Opening my eyes I noticed a weight on my face, I brought my hand to my face and picked whatever was causing the weight. It was a book, I guess I'd fallen asleep while reading. I got out of bed, and walked to my dresser. I pulled out black baggy capris, and a white short sleeved shirt which had strings connecting the V shape at the center of the collar.
Taking a deep breath in, I opened my door and left my room. Walking down the staircase I thought I heard yelling, but it soon stopped so I just guessed my mind was playing tricks on me. I reached the bottom of the staircase just to see Akira running across the room, then a small person dashed by. They wore a white undershirt and a brown vest. Their pants were black and their shoes were brown boots that reached to the middle of their lower leg.
I'm their hand they held a knife, seeing this I dove towards them. I landed on top and we both fell to the ground, we wrestled but in the end I was able to disarm him. I raised my fist and punched their face until they passed out. Akira came over and looked at the person, he smiled and whistled.
"Shouldn't you have been able to knock him out uncle Akira?" I asked crossing my arms as I stood up.
"Well I was bored, so I wanted to act like I was so very weak and then surprise them!" He answered putting his hands on his hips. I smiled and chuckled "sure does sound like something you'd do."
I picked the person up and started dragging them away, eventually another of our servants saw us and helped out. We brought the person down into the dungeons that hid beneath the castle. We then tied them up, and put them in a cell while we waited for them to wake up.
It took around thirty minutes for them to wake up, but they were still groggy so we poured a few buckets of ice water on them. When they were fully woken up, I asked "so why did you have that knife?"
"Ha! Why would I tell you!" He yelled back. Akira sighed and his eyes started to glow purple, he watched the person for a long time with his glowing eyes. Eventually he blinked and a sinister grin crossed his face. He left the cell and three minutes later he came back, he held a small child's hand. I stared at him for a long moment and watched the persons eyes darken. "Leavey family out of this!" The person yelled.
Akira tied the child's hands and feet, then he pulled out the same knife the person had held. "Uncle Akira you don't have to go that far." I said putting my hand up.
Akira put on an innocent smile and said "if you want answers," his smile became sinister and he put the knife to the child's knee "you have to do anything and everything. That is your first lesson."
He slid the knife down peeling the skin away from the child's knee. The child screamed and started trying to get away, I took a step back. Akira then went to the child's other knee, then to the child's right elbow, and after that the left elbow.
At that point The person started screaming and begging for Akira to stop. When the child seemed to pass out Akira stopped, and asked "ready to answer our questions now?"
"Yes, yes I'll tell you anything." The person yelled tears streamed down their face. Akira smiled innocently again and asked "so why were you trying to attack me?"
"I-I was ordered to, my family are servants to the kings youngest brother. He wanted to get rid of you so that the king would grief." The person answered. Akira watched the person and nodded then asked "okay then, why didn't you do it secretly?"
The person took in a deep shaky breath and he said "because I didn't want to do it. I hoped that you'd capture me, and I could tell you what happened."
"So why did you refuse when Sage asked?" Akira continued. "Because I don't trust him, he's a kid and he'll tell someone who will tell the kings youngest brother!" They explained glaring at me.
I clicked my tongue and said "just because I'm a kid doesn't mean I'm not capable of stuff. I was the one to beat you, and I hold many, many secrets."
"Like what?" Akira asked amused. I stared at him and with an innocent smile said "like the one where uncle Akira tortured a child which is banned in this castle, and if my father found out uncle Akira would most likely die."
Akira's smile became nervous and he said "r-right you keep that secret."
