World of darkness : Book two : back from the dead

Part 21 : the young bandit

( pov Patrick)

We had captured only one of the bandits and they seemed very young probably 15 to 17 at most youngest bandit I've ever seen

He of course wasn't fond of being held captive we had to tie his arms behind his back to make sure he couldnt attack us as much or effective

Theo ordered us to bring him to the lake near by that theo well had for special reasons . Azura came out of her hiding spot and followed along with us as we made are way to the small lake in the city walls so we wouldn't risk attack directly on us

Azura " are you ok i you have bruises on your face from being punched ....why didn't you have you helmet on !!".....to be honest i kinda forgot i had a helmet on this thing I'm not use to this armour so i forget what some times it does because ive onyl just got it as of 2 hours ago

" look I'm not use to the armour besides the only real pain on my face was from Diana" i joked and she slightly laughed but was still gonna make sure i used my helmet next time I got in a fight

It weird ive barely known azura but she already cared for me as if we knew each other for years ...I'm glad to have her trust and be able to trust her myself it was nice to have some friendship like this ...does that sound weird ?

I looked back a the bandit being pulled behind us by another guard and wondered what theo was doing .....oh he was probably gonna ...i should ask him

I ran up to theo as he made his way near the frozen edge of the lake but close enough to land her wont sink far if the ice breaks

" uhh sir may i ask what's your plan with the prisoner ?" Theo slightly laughed and smiled

Theo " Patrick i feel this is the perfect time to teach you how to interrogate some one bring the .bandit here !!"he ordered the guard who had him

He was forced to kneel in front of theo and looked up and me and theo

Theo " whats your name there child " the bandit almost growled at him when he said child but he answered the question

Daryll " my name is Daryll and thats all your getting out of me " he closed his eyes and look away from us signalling he wasnt gonna to talk

Theo grew a smile on his

Theo " well in that case ...feed him to the eels " he ordered me

I brought him to the the edge of the ice close to the water his hands still tied ....i wasnt sure this was the best idea

Daryll " d-did he say eels !?!?!?!" He said panicked looks like some one has a fear of eels

We saw the water moving as the eels swam underneath the surface

Daryll " ...those wouldn't happen to be friendly eels right ...the ones that you clearly have as a harmless pet ?"theo laughed slightly the walked up to me and Daryll

Theo " if a giant deadly poisonous eel that can eat you in one bit is harmless then yes " i will never understand why he keeps these eels but i can question it

One of the eels jumped out of the water trying to eat us but it couldn't make it we were just out of their reach one step further and your dead before you get water in your lungs

Theo was looking at me with a look that i didnt know what he was trying to say but all i know is that it definitely was him expecting me to drop Daryll in which i didnt want to do
