A Beginning To An End

A Dance With Death

13 kingdoms, 13 kings, one Goddess

Jupiter was the Goddess of all 13 kingdoms and kings and what she said goes. You didn't dare speak against a Goddess nor did you ever think of doing anything bad to one.

Though, Riki was a slum rat and slum rats knew one thing. You don't bow down to any fucker at all. You stand up and you fight no matter what. That was the way of the slums and that was the way Riki grew up.

Living in the slums and being born in the slums was a death wish to many. All 13 kingdoms refuse to take ownership over the slums or even recognize it as anything.  The rich lived in the kingdoms and the poor....the poor lived in the slums going day by day trying to find food or shelter.

This was what the Goddess wanted after all. She wanted the rich to rule and the very elites to be at the very top. While the very poor stayed on the bottom. It was a punch in the face to everyone in the slums to watch the rich go around shopping and wasting money and it was a bigger punch to see the highest of all... the blondies who were kings! get to sit on their thrones and act like everything was fine in the world

Though, when people are pushed down more and more and treated less then dirt. That's when everything goes down to hell and that's when the revolution started.

Riki joined right away and god.... if he only knew that his attempt to change things.... would make things far far far worse

................

" we've gotta kill him"

That was the first thing Riki heard when he walked into the bar. The inside was dimly lit with dark pink lights moving around to the music. People were dancing around and the smell of smoke and sex hit Riki hard in the nose but he was used to it. In the slums you smell that a lot with a nasty scent of piss. If you were lucky it was just piss and not shit

Rikis dark brown eyes fall onto a table near the door. Guy and a few other of the members of the " Scarlet Fox " were sitting at the table. Riki had joined the " Scarlet Foxes" about 3 years ago when the revolution first started and his been with them ever since. Always, running about to get done with their work. The leader of the revolution was no other then Guy.

"  the new blondie was just crowned king yesterday, he is to hold a party later on tonight. If we are able to get in and kill him will be able to show those damn rich pigs that the 'Scarlet Fox' aren't meant to be messed with. " Guy pulled out a paper and threw it on the table. The paper had the head lines

" Iason Mink, the newest king of the kingdom of Roses"

" The Rosen people are happy to gain a man like Iason. Though, for us this is hell! He wants to grow his kingdom! Does anyone know what that means?"

No one raised their hands, everyone was to scared to say those words but Riki knew what it was

" That means he will cut through the slums and take it for himself. He won't take us slum rats into his kingdom.... he'll kill us all" Those words made everyone at the table look away from the paper. The man Iason Mink on it alone made them sick

" mass murder " Guy finished and sighs. His long brown hair falling a little over his shoulder " to them its probably killing a few rats but for us... it's our death sentence "

" then we have to do something, if killing him is the only way then will be able to all live in some sort of peace. No other blondie cares enough and is to far away from our borders to even want to kill us or take our slums. " Luke said " if we do this tonight then I can sleep a whole of a lot better!"

" exactly, but this is dangerous and we might be killed before we even get close to the new king. It always worth trying though right? The hard thing is.... I have to send one person in to kill him. If there is more then one of us they will see right through but...... I just don't know who to pick"
