Hues of Remembrace

Arcoiries watched one of the girls pull the chair for him and he sat down. "I hope you found my home to your likening," he smiled. Before he could answer he saw Kuroh sit on her knees next to his chair. "Yes," said Arcoiries and he watched her not even react to his voice. "Splendid. I'm so happy. So tell me about your family. Your daddy never seems to want to talk about you all that much. Rude really," he said a little hurt as he swirled his wine glass. "Well it's pretty much normal. My mom is fin-,"

He was stopped by Blender's suddenly bored look. "Listen my boy. I want to know about your family as if I was in it myself. I know your mommy and daddy have been fighting. Also your brother is in the army. How is any of that 'normal'," he sighed and Arcoiries was taken back. "Tell me about Narañja... has he found a girl," he asked. "No. he says studying is more important right now. With his looks, he can afford to wait," said Arcoiries. "I see, and your Parent debacles," asked Blender leaning forward more eagerly. Arcoiries took a sip of his water. "What's up with this guy. My parents aren't fighting. They're just hurt by what happened to Ecset. Why does he know all this," he thought before smiling and saying, "I guess mom gets lonely with dad not being there and I'm sure he feels the same. Like we'd all live together if it wasn't for my dad being in the position he's in." Blender smiled as if he was pleased with that answer. "I've wondered about her. I can still recollect when Morado and I met dear Rosa. I told him he was a fool if he ever let this women go. Yet if he did I would gladly take her," he smiled; almost chuckling to himself, before taking a bite of the steak in front of him. Arcoiries bit back his words. "Did he just offer to take my mom!?" He thought shocked!

Arcoiries took a few bites of his meal and looked back up to see Blender staring lovingly at him. "So my boy. Are you interested in anyone. Do I hear wedding bells," he smirked. "No," said Arcoiries before taking a drink. "Oh come now, there has to be someone. A little birdie told me daddy's friend's daughter was instead in you. Word gets around in our lil friend group," smiled Blender. "I don't have any feeling for her. She's just a friend," said Arcoiries quickly. "I see," said Blender.

The dinner resumed. Chatter here and there. Perfectly normal till a guard walking in. "Master Blender. You have a phone call," he called. "Do you mind, I have a guest. Who is it," said Blender, his eyes narrowing. "Primary Azul. Seems a soldier has gone awol. He wants to hear if you've seen him. Seems his an important soldier with ties to the Lord," the guard said quickly. "Interesting. I'll be back Arcoiries," He smiled making his exit, but he stopped and turned "Arcoiries please don't worry I'll be back soon. You are free to look around," he smiled. 

Arcoiries nodded and when the door shut he stood up. The Girls began to clean up and he noticed Kuroh not moving. She was completely still. Like a doll waiting for her little girl to come bring her to life. Her eyes were fixed on the floor just in front of her. Arcoiries quietly and slowly walked in front of her. "She looks so lifeless, is she really the same girl. When I first met her she told me to fuck off. Now she would probably apologize. Why is this so hard? I can feel my heart pounding right out of my chest," thought Arcoiries as he just stared at her. She slowly looked up at him and he froze. He wanted to hold her, tell her he was going to save her, and make everything thing ok. Yet he didn't have the courage to move. She looked up and they locked eyes. They held the gaze in silence for just a moment.

"Kuroh I'm so sorry for all this and I'll explain later, but we have to go!" Arcoiries said urgently. "Who's Kuroh?" She asked with a blank look on her face, tilting her head to the side. "Kuroh stop it! We have to get out of here," Arcoiries said harshly but trying to keep his voice down. The anger began to build up in his body. All She did was blink and stare. "Let's go," he snapped as he grabbed her arm. "You're taking me from Master?" She whispered. "Yes come o-" yet before he could finish she began to scream. "MASTER!!!!!!!!! HELP ME!!!!" She screamed louder and louder, even when Arcoiries covered her mouth. Her screams was still ear piecing.
