The Sorrows from Within
" How come you like black so much?" Van asked wanting to know why this young girl had sucked the color out of her clothing.
" My father use to say that you should wear what you feel, it would get the message through to people that your personality would not." Hope explained.
" Oh, ok" Van agreed, not knowing what to say to that.
Chapter 11: Day without relief.
~* Dilandau's thoughts*~
' Why, why did I be so weak, I couldn't even keep that girl under control' Dilandau mentally kicked himself.
A slow knock came at the large doors.
" Come in" Dilandau practically yelled.
The door opened and a soldier walked in, he looked more like a boy, yet the stern look upon his face told that he had more history in him than his looks showed.
" What do you want?" Dilandau stared at the boy, daring him to answer incorrectly.
" Lord Dilandau it's a message from Folken." The boy walked up and knelt on one knee, holding out the message.
Dilandau grabbed the letter out of the young mans hands like a young child with candy. He read:
Dear Dilandau:
I've heard of your mishap with Hope, also with
the attack with the king of Fanelia.
I hope that you didn't make to much
of a fool of yourself. I also hope that
you didn't give away to much of our plans.
We do not need another mix up with this family,
and this generation. Don't screw up again!
Folken.
" Damn it!!!" Dilandau bursts out. Dilandau looked at the young messanger, all he seen was Folken staring at him making him look weak.
As soon as he felt the slightest bit weak, he felt that he had to prove his strength.
~* With Van*~
Van walked down the hall way, Hope followed him a few feet behind him. His eyes constantly glancing towards the young girl behind him. Allen saw the two walking towards the main hall, so he thought he would intercept them.
" Hey Van," Allen shouted.
" Hey Allen, what are you doing up this early?" Van asked, wanting to know why his friend was up walking around.
" Im just walking around, nothing major," Allen said looking Hope up and down." So what are you doing with her?" A stone hard gaze was put onto Hope, as her head lowered.
" Im taking her to talk with the advisors." Van changed his tone of voice showing Hope he didn't mean it but enough to make his point.
" I see, well I'll tag along if you don't mind" The blond knight asked innocently.
" well, the advisors wish to speak with us alone" The king said with a soft stern voice.
" All right, well I will be with the soldiers, giving them a few tips on swordsmenship." the tall man walked in the opposite direction.
" Ok, well I'll se you later." Van said opening the large oak doors.
~* Allen's thoughts*~
'I wonder why the advisers would want to talk to the girl, there seems to be nothing special about her.' Allen thought to himself.
He thought about how the girl looked, she was young but she looked like she had a few tricks up her sleeve.
~* With the advisors*~
There was a large rectangular table that was the length of the room, there sat 6 advisors, 2 women and 4 men. They were dressed to impress there leader, but their pushiness did not help the picture it made of them. Van walked to the head of the table while hope stayed by the end. She kneeled down on one knee and bowed her head in respect.
" My dear child please remove your knee from the floor, this is the royal court room, there is no need for formalities in forms as these in these circumstances." A woman with a large staff spoke loudly. Hope knew this was not how every one in the room felt, she could see it in there eyes.
" Thank you very much, I am trying to show my appreciation for the kindness and the understanding I have been shown in the short time I have been here." Hope again bowed.
" You are a guest in the palace, and a friend of the kings, you should have been shown a great deal more understanding then you have." Another advisor spoke out.
Hope didn't know what to say, she had been shown a great deal of gentleness from the people here, exceptions of the blonde knight. She knew that he did not trust her, but she could deal with that.
The silence protruded through the walls and the slightest sound echoed through the ears of the superior beings.
" We are here to discuss the matters of which the king has brought to our attention." A scruffy old man stood up and leaned on a old cane for support.
" May I ask a question, if it wouldn't bother the advisors?" hope wondered.
" You may," The first woman than made her presence known spoke.
" I just wanted to know, I have only been here for a few days, and I am already been called here to a meeting with the court, what would these matters have to do with me?" She asked knowing that she may not get an answer.
"Well with our sources, we have been told that you were being held captive in the Zibach empire, is this correct?" A strong commanding voice escalated through the room.
" Yes that is correct," Hope stated.
" We have known that the Zibach empire has wanted to take over the world of Geae, and now we know that you have came to use from the mystic moon. Well the last being to come from the mystic moon had a purpose here, and now we need to know yours." The scruffy man again addressed the gothic girl.
" All right, but I don't know why im here, I have no special gift, and I have no knowledge of war tactics or fighting skills. That is why I am puzzled of the purpose of me being here. I will help Fanalia all that I can, since it has shown he such kindness, but im not sure of what limits it gives me. But if you ask me to confide in your country and your leader I will." Hope spoke with pride, although her voice was strung with less self confidence than a small animal would have.
" I am glad of your commitment to our country even though you have only been here for a short while. We would like to conduct the rest of the meeting with the king, you are able to walk around the castle and any where you would like to be, but we would like for you to be escorted so you don't loose your way." The final woman spoke loudly.
" I thank you again, and an escort would be much appreciated." Hope bowed.
One of the advisors called for the guard, then told the guard to fetch Robin.
When the guard returned, he was accompanied by a young boy, hope's age. He had short blonde hair, and the most beautiful eyes Hope had seen. They were a light brown with small strips of green entwined.
" This is Robin," The guard pointed to the young lad. " Robin, you are to escort this young woman around the castle until the king is not occupied." The guard moved Robin to Hope's side.
" I am Robin," He knelt down and kissed Hope's hand. " And you are?" He asked wanting to know who the lovely girl that stood before him was.
" I am known as Hope, and it is very nice to meet you Robin." Hope said and flashed a small smile towards him.
" Well it is an honor to get to know you lady Hope." Robin said, as he watched the color in Hopes fade grow to a deep red.
Hope and Robin left the court room and so they began their journey.
