ren walks into the castle with a limp still wounded but moving he bows to seloban Mon Seigneur I bring you the head of Epsie, leader of the dragon stealing operation, husband of Judas!!....and their egg! he pulls out two bags, one covered in dried blood and the other containing an egg I ..accomplished my mission my lord looking up at Seloban
seloban looks at him as he stares .... good work.... but I do have a question for you ren
Oui my lord anything

The great mothers home was closer...I didn’t want everybody to see me in that condition, to worry about me he looks away I know I made everybody worry and I’m sorry ...
I didn’t have the strength to even open a portal
seloban sighs as he looks to the bags just burn them I dont want to see
ren bows his head... yes my lord taking the bags he takes them down to the incinerators throwing the head in then stops looking at the egg...
*some of the men work not paying him any mind
ren sighs sorry..throwing the egg into the fire he closes the incinerator slowly limping away back up the stairs
Tyrion waiting for him finally back I see?
Oui...lighting a cigarette what do you want tyrion?
he reaches out snuffing out the cigarette healing you come on
ren growls then groans slowly following him my cigarettes arnt cheap you know!
bill me
ren huffs going into tyrions office
he goes to a table come let's heal you
he sighs don’t need healing limping to the table
I need a smoke and whisky
Tyrion doesnt look at him that's bullshit and you know it
Well a drink still would be nice ears Folding back
he sighs as he goes to him checking him over we can have one after this.... selobans orders
he sighs fine holding the table for balance looking like shit, his suit filled with holes, all wrinkled and torn. His gloves and mask torn and messed up. Ren looking done with life in general
he continues working looking up at him do you wanna tell me why you look like you dont want me doing this and you just wanna go drown yourself?
...when you’ve killed so many people ...you get alittle tired ...I just killed an egg on selobans orders....he looks to his hands ...I killed a child ...And now an egg
Tyrion looks up it's okay ren
rens hands shake. Putting his hands down he tries to calm down I ...killed innocent children
Tyrion stands pulling him close giving a hug
rens eyes widen in shock then squints tearing up but holds it in
his cold heart melting alittle as he slowly holds onto tyrion back lightly
he holds him patting his head
he slowly lets him go looking away....how’s vivian trying to take his mind off things
he looks at him she is fine... dont avoid the subject
I’m not ...I deserve to know how my child is doing...and Arishma
I sacrificed a lot for the safety of the kingdom...I have the right to know how my family is doing sitting on the table his leg about to give out
I..I just need to know sadness and regret in his voice
your daughter and grandson are fine... happy as can be... aki is away arms havnt been back in awhile
He ..hasent?!? Where did he go?!
human world I think we sent guards but nothing
he sighs...at least its safe there for now ....who knows what undefinable insanity emerges from the depths of the human world
pulling out his cigarette case and opening it. A picture of ren, aki and baby vivian in the holder, closing the case he lights the cancer stick taking in a long breath
ty watches him about ti say something but drops it
ren relaxes. As it settles his nerves
Tyrion watches him before looking away
ren slowly stands I’m guessing we are done? I feel alittle better
not yet kiddo... you have been requested by toyion.. he is in the gardens
T-toyion? Okay then alittle confused never really spoke to Toyion before I guess I’ll make my way to the gardens..give my love to Prima for me leaving as he goes to the gardens looking for toyion, finding Nureil looking at a flower bed crying and mumbling to himself
(aki and ren and nuriel and toyions kids!!)
toyion sits nearby watching as he looks over hello ren...
(Oh yeah me and my memory lol) ren looks to toyion and walks to him hello father..bowing his head I see mother is...not having a great day
he looked sad he will die soon
....yes..I can tell watchiing Nuriel weakly tring to garden
he looks to toyion....what do you need to see me about? Do you need me to steal intelligence? Spy on sombody? Get dirt?....assassinate?
no... I think... we should all be together when he passes and vivian knows where aki is... bring ski home so he can see you both one more time
Bring aki home? ...he looks away...I don’t think aketchi wants to even see me let alone come with me
please ren.... we should all be home to say goodbye
ren looks to him I’ll try I promise I will do my best!
he smiles hugging him and kissing his forhead
he looks to him with his tired eyes then turns getting to work, finding vivian in the drawing room he sits outside it for a while, scared to face her, wonder I what she will say or do to him
she works on a painting mundee walking up to the room with tea and snacks seeing him well well well...
ren glances at mundee then away, back leaning against the wall Crossing his arms
mundee walks up handing him the tray take this to vivian I have to get ari he walks away
watching him leave ren straightens himself up looking alittle more nicer he walks in gently putting the tray down next to vivian
she looks over seeing ren as she gasps jumping up setting down the brush hugging him Daddy!!
his eyes widen in shock as he slowly wraps his arms around her ma petite fleur, Vivian ...je suis désolé holding her tightly his eyes water
she holds him close with a smile oh daddy I missed you
I missed you too...you have no idea how much I missed you! How much I missed Arishma! trying not to cry from happiness and hatred for himself
she looks at him with a smile kissing his cheeks we thought you were dead
I thought I was too...countless times ...I got so scared that I would fail..and they would come after you and Arishma...I’m sorry I couldent keep in contact. They would of either followed me or intercepted my letters
it is okay dad.... have you seen mom?
I have ..kind of ...I ..I kind of ...broke up with him...he holds her shoulders just remember! I still love you to the end of the earth and back! It’s just...I can’t give your mother what he needs ...he looks away I wish I could though...I still love him to death
she stares and smiles you could have dad...
It’s ...more complicated then that...going to the window looking out of it....Vivian...can you tell me where aketchi is? ...I need to see him..bring him home your grandmother needs to see us all together
she looks you won't like the answer
he turns to her why!! Is he in danger?! Is he with sombody dangerous?! worry in his voice
no... he is with tim...
Oh ..he relaxes sombody loyal to us...okay I will go meet him..bring aketchi home..and talk to aketchi as well...just talk

