章 31: Chapter 31: Just Kids
* It has been a few days since they arrived at the officially registered castle as the servants of Prince Emory. These little kids who up to then bothered everyone now attracted all the curiosities of the palace. Whether it is women of nobles in particular or even soldiers of the castle. That day the weather was fine and the kids had gone outside to play. As he walked through the halls accompanied by his subjects Elfinn stopped at one of the windows and stared outside. There he could see the young Killicks training with the palace guards with wooden swords *.
-I wonder what Prince Emory finds them, they're just monsters. * Says an advisor *.
-Yet they seem to behave well. *Elfinn replied*. To the point that they become the little stars of the castle.
-Force is to recognize that there are some who are well educated. Besides, I suspect the prince of wanting to make them knights of the kingdom.
-That would be a nameless affront to us.
-You are wrong. * Said Elfinn hugging the windowsill *. What Emory wants is just playmates.
* The advisers watched him confuse his reasoning a little *.
-Let these kids flourish. I didn't want anything more to do with those doom killicks. * He said in a cold tone *.
* After which he continued on his way. On the training ground most of the guards had been taken back by the kids but others had managed to gain the upper hand. Sitting by the barn with Varken, Enrik observed a sparring between Dagur and Kaleb *.
-It's soft, I will have hoped for something more energetic from our finalists. * Said Enrik *.
-Said, is it me or is there water in the gas between these two? * Varken asked *. I mean these days they're weird. Did something happen between them?
-Ah that ... Who knows. * Enrik sighed, rolling his eyes *.
* And for good reason, during their first night Enrik could not sleep so he went out for a walk in the hallway to get some fresh air but it was there that he heard some sort of moaning *.
-Not here and not at this hour I'm dying. * Said Dagur *.
-Why not ? Everyone is sleeping we could take advantage of it. * said Kaleb insisting *. You can teach me a few quick tricks.
-I just want to sleep we'll see tomorrow.
-I will not let go until you accept.
* As he was opening the room Enrik Enrikson came across a scene open to interpretation. Kaleb was on top of Dagur and kept him from moving by holding him to the bed by the wrist. Having themselves understood that it was strange the two killicks jumped and Kaleb backed up several meters under the disdainful gaze of Enrik *.
-It's not what you think. * They shouted *.
-I knew the Hyversons were sexual deviants but you my prince.
-No Enrikson it's just ...
-Do not worry. * He said calmly *. I will keep your secret.
* He slowly closed the door, staring at them with disgust as they were embarrassed to death. Since then the two young people no longer spoke and jumped at the slightest opportunity to argue. There on the training ground the exchanges were light but they ended up sending more and more violent blows *.
-It's all your fault. * shouted Kaleb *. You should have accepted my proposal.
- I already told you that we were too young to do it just the two of us.
-Why you don't want me yet I asked you politely, didn't I?
-You could have chosen your timing better. * Said Dagur, striking a blow that cracked the wooden sword *. At this time of night it is very strange. And why do you really want to do it.
-My mother told me that once you do it you become a real man.
-In that case why did you come to me?
-I told myself that since you already have experience in this area, we could do it together. You would teach me things.
-But I don't want to do it with you. * Shouted Dagur *.
-Whyyy? * Kaleb yelled *.
-Wow, this conversation is to put in context. * Specified Enrik *.
-They are weird. * Said Varken *. By the way has anyone seen the kid there? Dagfinn?
-She left to visit the palace with Fryr it seems to me. And why are you asking me I'm not her mother. * He shouted *.
-Don't yell at me moron you're looking for a fight?
-Calm yourself. * Said an officer and lifting them by the collar *. We've had enough of a fight like this.
-So... Sorry sir.
* Basically it was just kids who wanted to hit each other. Through the palace, little Adali wandered all over the place, slipping into places inaccessible to adults. Fryr accompanied her on her journey, she ended up landing in the most remote building in the imperial court. There was no one there but the place was very well maintained. As they drew closer to the place she felt uneasy and refused to go any further *.
