Chapter 8

"Hello My Lord! How are you today?"

I stared at the lowly commoner and smirked. These were the people...

"Oh...hello. I'm quite all right."

These commoners that took up my father's time...

"Oh thank-you so much. You're father has done so much for us..."

The time that he should be spending with ME...

"What do you mean?"

His only son...

"You must be very lonely...Our little affairs has made your father leave the castle countless o' times...I only imagine..."

These people who couldn't even speak right...

"You can't imagine."

I spat out. These losers...

"Why my lord! Why so harsh?"

Are they more important in my father's eyes than me?

"Why so harsh? You're stupid troubles has made my father restless. He can hardly sleep at night!"

If only there was away...

"I'm so sorry, milord. But we do need-"

Just the sight of them...

"Silence! I can't stand the sight of you, or your damn-You're pest. You infest our country with your troubles."

I brought out my sword, but my mentor, Marcus, stopped me from doing any harm to the infidel.

"Get off me, Marcus!"

I screamed, but he held on to me tight.

"Lord Roy, you must calm yourself. You're attracting a crowd."

He was right, so I sheathed my sword and walked away. These imbeciles will pay...

I was so angry that I didn't even see the young girl jump up in front of me.

"Lord Roy!"

/Ness POV/

I heard Roy scream. I had been standing by his door, banging on it for the past 15 minutes.

"Roy! Roy what's wrong?"

"Ness...?" He said softly.

"Open this door at once!" I wanted to sound just like Marth and his old-school way of talking.

"Just leave me alone!" Luckily I had a card with me. I had learned this trick from my sister. I slid the gift card between the door and the frame. I twisted the knob and it opened immediately.

Roy was sitting on his bed with his covers wrapped around him. His face was pale and he didn't look so great.

"What are you doing in here? I said leave me alone!" Roy shouted.

"What happened?"

"Shut-up."

"Did Marth do this to you?"

"I said shut your damn mouth. I don't want to hear that name!"

I flinched, his voice was so loud.

"And leave, now. Or you'll regret it."

Yeah, he actually thinks I'm going to listen to him?

"Why did you just scream?" Roy narrowed his eyes and looked away from me.

"Get a life."

I walked closer to his bed.

"Answer my question."

I had to be more assertive. Show no fear! That's what I learned in a book that taught me how to deal with bullies. And Roy was certainly acting like one.

But as I stared at him, I detected some sort of sorrow in his eyes.

"Alright, I had a dream. Okay, a nightmare."

"Really? What was it about."

Roy rested his back on his bed and placed his hand on his forehead.

"It's a suppressing memory of mine. There's no reason you should know. It would frighten you."

I laughed. I've seen almost every horror movie ever made!

"Yeah right Roy. I can take it." Roy snapped his head over to me.

"If I can't take it, what makes you think you can?" He then looked away from me again. "Alright, I'll tell you. But I'm warning you Ness, after your done hearing this, you'll probably not want to speak to me again."

"Shut-up and just tell me already."

Roy smiled slightly and then shrugged.

"It all happened this one day. I went to the village with my mentor, Marcus. He's a paladin. But anyway, this one peasant was thanking me because my father was helping them so much. He then said he was sorry that my father wasn't around that much at the castle. That fool just kept on dragging on his thanks. I couldn't stand the sight of him. I was about to kill him, when Marcus stopped me. So, frustrated, I left. I was so angry, that I didn't notice this girl in front of me. She was, I think, a kid? And everything happened so fast...I took out my sword and killed her. It was horrible..."

Roy paused and sighed.

"Marcus was stunned also, but I never felt so satisfied in my life. But I knew what I did was wrong, so I ran. I only ran so Marcus won't chastised me, like he always did. He couldn't catch up with me, and I hid in the outskirts of town. There I took refuge for a couple of days, I was acting like a child. I should've gone back and received my punishment. But I was afraid what my father would say. His son, his own flesh and blood, had killed someone. A kid even. I grew angrier with myself, with each passing day. I just wanted to kill myself. Then one day, these poor, unsuspecting people saw me crying. They asked me what was wrong. They should've just left me alone..."

Roy stopped again and blinked a couple of times. He rolled over, away from me and continued;

"...I was so infuriated. I just wanted to be left alone. I told them to leave, or else. But they just wanted to get in the favor of a Lord of Lycia."

Roy started to laugh maniacally. I stepped back, this man was crazy.

"...So that was their last warning. I had advised well enough, but the persisted. So, without a second guessing myself, I slew each and everyone of them. A teenager, a woman, a man and some old fat dude. After I was done, I felt as if the weight of the world had been lifted off of me. I watched their blood float over to me, almost inviting me. So, I drank it."

