A Satisfied Treachery

chapter 2

The light shown through the window softly the figure in the bed moving around slightly, with a moan he lifted himself up from the soft pillows and blankets that covered his body, "ugh.. what time is it?" He asked himself.

Groaning Orion stretched rubbing the back of his neck, getting up off the bed he sluggishly dragged his feet to the bathroom, bending down he grabbed a dirty shirt off the floor, feeling a sharp pain in his arm, he looked down at the bandages it seemed they had bled through, "oh come the hell on- really...?" He muttered to himself in a annoyed tone.
Pulling the bandages off he switched them out.

Going out into the living room he watched the maids clean, chewing the inside of his cheek he put his fingers together, a soft purple glow between them, after a moment a bright and hot spot formed, hearing his name he jumped surprised, the ball of light disappeared.

"Orion! Come over" Malcolm called from his study, waving his hand motioning the boy over,
"Um yes sir?"
Malcolm's brow twitched as he tapped his pen "I have to have a meeting with a man named Matthias..
he wants my help."
He looked up at Orion, his eyes were strange as he watched the younger man. Shifting in his seat he sighed.
"It's just a simple bodyguard thing, not anything interesting, so I want you to take it over"

Orion looked at Malcolm with surprised eyes, "you want me to do it?" He muttered a small smile tugging at his lips as he tried to keep it professional.
"Yes yes I want you to do it, it's not like it's someone with high ranking anyways-" he rolled his eyes "now leave me, I have important work" Malcolm said waving his hand in a dismissive manner. Nodding Orion walked out of the room closing the door behind him, once it was closed he let out a small chuckle "I'm finally doing a mission on my own, he trusts me with it, he trusts me of all people" as he strolls down the hall a bright smile starts to grow on his face, "finally-" he muttered letting out a soft sigh.

Grabbing food from the dining room he went out to the court yard to train, it was warm out as the leaves rustled in the trees. Still chewing his food he took a deep breath as he put his hands together a small search of energy tingling between his fingers, the markings on his arms starting to glow a soft shade of gold.
Pulling them apart a hot glow started to form, a grin on his face as he started to shape it, chewing his cheek. Orion pulled it making it into a thin rope like thing, smirking he suddenly whipping it forward in the air, chuckling he started to mess around with it, the whip cracking loudly before accidentally hitting his leg making it buckle, the strange wip disappearing as he held his leg. "Ow! Shit, That's the last time I'm doing that" he mumbled noticing that a red mark was already forming.

Shaking his head he walked out into the middle of the grass, putting his hands together Orion took a deep breath, closing his eyes he felt as if a weight was being lifted off of him keeping his eyes closed he continued to take deep and slow breaths, the wind felling strangely colder, Peking open one of his eyes he let out gasp seeing that he was at least a foot off the ground before falling. "Ah-! Fuck damnit!" He yelled out landing on his ass.

Groaning he layed down looking at the blue sky, the clouds above looked soft. He closed his eyes feeling his body melt into the grass beneath him, the sounds of the outside enveloping him, realizing he needed to continue after awhile he finally pushed himself up right and off the ground. Rolling his shoulder he took a deep breath, the smell of the grass making his itch his nose. Putting his hands together and closing his eyes once again he started to focus on his breathing, that same strange cold feeling prickled between his fingers.

Opening his eyes he grinned from ear to ear, starting to lose focus on what he was doing, Orion shook his head he continued to breath.
"Starstorm, Frostbite needs you down town, a Battle is going on and he needs back up-"
A maid yelled to him, watching the boy fall to the ground before jumping back up, Orion nodded as he ran past her, "thank you I'll head over now!"
Running quickly he jumped into the car driving as fast as he could.

Doing a hard stop he looked up seeing two figures fighting on the roof, "damnit damnit damnit" he said to himself getting out running to the building, the people evacuated fairly far away.
Looking out the window suddenly a giant ice pillar crashed to the ground.

Opening the hatch to the roof, the wind was wiping, pulling himself up on the roof he looked up just to jump out of the way as a red glowing spear was just about to hit him, looking back it had already started to disappear. Quickly looking back he saw the man who threw it, he had a black jacket strange pair of red horns and a mask that coved his face, ashy black hair sprouting out of the top of the mask like smoke of a fire. Abruptly the masked man laugh loudly as he jumped out of the way of Malcolm's attack.

Holding out his hands a strange glow came from the markings on his arms as he created small asteroids throwing them at the Red Devil.
Surprise the man jumped out of the way looking at Orion, "well well now who is this" before Orion could say anything he was pushed back by Frost bite, hitting the ground his head shot back up as the man created a ice slip along the ground,
spikes shooting up from it, Red Devil jumping out of the way chuckling, "it's funny you think you'll be able to beat me you dull thing of a hero" he spat at Malcolm with a playful smile. Starting to sprint to the edge he laugh loudly
"YOU WONT GET AWAY DEVIL!" Malcolm yelled running after him.

Getting up Orion took a deep breath holding out his hands a glow emitting from them, his breath quickened as the rocks on the roof started to float around him looking the divil in the eyes the man ran past him with a wink jumping off the roof. Turning to grab him Orion's breath was hot in the air as he fell his fingers barely brushing against the man's jacket.
Thoughts running through his head as he fell, holding his hands together he gasped as he felt his fall slowing looking back at the man he pushed himself forward grabbing onto the masked man.

Holding his waist he bite his cheek as the stopped only inchs from the ground, letting out a sigh of relief the suddenly hit the ground with a small oof. Panting he looked at the red devil, the man with black hair looking at Orion with a huff. The sound of Malcolms yells echoes in the alleyway. Getting up and stretching the man started to walk away. Orion pushed himself up putting his hand out to grab him, "stop villain! I.. I'm st-starstorm and your um... Under arrest?" He mumbled not confident in what he said.
"Hmm? And who are you to stop me? A hero?... No... Your a sidekick aren't you haha how cute" he laughed putting a hand on his hip looking back at the boyish man Infront of him
"N..no I am a hero, and I'll stop you-"
The other man smirked
"oh but I'm the devil in red, the one that no one has ever been able to catch, not even that ice prick Frostbite"

Orion sighed staring down the other man, his soft green eyes, it almost felt unnatural with how he looked-
"I will stop you-"
The other man just smiled as he took a step back his arms held out to his sides "I'd love to see you try star boy" he winked before running off with a chuckle, "ack- damnit" he said to himself going into a sprint towards the street after him,
looking left to right he couldn't spot the man. Sighing he pinched his brow his body leaning up against the cool wall,
chewing the inside of his cheek he chuckled, "star boy? Heh.. how strange" he smiled closing his eyes.
