Twisted Fates: the howling events

"Yes, Sparks." He whispered, half wondering what sort of trouble she was getting herself into right now. More likely trying to drum information out of Tanu. Part of the reason he left the paryrm clueless of why he was here. It was more of a safety measure for his children, he didn't know much about Tanu's personality to know if he could trust him fully. The second hug pulled him out of his thoughts and he happily encircled his daughter with his arms. "I have missed you to. Take your gift and open it." He ordered softly.

Tanu continued to try and figure out this creature before him, he decided she was more like his sister than he had first thought. "Nice try. I only take orders from my employer...directly." He added to hinder any sort of response that would lead to some uncomfortable situations.

Sparks grinned at Tanu and chuckled, "Hmm...do I not count as your employer sort of...?" She asked, knowing she had lost but still never giving up.

Fluer watched her father produce a small box, a gift for her, and beamed delightedly, adding that little pretend suprisement to her face as he hugged her,"Oh father you shouldn't have!" She said smiling at her, although her words were far from true.
Fluer breifly wondered whether he had gotten Sparks a present too, and seeing no other box on the table made her grin, senindg flutters of self satisfaction through her body, she already knew she was the favourite, but little things like this made it even clearer.
Speaking of Sparks...where was she now?

"No." Tanu stated clearly, he believed the statement fully. She was his employers child giving her little power over him on that account. "My orders from the Vicar were very strict and very clear. As well as what your father stated on the journey here. You are living up to his words perfectly." He wasn't sure if he should have added that last part, it was far to late to change it now. "If you wish to continue this pointless conversation, you will have to do it as I get a feel for your home. I am under orders." He gestured to the door, he wasn't exactly feeling comfortable with this arrangement. Tanu would be more at ease if he were walking about and doing as he was requested.

Aodhfionn watched his eldest daughter open the small trinket, it wasn't anything fancy. A ear cuff that he found at the market, it meant something to those that lived in the city. It had three delicate gold chains hanging from the cuff with small purple gems clinging at the end of each one. "It is called a Fair Charm." He explained. "You are suppose to give it to the one you love. There are others that have deeper romantic meanings, they are studded with blue or yellow gems. This one is for friendship and family ties. The Saxe were very strict about which one to sell me." He laughed as he shook his head, the vendor and himself had gotten into a heated debate over it.

Fleur laughed and thanked her father through squeals of elated excitement and another embrace," Oh Daddy It's beautiful!" She crooned, fastening it on.

Sparks hid a smile at Tanu's words and shurgged, standing up then," Alright, a tour it is..." She said wiking at him," So...what exactly is it my father has you thinking of me then...? Surely nothing appaling..>" She teased, a look of mock horror on her pixie face.

"That would clearly depend on what you consider as appalling." Tanu commented as he held the door open for the youth. The peacekeeper did not try to clarify or explain what sort of information was given.

The house was indeed a calculated maze, the spender was not lost to the paryrm even though he did not express it outwardly. Each room had been designed for maxim usage and comfort for those who dwell within the walls. The layout was simple enough to understand, Tanu commit as much as he could to memory. The rest he would figure out in time. His tour guide was rather tight lipped about the rooms only giving general purposes for them.

Three days rolled by with little trouble, Tanu shadowed Aodhfionn learning the household and business routines. They were simple despite his first impressions of the man. The noble liked things easy and well organized, when events did not go smoothly Aodhfionn would clearly voice his disgust. The staff were quick to try to ensure things were back on the right track promptly.

With his employer sitting at the large desk in his home office, Tanu, like usual posted himself at the only entry. Most of the time he stood outside the office, at least then he had people to watch wander by. This was downright boring, staring at the walls and knick knacks that held little understanding to the paryrm. Most of this house and those occupying it was far from his comprehension.

A soft scent of the head of the staff drafted around him a moment before a soft knock on the door alerted Aodhfionn of the arrival. The noble only grunted and the man stepped in glancing at the paryrm with a bit of sympathy. "Lunch is served, Sir." The man stated boldly with a slight nod of his head.

Aodhfionn set most things aside, he carried one last report and read it as he was escorted to the table. Once he was seated, he dismissed his bodyguard with a wave of a hand.

Like usual, Tanu followed the other to the kitchen where a hot plate of food was waiting for him. He sat heavily on the wooden chair with grunt and sigh, he leaned on the wall for extra support to ease the cramping in his shoulder. "Long day already?" The cook's assistant asked as she kneaded some dough causing the small table to shake.