he kisses her cheeks gently as he turns into a human, opening a portal and walking though it, entering from behind Tim’s home he walks out the front and knocks on the door
tim answers in shock.... ren?
Oh um..Bonjour tim! Is Aki here?
ah ... yea... aki walks up on Jean's and a shirt looking at him ren?? what are you....?

Okay, I’ll wait for you ren leans on the wall ....I’ve missed you aki....I’m sorry I said thoughs things to you...I’m so sorry pulling out his cigarette case looking at the photo as he pulls out a cigarette
tim stares at him wanting to say something but keeps quiet
lighting the cigarette and closes the case tucking it neatly back into his suits hidden poket unaware of tim and aketchi
ad aki comes down tim looks at him do you want me to come too? aki looks no it's okay I will be back soon
ren opens a portal come aki, Mother is waiting
r-right.... he looks at tim giving him a kiss before going though
rens mouth drops looking shocked his feet feeling like they are glued to the floor boards
tim smiles looking after aki
snapping out of it he glares daggers inhaling the whole cigarette before flicking it and putting it out on tims porch before walking though the portal too
tim watches him leave aki waiting for ren outside the portal
ren walks though the portal closing it...WHAT WAS THAT?!
I'm allowed to kiss my partner... BROTHER....
that was goodbye... remember?! he turns for the castle holding back tears
following him holding back his tears and anger keeping his distance
he holds himself looking away as he cries silently........
entering the castle horribly upset....I still love you aki...don’t ever forget that ...not looking at him
aki flinches stopping dead in his tracks .............. i....
ren stops just a few feet from him looking at him
he stares at him glaring at him after a moment moving into his face you said we were done... you broke up with me!! it's been weeks and I have moved on... I found someone who is there for me and gives a shit!! now you come back and say that shit?!?! tears pour down his face glaring at him
And every moment I said that! I regretted it! Every day that passed I’ve hated myself more and more! pulling out his cigarette case looking at the photo of them all looking so happy..... what happend to us?
he glares you stopped giving 2 shots and would just leave us behind.... he removes rens ring holding it.... you made a promise to me long ago and you have broken it several times
he says nothing looking away in defeat
he pushes the ring into his hands ..... I'm done pretending I'm not hurt by you
ren looks at the ring in his hands then to aketchi tears rolling down his face before disappearing footsteps can be heard as they leave
he begins to cry hard falling to his knees as he gives a scream MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!!!! footsteps approach as tim lifts him into his arms T-rim?!
tim holds him in his arms cry ...cry until you can’t anymore... I’ll be with you forever
he holds him crying hard as some guards run up seeing them after hearing the scream..... t-tim!?!
tim holds him close it’s okay gentleman, we had a...hard talk ...I’m comforting prince akin
they all smile with a nod of corse come inside the castle
tim holding his hand and kisses his forehead it’ll be nice to see everybody...will you be okay?
worried for him holding aki close
aki nods.... take me inside tim....
he nods taking him inside holding him close I guess we are looking for lord Toyion?
nid* yea
I’m guessing in the gardens? getting looks from servants as they whisper seeing tim hold aketchi close
smi nods looking forward. .
he stays quiet taking him to the garden, Nureil sitting under the Hoyte tree that he grew with blood mumbling to himself
toyion cries watching him... he is gonna die
nuriel looks up at a branch what are you doing up there ren? You’ll hurt yourself! ...where’s Yu? I miss Yu the branch being empty
tim sets aki down as he smiles going to toyion... hello mum
toyion cuddles aki tightly as he cries thank you for coming...nureil still talking to the branch ren nobody can see you... come on now ..don’t be scared toyion crying he’s not there Nureil...

