A Tale of A Rich Man and His Loyal Servant

Chapter Ten: The Start of Hell

August 7th, 1866

Rann was growing weak for some reason, he didn't bring it up with Billiam for many reasons. And here's just a small list of them!

1. Billiam would probably dismiss it and tell him to work
2. He would probably be ignored
3. Who is he kidding? He won't get the caring side of Billiam ever in his life.
4. He'd probably be turned over to XD
5. He'd be killed and sacrificed to the egg.

So right now he was leaning against a wall holding his chest, gasping for air. He felt like he was dying, but he had to push through it. He didn't want to be punished because Billiam gets creative. Rann was gripping it for dear life when he heard the familiar wrap of Billiam's feet. Straightening his body up, he turned to face the pink-haired man, "Rann." He said suddenly, noticing how he wasn't looking corrupted right now, "Are you in pain?" Billiam asked, holding the other's chin. Rann pulled away, "I'm not." He stated. Going to feed the egg.

Billiam walked behind him, making sure he wasn't lying— even though the guy has practically raised Rann and knows when he's lying, and he was right now.—after he fed the egg Billiam was still walking after him. So Rann did the most logical thing, and grabbed a guitar he had rented(with the money Billiam gave him to get groceries). He walked to a balcony, getting a guitar pick from his vest pocket he started strumming. Billiam had he foot against the wall of the way back in, Rann sat on the balcony just playing. The older male was surprised he could play.

  Rann hummed lyrics to a song as he played, Billiam's head was resting against the wall now. He was humming as well.

  Billiam opened his eyes and looked at Rann when he saw the younger one wiping away a small strand of blood from his mouth. Rann just continued playing, XD had come to join Billiam in watching Rann play. XD actually knew the lyrics to the song, since he knows that Karl introduced Rann to the song the last time he came to this time, because it's the modern day song "Ghost Town". So the god sang the lyrics, spooking Rann. But the boy continued playing.
