In The Night - Fallacy x Encre

Chapter 13

I arrive at the castle I was talking about previous that day. I clear it to make sure the Mortals arrive to a safe place.  I am bleeding heavily due to the attacks rogues threw at me.  I can hear movement in the lower floor. I weakly pick myself up off the floor before hearing childish laughter.  I smile then put myself back on the floor since I am in pain. "We should check the rooms to make sure that thing didn't trick us."  I hear.  'Didn't... Funny word.'  I think.  

After a few hours the door to the room I am in opens.  I am on the floor just resting currently.  "What is that thing?"  I hear.  I lift my head off of the floor to see them at the doorway staring at me terrified.  I relax before asking "You all made it, alright?"  They nod and I let out a sigh of relief.  "I am glad to hear that, you all arrived safely." I say before setting my head back down on the stone floor.  "Are you alright?"  I hear.  "Could always be better."  I answer calmly.  I feel a hand on my head and then I hear "Encre... You are wounded... Let me help."  I open my eyes to see the bright light I continuously see in my dreams.  "Great this is just another dream, please tell me I am not still chained up or in that god forsaken cell."  I ask the light.  "No, Encre I am here in reality."  I hear.  I nod shifting slightly to show it my wounds.  I pass out because of the light.

I wake up to darkness, and I look up to see the moon and the stars.  "What do you mean there is a beast here?"  I hear suddenly.  My mind is far too fuzzy to concentrate as I sit up, my body sore. I then force myself up and I fly up to the open roof and sit on the edge.  I am looking out at the landscape calmly. The night sky is calm and is peaceful the stars twinkling idly.  The moon almost full, but a pink colour.  "Mating season..."  I mutter.  I feel tears in my eyes at that as my wings wrap around me.  Tears start to fall from my eyes.  "It is a vampire from the looks of it..."  I hear.  My wings open then fold behind my back as some more tears slip from my eyes.  I reach towards the moon then close my hand and eyes.  I pull my arm back to me.  "Why should I mourn... He threw me into a cell..."  I mutter sadly as I wrap my wings around me again trying to comfort myself.  I start to sob quietly, feeling sorrow, and remembering the sorrow I had in that dream. I want to scream so I scream into my mind so the rogues cannot pin point me.  I feel better as my wings go back into my back.  I wipe away my tears. "Fallacy? What are you doing?"  I hear.  I feel arms go around me as soon as I hear Fallacy.  I fight against the hold and get pulled backwards.  Both my arms held behind me and an arm around my waist.  I fight against the person, who I am thinking is Fallacy.  I feel my weak ribs starting to hurt and I slowly stop fighting.  I stop and the grip loosens before I jerk away aggressively.  I am over to the side before seeing Fallacy there.  "Encre... Listen to me, before you attack me."  He says cautiously.  Tears return to my eyes at that request. I shake my head no then fly off, feeling so hurt by those words.  I go deep within the forest and scream in sorrow and sob hard due to them.  His eyes were wide with fear when he said them and he was standing defensively as well.  I continue to scream in sorrow and agony.  I no longer care, wanting to die.  I just lay there waiting for rogues to find me.  I soon become surrounded and I do not care.  I just lay there giving up on everything, I am not injured physically and I am not sick either.  "Why will he not get ready to fight us?"  I hear.  I sit up and rest against a tree.  "Can he not sense us?"  I hear.  "He has given up... Remember mating season starts within the next few days and his mate... Threw him into isolation... He is sexually frustrated, and probably mourning."  I hear. I hear that and get reminded of what just happened a few moments prior to this. I get angry and lash out at the trees while there are tears streaming down my face. 

I am completely surrounded by now and I just stop moving falling to my knees in self pity.  Suddenly they all attack at once and I decided that I need to fly up.  I sit in a tree watching them rip themselves apart, I am not laughing or anything, just staring. I hear laughter and I start to fly away.  

Unknown P.O.V...

I watch as Encre falls to his knees and stops moving, I want to call out to him but I know I would put him in greater danger if I do.  The rogues all start to attack him and he flies up at the last second.  He lands in a tree, and there is laughing, the laugh of a maniac, but it is not coming from Encre as his face is still, blank and emotionless.  I become confused, by this.  Suddenly Encre flies off and I follow him.

Time skip...

Encre's P.O.V...

I am debating whether or not I should go and listen to Fallacy.  Soon I find myself in familiar territory.  I see Suave flying around and I take cover.  I watch as he is carefully looking around, and from the looks of it he senses my presence.  I get ready to take off when I get tackled.  I hit branches and I get ready to fight when I see it is a child.  They are laughing and giggling. I relax completely and fly with them in the air.  "You should not tackle strangers kid."  I state coldly.  My smile that used to shine brightly on my face completely gone.  The kid apparently takes notice of this and asks "Are you alright Lord Encre?"  My soul sinks and cracks again, hearing my old title. "I will escort you back up to the village."  I state grabbing them.  They retract their wings and I carefully slip past Suave and other servants. I land on the walk ways and carry the kid to the middle of the village.  Many vampires are staring at my scars, let alone me, though many of my scars are slowly clearing up due to my increased intake of blood.  I become surrounded by children and I am put on edge at this.  The one I was carrying climbs out of my arms.  "LORD ENCRE IS BACK!!!" A few of the kids shout.  Tears start to form in my eyes hearing that.  The adults are looking at me with wide eyes as tears are slipping from my eyes. "Encre..."  I hear from behind me.  I know it is Fallacy.  The tears start to stop as the children run off.  "That child was meant to lure me here... Was it not Fallacy?"  I say emotionlessly.  I turn to see him looking at me worriedly.  He reaches a hand towards me and I smack it away.  "Touch me, and you shall regret it." I threaten.  Fallacy nods slowly.  "Encre... Please listen to me." He says.  "Why should I?  Give me five solid reasons why I should your highness."  I say with venom.  "Encre..."  Fallacy says trailing off. "Here are five solid reasons why I should not listen to you.  First time I ate dinner with you, I ended up being raped.  Two you put me through isolation. Three you mentally tortured me through the whole time I was with you.  Four the only reason why you have been trying the past month is because mating season is in a few days roughly. Five, the look you had in your eyes earlier... Do not try to find me again, leave me to suffer alone, Fallacy... I do not even want to smell your scent near me again."   I state coldly, no emotions or shift in voice as I look at him.  I then spread my wings and take flight the tears streaming down Fallacy's face scarring the back of my mind.