toyion cries hard holding his head oh nuriel.... my nuriel.... aki cries looking to ren meeting his eyes as he cries mouthing "I'm sorry"
ren just looks to aki and hugs him just needing to be held, shaking as he holds him
aki holds him crying as he looks to nuriel.....
Nuriel laying limp on the tree looking like he’s in a deep peaceful sleep
aki cries looking down at him goodbye dearest mother....
the guards come gently picking him up ren watches staying close to aki and toyion as he sniffles

aki falls into his arms as toyion cries it was his time
tim holds aki close I remeber Nuriel ...how he helped the poor communities. He was so kind, how he handed out food and clothes. And he was so smart

Oh? Is your freind a green thumb?
he gives a sad smile whatever you want or need...Nuriel will get the best send off!
he noods as he hugs him before turning walking out of the castle
the guards watch him leave as dragons go about their evening
aki goes walking into the forest past the animals knowing none will attack him as he walks getting to an old moss covered shack
the shack quiet only the birds cherp in the distance
aki gives a sigh going to the shack knocking hello? sir are you here?
a shuffling noise is heard as a little goblin awnsers the door smiling ahhh! Dear Aketchi opening the door come in! I haven’t seen you in a while! insode the cabin is huge, filled with flowers, the walls decorated with gold and marble as exotic birds fly though the huge house
in the middle of the marble flooring is a long fish pond as koi gently swim
aki smiles walking in hello viran... I wish I could say I visit you today with happy tidings but... that would be a lie
Oh dear ...give me your hand holding out his own
he holds our his hand staring to cry again
taking his hands feeling his emotions, everything he saw and felt...so lord Nuriel is gone...and ren did too...I see my deepest condolences dear aketchi
he cries looking at him we would be honored to have you at the funeral
Yes, come I’ll get you a cup of tea...it looks like you need a minute to sit taking his hand as he walks him to a lavish room filled with beautiful smelling flowers, as butterfly’s flutter with a cute little table and chairs, comfortable enough to seat a goblin or an elf but just alittle to small to sit a dragon or a fully grown human sit
aki walks in with a smile as he curls up on himself thank you
viran leaves and comes back alittle later with a tray of tea and cakes, the little delicate porcelain cups look like ones from a very expensive and old children’s play set, pouring the tea and handing him a slice of cake I’ll be happy to attend the leaving of the world ...do you need me to bring anything?
yes.... do you still have his seeds?
I do! Everything is safe here sitting down sipping the tea are you going to plant them?
I wish to plant them by his grave so he can ... he can be there

