Chapter 5:
Four Princes
D and Sym entered the Sleeping Gardens and began to look around. All in all the small town looked like ancient china. It was truly a sight to see. After searching around for a bit the twins found the castle.
"We are here to see Empress Xie." D told the guard.
"Oh, who may I ask are you two?" the guard asked.
D was about to speak when he was interrupted by his brother.
"Tell her that the Forgotten Prince is here to see her?" Sym said looking over his sunglasses.
The guard shook his head before running off and telling Xie who was here.
Sym turned to his brother then, pushing up the sunglasses as he did so. "What?" he asked his brother as he saw the look on his face.
"I thought you hated that title?" D asked .
"I do, but it gets us in faster. I'm just as interested in this mystery as you are, D." the younger twin said.
D nodded his head knowing what his brother meant. This whole job was turning into a wild goose chase. First there was the matter of their father disappearing. It was very unlike him. Second was the fact of the matter of these 'misfit' vampires. They had both met Seal who seemed nice, as well as knew their father. But were the others like Seal himself? Third was the empress pet. This was truly a puzzle that the hunter needed some type of clue to help figure out.
The guard returned then and told the two hunters to entered. D and Sym entered and came face to face with Empress Xie who was yelling her head off.
"THAT VILLAIN! HOW COULD HE !" Xie yelled at no one.
"Empress" D stated.
The empress calmed down then. "It is a pleasure to meet you " she said indicating Sym. "And you are sir?" she said now indicating D.
"D." was the only answer he gave her.
The Empress smiled at D. Even though Xie could tell that they were beyond a fact that they were twins, she found her self more attracted to the elder hunter then his brother.
"We are here to ask you a few questions Empress Xie. If you don't mind?" D asked her.
"No I don't mind ." She flutter her eyes at the hunter. "Please come this way."
Both dampire brothers began to follow the Empress when she turned around..
"Only D may come, you may say here your highness. Look around if you wish." Xie told him . The younger brother poked the elder brother with his elbow and gave him a smirk. D just rolled his eyes and followed the Empress.
Sym began to look around when he saw a pair of volite- red eyes look out from a heavy curtain.
"Well hello there." Sym said a smile on his face. He could see that the eyes belonged to a young teenager.
"Hello" came a soft male voice.
" Hey were not supposed to talk to any one." came another male voice. It was slightly deeper then the first.
" O why not ?" Sym asked. "Why don't you two come out?"
"Oh no!" The first said.
"Were not allowed to." Came the second voice.
"Okay so you two are not allowed to talk or be seen by any one. Why?" Sym said crossing his arms.
"Were…different." the first brother said.
"Please, were freaks." the second said.
"Oh well if you show me what so different about you I'll show you what's so different about me." Sym said crossing his arms.
The twos boys talked amongst them selves for a time . They finally agreed. Stepping out where Sym could see him came a young boy about sixteen in age. He had medium length blond hair. All in all the boy was filthy. He didn't look like he had been clean in many years. His once fine silk clothing was in rags.
"I don't see any thing different about you ." Sym said trying to cheer up the young boy
"O really." came the second voice.
The boy turn around and sym came face to face with another face. It looked just like the first only this face had sold white eyes. It was clearly that they were symbiotic twins. For the symboint twin always had solid white or black eyes.
Sym smiled showing his fangs. He then removed his sunglasses to reveal his pitch black eyes. " I see nothing wrong with you."
The other boy blinked at Sym's smile. This man wasn't afraid of them? In fact both boys felt a sense of belonging?
"Well I'm Sym" He said with the usual smile on his face.
"We're Janus." Both boys said at the same time.
Sym was a little confused both boy were named Janus?
"Call me Ja ." said the boy with violet-red eyes.
"And I guess you can call me Nus." His brother told the dampire.
"That's what Papa called us." Both boys said a bit of sadness in their voice.
"Where are your parents anyway?" Sym asked them.
"Mama" Ja began but was interrupted by A snort from Nus. "Mama went to go talk to your brother." Ja told Sym.
"What?!" Sym said in disbelief. The empress was these boys mother it was just hard to believe.
"Papa went to a meeting in another country seven years ago. It was only supposed to last three months, he never came back." Nus told him.
" Pet has been our only friend." Ja told Sym.
"Pet?"
"He's a weredampire." Nus informed him.
Sym didn't speak for a moment so that's what the empress pet, a weredampire! Well this explained some things
"But he's been kidnapped." Ja told him.
"What?!" There went their lead right down the hole. Well at least it explained why the empress was yelling before.
"By that idiot gangster. He also took some dragon that could turn into a human." Nas said
.
A smile appeared on his lips. "Do you know were he went to ?"
"South. To a small farm called Meadow." Ja told him.
"Empress please!" D's voice could be heard coming down the hall.
Janus quickly ran back be hind the curtain. Sym place his sunglasses back on and turned around to fine D and Xie.
"Please consider my offer dear hunter." Xie said in a sweet voice.
"Come on were leavening." D told his brother. He grabbed on to his brother's arm and dragged the younger dampire out of the place.
Once out side of the place and a short way ahead of it where no one could hear them Sym began to ask his brother a few questions.
"So what was that all about did you fined out any thing?" Sym asked.
D let out a low growl that made the quite hunter seem out of charter." She told me nothing of use."
"There something more isn't their?" The your twin said smiling.
"She wanted me to be her husband!" D spat.
Sym began to laugh at his brother's expression. " You as Emperor!"
"This was pointless!" D said.
"Not quite."
"Oh? What do you mean Sym."
"I met the Empress's sons."
"What ?!"
" Their a lot like us D."
"Meaning their symbiotic twins."
"Yes." Sym said quietly . "They gave me some useful information."
"Oh?"
"Yes the Empress's pet is a weredampire called Pet. He's been kidnapped by Big R. He also captured a very.. one of a kind dragon." Sym told his brother.
D took a moment to study the info his brother had just given him. "Is their anything else?"
"Ya, there heading for a small farm called Meadow."
"Do you think there are any misfit vampire there're.?"
"Maybe?"
(Meanwhile in Meadow.)
Charlie the leader of the last herd of centpires was walking around the frarm him and his herd protected. Centpiers resembled vampire centaurs. Charlie who was the leader of the small herd had large dark colored and horse like ears. He had light brown hair and the fur that cover his horse like body was the same light brown as his hair only their were three white spots on each side of his rump. Also his forelegs were white.
As the leader of the cent piers continued his walk. The dragon/man came out from the bushes wearing some kind of electronic collar.
"Oh it's you!" Charlie said happily , as he came over to meet the creature .
The dragon/man raised the tranquilizer gun up and pointed it at Charlie.
"Wait! What are you going?"
The dragon/man shot the centpier. A betrayed look came across his face as the drug took effect. The creature picked up the centpier effortlessly and took him back to his new master, Big R
