chamber. Nodding to two uniformed soldiers standing outside the doors, signalng them to open the doors. Slowly they grabbed the two golden handles and pulled the massive doors opened.
There, in the distance was a huge throne which jewels and gems plastered on the arm rests and headrest. The throne was covered in a dark velvet covering that looked blood red in the right light.
Upon that throne sat Halen, basking in riches and all his glory. Cladded in the best fabric that he could find; wearing a lose silk ebony shirt, with tight ebony breeches. A midnight blue robe adorned his body making him seem god-like. A coal coloured circlet sat around his forehead clashing with his silver hair. Everything clashed against his white skin. Emerald eyes stared out in front of him. Arms rested upon gold armrests one handing streaking a head of ebony silk.
Rei sat at Halen's feet staring out with passion. He leaned into Halen's touch, basking in the strokes that he received. Driger laid on the side of Halen in a defensive position in case the worse were to happen. Driger looked over at Rei and a flash of pity flashed across his eyes, at the sight of Rei. He pitied him because he knew Rei loved Halen and would let Halen abuse him as soon as signs of night filled the sky.
Turning back he stared at the messenger that just rushed through the barely opened doors. "My lord, Lord Bryan of Winedor has arrived at your request. Shall I send him in?" Halen's eyes light with humour. His deep voice answered, " No need to. He has welcomed himself." He stared at the clocked figure push open the doors with what seemed little force. Upon his shoulder sat Falborg, loyal as ever. Lord Bryan marched up to Halen knocking the messenger out of his way who scrambled out of the chamber. Bryan came to a halt in front of Halen.
He pulled down his hood, and two silver moon eyes stared back at Halen with force. His eyes quickly moved to the figure on Halen's left. The beautiful creature was cladded in a lose white silk top, that was revealling. Lose white pants, loosely clung to the neko-jin.
Bryan lifted his eyes back to meet Halen's frosty emerald ones. " Ah, Bryan so good of you to come. I wasn't expecting you, but it seems that the old man must have past way leaving you Lord of Winedor. I wonder why I was not informed of this news. Care to enlighten me?" Bryan smirked and replied, " Yes, I would but my affairs are mine. I would appreciate it if you would give your reason as to why you called me here. Certainly, there must be an urgent reason to call me here, and not one of the diplomatics. Am I right?" Halen's answer was a smirk.
Lifting his hand from Rei's head he stood up with Rei crawling in tow. Down the stairs he came to stand in front of Bryan; Rei seating himself at Halen's foot. Bryan stared down at the obedience that this creature had to a bastard like Halen. Turning back to Halen he sneered, " How obedient he his to you. Like a dog who's learned his lesson over and over. I'm surprised you don't have a leash around him." " Who needs a leash when they follow you around on their on free will. It's amazing what one such as him will do." Halen and Bryan continued to talk.
Finally they departed to more private chambers to discuss Bryan's reason of coming. Rei followed along, but was stopped and ordered to return to Halen's sleeping chamber and obediently went.
Falborg not wanting to listen to the drowning voice of Halen flew back over to Driger and seated himself on an armrest even though it was forbidden for any creature to sit upon another's throne unless they were given it. Driger looked up at Falborg and sat up stretching in the process. He yawned showing the five inch canine teeth.
Turning to face Falborg he greeted him with a short nod, showing that he was listening. Falborg flapped his golden wings before turning to Driger. " That little one seems in a trance to your Lord." " That lord is no more than a slave driver. The bastard has Rei tied around his fingers. He has led Rei into the depths of his black heart and soul. He has only one need for him. Rei on the other hand sadly has his heart out to that greedy manipulating pig." "Such words for such a royal and humble creature. When I last saw you, you scowled at anything uncouth I said. May I ask why the change, or should I believe that actions speak for themselves?" " You would be right too, if it were that reason. Sadly Halen's castle walls are threaded with darkness. That little one has been captured by them. My place is now a low pet, and that neko-jin is my cub." Driger lowered his head in shame not wanting his friend to see.
" I understand your reasons. If I were you I would chew that Halen a few times and then spit him out. He doesn't look that tasty anyway." Falborg joked. Driger raised his head, eyes filled with sadness. " I would but Rei, well , you know. I would gladly slay Halen, and lose my life to free Rei from this hell." Falborg saw the sadness and regret in Driger's eyes .
Not liking the look of his dear friend he leaped onto Driger's head, tugging at a black ear. "Well, dremsi[1] shall we go explore and eavesdrop on what our masters are saying, or are you not into that kind of childish acts anymore." Unprepared for the white tigers mood change he didn't notice the clay that came at him and swiped at him pinning his to the ground.
Furiously he flapped his golden wings, playing long with Driger. " Now I'm not that old. Those games are still fun to do and so is this." Quickly Driger leaned down towards Falborg and licked him, making gilt feathers' ruffled and stick up. He released his hold on Falborg before leaping off the mount and onto the alabaster marble floor, trotting along to the door.
" Stupid feline." muttered Falborg, before rolling back on to his feet and flying over to Driger perching himself on Driger's head. Driger shook his head trying to get Falborg off, with no success. He sighed and said, " You are really lazy. I noticed that you let your master carry you around. Seems you have stripped yourself of dignity. Since when does a servant let his master carry him around." Falborg tugged at roughly at Driger's ear, before saying, " I have not lost my dignity, and besides my master gives me liberty to do so." "How the two of you live together, will always remain a mystery to me." Said Driger quieting his voice as they neared the conference room that Bryan and Halen were. " I suppose, but Bryan seems more content with those who are opposite to what he is." Whispered Falborg. "Can't say the same for Halen." Said Driger before becoming silent.
On the other side of the door, voice could be heard. Calm yet venom hidden behind each word. " Urgh, his voice makes me want to roll over and die. How pathetic this is no fun let's...." drowned off Falborg, suddenly seeming interested in something in the distance. "What is it...oh..." Driger said looking at what had captured Falborg's interest.
Down the hall, appeared a little speck from a human's prospective, but really it was a little mouse. Driger quietly rose and slunk over to the mouse, Falborg took off into the air. Driger pulled back and leapt for it, catching the mouse that noticed last moment.
Covering it with his paws, Driger let it scurry around before covering his paws over it again. Falborg landed and stared at the mouse. He looked at Driger and then back at the mouse. "You thinking what I'm thinking?" " Yes. You mouse! Do you want life or death?" The little mouse spoke up in a squeaky voice, " Life, sir." Driger tormented the mouse a little more, by not answering. " Well then we have a job for you. That room that has Lord Halen in it. We want you to go in there and listen. Tell us what you hear. Understand?" Golden eyes bore into the tiny black eyes of the mouse. " Yes sir."
The mouse scurried over to a crack in the hall. " Still picking on those smaller than you. Shame Driger, such shame. I always liked that about you." "Enough, I have other things to deal with. I will see you later." Driger said before standing up and walking away from Falborg. Falborg stared at Driger before taking off down another corridor. ' I wonder what that wolf is up to? Hopefully he won't mind a visit.' Thought Falborg.