Ren broke up with you eh, just be careful...ren is a stone cold killer ...who knows when he will unleash his anger or frustration...I sense his work is done for now...this is the most dangerous part for you and him...I can sense it
aki looks sad I know... I fear what will happen

yes... I think so...
he nods okay then come on then going to the door putting on a cloak, hiding a small dagger on him

aki sees as he fights back getting the strength to punch ren in the face being dropped Stop!! viran is my friend and you will release him now!!! standing as straight as he can glaring
ren gives a sick grin eyes flashing but it disappears the guards scared not knowing what to do then why all of a sudden? You where writhing in pain! That monster did somthing!

tim nods and kisses him tenderly tyrion will save our child ...I know he can opening the medical ward laying aki down as the medics come to look aki over
aki lays still holding back the pain as viran watches from the door
tyion runs to him pushing the bed into his emergency room as tim sits down worried for aketich and his unborn
viran goes to him it will be alright.... he will be okay
Are you sure?....I hope so....this ...this is my first egg worried as he gets up starting to pace
viran watches him pace as he sits on the floor I am sure... he has probably become stressed with the loss of nuriel and the fact ren is unstable
tim continues to pace...that seems right...I’m still so worried*
viran watches him that makes you a wonderful mate then
I wish I can do more to help soghing
viran smiles up at him you will when you are able
tim nods taking a seat next to him...thank you for helping...I’m sorry that our men arrested you and gaged your
he shrugs pulling out a small corded bracelet I am a goblin
I’m guessing there arnt many goblins left? We don’t see many ...if not ever
they are more north but I prefer being here.... more life he looks up as Tyrion walks out
tim stands is he okay?! Please tell me he’s okay! all worried
Tyrion looks and smiles he over exerted himself and stressed out his body that's all. it could have been worse if he hadn't drank some herbal tea
tim sighs in relief thank the gods...you where right mr. Viran....can..can I see him? See aki?
Tyrion nods letting him in as viran stands with a bow I shall return tomorrow
tim bows his head to viran thank you mr viran ...um here pulling off a ring from his finger if you have any trouble with the guards show them my ring...I may have retired but they all still know this symbol
he boys looking to Tim don't leave alone..... ren is a danger to him right now
I won’t leave him I promise...will you be okay getting him mr. Viran?
I'll be fine.... but.... in case I dont arrive tomorrow he pulls from his him a small blue bag I was friends with lord nuriel.... if I dont arrive tomorrow it means I have been killed. plant these seeds near nuriels grave.... he always wanted them there he turns walking out holding his daggar close
tim watches him leave holding the bag....I will I promise...going into the recovery room staying with aki holding his hand
as viran walks he knows he is being watched making his was to the forest still feeling eyes on him I know your there come out
becoming visable standing right behind viran
he glances back going to kill me huh? well if I die they will know you did it....
Is the knife in my hands? Non I’m not that stupid ...unless that’s what you want...that you want to die
well then, what do you want ren?
You know an awful lot of information...what is your secrets? How did I not find out about you until know slowly circling him
Do you have agents working for you? Can you see and hear three walls?! hissing
he watches him circle him you think nuriel stayed quiet about his children? you think I didnt listen to him dode on you. I know who you all are
You know nothing of me....hissing his long fangs showing you don’t know what I lost! What I gave up for this kingdom!
he looks unphased you seduced your brother and you two formed a relationship. you had a child together. but since you disappeared and refused to rely on others, even ones you knew could kill and defend like you, you lost his love
He glaresand I’ll get it back...by force if I have too ...I won’t kill you ...you’re not worth my time...but get in my way and I will end not only you but your racehe goes invisible walking off*
he watches him as best he can before returning home
ren goes to the castle locking himself in his drinking room sitting on his lavish chair as he drinks his sorrows away watching the fire flicker
aki sitting up with a smile sorry for worrying everyone
tim holding him it’s okay...oh I’m so glad that you are okay...putting a hand on his belly that our child is okay...
aki smiles kissing him
tim kisses him back and blushes my love...I know this is a bad time but...I was wondering Pulling out a small ring box my one and only love..will you be my one and only? My partner for life? Till our forever flight?
aki blushes looking at it the nurses looking in shock...... yes.... I will....
tim smiles and cries kissing him