My face probably look as if I dropped 50 sour warheads and Jolly Ranchers in my mouth.

"The woman's blood was probably the most tastiest. But, eh, whatever. I threw their bodies in the river and watched them drown. The teenager's head, I planted it on someone's fence. It was like a work of art. From that day on, I knew the only way to make me happy was to end someone's life."

Roy jumped off his bed and headed towards me.

"And right now, Ness, I'm not feeling to happy."

There was blood all over his clothes, and I finally noticed that his room smelt just like it. I gagged. I was so afraid of Roy now. He was like a cannibal or something. Roy lunged at me, and caught my arm before I could escape. He pushed me up against his wall and grinned evilly at me.

"Ooh, I forgot to tell you what I did to the bodies before I threw them into the river. I took out each ones heart and gouged out their eyes. I tried to eat their hearts, and I got kind of sick...But any which way, I did enjoy it. Although I did throw up the rest of the day."

He rolled his eyes and squeezed my arm. Blood was pouring out of his chest, it was real nasty. Roy reached into his pocket and pulled out a dagger.

"This...this dagger, this is what Marth wanted to use on Peach. I picked it up, just in case I saw him again. But I guess I can use it on you."

He put it up to me and I could feel the frigid blade cut my neck effortlessly. The pain was agonizing and Roy covered my mouth so my screams would be muffled. I stared at him, but he wasn't looking at me. My head swarmed with ideas of what I should do.

"Roy!"

He let go of me and turned his head over to the door. Zelda was standing there.

"What were you just...what happened to you?"

I felt my neck, nothing was cut. I gazed at Roy's hands, he was using the dull side of the blade. I moved away from him and stared at his face.

"Zelda? What are you doing in here?" She ran over to me and picked me up.

"What the hell were you doing to Ness?" Roy got up and leaned against the wall.

"I...well..." He stared at his swollen knuckles. "I...um...I don't know. Just leave me alone." Zelda snarled at him.

"Shut-up Roy. Just shut-up. You disgust me." She screamed at him, talking me out of his room. I heard him slam his door.

When we were a good distance away, she put me down and started to cry.

"What's wrong with him?"

"Hey, you have the Triforce of Wisdom. You should know." She glared at me.

"This isn't a joke! Roy could've killed you."

"But he didn't...he spared me."

"I don't care. He's dangerous."

"Only when he's been hurt." Zelda stared at me.

"What...?"

"That's what he told me." Zelda nodded. "Zelda, I think he needs help. Not mental help, we can get him that later. But, I think he needs a doctor. He looks really wounded." Zelda nodded again.

"Alright, but you stay here. I'll go get him."

"Be careful."

/Roy's POV/

When Zelda entered my room, I was sitting by my window. I was hurting all over, but I didn't show that. I bet Ness wouldn't want to talk to me anymore. Who was I supposed have a conversation with?

"Roy, come on. Let me take you to Dr. Mario."

"Leave me alone. He doesn't like me anyway."

"Don't argue with me Roy, or else."

"Or else what? You'll hurt me? I've already been hurt enough. Why don't you just kill me?"

She seemed stunned, but I didn't care. I sat down on my chair and put my head on my desk.

"Just end my life right now."

"You're delirious."

"No, I'm not. Just do it, or I'll just do it myself."

I was serious. I didn't want to live anymore. I'd suffered too much in my life, I just wanted to die.

"Don't say that! Are you mad?"

"If you were me, you'd probably want to end your life too. So don't you dare contradict me."

"What happened down there?" I disregarded her question and started to bang my head on my desk. I then began to develop a headache, so I stopped.

"Just follow me, Roy."

"NO!" I snapped. Zelda grabbed my arm and dragged me out of my room. I didn't resist.

I was starting to get exhausted, from walking. In a few minutes we were downstairs. She took me over to the clinic so Mario could treat me.

/Marth's POV/

When Roy walked in with Zelda, I felt my blood boil. Dr. Mario had already treated me, and I was about to leave. When Roy saw me, his face turned pale. He was frightened. Well I did shoot him. I felt an air of triumph float around me. I smirked over at Roy. Taught him a lesson.

But he did look worse off than me. I shrugged as they past me. I just wanted to shove him.

"Roy, what happened? Played with fire huh?" Dr. Mario joked. Roy looked down.

"Oh, quit the jokes and treat him." Zelda commanded. Dr. Mario rolled his eyes.

"Yeah, yeah. I'll treat him."

"You'd better..."


Okay, chapter 8 done. I wanted to get this up ASAP. I hoped you liked this chapter. It wasn't all that long. And all the things I wrote were so unrealistic. I didn't get any romance in...darn. And only a bit of Roy's past came up. Now that seemed corny...

Well, until next time, mon amis.
