Aora's POV
After Pagan looked at me, I immediately turned my gaze. But the instinct took over me and I stared at him for too long. I mean, it was the king of Kyrat, how couldn't I? After I realized what I have done by doing so, I bent my head down from respect. I didn't really respect him, but I had to be like that since it was my mission to earn his trust."Did you know... That you are... on King's territory? I don't want to be rude, but I think you are an uninvited guest. Aren't you?" His voice tone amused me, but at the same time he sounded like he was going to stab me, with his famous pen, any moment.
"I can't agree on that Sir."I tried to be confident for him too see the stronger side of me that got lost since my childhood.
"...Listen here lady. Are you trying to be funny, or are you humiliating me right now? Because, I think we can deal this in a better way if you don't talk. If you can't agree with me, than why the hell.. are you here?" I didn't understand how his speach could be so straightforward and voice so calming in a situation like that.
"De Pleur sent me. Secretly. He wanted only you to know about me and my mission to free Kyrat from terrorists."
"Huh *chuckle*, and where is he right now?" He asked sarcasticly because we both knew the answer
"He is dead.." As soon as I finished my sentence he repeated the same while in a circular movement(around me)
"How old are you?" his question confused me, but I answered it honestly:
"28 Sir, but why is that important?""None of your business. Follow me" His chuckles were repeating every 10 seconds
I followed him to the palace where he showed me some strange-looking room. In the room, beside the bed and other furniture, there was a red painted wooden box. I was about to open it, when Pagan warned me about it:
"*hiss* I wouldn't do that if I were you. But, I am not you so be free to decide it for yourself." As he said that, I pulled my hands back and stood up while turning around to face him."With all the respect, for what reason am I in this room? I thought I was going to fulfill my mission."
"Huhuh(chuckle) what mission? The one De Pleur gave you..? Did you know that before he died, he told me.. Yeah, me... That he was done with his active season, but there was only one more mission. And that mission wasn't you, it was to lure Ajay Ghale for me. Yeah, can you believe that? Can you believe that you lied to king of Kyrat?... Hahah, just like I thought."
"Yes, I lied, but I am here for a reason."
"No way, you are here for a reason!?*he said sarcasticly* We are all here for a reason. The question is, what is yours?"
"___" I stayed quiet.. And that had its own consequences.
"I am sorry, but we are going to continue this small chat downstairs. Find out what she knows." The guards grabbed me by my arms and forcefully took me to the basement where the torturings were being held before.
They pushed me on a chair and tied my wrists and legs on it.
Once that everything was ready, they called Pagan. He sat on a chair(criss cross style) and repeated his question:
"Why_Are_You_Here? Are you afraid to talk? Hahah, please don't think I will spare you. It is true that I'm a good guy, but people like you are my enemies. And trust me, you don't want to be my enemy. Soon you'll see what it means to confront me."He took the electroshocker from guard's hands and shocked me twice for a long period of time and a small pause between the two strikes.
"Fine, if you want something else, what will it be? Pincers? Baseball bat, a knife, water? or...my pen? Start talking." He left the room when his phone rang.
As soon as he got out, the guards started torturing me. It was terrible for my first day at the palace. My phone was gone so I had to survive on my own.
5 minutes later, after I almost died from drowning, Pagan came back and ordered the guards to untie me.
"Untie her, now."
Once they did that, he turned to me:
"What an embarrassing misunderstanding! Can we start over miss Aora?"I agreed while we headed upstairs. When he showed me my room, he took his pink jacket off and was left in a pinkish shirt.
"I am sincerely apologizing for my embarrassing concludions. This is your room...Do you find it comfy? It doesn't matter, we both know the answer. I hope you self-heal soon" He closed the door with a strong force leaving a powerful sound of a speeding bullet.