Tanu grunted and flexed his legs, he rose only long enough to remove the long coat which he tucked on the empty chair. The harden plates of his armor clicked against the surfaces as he tended to his meal. His stomach growled nosily from the intoxicating smell of real food. Tanu was not looking forward to going back to the lumps of over processed blocks considered food back in Hukii City. "It seems longer when stuck inside the office."

The woman chuckled tossing her head to free her eyes from her hair. Her green peepers had not missed the slight unveiling of Tanu's well defined body, it was her favorite parts of the day to get a glimpse of what he hid behind that heavy coat. She made an appoint to be in the kitchen no matter what when he was scheduled to eat. "I think he does it 'cause he likes people to suffer as much as he does." She pointed a flour covered finger at him with a mischievous smile on her lips. The paryrm grunted again, which was the closest thing she knew he would get to a smile or laugh. The man was tighter with his emotions than Aodhfionn was with his pocket book.

Tanu finished eating quickly, alway ravaged his food to ensure he would be done before his employer. He leaned back in his chair pulling off the comm from his ear and lay it on the table. Slowly he rubbed his right ear as he stared toward the screen door that lead to the garden. He had started wandering through it instead of sitting in mediation in his room in the mornings.

((So sorry I haven't posted in such a long time, I was grounded for uh...well lets not get into that

Sorry, by the way, friday 13 onwards im going to be away for 4-5 days with no internet so just to let you know

*hug*))

Fleur groaned internally as she heard the call for supper, and retreated moodily from her spying position.
Aaaah, how she loved to watch him, so strong so attractive....so uh...handsome.
Fluer smiled and giggled girlishy as she wandered through a daze into the main dining hall.
Her flightyl good mood evaporated as soon as she saw her sister sititng at the table.
Fluer almost scowled but kept a controlled face because her father was there- and even though she knew he'd take her side in any argument, she still wanted to remain a perfect child.

Sparks raised her tawny gold eyes lazily as her sister approached, and then she let them drop once more and -rolling her eyes- began to poke her food about with a fork.
"Father, shouldn't Sparks be eating her food now? Before it goes cold...?" Fluer simpered, quickly flashed a cunning grin at Sparks.
Sparks ignored her, and continued to play with her food.
"Oh really Sparks-aren't you hungry...?" She asked, another disgusting smile playing across her pink lips.
"No." Sparks answered, her voice monotone- this was a strange night, she could not even muster the energy to snap back at her overly annoying idiotic, bimbo, pig-headed, drool of a sister.
Ha.
Sparks congratulated herself mentally for not being wound up.
The table was silent after that, however not a peaceful silence but an awkward one.
Sparks rapped her nails on the table a few times, much to Fluer's annoyance.
Sparks noticed this and continued, a sly grin coming to her face.
Fluer twitched slightly, once, twice, three times.
Sparks continued, watching Fluer boil up inside until finally the volcano exploded,
"OH FATHER WON'T YOU PLEASE TELL HER TO STOP?!?!" She shouted irritably.
Sparks sighed, she didn't need this, and, pushing her chair away from the table, she rose from her seat.
"I'm not hungry..." She said, and then left quickly before she was interrogated further.
Sparks dawdled in the hall for a moment, not really wanting to go back to her room- and then an idea struck her.
She would visit the garden.
Spark's smiled to herself and- picking up her pace- began to walk in the direction of their garden.
-
It was beautiful outside, lush and welcoming, a refreshing change from the stuffy indoors of the house.
It was a paradise for Sparks, a freedom in it's own sense, and she rellished it.
She traced her fingers down the vine of a nearby plant, climbing acsross a window: the flower was a dusty pink colour with spreckles of creamy white scattered over the full petals of the flower. The flower itself was not alone, but in a sensae different form the rest it accompanied, this one had not yet bloomed- not yet revealed its deep warm yellow interior, it had not fallen pray to the hungry bee's on their quest for pollen.
Sparks let her eyes floow the vine of the plant, like a labryinth itself, deep green with the occasionaly thorn, thin and winding- occasinaly branching off in a different direction, and another.
Sparks smiled to herself and sighed, if only she knew the name of this beautiful life form, then perhaps she may have understood it more.

