Chapter 9 - where's your honour

This is the starting of the end. The war has already begun, who shall wave the flag of victory an who shall fall an never see the face of light again, it all begins now

Finally kluas an his acutance's have a little time for there self's. Battles aren't finished yet but a little relaxing can't be help before they go back on the road. A village called briomoth was where they had been staying after there escape from dregon. After kluas finally got to a understanding of now new found powers. But he knew determination alone couldn't get his kingdom.

" So what's the plan now" minus said looking at kluas while he was devouring one of the native cuisines.

" I honestly don't know. Just know that I have to get some men before I can decide my best move."

" I see, well there's nothing else we can do except enjoy this little bit of freedom."

" Ok minus my man, where too next"

" Hehe, let's go see what the lady's are up to, hmm you like my idea."

" No uh uh ( shakes head), remember those visions I been having?"

" Yeah the ones about our old world"

" yup, I've seen that women use to hate when men spy on them, perverts was the name given to them"

" Hmm, are so they want us to think, let me tell you something boy. A woman's brain is like a labyrinth, always have us men confused we never know which route to take pretty messed up if I should say, so all we have to do is sneak up on them take a little peek exploit our satisfaction there an move on"

" Yeah minus your mind is a very disgusting place."

" So you not coming"

" No I'll just go look around his retched place hardly anything to do around here"

" meh, suit yourself, I'll fulfill my duties as a man and earn my right, ha while you sit here an drink or do whatever it is that your doing"

Minus got up and walk of in a rather tedious manner now life in his foot works rather horrible to watch.

" What is wrong with that guy" kluas asked wondering an then turned back around.

Minus was now at his destination lost in his prying ways, almost deceitful but devoted to his cause to become master at his craft. He was like a predator ready to pounce on his prey. At his act no one seemed to notice even with his nonchalant ways. " oh my, oh my, my, my, my what is this sudden Rush I just felt it's so good, never knew sweets cold fulfil ones hunger now let's get back business, hmm they all seem fine but not my type" he walked by scanning each area as if he was doing reconnaissance. His determination paid off " ah, yes perfect" he continued " let's see what awaits me" he decided to take a peek over the wall that sheltered the body's off the awfully attractive women waiting on the other side when he felt a hand from out of nowhere clawing on his clothes he looked down to see what it was an to his surprise, a woman, dark black her, big voluminous breasts, with a booty the size of a melon, picture perfect. She draged up off the wall an asked what he was doing, feeling to test his look he decided to shoot his shot " do you have a man, doesn't seem like he is apart of your plan, lady you looking like a unsolved math equation, luckily your looking at a great mathematician so great at multiplying and I can solve this problem of yours if you uh let me" arguably the crappiest pick up line I've ever heard, but

" oh such a gentleman, oh I have a problem you can solve for me big boy" she grabbed him by the waist, an got in the quickest room they could find.

" Wonder what the others are up to knowing akena she's probably training her ass, I can't pin down that dynamic trio, there just so weird totally odd people, am minus probably up with to his mischievous deeds, and me I'm here just sitting, ( looks up to the sky) well lest move kluas can't be a slacker forever" kluas then made his headway to the villagers huts, when he can across this familiar presence, there was no mistake about it he definitely knew this person. He looked but nothing seemed out if the ordinary, but he could sense someone's eyes on him, kluas then disappeared in the crowd.

" guys I think someone's following us" kluas dash through the door and said

" who might that be?"christian asked

" I don't have a clue actually, all I can tell us that I felt a odd presence, and I knew someone was watching it felt familiar, almost as if I met him before"

" Could it be that boutnty hunter again, dregon" akena implied showing a great amount of concern.

" there's a possibility for now I'm not certain even if he's not here we better move, just to be on ur safe side." Kluas said.

" What about minus?" Akena ask

" Well get him along the way just gather up our artillery and let's move"

Back at minus.

" WHAT! Say that again" minus said

" where's my pay" the woman implied

Minus look surprised, then it clicked " your prostitute?"

" Yes why else you think I slept with you?"

" Oh my. I'm probably full of stds"

" What are stds?"

