River Rat

Plans and indisposed vampires

Hey I'm so sorry it's been a while. I had a new chapter all written up then I lost the floppy disk I saved it on. I started to re write it but found out that I could never re do the original. A quick explanation is better then nothing though so here it goes: Darres got drunk, so did Krai. They went walking through the town singing about gremlins and wearing ostrich feathers and weird hats until Ishtar found them. She took them back and aloud Darres to spend the night in the stables. Yuugin came and brought the hung over Darres a drink that turned out to be the potion. Darres now has no control over his actions but Yuugin dose. They also kissed

Back to the story.

Darres sat in the main hall. He was back in his armour and ready to serve the princess. She had been glad to welcome him back especially sense the condition she'd found him in the other night. She laughed as she looked at the ever so serious Darres and compared him to the drunken moron from the night before.

"Lady Ishtar." A woman with long black hair and very beautiful features walked calmly in to the room unannounced. Ishtar glanced at Darres and expected him to rush to stop the woman going any closer. He didn't though. He never seemed to do much unless Yuugin was around.

'Maybe Darres and Yuugin are together.' She thought sadly. 'I guess I'll just put Yuugin in prison for ninety years and then see if Darres still likes him.' She giggled to her self.

The woman looked at Duzell, she smiled evilly. She then bowed to Ishtar and got ready to speak.

"Lady Ishtar, I am here on behalf of my people. We wish for you to come to one of our holidays. It is a simple celebration of the defeat of the vampire king Duzell." She glanced quickly and the platinum haired doctor. "We request that you and any male friend of your choice come to this address next week on Thursday." The lady passed a slip of paper to Ishtar who looked down at it and grinned, it was a pub.

"I'll do my best to be there for you and your people. Just so I know, what should I address you and your people by?" She asked formally.

"My name is Sharly. My people are called the River rats." With this she bowed once more, smiled politely and left the room.

"I don't trust her, princess." Duzell whispered in to Ishtar's ear.

"Neither do I but… It says there will be free drinks!" She smiled up at her 'kitty'.

"Lady Ishtar." Yuugin walked in to the room. "I hear that you have been invited to a River Rat celebration. I'm sure Darres or my self would be glad to join you." He smiled at the zombie like guard which he was quite sure Ishtar would chose to go with her.

"Thanks but no thanks Yuugin. I'm taking some one else with me." Ishtar gestured with her hands towards Duzell. She turned to Darres and expected a large lecture about always having a guard with her. Darres didn't react at first but then he did.

"Lady Ishtar!" Darres shouted. "You can't go to this thing on your own or with a doctor. He is not a royal guard and we don't even know is he's a good fighter or not! What if it's a trap? I'd feel a lot better if Jill, Krai or my self accompanied you." Darres looked up at Ishtar. She didn't notice any difference but her feline doctor did.

"Okay then Darres. Have it your way, I'll take you with me, on one condition. You can't wear armour to this party. You have to wear normal clothes like you were the night you were drunk." She smiled cheekily. Jill looked at Krai with a bewildered expression. Krai sniggered and then realised that Darres owed him about 100 gold pieces.

Mean while

"Okay, Fleur." Sharlen approached the Selen like girl. Sharlen turned from Sharly in to his normal self. "The plan is set. He'll be there, that idiot Yuugin already gave him the potion which means that he can feel pride in accompanying are little crusade to dominate the world." Fleur turned and flew off…

To be continued…

He he, Darres is going to party! He's gonna shake his cute ass!