Aodhfionn only grunted when Fleur spoke, the report was disturbing and had fully captured his mind. The urgency of the situation was growing stronger, who was doing this had to be found and quickly. His eyes jerked to his eldest daughter who was shouting, he put the report down and gave his daughters a hard look. Before he could speak Sparks excused herself and left, he was use to this behavior from his children. He was acutely aware of how this appeared, he let out a breath. It was time Fleur started acting like a young lady. “Fleur, such out bursts are not worthily of your position. You are a young noble, I don’t want such behavior escaping you again.” He reached to squeeze her hand to ease the discipline he had to issue. If her mother was alive, both girls would no doubt behave according to their station. Perhaps it was time he found a woman to fill those shoes.

Tanu jerked a bit at the muffled outburst from the dinning room, he glanced at the cook who seemed unmoved by the usual habit. A moment later he caught the sight of the youngest heading toward the garden. He rose to his feet if they were leaving the table he would need to get back to work.

He peeked into the dinning room finding his employer had not even began to eat, his eyes swept over the eldest daughter. The woman was pretty in her own right, he had not seen much of her. She had been around, he often caught hints of her scent nearby.

Tanu stepped out into the fresh air as he concealed his four hand guns with his long coat, he wanted to check on Sparks. At least she talked to him on occasion, unlike her sister who seemed to be disgusted with his very presence. He shook the thought away as the white flagstone tapped against his boot heels.

The Paryrm froze in mid step, a scent lingered close. One that did not match any of the household, the trace of weapon cleaner forced his heart into a faster pace. His eyes found the end of the gun which happened to be pointed at the youngest of the nobles. He sprung into action, his arms wrapped around the thin frame of Sparks pulling her under him. A bolt slammed against his back, he growled in pain and anger. He rolled off her after a quick glance to make sure she was alright he pulled free two of his pistols. With a practiced gestured both powered up. “Get inside now.” He ordered, sending a few shots in the direction of the retreating footsteps.

Aodhfionn jumped to his feet at the sound of gun discharge, the chair fell backwards in his rush to ensure all was well. The peacekeeper was peeling himself from his daughter, a large whole burnt in the thick coat smoked slightly. From under his suit jacket he freed an elegant gun as he rushed to his daughter. “Don’t let them get away.” He ordered, hauling his daughter to her feet pushing her toward the entrance.

Tanu raced after the gunman, he tugging at the internal rage that was boiling inside him to give him a little more speed. He tackled with the would be assassin, the two exchanged a few blows. In his state, Tanu barely felt the fists against his face. His vision was tainted with green for his eyes held an eerie glow that clustered in his pupils leaking out into the iris’. He snarled tossing the man against the stone wall and pinned him there. His sensitive nose picked up several people who the assassin had come in contact recently. Tanu grinned evilly at this information, just another step closer to who was behind the attack.

"To bad you are wanted alive. I really like to peel you open." Tanu's voice had dropped several tones as his grip around the other's throat tightened.

"I don't know anything." The man choked, his feet beat against Tanu's shin guards. He swore when the blue-gray skinned man was not phrased by his efforts. He stooped to the universal blow to the groin, his knee hit what felt like a brick. He let out a scream when the unusual man only laughed at him. "I swear I don't know anything."

"I will be the judge of that." Tanu stated, he shoved the man toward one of the outbuildings. Aodhfionn had shown him a room where they were to carry out integrations. The browned skinned man was stripped of anything that could be used as a means of escape, he was shoved into the metal chair shackles held his ankles, wrist and chest down.

Tanu backed away to watch the other struggle, the door opened the normally passive face of the butler had a bit of excitement to it. "Who do we have here?" He asked placing a small case on the table behind the captive.

"He assures he doesn't know anything." As Tanu's mood cooled, the pain of all his injuries increased. His fingers dug in his inner pocket and freed a small container of red serum.

The butler tapped on the syringe chasing out any bubbles from the clear liquid inside. "We shall see about that." The butler gave the peacekeeper a glance, and shook his head. "Wait on that. I want you in your present state in case out guest gets a little out of hand."

((I'm so sorry I haven't been on in ages, again

my internet was playing up again when I got back from Barcelona and when it was running I was just too bogged down with revision to get on a computern , my greatest and most sincerest apologies Yolo))

Sparks felt the impact as someone else's body crushed into hers, "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK-" She began to protest, but then she felt arms around her, and a gunshot was fired.
Tanu turned and ran, leaving Sparks in a heap on the floor where she was soon swept off her feet by her father.
"What's going ON?!?!" She shouted, confused, "Is Tanu okay?! WHAT'S HAPPENING?!?!" She asked frantically.

