I tapped my fingers against the wooden table that was placed next to the window. I was being held in the castle of Sinbad's home and was given the best treatment. I felt lonely though. I missed the small home I lives in. I looked at the letter once more and read it.
Apophis,
I wish for your help in finding someone your familiar with. The name is Gamal Hightail. He has murdered and raped several women andust be brought down. You are the only one whom knows his where abouts and information to bring him to justice. I hope you help my kingdom so that it may be a safer place.King Sinbad
Once again I felt the same urge to except but nothing was going to benefit me in the end. He was most likely going to lock me up afterwards. Officially frustrated and in the mood for something fruity, I pushed back and left my room. I pushed open my door then closed it leaving the safety of it. I walked down the halls peeking in several rooms. Few where lit with workers in filling out papers and filing others. Some where even disposing of papers in a fire. Nothing interesting. I walked down another hallway sighing in defeat. No longer was food on my mind but simple exploration of the castle. Suddenly I was yanked into a room as the door slammed shut on me. I shoved the person off only to notice a face I knew in the dim light. My Aunt. "What in the gods names are you doing here!?." She hissed at me. I chuckled and stepped back. "Thought you'd actually be a threat. I'm here on Buisness. " I said crossing my arms. My aunt's worn face was frowning as the wrinkles fell. "Says who?." She challenged. "Ask Sinbad. He requested my assistance." I explained. Her face fell in relief. "So he sent for you." I was pulled into a tight hug. "I'm glad to see you. " She breathed out. I patted her shoulder and pulled away. "Same. Where's the kitchen? " She laughed and gestured for me to follow. "Still such a strange appetite huh? " She said and led me down the halls. "Fruit I'm assuming you want? " I nodded and she opened a door. "Second container to the right. " I walked over and opened the container to see many fruits. Two apple is what I chose and stuffed one into my hip bag. "Thanks. Apocalypse will love this." I said and walked out. "Now I need an exit. Could you poof that up? " She took off once more. This time an opened area in the wall was what led us out. "Better than a window. " I said causing her to laugh. As we entered the, what I assumed to be, courtyard I noticed a tall firm frame with a horse. My horse. I quickened my pace slightly angered. "Get off my horse! " I called out. Sinbad turned facing me. I jumped back slightly. "My apologies Sinbad. I thought you where someone else." I said which he simply brushed it off. "You have a fine horse. What name was chosen for him? " He asked and I walked up patting Apocalypse's neck. "Apocalypse." I said which he chuckled at. "Should've guessed. Seems like a name you would chose. " I smiled and pulled put the apple I took for Apocalypse. He devoured the core and all with two bites. "Your not starving asshole. " I said and gently slapped his neck. "Don't use such language in front of our Pharaoh! " My aunt commanded slapping the back of my head. Sinbad chuckled along with Apocalypse which earned them a Glare. "Is this your wonderful neice Lapis? " Sinbad asked noticing our resemblance. "Sadly yes. Apologies for her speech though. " I huffed and hugged Apocalypse's head. "She's everything you've explained. More actually. " My heart fluttered slightly at his words. I haven't been complimented in so long I forgot what it felt like. "Lapis. I would like clothes to be prepared and given to dearest Apophis for tomorrow as well as for the rest of the week. She must be tired of wearing such rags. " My aunt nodded as I looked to Sinbad. "But I like my rags. Good for cleaning when you spill water on yourself." Sinbad laughed at me kindly. I smiled at him. "I will get right on it sir. " My aunt said then winked to me and left. "She's something isn't she? " I asked. Sinbad chuckled and looked to me. "Have you made your decision yet?" He asked and I sighed. "I have one condition." I said and he nodded. "Leave the Scorpions alone as well as our home. " I said and he tilted his head. "That is all? " I blinked confused. "What else would I want? " I asked. He shrugged and patted Apocalypse's side. "Someone would ask for forever riches and such. " I shook my head. "All I want is my friends and homes safety. " I said. Sinbad looked at me and smiled. "I guess you aren't just beautiful. " He cooed. I blushed slightly and smiled back. "Your smart as well. I will allow your condition. " He put his hand out to me. I took his gently and smiled. He leaned down and kissed the top of my hand. "It's a pleasure to work with you Apophis. " I blushed more.
This man is going to make my heart stop.
