Chapter 5
"You incompetent fool!" A man got thrown back up against the stone wall. The whole structure rumbled as he slammed against the icy floor; Sparks of blue lightning splashed around his body and crackled through the extended hallways.
The man forced himself to his feet as blood dripped from the gash over his left eye. "I'm sorry Lord Garoon; I thought you must know what I witnessed." A tall man hidden in the shadow with a dim torch lighting his full figure was before the trembling person. His eyes glowed purple with rage as blue lightning circled around him.
"You better have a good story to tell me or I'll gladly kill you very slowly." His voice echoed through the air and into the man's soul. He flinched in terror as blood dripped into his eye. Without caring, he quickly bowed to one knee and lowered his head. He took a deep breath and blew it out with his nerves state.
"Lord Garoon I am first Captain of the assassination squad B, I've come to report the resent attack upon Fei and the disturbance afterwards." Lord Garoon crossed his arms and glared at the little man. "Go on." The captain swallowed a lump in his throat and took a deep breath. "When we attacked she killed my first class scout. Then she ran from us afterward."
Lord Garoon stood motionless and silent. The captain started shacked still staring at the ground. A drip of red sweat hit the ground as he blinked hard. "When we finally caught up to her, she well umm..." He went silent and swallowed a lump in his throat. Sweat kept dripping down making a puddle near his hand. Lord Garoon growled when the Captain didn't continue speaking.
The Captain yelped and shook faster. "You see my Lord she went into the Forbidden Cave. We all didn't go in because we knew who laid asleep inside. So we waited because we knew this was also the only exit." He wiped some of the sweat on his face and swallowed once more.
"My Lord after awhile we felt the ground start to tremor. It wasn't fierce but it jerked us around a bit. Then after awhile it began to quake ferociously. We heard a crackling noise like glass being shattered in the depths of the cave. So we decided to make haste into its dark interior. It was terrible my Lord, cause when we got down there we saw Mistress Fei being over powered by him. He had his body well umm, he was seducing her.
Lord Garoon slowly unfolded his arms. He walked towards the Captain; His cape flowing behind his like a deep resonating wind. "Rise Captain." The Captain rose and saw the Lord in front of him. He had black armor that went from neck to foot. It was metal and shaped his body. A black cape which was red in the inside looked like fine silk, with a guard holding his cape up at the shoulders. A purple gem hung from his neck on a chain that reached the middle of his chest. A black Tiara with another purple gem was above his eyes. His eyes weren't glowing purple like before, but they were a silver misty color. His hair was long with short spiked bangs. His hair went down to the bottom of his tail bone and created a V-shape. It was silky and shiny with purple streaks.
"Tell me Captain. Who was on the top of Lady Fei?" The Captain started to sweat uncontrollably as it poured into his eyes with the blood from his wound. "My Lord it was the Ancient Wizard. He was out of his seal and he looked to be in perfect condition. I didn't know what to do so I came here to tell you. My Lord he looked as if he was going to take Miss Fei."
Garoon walked away and sat on his thrown. He was engulfed by the darkness and his eyes glowed purple once again. The Captain only saw his purple gaze that was transfixed upon him. "You can leave Captain." The Captain saluted and bowed as he walked near the grand door. He let out a huge breath when he stepped in the doorway and into the hallway. The marble floors glistened as far as he could see; as the glass pillars shimmered with his reflection.
"Oh and Captain." The hair on his neck stiffened as he slowly turned his body and saluted. Garoon's voice still echoed through the monstrous hallway. "Yes my Lord?" His voice squeaked as he trembled. "Tell Lady Neilo I send my gratitude to her. It was most intriguing to know she will bring Lady Fei to me since I knew you would fail." The Captain lowered his arm and his eye brow lifted. "Lord Garoon please don't feel that I am judging your word, but you knew my squad would fail?"
Lord Garoon let out a deep passionate laugh. "Captain I just used you as bait. I knew you would fail the whole time." The Captain's cheeks flushed with heat of his knowledge of being used. "Lord Garoon why would you use us like that?" Garoon smirked as he waved his hand in the air. "Well you see Captain; I used you so a Lyrie could get Fei for me."
The Captain nearly toppled over in shock from the news he just heard. Sharp tingles went through his whole body. He saluted and straightened. "Thank you my lord. I'll tell Lady Neilo your gratitude." As Garoon waved him away he walked around the corner out to Garoon's room. He panted and collapsed on the floor. Sweat and blood rolled down his face and into his stained eyes. He carefully pushed himself up and leaned against the wall. "A Lyrie! What evil has this world been brought into!?"