Fleur watched her father run from the table and was left sitting in silence- she too, had heard a shot been fired, but why was everyone running around all of a sudden?
Fleur began to panic, was someone hurt? Was Tanu alright? Was her father alright?
Fleur helplessly hurried out of her seat and ran into the corridoor.
Sparks protested against her father until se was finally out of his hold, "Where's Tanu?!? What's going on?!" She shouted frustratedly, although the panic in her voice was evident.
Then Sparks had an idea.
"Nevermind." She said hurriedly, and bolted away from her father.
Sparks was a fast runner, although clumsy as she was, and her light frame made her swift and agile at the best of times.
All she had to do was use the other exit.
Spark's had seen the direstion Tanu had gone in.
She wouldn't leave him for dead, even if they didn't really get on.
Sparks mind was racing- she knew he would be able to defend himself, after all isn't that what he was employed to do?
But Sparks couldn't help worrying about that, what IF something happened? What if this was a trap? An ambush?

Sparks reached them, and haulted to a stop, careful so that she would not be seen or heard.
There were three people there, Tanu, the butler and another man- presumably the one who had fired the shot- or was it a man? There was something odd about him and Sparks was going to find out what.
Her sharp eyes caught sight of a red vile- or was it a syringe?
"...Wait on that. I want you in your present state in case out guest gets a little out of hand." She heard a voice say, it sounded like Tanu but she couldn't be sure.

OOC: It is okay. I am glad you were able to make it back on.

Calling after his daughter proved pointless. He returned to the house shaken from the manner in which their lives were interrupted.

Tanu placed the four ounce bottle back in his pocket watching the butler working with the drug that has been explained to him that made people tell the truth. The needle slipped into the hired gun’s vein and the syringe was drained.

The butler stood beside the Paryrm as they watched their captive slowly being overtaken by the drug. “You know that hole in your coat cannot be fixed.”

Tanu let out a growl, it was his favorite article of clothing which was regrettably ruined. He felt it set him apart from his comrades who normally sported vests. The very smell of leather brought such calm to him, he wasn’t sure why. He had come to the conclusion the sensation was from the wyrm, and left it at that. “Yes, I know. I will have to find another soon.” Tanu pulled off the coat and looked at the hole, he tossed it aside not liking the feeling without it on.

“Now, I think you are ready to talk.” The butler stated walking toward the captive, he used several methods to persuade him to talk. Most of the methods made Tanu’s stomach twist with disgust, the answers came out in harsh whispers. He didn’t hear most of them, for he spent most of his time keeping his meal down.

The man was killed at the end of the session, and a clean up crew whisked away the body and renewed the room as if nothing had happened there. Tanu stiffly picked up his coat moving down the hallways toward his room. The door didn’t close all the way as he tapped on the computer panel on the forearm of his suit. He started unbuckling the armor from his body setting it on the desk. The last thing he removed was his tight shirt, showing off the massive bruise around the concaved overlapping scales that covered his spine. He stepped into the bathroom to check his back in the mirror, he let out a sigh. He had not had the setting on his armor high enough for the bolt he had taken.

He returned to the desk, his fingers slipped over the three parallel scars that were embedded in his chest. He picked up the forearm panel and started poking at the keys to reprogram the settings of his armor. They packed a little more punch than what was normal in Hukii. He would have to speak to his employer about getting a new level of energy in his weapons. A conversation he was putting off for some reason, he really didn’t want to think of any sort of retaliation that may come of this little act.

Sparks had followed Tanu silently, quiet as a mouse, and had watched him until he began to underss- when she had turned away.
She could see him typing now, the only noise in the silence being the tap, tap, tap of the keys as his fingers moved feverishly across the letters and numbers of the board.
"What happened out there?" She asked, her voice breaking the silence- lous for Sparks who usually kept to herself.

Yolo · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Yolo** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 1:06 pm

Tanu glanced up at the little spy around the ajar door. "We-I caught the guy that tried to kill you." He stated evenly as he moved toward the noble and opened the door wider, he peered at her for a long while wondering how long she had been following him. He had noticed strong whiffs of her scent, he had dismissed it since she always seemed to be everywhere in the house leaving strong trails of odor on her way through. "How do you fair? Not too banged up I hope." Tanu glanced down at his naked torso and returned to the pile freeing his shirt from the entanglement. He righted it and slipped it on.

xenchantedx · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **xenchantedx** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 1:26 pm

Sparks grinned wryly, "You probably got the worse end of the stick," She studied him for a moment, he appeared unscathed, but from what Sparks had heard of the bullet being fired, it had hit him in the back...
"Your back...your not hurt...?" She murmured, more to herself than to him, before continuing," Anyway...I gues I just came to uh...say thanks...it's not every day someone saves my life..." She said, looking at the floor and smiling to herself.

