BLAZE!

Lucky Number 8?

Jason wakes up groggy with his clothing all tattered. He looks around and sees Kuron looking pissed off. Kuron notices Jason's movement and sighs.
 K: You're finally awake. Well we did not die but I'm not sure we're in the clear just yet. We have been moving for a bit so I don't think we are going to dinner for the orcs...but it seems like we are going for a long ride.
Kuron sits crisscross applesauce with his arms crossed waiting for his liniment demise.
J: Uhh where are we now? *looks around* another cage...come on. At least no shackles this time, am I right? Huh, huh?
Jason says unconvinced but trying his best to be optimistic. The road is bumpy with there being slight wobbling to their new cage. Jason is unable to see anything through the drapes of their cage. He reaches out to try and move something out of the way.
J: Let me see if I can...Uh oh...
Before Jason can even try anything their cage suddenly comes to a halt. CRASH! Their cage is flipped over on its side abruptly breaking in the process. The two are upside down before the drapes are removed from their cage revealing the two hostages.
?: *sigh* You're kidding right? Why would you ever pay for these things? We don't buy humans what is wrong with you Blitz? Huh! Answer me!
A feminine looking creature no taller than 5'10 scolds "Blitz". The scolder seems to be wearing a hood made out of some weird metallic material resembling feathers sprouting from there back. Whenever she moves her arms her hood moves out of the way as if it's a part of her. Their deep black color sticks out to Jason, and to her right stands that same armored person from the stands. Blitz removes her ridiculous helm revealing a young girl that can't be older than Jason's little sister. The girl has pigtails for a hairstyle and is no taller than Jason.
Bz: Oh come on mom! They defeated a centaur with barely anything!
?: Does that mean we should go and buy every orc that can slaughter some useless critters! No! Come on Blitz, you're almost 250 years old! You're too old for buying your little play things! Plus these humans are worthless! They don't give off magic at all!
The 'mom' declares ridiculing her apparent old ass child, she shuns from the boys in embarrassment.
Bz: But the smaller one is special! He used fire! Or so it seemed. You know fire is a Valkyrie exclusive!
?: WHAT! That's simple- stop lying to me and take those back to where you got them! I don't want you to keep these things any longer. Are you trying to make us Valkyries look bad!? Get them out of here End of discussion!
Plat! Both the females are taken back when dirt is splattered on the 'mom'. They both slowly look towards the humans. Jason stands with his arm out flowing through with his 'attack' onto the so called Valkyries.
J: Uhhh...names Jason. Stop giving your kid such a hard time...please? You are much taller than I thought...*gulp*...hehe.
Jason states realizing he might have made a mistake and looks at Kuron for support who just has his face buried in his hands peeking out to see if Jason's still alive.
?: *in a annoyed tone* So Jason! I am The Queen of the Valkyries! And you are a tiny, useless, human. With no respect at all! You should be kneeling at the idea of meeting me! But instead you threw an attack at not only me! But one of MY! Valkyries!
The Queen declares as she begins to heat up the dirt beneath her. Boom! with the flick of her hand the entire cage the duo was in gets flipped over into a nearby tree. The Queen walks up to Jason getting right up in his face by bending down.
TQ: Maybe You can produce a flame but Why wont you bow?
The Queen asks a confused Jason, who indicates to him to look behind him. Kuron is on one knee with his head low paying absolute respect to her.
J: Some say I'm stubborn. Others say I'm just dense. *smiles* It's a pleasure to meet you, your highness, but I'm sorry to say that we are technically Blitzes property no?
Jason indicates to Blitz who shuns covering her face from her mother.
TQ: You're far from home aren't you? *sigh* ok okay this is the last time Blitz. You're too old for these antics but you did pay for them so you take care of these creatures. Although you are lying out of your teeth when you say he did fire. This thing...yeah right! I would be damned if he can even start a fire the human way!
The Queen begins to walk up the dirt path leaving them behind.
Bz: Oh you *sigh* come on you two...let me take you to your new homes.
Blitz calls out following The Queen. Jason looks at Kuron who is dusting himself off.
K: sheesh man, learn to read the room...can't you tell that she is a strong presence?
Kuron declares walking behind Blitz. Jason scoffs realizing he really is hated everywhere he goes but follows the party nevertheless. There is a clearing up ahead where Kuron stands in awe. Jason catches up to the opening where he is at a loss for words. In front of them was a giant castle with the most intricate design. The peak of the castle is just shy of touching the clouds. The castle gives off a medieval feel, with an impenetrable look. The place is gated with the gate door made to look like rose vines connected to a hedge enclosing the whole area. Jason looks at Kuron who is still just admiring the place.
Bz: Come on! You guys are making me look bad...geez!
Blitz yells out from the gate waving them down. The two follow and enter the perimeter of this place. The castle only gets bigger the closer you get, with the actual door being 10 feet in height. The Queen enters her castle and we hear her calling for something. The Queen sticks her head in and shouts a bit more.
Bz: Ok you guys better not do anything crazy. Especially you Jason! Please, please, please! At least bow for this part...please,please, please do not mess this up for me. Just be respectful.
