The Assassin of two Worlds

Chapter 5

After that human was sent to the dungeon and Ha'lec's arm was back to normal it was clear to me that the human was dangerous. Before I just thought it was an act or a bluff, but what just transgress was an obvious proof that he was a threat. How could a simple human be so dangerous? Did we underestimated them? Are all humans really capable of becoming that dangerous? How did he became so dangerous in the first place? I kept facing back and forth trying to come up with a logical explanation for all of this. I heard the door to my chamber open and Ha'lec walked in. I turn to him as to determine if he was capable to watch over the human. When I determine he was I send him off to the dungeon to watch over that human. Ha'lec didn't like it, even if he didn't say anything I could tell he was displeased. When he left and I was alone I walked to one of the sofa's in my chamber and sat down trying to think as to what I should do with that human. Obviously I was gonna have to keep him on a tight leash, but how do I tame him and control him? I was curious about him. Who was he? Or what was he?

A few minutes past until a guard walked in to warn me.

"Mistress. Your mother has asked me to deliver a message to you. She got word of your new slave and how dangerous he is. She wishes to speak to you about what you plan to do with him. However your meeting would have to wait till tomorrow. Right now she's attending to a few of her duties and cannot turn them away."

"Will that be all?"

"Yes mistress."

"Good. You may leave."

The guard left and I was screw. Crap! What am I gonna tell my mother? At least I have until tomorrow to think about what I'm gonna do but I don't think is gonna be easy. Oh dear Paya what am I gonna do? That human has made more trouble than what his worth. Could today get any worse? As if on cue a guard comes in and tells me a storm is coming. Nothing serious just rain, thunder and lightning. Sure nothing serious. Is as if that human has a beacon to bring in trouble. Sigh at least the one good thing about every day is the sun set. It always relaxes me. I walk to the balcony and watch as the sun starts to set on the horizon. I take a deep breath and let it out as my mind starts to clear.

After the sun goes out and the night sets in, it begins to rain. I step back inside and press a bottom on a wall panel to make the balcony doors close as to keep the rain out. I head for the bathroom inside my bedchambers and start to strip down as I walk. I take off my breast plate and once I set it down on a table inside my room and just as I set it down all the power goes out. You have got to be kidding me. Now what? It was dark and I could barely see anything even when I used my infrared vision I still couldn't see very well.

"You should've heed my warning 'princes' "

After hearing that voice a strong thunder resonated from the outside. That voice, that dark, cold, emotionless and nightmarish voice. It was him. That human. How did he escape?

"GUARDS!"

I yell to the top of my lungs but no one answered my call. The only voices I heard was his as it echo through the darkness of the room.

"Your guards won't be coming to help you 'princes'."

"What? What did you do to them?" I said angry trying to hide my fear.

"Do not worry. I didn't kill them. I just put them to sleep. Didn't really found much interest in killing them."

My heart was raising and I desperately try to keep calm. I head for my armory but I couldn't see very well, besides I couldn't see where he was. He could very well be behind me and kill me before I even notice. Lightning hit outside and the little light that came through the window help me make my way to my armory inside my room.
