Chapter 2
The Servants Strike!
It's been a year since they formed a contract with each other. Icarus is back in his old Japanese mansion along with Eli and two other servants they hired. "WAAAAAAH!" Screams a woman carrying way too many plates as she falls to the ground, shattering every last plate. "Honestly Kaede, how many times have I told you not to carry so many at once! You're the biggest klutz I've ever seen!" Icarus scolds his maid. "Forgive me master I just thought I could get it done faster this way!" The maid quickly runs away to get the cleaning supplies. "Really Eli, you couldn't have picked worst servants than this." He says, rubbing his temples. "Hiroshi, what the devil are you doing?" He asks his other servant as he sees him leading a live deer into the servants hallway. "How could I say no to this poor wounded animal!" "No! Absolutely not! No deer in this house! Eli just where the hell are you while all this is going on?!"
Meanwhile in the garden, Eli is having a relaxing time tending to the flowers when he hears a scream. He races to the source of the yell and what he finds disturbs him greatly. His jaw is hanging on the floor at the sight before him. His master is being mounted by a deer. "Aaah! I told you to get that stupid deer out of here! Get him off of me this instant!" Eli quickly pushes the deer off of his poor master. Icarus stomps over to one of the samurai swords on the wall and grabs it. He begins running towards Hiroshi and the deer hiding behind him. "That's it! He dies today!" They have a wild goose chase for a good 15 minutes before Eli finally calms his master down enough to let go of the sword. "What idiot brings a wild deer into their master's home!" Icarus says while entering his office with Eli. Eli glanced at his pocket watch."I must start preparing dinner. If you need anything, please call for me." He said as he left the room.
"Oh my, I have so much work to do." Icarus mumbled to himself as he saw the stack of paperwork on his desk. Icarus was, at the age of 14, quite the businessman. His father owned a company that made fine katanas, armor, and other things like that. Icarus inherited the company after his family's demise. "So tired..." Icarus mumbles before drifting off into sleep on his desk. There was the sound of children laughing. Three children played in a backyard as a man and a woman watched over them. It was Icarus's parents, Integra and Kaiya. Icarus was playing a game of tag with his older brother Reiko and his little sister Mariko. All of a sudden a huge smoke cloud appeared and screams were heard. It was the screams of his family, he could see his siblings and parents being dragged away as he fought with the man trying to take him as well. Icarus couldn't see anything as he struggled to get to his parents. Then he heard it... four gunshots. Then, it all fell silent. No more screams, just...nothing. He felt a sharp sting in his neck as he fell unconscious. The albino began to hear a faint voice in his unconscious mind calling to him. "Master. Master. Master!" Icarus awoke breathing heavily. "Master, are you alright? I heard you screaming all the way in the kitchen." "I'm fine Eli." He stated, still out of breath. "Well alright then...it is time for dinner." "I'll be there shortly." Eli left the room shortly after. "It was just a dream..." Icarus said softly to himself as he sighed. "Nothing but a dream."
After dinner Icarus decided it was time to retire to his room. Eli quickly drew a warm bath for his master. "It's been quite the day." Icarus said, getting in to the bath. "Indeed my young master." "Tomorrow we'll have an even bigger day. We will be heading in to the heart of Kyoto tomorrow, so prepare a carriage for us." "What do we need from Kyoto my young master?" "I'll explain it on the way there. I'm too tired right now. I'm going to bed." The albino said, getting out of the bath and heading to his room. He put on his nightgown and climbed into bed. "Goodnight my lord." Eli stated as he walked towards the door. "Stay here. At least until I fall asleep." Icarus mumbled quietly. "Oh my, is the young master scared? Could it be from what happened before dinner perhaps?" "Just shut up and stay there. I don't want to hear another peep out of you." "Yes, my lord." Icarus soon drifted off to sleep, trying not to think about what awaits him tomorrow.