Yolo · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Yolo** on Wed Mar 25, 2009 4:39 pm

Tanu ran a hand through his short hair as Sparks spoke. "I have armor to take most of the heat," he explained unsure if she would really understand. He didn't want to disrespect her by acting like she didn't. "The ache will be gone in a few hours."

He continued to watch the way she stood and stared at the floor, he wasn't sure why such body language was coming from her. He didn't really understand females to begin with, Sparks threw all what he had come to know out the door. She was a puzzle, a complete and utter puzzle that taxed his brain to no end. Surprise rippled through him as she offered her thanks, it wasn't often he would get such a thing. He relished it when they did come his way. "You are welcome."

Once Aodhfionn was sure both his daughters were safe, he stepped into his office with the butler who filled him in what had happened. His mind flashed to Tanu who had saved his youngest's life. "Who sent him?"

"He wasn't able to give that information. He was hired through a data stream. No names." The butler shifted his weight before clearing his throat. "I think Tanu was able to pick up some scents. I haven't had time to ask of course. I had to work quickly once the drug started working."

"Don't worry, I will speak to him. You did a good job, one that I wasn't sure I would ever use your special talents."

The older man smiled and bowed his head before leaving the room.

Aodhfionn strolled up he stairs find his daughter hanging around Tanu's room. "Sparks, are you alright?"

xenchantedx · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **xenchantedx** on Thu Mar 26, 2009 12:33 pm

Sparks' head spun around and she jumped slightly as she heard her father's voice," I'm fine." She said, it came out sharper than she intended to, "Uh...I think I'll just go take .....a shower..." SHe said, frowning to herself as she turned and hurried up the stairs.
It had only been an excuse to get away from her father's prying eyes, but Sparks now found that she would be greatful of a shower.
She undressed and stared at the bathing tub for a minute.
Maybe a bath would be better.
Sparks began running the taps as she sat perched on the edge of the tub with a towel around her, she onyl ever really had time for showers, but a bath would be a nice change...
When the bath was filled with hot water, sparks grabbed a bottle off the ledge- one of fleur's fancy fetishes- and tipped half the contents into the tub.
oops, maybe that was a little too much.
Sparks stepped into the tub- this being difficult considering the many bubbles- and sank into the warm water with a smile, her mind racing with thoughts of today....she needed to crack Tanu, then she would crack the mysterious case of today- but how...?

Fleur had watched from the corridoor as Sparks had conversed with Tanu- all the time burning with the greenest of jealous envy.
And now it was time to speak to him for herself.
She checked her hair in the dining room mirror breifly, then, satisfied with her appearance, made her way to Tanu's room.
"Hello Tanu," She greeted him brightly, fluttering her eyelashes in a girlish fashion.

Yolo · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Yolo** on Fri Mar 27, 2009 10:50 pm

"Alright." Aodhfionn stated watching her walk off. He glanced at his bodyguard for a long moment before finding intelligent to say. This whole thing had him scared more than before. No one ever had taken a shot at his family, he couldn't bare to loose anyone that he loved. He wanted to find who was behind all of this, with so little to go on he felt rather helpless. His eyes finally landed on the steady gaze of the Paryrm, he found the hope he so desperately sought. At the moment he couldn't remember who had told him that Tanu would more than likely scent these people. "I will want a full report of your findings as soon as you are able."

"Of course." Tanu stated with a nod which his employer returned before turning on his heel and heading toward his room. He was about to shut the door and find a hot shower himself when a soft voice trickled over his space. He found Fleur at his door, his brow knitted with confusion for an instant before it smoothed out. He nearly asked if she had gotten something caught in her eye, yet she did not express any sort of discomfort. "Hello, Fleur. Are you well?" His eyes swept over her body and saw nothing to conflict with the idea that she was unharmed from the little skirmish, at least physically.

Fleur giggled slightly and smiled aty Tanu, taking another step into the room," Oh I'm fine, I just wanted to thank you,...for saving my dear sister's life..." She simpered, inside disgusted at herself for this lie- she hated Sparks, and the sad part was she was jealous that she had not been the one Tanu had saved, that it had been Sparks.

