Midas checks to see if Blaze is in his room "Milord? Are you here?"
Midas looks around the room "I suppose he got ready for departure.
Perhaps he is at the Village Front. Midas hurries back to the
village and looks around for Blaze.
Blaze walks around and walks past Midas with out knowing "I hope no
one ever finds out... Best they dont know the truth..." Blaze is
still mumbling to himself. He is doing a bit more quietly now.
''here then'' jacob said, finishing off his apple.
he reached into his pocket and tossed another apple to her.
~~~
amber had changed into her leather armor and was heading for the
village, bow and quiver on her back ready to go.
Crystal smiles and dives her fangs into the apple and sucks it dry.
She giggles and throws the dried apple away "Thanks. It must be odd
that i am a vampire who does not drink blood what so ever.".
Midas noticed immediately when Blaze passed by "Milord!" Midas bows
"I've been looking for you and have a few concerns. First, as the
Heir to the throne, it is dangerous for you to travel the town
alone, especially at night, AND with you being the LAST heir to the
throne. For your safety you should notify one of us so we can be
there in case something were to happen." Midas states his first
concern
jacob shrugged and let go of the branch, floating in midair before
he landed on his feet.
''nothing that strange, some vampire's prefer that kinda diet..
where as i prefer blood'' he said.
Blaze gets startled and turns around and puts his hand on his heart
and takes a deep breath "You almost gave me a heart attack Midas!"
Blaze seems mad "Also I can handle myself at night! But not if you
guys keep trying to follow me at night! It is safer to be alone at
night for me!" Blaze makes a sound that almost sounds like a deep
growl "Now go back and check on the others before I force you to!
Remember:I am still older then you!" Blaze huffs and hands Midas
the orange and walks away from him a bit.
Crystal sighs "I cant even stand the sight of blood at times."
Crystal yawns and uncontrollablely lays down to rest.
Midas holds back Blaze by grabbing him by the should "Please hold
Milord, I still have another Concern. I have been told that you
fear me by Crystal, I'd like to know why this is so. I have sworn
my life to serving you. I've trained since I turned four! I would
not dare harm you in respect to my father. That is all, I just
wished to let you understand that you shouldn't fear me." Midas
assured "However, I am not leaving your side, you may be the
Prince, but my duty is to keep you safe." Midas vows
Blaze pushes Midas away "and i am doing my duty to keep my kingdom
safe!" Blaze growls loudly "I need to calm down and you are not
helping! I dont trust you because i know you would kill me if you
found out the truth on why i want to be alone!" Blaze sounds in a
lot of pain and walks away faster and trys to calm down.
"Milord, I could say it thousands of times and I would to prove to
you, I would never harm you." Midas vows "And I shall do My duty to
protect this kingdom by protecting you. Lord Blaze" Midas bows
Blaze sighs "Lets put you to the test then..... I need to get this
helmet off for a short bit anyway....." Blaze looks at Midas and
takes off his helmet. He releaves that he had turned into one of
those monsters "Dont tell a single soul my secret. I can keep
myself under control at night as long as i dont get to mad. I am a
vary rare case..... Control is not easy when others are around me
at night even though i ask for alone time. It just makes me so mad
that you guys always go against this one wish i have at night!"
Blaze trys to calm down and takes a few deep breaths and puts back
on his helmet.
Midas steps back in shock and reaches for his rapier, holding back
a bit... "M-milord...y-your...one of them..." Midas began
speculating things. "Then could even that tale be a lie? Was it
really a Maid who killed your siblings, Who killed my father? Was
she merely uses as a Scape Goat to leave a corrupted Royal in
control!?" Midas grabs his Rapier but doesn't unsheathe it yet "If
you could go wild at any second, then..." Midas draws his Rapier
"For the good of this kingdom..." Midas glares at Blaze "I shall
slay you."
Blaze backs up "calm down Midas! I only got this form 5 years ago!
you know?! when i started wearing armor bigger then me!" Blaze
sighs and seems vary scared "I knew i should not have showed you
this! You just cant be trusted with this type of stuff! Besides!
why would i want my sisters dead!?" Blaze starts to cry "I still
miss them! I still regret i could not have helped them! I miss Lily
and Flora....." Blaze takes off his helmet again and sits down on
the ground and just crys "I wish i could have saved them....."
Blaze gets up and loses control a little and grabs out his sword
but quickly regains control and puts it back "sorry. I also tend to
lose control when upset like that....." Blaze puts back on his
helmet "I better go back to checking outside the village for
others..... stay away from me so i dont lose control..... and keep
your mouth shut about it. You are not to be trusted..... that is
clear.....".
''prince blaze, sorry if i seemed a little late for patrol's... i
was making sure i had enough arrows'' amber said as she came down
the street towards the two.
~~~
jacob sighed and picked crystal up bridal style, then carried her
off towards the castle.
Blaze looks over at her "No. dont worry over it. Just let me be
alone......" Blaze rushes away to outisde the village and then sits
on a log and calms down a good bit "I miss my sisters so much. I
wish they were still alive..... I wish my dad had never hired that
maid. I sometimes even wish i was never a prince.....".
Midas follows Blaze "I will make sure that this kingdom is safe."
Midas walks up behind Blaze and laughs
"I'M the one that can't be trusted? You're the one who could
go berserk at any moment! I lived on my own in the streets because
of those beasts! You at least had some family left!" Midas tears up
but still scowls "As for my explanation for if you were to kill
your siblings, it's quite easy to figure out. When you're one of
those beasts, you have no control. You may have not been the one
responsible of the Castle Massacre, but that doesn't mean I can
trust you with your new form of being." Midas walks in front of
Blaze dragging his sword across the ground then pointing it inches
from Blazes face "I will take your stead in the journey, because
I am the only one leaving this alive!" Midas laughs, tears
falling to the ground "Prepare to breath your last
breath...Corrupted Prince!"
Blaze sighs and bows his head "I am sorry. I just am scared of
you..... always have been. I lost my cool and said my true feelings
on you..... I am sorry..... at least i will join my sisters.....
but first you should talk to my dad and learn the thing i was truly
trying to hide..... I had found out he had known that maid was one
of those monsters. I only know this because after the death of my
sisters i went to go to my room when i over heard him say so. I
have no proof of him saying that but i still have some proof. it is
not as good though..... I can control my self at night. Just as
long as i dont get to upset or mad. If I dare point my weapon at
someone i trust with my life i can easily gain control. though i
fear and sometimes dont trust you with a secret I do trust you with
my life..... at least I did....." Blaze lays down and closes his
eyes "Now do your worst..... i wont fight..... I cant fight..... I
dont want to hurt you or Crystal. you are like siblings to
me......".
(i seriously don't know what to do soooo... i'm just gonna jump in
i guess)
''and i am not going to let that happen'' came a voice as an arrow
sank straight into midas's arm that was holding the rapier.
amber walked over and held a notched arrow in her bow, aimed right
at midas.
Blaze looks over at amber "Leave. this is not your fight. Besides.
I kind of deserve this. I did steal that orange i got for Crystal.
I took crystal in so i could have someone i could treat like a
little sister again after all.".
Midas raises his blade upward, but stabs the ground between them
"You mean...your father KNEW, that maid could kill someone at any
moment, and instead of executing her, he invited her into the
castle!" Midas kicks a tree down "Forget it! I'll let you live, but
if you so far step an inch out of line, I'll be there to take you
down immediately." Midas then feels a sharp pain in his right arm
"What the-!" Midas looks over to Amber and pulls the arrow out of
his arm flinching "Calm down, and don't get involved in things that
don't involve you, things just got settled...for now." Midas looks
angrily at the Castle