Blitz states anxiously to Jason specifically as she fidgets with her hair. Foosh! She blitzes to The Queen's side in the blink of an eye. We see The Queen walk back to our heroes with a sort of pride while still maintaining her god complex.
QT: Ok mortals. I will present to you my pride and joy. These are the Valkyries!One by one we slowly but surely see 7 different Valkyries walk out and stand next to The Queen. Every type of girl: from a bubbly girl to a tomboy, from appearing reserved to appearing friendly, from tiny to towering over the queen herself. Each of them appear to have their own style with them lining up in descending heights. Jason bows in respect while Kuron kneels to the Valks. Jason feels eyes burrow at the back of his head and he quickly looks up at the Valkyries.
QT: Oh for them you bow! You really just want to piss me off huh?
The Queen states angrily while flaunting her arms in distress.
J: Yes to the seven of them. I respect them as they have not called me names or threatened me. The seven of them do appear to be worth your pride and joy, your highness. I am truly honored to be in their presence...and stuff.
Jason states while beginning to slowly lower his head down, hiding his giant smirk.
 Bz: J-Jasonnnnn...please...Blitz mutters to Jason with shame and embarrassment, covering her face in the process.
QT: Seven?? There should be one more? Oh that's right. Ella honey come on out! You're a Valkyrie for now, remember! Well in the process...COME ON OUT! The Queen yells back at the castle. A human girl walks out of the giant castle door looking a bit scared and unsure of herself. Jason looks up to see this supposed 8th Valkyrie...The 8th and final Valkyrie catches Jason's attention, stunning him once he landed his gaze onto her. She walks slowly up and joins the line of valks with her eyes suddenly widened once she sees Jason and Kuron. The 8th and final Valkyrie is a rather pale girl, who is just as tall as Jason. She has dark brunette hair that aggressively curls that somehow emphasizes her deep blue eyes. She is in some light armor with a lavish shoulder piece to top. She wears some tattered bell bottom jeans that cuff at the ankle leading into her dirty vans. Jason's swears his heart skipped a beat upon her entering the area. Kuron tilts his head in confusion once spotting her.
K:Wha-...your human!?
TQ: She is part Valkyrie...so she is to be respected as such. Not all you humans are useless but this one is special I just know it.
The Queen declares confidently as Ella shrugs her off. Jason can tell something is off by the way The Queen talks about her Valkyries.
J: Whoa...so what are you guys supposed to be exactly? Like the avengers?
Jason realizes he thought out loud and covers his mouth quickly.
TQ: Well Jason. We rule this realm. I am The Queen of this place but sadly you are now stuck with us...due to some irresponsible Valkyries choices.
The Queen walks over to Jason until she towers over him attempting to scare him.
K: Works for me. So do we get our own rooms in that really cool castle or do we sleep outside since we aren't Valkyries?
QT: You guys really need to learn to respect us royalty. Like it's just sad at this point. Alrighty girls you may go back to whatever you were going. Atatata! Blitz! Where are you going? Those two are your responsibility so figure out what you're going to do to make them less of disappointments! Foosh! The Queen speeds over to blitz, forcefully grabbing her by the arm and tosses her back at the boys, knocking them all down.
TQ: Now decide what you are going to do with those. You have until the end of the week to make them worth our time. I thought you were out of this stage blitz...
The Queen then shuts her castle door with a loud slam. Blitz eyes begin to tear up as she lays there with her two losers. Jason gets up first and helps the others up to their feet. Blitz now has tears running down her face.
Bz: You know...I really tried to make her proud...but no! The stupid human has to go and mess it all up. Jason, I'm sure you're a great person but...UGH!
Bitz balls her fists and swings at the air in pure frustration.
J: Woah, woah, woah! Breath! just breathe. I-I'm sorry okay...I just did not understand who that was but I just had to committee at that point. It's not your fault. I get the feeling like all you do is fuck everything up... But come on! You saw us both out there, we-no I will prove to her that it's not a fluke. Right Kuron?
Jason looks at Kuron for help comforting blitz but he just looks shocked and confused.
K: What? Your fucking crazy man. *sigh* yeah you fucked up big time...lets just go inside and sleep on the floor or something. I'm too tired to think right now.
Blitz wipes her tears away from her face and fixes herself a bit with Jason's aid.
Bz: Yeah...you're right. Let's go inside... I can't possibly mess that up, right?
Blitz flutters towards the door with Kuron following close behind. Jason stands defeated, as guilt fills his stomach. Slam! The door shakes Jason's core.
J: Your useless at home, and your a fuck up in another. *long sigh* There you go fucking everything up again...You had a chance to get a fresh start and messed it all up. I will fix this...*deep inhale*. Just have to...relight that flame...Jason breathes out slowly but rather calm down he is filled with so much of his self hatred that his stomach begins to hurt. He attempts to ignite the fire within him but to no avail. "UGH!" Jason snaps in anger. A sudden chills run down his spine with the hairs on the back of his neck jumping straight up. He gets the feeling that he is being watched yet again so he looks around but...nothing. Creeped out, Jason rushes towards the door of his new home.