" This bitch doesn't even know what stds are, I'm totally fucked, how can I escape this place all my silver coins are finished wait"

"Hey you money don't let me get my boss"

" You impatient bitch, hold let me get my pants"

" Hurry up no funny stuff"

Minus quickly got through a window where he had left his pants.

" you fucking prick where's your honor" the woman yeld

" sigh, unfortunately I don't have any for a god-damn woman who didn't tell she work for that an plus I don't have no money"

" you bastard"

" The sex was lovely really appreciated it"

An kluas was on his way to freedom in this case from the money he owes when he ran into a big muscular man.

" Watch where your going you old geezer"

" Give this old man a break"

" Boss that man owes me money"

" well fuck me aren't you too big to be a pimp young man"

" What's a pimp"

" Well young man, your way too fucking dumb and this old man has no time to talk"

" hey get your ass back here"

Minus ran. So fast his feeble body couldn't keep up.

The boss has finally caught up with him. " I'll give you this your one fast old man"

" Son who you calling old?"

" Just pay up and your free to go it's as simple as that really don't feel like beating an old man today."

" Call me old one more time."

" Pfft, old man"

With a smirk on his face minus smashed his balls in out of place, such a heinous sight. Then ran as fast as he could he three young men compromise his escape, " come on fellas, don't you think this is a tad too eccentric, the whore didn't even say she was a prostitute."

" Really old man, you think someone that pretty would go to bed with the likes of you should have known bette-"

He knock him to the ground " can't take you millennial's, where's your respect" minus made another run for it when finally kluas stumbled upon him

" Minus, if you ever run off like that again I'll leave you behind I swe-"

Kluas went flying toward the wall. They finally had minus cornered.

" you think you can run old man, there's two man of us now pay up"

" I refuse to pay her services were shitty as hell what's up with that she's a prostitute, more like a fraud to me, an all you delinquents, what are you doing wasting your time with that pimp who looks like he's on steroids"

" don't let us ask again you're the one who refused to pay now we have to resort to this where's your honor"

Flash back

I wasn't a trouble maker yet still I always ended up in these types of situations, " where's your honor" they kept chanting I never had any to begin with. Back at my village I stuck out from the others, such a cliché I couldn't hunt, battled lead none of the things men were supposed to do instead all I did was read, read and read, " stand aside" they say " your nothing but a useless son of the chief" an because of those shortcomings I was trampled on by the strong. I'm useless, to the extent, I couldn't even protect my village are my family, my father left me with a promise to fulfill, " son, I know how you have suffered. I watched you struggle through your task, I saw everything the kids who preyed upon you because you were weak. That's our life that we live the strong will always stand above the rest of us. I don't want this life for you run son run use the knowledge that you have accumulated over the past years to help you survive. Promise you will survive" and I promised until this guy, this disputably obnoxious guy came into my life

Present

Kluas you showed me even the weak can over come there challenges, an I won't run from mine anymore, after all I'm an old man have to set an example.

• Minus hit off the attackers, something was different about his actions. He fought valiantly but he alone couldn't take them on. That's when a strange man came out of nowhere an kicked down one of the bosses men, the others began to attack and with a flick of his sword, he sent them all flying, the boss had finally recovered, frustrated after seeing all his men on the floor.

" Hmm, you incompetent fools you made a old man take all of you done"

Not another escape his mouth struck done to the ground.

" oh my, what's this you took all of them down without any effort, you know my team is looking for a man like you, very ambitious young man trying to take back his kingdom, kluas"

The gasp an looked at minus.

" Did you say kluas"

He asked.

" yes kluas"

He drape minus an pulled him closer and said.

" Take me too him"

Kluas an the others were still in the vicinity searching for minus still no luck.

" kluas, we're wasting time, minus probably left ahead of time" chronos suggested

" no that's not like him he wouldn't just leave like that"Kluas continued " we shall continue the search he's here, somewhere."

" who are you, and how do you know of kluas?" Minus asked the stranger.

" that information is not important right now. All you need to know is that I need to see him"

" Look man, you have to give more than that, I won't bring you to him if I don't even know what it is you're after, unless you give me some solid information, you'll never see him"

" Minus!"

