"So bright..." Groaned the pained she beat. The light seems to be coming from all angles not only hurted her sensitive eyes, but for those who have not been in the room before maybe overwhelming. The she beast would be a prime example of this. "Viral make it stoooop~" she cried, covering her eyes with her hands.
"Hush," Viral hissed through his teeth, standing in a dignified manner with his arms behind his back and focus straight ahead in a soldier like fashion,"just deal with it til this is over..." the annoyed tone in his voice made the shebeast to let out a quiet inward groaned and remain still. Upon arriving at the facility where he landed his Gunman, Enki, the supreme commander Adiane contacted him and strictly order him to bring the shebeast to the Spiral King himself. What he didn't expect was security beasts (which consist of two buff humanoid bear beastman with hand made spears that could do damage, but a great hindrance with their strength) ushering him and the shebeast to their king without a hitch.
"Put that over her" the bear beastman, who large scar going over diagonal on his left eye, gave Viral a shaggy blue blanket that seen better days. Viral raised an eyeborw,"Why? I see no importance of this."
The beast grunts,"Direct orders from our lord. Says he would like to keep the shebeasts' appearance from the public eye." After receiving questionable look he continued, "hey look, I don't make the fucking rules, I just follow them."Viral rolled his eyes the simple but foolish, personally thinking the beastman was pulling his leg, "ah, I see." Takes the scruffy blanket, the touch of it reminds him off cloth hay. He turns to his captive, staring down at her form; the light coming from their board walk Gunman makes it easier for him to see that the shebeast was a couple inches shorter then him by comparison, very thin curvy body from the lack of nutrients, and more then likely could she use a bath.
'Which makes me wonder...' He thought while placing the blanket over her head, 'how long could she had possibly been in that cave? Even as a beastman, tho qhe can last longer then a human, still....go without food til you this thin is somewhat bother some.' He made sure the blanket covered just about half of her form, exposing her kneecaps and down. For whatever reason for this, he doesn't question it for now. Soon enough, he will get his answers.
"Alright, follow me now." The bear beastman grunted, turning and walks the opposite direction that leading further into the facility. Viral, snorted, place his hands on the shebeast shoulders and guides her after the bear security. "The ground..." she stated, eyeing the floor like it was her nemeses, "...its...flithy..." she nest hissed in agitation at the grubby feeling under her feet. The felon beastman held back a smirk at the irony, saying nothing as they make their way towards the All Mighty One.
~~OooOoooOooooOoOooooooooo~~
Finally at their location; a room big enough to simulate a city, the three wondering beastmans stood in a orderly fashion. They stood in front of their lord, who sat at his throne chair like the king he is worshipped to be. Stepping forward the bear beast did, lowering to his knees and bows his head respectfully. "Your majesty, I have brought commander Viral as you have requested." He says with a sense of pride.
The Spiral King, the height of a true royal king with the muscles to match his intimidating appearance. A single but thick white robe hung off his body and drapes over his feet. His stern and icy stare flickers from his subordinate bear beastman to the one in the white moble suit. In his deep yet loud voice, he says "Ah, thank you my child. You shall be rewarded soon. In the meantime, I have to ask you to leave us be...now."
The beastman nods and bows again before leaving the bright room through a sliding door that close behind him.
The silence filled the room soon after to the point it was almost eerie. The unblinking stare his king was doing almost made the vice commander's knees buck under him, facing the bright white floor so he didn't meet his king's gaze.
"Viral...how was the journey?" The spiral king question, crossing his leg over the other one while his 'admiring company' stayed cuddled to their superior side. Viral gulps softly,"it went alright my lord, nothing out the norm. Well...I mean..." he paused, turning his head to the curious beastwoman that was more fascinated by the bright room then the actual situation on hand."...as a matter of fact, your majesty, I do a question of concern. Of all the things you had me do, why-no no no- what's so important-" points to the she beast,"about this one right here? To, I see that she is no different then the average beastman, yet i had to go into a cave which had some sort of weird symbol on it and inside was...her! Please forgive sire,but I am just...at a lost is all." He tone died down once he realized how much he came off as whining then expressing his "concern", hoping his majestic didn't notice....sadly, he did.
The Spiral king let loose a deep sigh with his eyes closed in thought, his mental process showed on his face. Slowly and steadily, he shift on leg over the other as he took in a breathe and spoke to his loyal servant,"Viral...what is the basics of life?"
Viral's head raises up and clocks an eyebrow up,"I...I don't....I don't follow."
"The basics of life,Viral, is an important survival tool wild animals goes by in order to live and pass off their knowledge amongst their offspring. No one lives forever, Viral. Even I have a date where my time will come to either a natural or unexpected end. And once that time does come, whom will take my place to pass on the word of One so great? Hm?" The spiral king leans forward in his chair yet against, resting his elbows on top of his knee caps and staring down wit almost a mistakenly amused look,"What would be better...then to have an offspring with your genetics breathing, living...""Sir, I-I still don't get what you mean..." Viral mutters aloud, the gaze from his superior was almost to much for him to bare. His head turns to the side for the second, the realization hit him harder then Adiane's strikes with her scorpion tail. He shakes his head, hoping what he concluded was false and that he was absurd for thinking such a thing. As his lips quiver for the next words, a slight tap brought his back in remembering the figure beside him,"H-huh? What?"
Curiosity filled his face once his eyes took in the shebeast that's been oddly quiet since the conversation started. Now, her stance was wiggly dances and her cheeks were flush with discomfort. It was almost as if...oh no. "What's the matter with you?"
"I-I...!" She began in a low whisper, holding her hands between her thighs while clutching her entire soul inwardly. Even without saying it, the obvious was the matter.Taking a second to figure out the problem, Viral's face changed to an "oh" realization.
"Shit, now? Just hold it in til this is done...besides, you're no longer my problem anyways." He snarkles, crossing his arms over his chest while giving the handler holding shebeast a cold shoulder,"His majesty will desk with you now.""Excellent idea, Commander." The almost scary delighted tone that shook the coldness from the shark beast and grabs the fox beastman's attention. Viral gulps at the eyes that stares him down so tensely, he fought the urge to drop down on his knees like a dog just to breathe again. He drops his head, however, clutching his fist to his side to keep his hands stable from his lord's sudden change in tune.
"Such a noble soldier and honest to no end...Viral, my loyal subject..." The kind leans forward in chair, propping his elbow on his kneecap while resting his chin in the palm of his hand.
"Your next task personally assign by me is to watch subject J6-97 for me until the time calls for what is planned. Now, I'm sure a task such as this isn't too difficult for you to revise now is it?" The response time and the silence coming from his loyal subject made him push the matter, "or...should I notify Adiane of your failure to complete the previous task? I'm sure she wouldn't be too happy to hear such a thing."Viral eyes grew big, lips trembling and body almost froze in the spot he stood. He glances at the 'package' beside that squirm around for relief and back at his Majesty who just blackmailed in taking care of...of...
".... ..." Viral sighs heavily, "Y...yes...sire."
He replied gloomily. "Shit...what the hell did I get fucked into now?!" He though bitterly, glaring at the burden he was forced to take care of from the corner of his eyes. He grits his teeth, now knowing where to take his angry out on,"if it's not one thing, it's another. But I'll be damn if I have to deal with this shit..."~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~•~~•~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
