The council room was in a secret building in the city of Manhattan. It was a place to judge the unlawful creatures without human attention, so it was a fake company with steel reinforcements and guards. When Sloan first took me here to watch a Witch get judged for slaughtering 11 men out of anger, just because they didn't fall for her flirty tone and tricks. It was horrifying but also interesting to watch. Now I stood in the middle of the judging room. The councils sat in a circle around me, about three feet high from the ground. There was only one exit that was behind me and I felt eyes looking at every side or me. Apparently the main councilman was retired because now Jen replaced him. She, like everyone, was wearing a white robe with red accents around the neckline and sleeves. If she saw my surprise then she didn't acknowledge it instead she shushed the council and people who came to watch the debate. I could see that this was interesting somehow because the stands was filled. Why would they all want to see how this ends. They'll grant me permission to kill Asyrd and that'll be that.
"This meeting is in session", Jen said sharply, the room automatically fell silent and all eyes went to her.
"We're here to discuss the murder of Sloan Grey", she began clearing her throat, "according to the doctors his neck was broken, and there was no blood loss or signs of magical residue. And you've come to say that he was attacked by a vampire. Is that correct? ", she asked pushing herself glasses higher on her nose.
"Yes your Honor. His name is Asyrd Silver. Sloan told me his name before he died", I retorted. She nodded and looked closely at me,
"He claimed you as his son and apprentice in training. So you know that now you'll be graduated as soon as the witch can come to you. Now, tell me exactly how he died", she sighed. I gulped and gritted my teeth.
"I snapped his neck only because he asked. He didn't want to become an immortal blood-sucker", I heard several hisses from the crowd. Jen gave me a hard look,
"Don't make me revoke your Rahul training Azoro, you do not call another species by a name that is forbidden. The treaty among all of us is still intacted and in progress. Trust and peace is among us, don't ruin that", she spoke almost harshly. I grimaced and nodded. I couldn't help myself, I'm loathe the vampire species, even before Asyrd. Their immortality, beauty, and predator like selves are different from the regular supernatural community.
"You've come here to kill Asyrd Silver, ....do you not?",
"I did. Allow me to hunt him and I'll finally be at ease", I spoke softly. She sighed and the room was thick with silence.
"Azoro, this path you chosen isn't healthy for you. You think killing Asyrd is really good for you. Well it isn't", she said, Her voice getting angry and high, "you're not on the case Arozo", she yelled. I held my tongue before I say something I'll regret and end up in a jail cell. She hadn't noticed she stood up as she yelled and sat back down.
"Now let's discuss the reason you're here. The council see it's fit that you're to get over this petty hatred for vampires. So we enrolled you to help protect their princess at their school as a guard", by this point my body tensed and I clenched my fist anger surging through my body. I bit down on my lip as she continued.
"You won't be the only Rahul there. Ten others are there to watch you if things get out of control. Please, Arozo see this as a lesson of controlling your anger and fear", she spoke softly,
"Fear. I do not fear vampires. I can kill twenty of them at one time. Fear isn't what I feel from them, it disgust", I yelled. I felt my face flush with anger. Jen kept her face calm and collected during this.
"You'll do as you're told and spend a year within the academy or a year within a prison cell. Meeting over, Azoro get from my sights", she said. Everyone began filling out. But I stood there stiff till most of everyone was out and turned to leave. There leaning against the door was a girl.
She looked my age with dark honey brown skin, coal black eyes, and long black hair. She reminded me of the human star Kim Kardashian, only younger and darker. She waited till I was about to pass before grabbing my arm.
"Azoro. I'm India, one of the Rahul who'll help protect the princess", I pried her fingers off my arm then faced her. She was beautiful, that was obvious. Her eyes narrowed, and I realized I may have been staring.
"That's nice but I really have to go and pack my things", and again she pulled me back but more softly this time. I got irritated and yanked my arm back.
"What now", I scowled, she crossed her arms and didn't answer. She gave me a look that said 'really'. I sighed,
"Sorry, can you tell me what's going on", I asked as fake as I could. She smiled and her perfectly white teeth, oddly making me feel happy.
"Your stuff are already packed and waiting for you in our room," she said. I blinked.
"What do you mean our room", I said startled. She laughed at my embarrassment.
"Every two Rahul will be placed together forming a circle around the princess. Each of us has our own cottage. We just happen to have one together. And don't worry, if you keep it in your pants and maybe I might be your friend", she grinned, I smiled back and noticed that it was my first smile for awhile.
"Come with me. The car is waiting and so is the princess", she sighed, I raised an eyebrow.
"Do you like vampires", I asked. She hesitated, and then nodded.
"My boyfriend is a vampire", she said grinning. I swallowed and shook the image from my head.
"He doesn't feed from you, do he?", I asked wryly.
"No, you idiot. I have a brain you know, I wouldn't ever let him do that. It's disgusting", she frowned. I nodded.
"Let me know if he ever hurts you, I'll gladly kill him", I said, and then looked around a empty council room.
"Now let's go before they lock us in", I added.
She led me to a car that'll eventually reach our destination. I stared out the window and watched the city go by and us driving up to the airport. Then I was surprised when we drove off from the main office to a private jet. I must have looked surprised because India smiled,
"One perk of being the guards of a princess who is rich is that you'll get anything you want", she said. The plane door was already open for us and ready to go. I sat down in one of the comfortable leather seats and closed my eyes. I felt air go pass my face and smelled lavender. I figured it was India. Then I heard a seat in front of me give a breath of air. I opened my eyes to find another girl. She had oval brown eyes and shoulder length hair. She looked shy as she smiled at me.
"What's your name", India asked. I frowned, she doesn't know her. The girl looked up at India then glanced at me.
"My name is Tessa, I graduated from my mentor and I'm heading to the school now", she said quietly. I glanced over at India and she shrugged.
"Alright then, I'm Arozo and this is India", I said introducing us. She smiled brightly at me, and I felt attracted to her. She was nice, quiet, and cute. India propped her legs up on the seat which layed over my lap. I gave her a look and she just smiled and burrowed into the seat cushions. I heard the jet's engine start and I buckled up. I was ready to see India fall onto the floor.
Please tell me how I'm doing and don't forget to...