" shit!" minus said to himself

" we've been searching for you all over, you really had us worried man, wait who is that"

" Kluas don't come any closer, this man, has some explaining to do"

The stranger fell to his knees, tears like streaming rivers came rushing down his eyes, " I've finally found you, I thought you were dead my young king, if I had given up on my intuition I would have never doing you. The kingdom is in shambles young king and we need you now more than ever, I have groups of men willing to give their lives for the good of the kingdom, I am cipol, former royal guard of the fifth regiment, nice to make your acquaintance, Czar"

Kluas look surprised, for good reasons. " you're from the fifth regiment, the elites, the most badass squad to exist. From what I have heard your team was all wipe out, too bad that's what I wanted to be before I was outcast. Back to the matter at hand your saying you have an army of men ready for war, am I correct"

" Yes"

" And these men can I trust?"

" I have complete faith that they're willing to do anything for the cause. Even there lives"

" And are you ready To give up yours as well, once we go to war with the allegiance, There's no guarantee we'll make it back alive."

He didn't even think about it he just yelled, " I'm ready to fulfill my duties Czar, I have done many dishonorable things, I'm ready to redeem myself"

" well then, seems I have men willing to fight even when the odds are against us, guess we're all maniacs in the end. Take me to your base of operations"

" it's set up near the kingdom of thorn. A nearby village called val lure."

" I'll have to take this up with my team, come on let's go"

Kluas went back to there current base to discuss this unprecedented matter, " looks like we've been served the perfect opportunity on a silver platter, didn't expect this turn of events. Now the question I've yet to ask do you trust this man. He's apart of my kingdom, but so many years has passed. We don't know what the people have been put through yet some manages to escape."

" Kluas you're a buffoon, you can't expect us to trust this man who we have never even met before, your proposal is flawed so much could go wrong we can't take that chance" akena said.

" you're all right, this is an unprecedented idea, so much could go wrong, so may could die, but what if we had just try. It's better to live with regrets than not knowing" cipol added. They knew they had to take caution with this man. After he has been living amongst the king for years, but they'd be foolish if they hadn't contemplated this abstraction. So they decided to see this trough but he was warned. " if this is some type sick twisted ploy, I will kill you without a second thought. Put me and my friends in danger and this ruse of yours that you had planned will end badly for you and your little buddies, now tell me you understand" the vile look kluas had on his face, the room was totally silent not a single noise then cipol decided to speak " you don't trust me that's fine, but let's get one thing straight I'm a man of my words so if you don't have anything else to add let's get a move on"

" words don't mean nothing to me, your actions defines who you are, you heard the man let's get a move on."

The team had left for the village of refugees. After several days of walking the team had came across the camp site, little too quiet. at least that was what all of them were thinking.

" Hey where is everyone?" kluas had asked

" probably on watch, the enemy's base is close by"

The team's suspicions were getting more aroused by his actions.

" everyone hold on, cipol go scout out the area."

" ok Czar I'll be on my way."

Cipol was gone for a while, Kluas was restless, he didn't like feeling this uneasy.

" Kluas?, what's wrong it's only been an hour maybe he has to meet with the others." Akena was trying to calm him down.

" don't tell me that you don't see the problem with this. It has been a while since he has gone, so let's not take that chance, let's move on."

" Please Kluas just a little but longer it can't kill you to wait, just give this a chance."

Kluas looked at everyone else and saw that they all agreed with akena, he exhaled then began, " ok just a little longer, but if he hasn't return in that given time frame we're going to leave this place, got it?"

" I think we all can work with that" Akena replied.

As persistent as they were to see the plan come to fruition, but all the hope they had left was slowly fading. Another hour, and still no sign of cipol.

" seems you were right after all, let's get out of here" minus said.

" yeah let's mo-." Kluas was interrupted by cipol, " wait! I'm here."

Everyone looked back to see cipol climbing over the precipitous hill. Cipol continued, " I'm sorry I wasted your precious time ,but I had to meet with the village elders, see the folks of this town aren't too trusting, for obvious reasons."

" And, the elders, what's the deal with them. Are we going or no?" Kluas asked

" my mistake. After keeping of you waiting for so long. I'm sure you don't want to hear the boring bits, so let's get going then."

To be continued
