Dieome began nodding off to sleep, her head bobbing and her eyes blood shot.

She was just about to close her eyes when there was a rapid knock on her chamber door.

Her heavy eyes slowly moved to the door and she softly spoke, allowing the guest to open the door.

"Dieome, I have returned," A quick bow and the removal of a tattered hood left Duff standing in the middle of Dieome's room.

Dieome smiled tiredly, her eyes bearily staying open. Afterall, it was five in the morning, and she hadn't slept for two days straight.

"i assume that it was a success, Duff? Or did you by some chance fail," Dieome's voice became harsh. Duff slowly took a step back seeing Dieome's mood.

"Well.. It successfully told them we were holding Niome Marriadi captive," Duff paused and began fiddleing with him thumbs, " But, I haven't been able to get ahold of Nio..."

Dieome beared her fangs and hissed in anger. She pulled out her dagger that she kept on her theigh and threw it in Duff's direction.

A thunk and a small splat against the floor was the only sound. It seemed to last for hours.

Duff slowly looked down at his stomach to find the dagger hilt only visible, and a pool of blood forming at his feet.

He gasped for air clutching his stomach. He slowly looked up twords Dieome. She was now standing inches from his furred face.

"Ive lost my faith in you, Duff." she whispered in his ear.

Duff slowly collapsed to the floor, gasping for air. The blood pool was growing every second, covering Duff in the salty, sticky, red substance.

"Any last words?"

He slowly shook his head, making pain shoot through his whole body.

"very well. I shall end your service to me."

Dieome pulled out another hidden dagger and threw it at Duff's neck. Another sickening thunk filled the room along with the sound of Duff's final breath.

"what a disappointment."
