Shen's quick reaction left Umi speechless, what did he say just now? 'Repeat what?' How is it that he suddenly couldn't remember what he just said... unless perhaps was Shen jealous he wasn't invited? Did he choose the wrong brother to tease him with? Maybe he had a twin complex .. come to think of it he and those brothers of his all straightened up once the other one arrived.
Like last night Shen wore a black mask covering his face, the little jewels imbedded along the seams glittered when the sunlight hit it. He was wearing a dark black coat covering his family's crest on his shoulder but his armor underneath was polished to perfection and reflected lightly in Umi's face making him feel discomfort in the pit of his stomach ... he was intimidated and uncomfortable with Shen's assault.
Why did he open his mouth...he reminisced how Shen held him last night and it gave him butterflies in his stomach...
Was he mad? He only wanted to ruffle Shen's 'feather' and receive that ticklish feeling again, but this great boss was even angrier than last night! He definitely chose the wrong brother to like. He should have ignored this guy from the beginning!!
"Ughh stop put me down!" Umi held his stomach and closed his eyes at Shen's sparklingness.
Shen angry held Umi's collar tighter refusing to let him down as shook him, back and forth as he questioned. "Did you see my brothers again last night?" Even through his anger his questioning was laced with concern.
"Oiii Stapphhhh shaking..-
-Blugrghhhh-
Umi held his stomach and threw up, tossing chunks and all the undigested alcohol in his stomach ...straight onto Shen's face.
"..."
Shen put Umi down quickly and grabbed at his face wiping off all the disgusting remnants off his face angrily. He tore off his mask and used a towel from his spacial ring to wipe himself off.
Shen walked to the window dragging Umi and tossing him out in a wooden tub where the horses drank their water from.
"Disgusting.. Nae watch over him, I'm going to clean off." Rai Shen angry walked away to buy a room to clean off in.
Unknown to Shen the old man sitting at the table across the room was watching his every move.
"Found you.. Hmhmm.." the old man laughed darkly. He got up and dissolved into the shadows.
Once in the room Shen headed straight for the tub located in the corner of the room.
He tore off his coat and started unlatching the clasps on his armor undressing till he was left in nothing but his trousers.
-Knock Knock-
"Young Master your waters ready." A feminine voice called from the other side.
When Shen opened the door the serving girl was pushed into the room and the water was tossed all over the floor.
"Ahhh.." the girl screamed hoping to latch onto the handsome half naked man in the room.
Shen quickly avoided the girl and she was flung to the ground.
"..."
"Hmhmm, just as I thought." The old man from downstairs walked out of the shadows and looked without concern at the girl rolling on the wet floor. He leaned against the door frame and took a moment to fully appreciate Shen's appearance. "Your truly heartless leaving the way you did last night.. Little Heathen.."
Shen looked back at the old man nonchalantly.. but hearing 'last night' and 'Little Heathen' caused countless ripples in heart.
Seeing Shen's eyes glowing with realization at his identity ..the old man cleared off his disguise.
Lord Riddles handsome appearance caused Shen's eyebrows to furrow.
'How did my little Shin'er get mixed up with this ugly dog.'
Noticing Shen's furrowed eyebrows and darkening aura, pleased Lord Riddle greatly.
"Cat caught your tongue?" The Silver-haired man walked around Rai Shen satisfied with his fine build and muscular back. "Hmhmm, looking for your brothers are you?"
Shen's expression darkened... "Where are they?"
"Tch.. finally got a response, is your nightlife personality your real-self or this wooden block?" Lord Riddle leaned in to touch Shen's collar bone with his finger tip about to caress it across to the other end.
Shen caught Lord Riddles hand before it touched him, and yanked Lord Riddle forward taking him by surprise, grabbing ahold of his robes pulling him close to his face.
"Where are my brothers." Rai Shen said Icily his menacing aura felt like a mountain suppressing Lord Riddle.
The girl on the floor coughed up blood and passed out, unable to withstand the strong force of Shen's cultivation.
Lord Riddle looked at Rai Shen with surprise. He was currently a Spirit Overlord and very rarely ran a cross someone stronger than him, the only people in this Region to hit anything higher than his where all older than a hundred years and most were revered as respected Elders.
Shen looked like he was barely hitting his Twenties!
Wait ...
Riddle looked around the room finding Shen's armor on the floor.. noticing the Royal crest... he recalled ..
The rumors about the Jade Emerald Kingdom's Crowned Prince being a Spirit Monarch at Seventeen..... wait then .... this man he just eye fucked and almost .... and last night ... this ... thiss ...was The Crowned Prince!!
"Shit, your the Crowned Prince!" Lord Riddle cries out his body slumped in defeat.
Shen ignored his outburst and shook him. "I won't ask again.."
"I don't know! After last night the Princess went missing and that caused chaos which I used to, go after you I didn't know you and your brother separated until you questioned the Captain, I came to higher him to find you.. but you found me!" Lord Riddle protested.
"What princess?!" Rai Shen asked nervously.
"The Spirit Crystal Kingdoms Lu Lorraine was actually that Blue eyed girl you gave your first too....-" Lord Riddles sentence was cut off by the waves of heat radiating off of Shen.
Riddles eyes and face turned red as he struggled to breathe.
Shen let go of Lord Riddle and reigned in his anger... Shinah wouldn't do such a thing.. besides Kiyoshi and Siyan were guarding her, there's no way they would let anyone taint his Little Shin'er.
But now he was furious if that little runt from The Spirit Crystal Kingdom runs into Shinah she'll be upset! And if that little runt tried to kidnap his precious sister .... he would burn his kingdom along with him with it to the ground.
He had to find her before that little runt did..
"This Captain you came to find ... why?" Rai Shen questioned Lord Riddle as he was crawling away.
"His contracted beasts has the ability find anything." Lord Riddle turned around to answer Shen once he was caught.
"Mm" Rai Shen walked towards Riddle and hit the back of his neck knocking him unconscious.
Rai Shen tossed the girl out the room demanding more bath water and tied up Lord Riddle leaving him in a sack cloth, bundled in a corner then finally bathed.
