World of darkness : book 3 : the red war

Part 4 : duos return

( narrator pov)

Cynthia brought both rain and stella to her castle to discuss a plan to fight the pigmen and either kill or capture their leader brots before he can lead his assault on Cynthias armys.

They made their way to Cynthias throne room , rain and stella left their belongings they had brought with them down and walked up to Cynthia now sitting on her throne .

Cynthia " well , the plan of course is to find brots and kill him problem is we have no idea where he could be . So anyone have any ideas ?" She asked the two ender watchers standing in front of her.

Rain " well i think if we go to the pigmen castle we might be able to find plans and wheres his attack "

Cynthia " well that would be good if we can get there but thats why I brought you here mister dragon tamer , that is what they use to call you right " she said in a slight joking manner .

Stella " i could open a portal and that should get us close but from there we might have to fight our way in " that wouldnt be a problem for them but they all knew trying to do things quickly and quietly would be the preferred result.

Cynthia " we shall move out in a few hours , for now you two may leave your things in the rooms down the hall that way " she pointed to the hall that was on the right side of her throne .

Rain and stella grabbed their things and walked to the rooms , there was two so they would be separated but neither of them cared and just put their items in .

Once they had put in their belongings they walked back out to the hall way and decided to have a little chat as they walked back.

Stella " hey earlier with Cynthia " she was sure there was something else afoot here " what was up with that you two were extremely close ....to close " she mumbled that last part .

Rain " oh it was nothing Cynthia was just being flirty i wasnt going to do anything " stella was feeling jealous once more .

She accepted his love for ciara but him going for this other girl mae her angry since they didnt know her well enough.

Stella "...sure " she started walking back to the throne room annoyed with how rain was acting her feelings for him make her easy to anger in this case .

Rain " look stella i get you still like me and i do like you to ...im not ready for some one like you yet nothing will happen with Cynthia I promise " he caught up to her and held her arm.

Stella " ...no..its just me i cant stop you im sorry " she regretted bringing any bit of this up but the awkwardness was already as thick as the nether brick walls around them .

Rain "...i dont want things to be weird between us....i just miss her...ciara ...i dont know what i feel anymore " steal turned and hugged him saying sorry for brining things up since it clearly made him feel bad .

Stella "..i get it , im sorry " the two heard foot steps and the magic skeleton shatter walked in .

Shatter " Cynthia wants to meet with you . Now " the two followed him and walked back to Cynthia.

As this was happening something was happening back in the overworld.