-Go Fryr come on. Come on.
* The wolf let out a growl and circled around before taking a few steps back and then sitting down. Adali tried to pull him but he categorically refused so she didn't insist and continued her journey alone. As her heart pounded, she managed to step inside. Again there was no one inside. Nothing except an enormous marble statue or rather a mausoleum representing a man with wings holding a sword *.
-Woaaah. Awesome.
-Isn' it ? * Said a voice behind her *.
* Seized with fear the girl jumped and with a good one she found herself above the statue. The person who surprised her was a man whose face she had trouble seeing. He laughed lightly and displayed a friendly smile *.
- Come on my daughter I'm not going to eat you.
-My daughter ? * She wondered *.
* She jumped up and went down right in front of him. She thus saw her priestly clothes with a Phoenix pattern *.
-Good to meet you little warrior.
* Elsewhere the young people had finished training and rested. There was only Dagfinn and Prince Emory left, trading blows *.
-If all Killicks kids are like that, I can't even imagine adults. * Said a soldier *.
-If they had real swords they would have stabbed themselves, you think?
-Oh war is a game for them what do you want?
* A young man passed behind their backs and gave them a grim look *.
-War is not a game.
-Oh... Yes Captain Arguson.
* Once the young man walked away they began to whisper again *.
-He's been weird since his campaign in Solon.
-Yeah he did.
* On the pitch Dagfinn humiliated Emory enough not even bothering to look him in the eye he easily parried his attacks. The young boy was pissed off at such disrespect, but so was Dagfinn *.
-Hey can I know why it is me who stuck with the prince?
-You're the weakest of us so you stick to it without flinching. * Shouted Sheehan *.
-What ? Bring you back and see if I'm weak.
* As he looked away Emory punched Dagfinn in the fingers which forced him to drop his weapon. The young prince then pointed his sword to his throat and the Killick remained motionless *.
-I could be. * Made a guard *. The prince won.
-He is our prince. He deal.
-I ... I won. I won.
-That's what happens when you don't take your job seriously. * Said Enrik with a mean smile *.
-Weak. * Said Sheehan very quietly *.
* Dagfinn picked up the wooden sword and glared at Emory who was savoring his victory. He put his hand on her shoulder and smiled at her *.
-Your Majesty ?
-S.. Something wrong Dagfinn?
-Rematch. * He said calmly *.
* Needless to say, Emory got badly outmatch in the following rounds. But seeing how hard Dagfinn got there he must have been locked in a dungeon while waiting for the prince to recover. At nightfall the band had gathered on the back terrace of the palace which originally served as the prince's private corner. They had installed a carpet there on which they could sit, a canvas above their heads as a windbreak and small trinkets to play such as a chess board. There was also a table and a few chairs just in case. From where they were they chatted and laughed about the day they had just spent *.
-Frankly he is abusing, he shouldn't have bothered like that on the prince. * Said Varken *. It's a bit like our employer.
* Dagur who was seated in front of Emory was remaking his feelings *.
- Yet I said that I did not want us to imprison him. * Said Emory who feel sorry *.
-The facts are there, he still breaks your arm. * Said Dagur *.
- Too bad you're not a Killick, it would regenerate in less than two minutes this kind of injuries. * Said Sheehan waving his arm in front of the prince *.
-Oh don't worry, it will snap back into place by itself. * Said Emory confident *.
* The others watched him a little surprised to see him smile in such a situation. Dagur then noticed the phoenix medallion around the prince and wanted to touch it *.
-What is...
* But the medallion pecked him slightly *.
-Ah don't be careful, it's a protective talisman that my brother gave me. He has been very useful to me so far, but I cannot rely on him indefinitely.
-I see.
* Dagur's finger was bleeding and had to apply a little Efrat unfortunately the wound did not close. Enrik noticed him and gave him a look *.
-A relic. * they said to each other *.
- By the way I'm starting to worry, has someone seen little Adali sometimes? * Sheehan asked *.