Yolo · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **Yolo** on Tue Mar 31, 2009 10:34 pm

The giggling alerted Tanu to something he felt he should be aware of. Yet, he wasn't exactly sure what, at the moment. Not many females giggled or tried to be close to him in any given situation. Her words gave him better understanding, at least he thought. Her sibling had been in the line of danger, this would cause any rational being to seek out company to ensure their personal safety. "Your thanks are not needed, I was simply doing my job." Tanu stated with a nod of his head. "Your words are most pleasing to hear that my duty had not gone unnoticed."

He stood for a long while watching her with great interest. "Is there something else I can help you with?"

xenchantedx · **Tips:** 0.00 INK by **xenchantedx** on Wed Apr 01, 2009 10:51 am

Fleur bit her lip and smiled, her mind racing.
How could she get him to keep talking?
Oh no, Fleur was out of ideas.
"Umm..." She said frowning, desperately trying to think of something- anything...
Blank.
"Not at the moment," She finally said, her voice attempting at being alluring.
Fleur flashed a dazzling smile at Tanu and flounced out of the room.
When she was in her bedroom, Fleur smacked her head hard with her hand and fell onto her bed annoyed at herself, annoyed at her father.
And especially annoyed at Sparks.

(time skip?)

Evening:

Tanu took a long hot shower trying to relax his muscles, he turned off the water and grabbed the towel. His mind rolling over and over every word and phrase Aodhfinn had used in their conversation about the attack earlier as well as the information the Paryrm supplied about the scents. Neither had taken to much stake into what Tanu picked up, it was a clue one they would explore tomorrow with a trip into the nearest town.

Tanu wasn't exactly looking forward to that little venture.

The tired Paryrm swallowed the bitter green liquid, the rush went straight to his head. He found some comfortable sleeping pants to pull on and hung the towel in the bathroom. By the time he returned to the bed, he was stumbling nearly lost in the drugs effects. Tanu let his body fall against the mattress with a quiet chuckle, he pulled the blanket over his body while his mind soared in different directions.

The room flexed and moved unnaturally causing Tanu's stomach to twist nearly threatening to spill all he had consumed at dinner. Snapping his eyes shut he tried to settle in for the night, sleep was halted by the endless worries and mind wanderings. In his state, he actually tried to figure out what the whole event with Fleur could actually mean.

Two weeks later.

Tanu's grip on his guns bit into his palms, the air was filled with fear and the burnt smell of gun fire. Several small holes still melted in the surfaces of the thick crates that surrounded the little group. Three men were dead sprawled in unnatural angles on the floor and one dangled from the catwalk a few feet from the ground. The remaining two were clearly wondering if they were going to live to see the end of this little meeting.

Aodhfionn pressed his back against the wall still overwhelmed at the sudden turn in the rather peaceful meeting. He couldn't be more overjoyed to have the paryrm with him, he took a deep breath waiting for the next moment to pass. Praying to whatever higher power that would listen he would be able to return to his daughters in one piece and breathing.

Tanu's eyes shifted toward the man on the left who made the slightest move, he watched the trigger being pressed and his gun answered the challenge. The hot energy beam slammed into the man's head dropping him instantly. "Seems you are all alone. Bad for you." Tanu pointed out.

The last remaining man shifted in his spot weighting his options, this creature was far to crafty for him to take down by himself. He released the gun and slowly placed it on the ground gently kicking it out of reach. "You win."

Aodhfionn breathed a sigh of relief at the surrender, he watched as his bodyguard searched the standing man for hidden weapons before shoving him toward the door. "I want answers," he stated when they were outside in the cool night air. "Who is trying to kill me and my family? I want names."

The information dug into his soul and shook him to the very core, those names were not just random thugs. They were highly organized individuals with shady business surrounding them. It all made sense, of course, they were trying to shatter the office he had taken. No laws or authorities, no reason to fear.

The pair returned to the safety of the mansion and Aodhfionn was quick to double the security around his home. To his great disappointment a call from Tanu's Vicar waited for him. The time was up and Tanu was to return to Hukii City. He cringed at the thought of loosing the paryrm, he searched for some way to keep the peacekeeper longer.

It wasn't until the third time he nearly passed over a paragraph in the contract, he actually read it twice before a smile swept over his lips. "He will have to marry a daughter." Aodhfionn scratched his head. "Which one?"
