Untold Stories

"My son please before they come and we make our last stand on the bloody plain, listen. The spies are many and my life was to be cut short no matter the outcome. The mastermind is someone strong yet over looked, beware the Archer."

With that warning, the stand was many and quickly swept away. The bodies like flowers sprinkled about the ground. Red pillows and luster metal, all was left by the Vanguards and Formans. This battle was more like pigs being sent to slaughter.

"The Knight Prince? Well here I thought you would have more to fight for, to rumble with." Blooded and proud in it's crooked way, Jake stood before a beaten Zekeru. "Looks like Issac was right, too beat your brains couldn't match his."

With that all was over and Zekeru's role was just about finished, as the blackness lifts the whispers of nobles and enthusiasm of the auctioneer brought him to the moment at hand.

To what was once the falling actions, the ending prelude of a prince, has finally become the moment of comeback. His moment, the golden chance to change his fate even after the downfall had come.

"H… ..ey … HEY!" Black Fire screams to Menokii.

"W.. where am I?" Dazed by the brilliant lights seeping past the curtain.

Looking past the lights to see rows of masked nobles, eye's scanning the crowd as Black Fire tries to feed all the information he can.

Menokii stares and once again the moments of fate align his eyes on the blackened figure.

'Hey Black Fire, what about….'

Just before the question could cross his mind, the crowd gasped.

"2 million, going once… going twice.. Sold."

The figure eyes are glowing with power and knowledge,

'I must use her for my mission, I can feel a good fate.'

Smiling with eyes of desperation

Meeting and the next move been planned.

"Geez, making a flash romance in your place right now?"

Black Fire laughing with his ignorance is bless.

Unaware of the Pandora's box to come.

'How will I know I will go to them?'

"Hmm just who are you talking about?" Black Fire staring the crowd til his eyes grow wide.

"Well of course you will, just leave it to me."

Black Fire disappears into the blinding lights and darkness beyond that.

The auction continued and Menokii was til no end nervous. Here the moment of truth alluded him.

'O Black Fire, where did you go? I can't see you from here.'

The blackness of a roaring abyss, crowds screaming bids and whispering. Slaves, maidens, servants and guards, were fuel to the bidding fire. The roar never stopped, was endless in the darkness.

"O where is Black Fire? I feel like I did that day…"

….

"Can you see he?"

"Yeah he looks weird."

….

".. I feel I have waited an eternity.."

As he worries, the joint force has made a miracle appear from the dust in the air.

"Hey do you think this will do? I am following your lead after all."

…..

"Ok fine, fine I trust you enough for this much. Thanks."

Menokii grows more and more worried as time passes on, the outstanding finale drawing nearer with each breathe. Each breathe, and the encroaching ever so deadly finish, the cloaked silhouette of a shapeless figure becomes the apple of his eyes and the last of his hope to avoid death.

Then the air fills with an uncomfortable silence, and it was then that his heart sank. The perverted gleam in the crowd twinkled like never before, the excitement finally reaching it's max.

The last to fall, the last to go and the spirited of the stage all rang in the air, the steps echoed, but the stage stayed barren.

' W-what can I do? Where are you?…' Palms like the tsunamis; strong, shaking and wet, leaking into the ocean beneath him. The roaring of cages and metal scrapping, like thunder in the night.

Lastly the force finally pushed him to the stages center. Slow as he moves, swifter the light flood his eyes. The storm roaring harder and louder, the crowd was swift to the liveliness. His feet unsteady and swaying like a newborn fawn, bearing his vulnerability to the wolfs.

"What a gorgeous 'prince', isn't he~"

"Such a strong back, broad and toned~"

Swooning and trapped in the image moving slowed by fear.

"Now this is the prince that is long awaited. Momokii Kingdom's fallen 'Knight Prince'! Don't you want to sleep with royalty or feel the protection of a Fallen Knight Prince?"

The crowd screams, echoed in chamber like wolfs of the forest, hungry and ready to feed. Their sights set on the lamb of a prince left in their wake, this is the end of a second chance.

"What can I do now? I-if things don't work I'm done…."

"Now audience are you ready to place your bids on this charming prince?"

Suddenly the crowds roar goes silent, almost as if they were struck with sleep at random or the whirling wind of faerie took their voices away. The auctioneer looked at the silent audience with surprise in every fiber of his being.

Then rises a lone figure, the apple of his eye, the one he had bet his second chance on.

"I bid 5 million!"

The crowd stunned and still can't speak

"Bid of 5 million, going once …"

The auctioneer pauses expecting another bid, but all is silent.

"Going twice… Sold to the black cloak."

"What!?!?!"

"That wasn't fair!"

"Someone must have cheated!"

"This isn't right!"

The crowd suddenly roars to life swiftly after the bid had closed. The crowd sure someone chatted but could not figure how they did it and so they simply complained.

"I'm sorry everyone that was the last sale today. The Auction is over, please make your exit and collect your earnings." The auctioneer nervous as this has never happened to him before.

The people leave, some having not won a single things and other's going a separate way to pick up the Slaves they now own. In this moment, everyone had eyes on the figure i black wondering who they may be. They followed half forgetting if they had anything.

"The crowd is growing, what sure we do? What if they stop the bidder from getting you! What should we do?" Black Fire frantic as he comes in swift to understand the next steps.

"There you are, hmm…. Somehow I don't this crowd of people could stop them. I think they are destine for greatness."

Come back next time to see what happens to the black cloak individual and what will be in store. See you later!