* The instant he mentioned her name she had just entered the prince's room with Fryr circling around her *.
-Adali we looked for you everywhere where were you?
-Hey me ...
* She was a little hesitant to answer, but she had spent a whole day chatting with a strange man in an even stranger place *.
-I played with Fryr, we visited the palace.
-Ah, OK. * He said simply *. Well he was so tight to go eat nah.
-What do we do for Dagfinn we should go and release him, right? * Varken asked *.
-Too bad for Dagfinn I'll take his share. * Said Sheehan *.
* Recklessness was the word. But this carelessness had to have its limits. Hiding towards the roof, hooded people watched the little band, who were having fun, smiling and laughing *.
-Youth is beautiful. * Said the man *.
-Especially since the Killicks remain young for several decades.
-So the world is sacked by eternal teens in need of action.
-Still not. * Smiles the woman *. Come on, we have to do our report.
* Once in the dining room the young people gathered as usual around a large table. Emvis being absent and the king not wanting to dine, only Prince Elfinn, his wife Josie and the prince remained. That day the chief had surpassed himself and offered a king's feast as it pleases his majesty. The waiter took care to cut the meat himself to season it and put it on everyone's plate. After a quick prayer Elfin attacks his plate *.
-Enjoy your meal.
* Suddenly the Killicks kids around the table exchange their plates and begin to circle them around the table. It looked like juggling but on a small scale *.
-Shit. * thought the waiter *. I don't know what plate the poison is on now.
-Interesting your game. What are you doing here? * Asked Elfinn *.
-Oh a little tradition from home before meals. * Explained Kaleb *. That way there is no dissatisfaction or jealousy.
-I did not understand everything but ok.
* In the end Sheehan found himself with the poisoned plate and the others stared at him with a mean smirk *.
-These motherfuckers. *he says to him*.
*He smiled back at them and started his meal*.
-Hey but it's delicious.
-Eh ? * wondered Dagur *. You laugh.
- No kidding.
* He began to devour his meal like a barbarian. Varken walked over and Sheehan cut him a piece *.
- Damn it's delicious.
* The other Killicks ended up devouring Sheehan's meal. Unfortunately theirs was not as good. Emory didn't even finish his plate so the others took advantage. After the meal Elfinn left the table and the waiter went to the kitchen *.
- What the fuck are these kids how can they swallow such a quantity of poison? * He wondered *.
-You. * Said a voice behind his back *.
* He turned and came face to face with Prince Elfinn *.
- Hope you had a reason why this Killick's dish was so delicious.
-My ... Majesty I ...
* In the dining room everyone was sated and stretched out with their feet on the table. At least the killicks *.
- Besides, Kaleb, what's your little scene this morning? I thought you weren't in a rivalry with Dagur. * Varken asked *.
-Oh that. * They sighed *.
-Bah basically Kaleb jumped on me and asked me to teach him how to make love.
-What are you messing around? * Sheehan hissed *. Because you have experienced yourself?
-I already did ... Crac crac
* Sheehan swallowed his water crooked *.
-And what's the problem? * Varken asked *.
-Bah we are ... Two guys ... I'm not going to do that with him.
-He ... But you're completely nuts. * Said Kaleb *. You're a guy, I'm not gonna do it with you.
-What ? You climbed on top of me.
-As my mother would say Hyversons are all deviants. * Said Sheehan *.
- Yeah you're wrong Dagur had to read between the lines too. * Said Varken *.
-But he jumped on me. * He shouted *. Enrik says something.
* But the young boy just looked away *.
-Dirty deals.
* The next day very early the boys went to the dungeon to get their friend out *.
"Hey, Dagfinn's head when we tell him the feast he missed." * Said Sheehan *.
-It was not bad your plate is true.
* Once in front of his cell they made a rather surprising discovery. There was already nothing and nobody. Dagfinn was no longer he had flown *.
-It could be truuuue * Said Dagur *. what a FOOL.
