Legendary Volume 3 - Guilty By Design

Chapter 5

Eric sat in the back of a limousine, looking rather deep in thought. He was accompanied by two others, the two who had come to retrieve him from his training earlier. One was a fair skin toned female with long, golden hair. She was slender and her figure was very model like. Her lips were a pale shade of pink and here eyes maroon colored. She was staring out her open window, her black hood completely tossed aside as she sat in a black tank top and blue jean shorts.

The other was a male with short black hair. He was slender too and was staring at his hands, as if deep in thought too. His dark gray eyes were still and it seemed like he wasn't even blinking. Eric began to feel uneasy. Ever since joining up with the Forsaken, he's always felt a slight uneasiness. The organization had its hands on all kinds of resources. It also used fear to control some and false promises of riches to control others. Countless of clueless fodder was at its command.

The Core 10 was specifically scary. Ten individuals, all with massive power, so much that even at his strongest, Eric knew he wouldn't be able to take a single one down. Even the two in this limo with him could kill him with relative ease. He only had personally seen the face of these two, Trinity and Hadeus. They were basically his baby sitters. He was pleased by this however because so far, they seemed rather nice to him and he was thankful considering their ranks of VIII and IV respectively.

Everyone was else was a mystery. He knew the leader's name was Lucius and that IX and X were Dragoonity, but that was pretty much it. He hadn't seen the face of anyone else and their true agenda was just as much a mystery him now as it was when he first came. He was filled in on some things, but still left in the dark about almost everything that they did, all despite constantly being referred to as the unofficial XI. None of it mattered to him though. The Forsaken had promised to find his brother and help him get his hands on him, that's all that he cared about.

But again, this extended silence made him uneasy. Not that he didn't enjoy the silence, but he didn't feel right about it.

“Hey...where are we going?" he asked coldly.

“Well will you look at that? The Prince has decided to grace us with a conversation." Hadeus smirked as he looked up at Eric.

“I don't have time for your jokes or remarks. Where is Dominic?"

“Oh calm down now will you? Did you forget that we just traveled by human means from the Himalayas to America? That's quite a long journey and we still have more to go. Be patient now will you....Oh, put your head back in the window." He said to Trinity who was sticking her head out the window as they drove down a highway.

“Why?" she complained, “You made me sit on that boring eight hour plane ride, is it wrong for me to want fresh air?"

“Stop acting like a child, will you? And put your hood on. You aren't on some summer vacation."

“That stupid hoodie's too hot. Eric, you agree don't you?" she asked the shirtless Eric as he sat down with his arms crossed.

“I don't care about that, where's Dominic?"

“Honestly Eric, I wish you'd put a shirt on too. It's a hassle already having human girls swoon over me when I'm in public, but you too shirtless? That's just too much." Hadeus said playfully.

Eric then growled, aggravated. He began to reach for Hadeus, “Where's Domi-"
