" Orpheus, You can't eat that. It's dirty. "
Zenith said staring at energetic Orpheus. After familiarizing itself from it's new home it easily adjusted towards it's new environment.
As if hearing it's owner call him, it swayed it's tail left and right while humming a soft snort. It elagantly jumped down the bookshelves and abandoned the now shredded books.
" Oww... "
The little one rubbed itself at the walls when....
Bang!
The wall suddenly shook and and a passage way appeared. Zenith's pupils shook, he turned his head towards the little guy.
" This... "
" Meowu! "
Orpheus innocently tilted it's head appearing as if it didn't understand it's owners complicated mood.
Hah-
He sighed as he shook his head. He shook the bells at the bedside table. The door opened and Astrophel entered.
" Master do you need something? "
Astrophel said as he casually glanced towards the open passage way before unhesitatingly shifting his sight.
" I need your help. "
" Hn. "
Astrophel curtly answered before pushing him towards the dark passage way. Orpheus quietly followed behind.
The passage way was truly dark but for some reason Astrophel steadily walked while pushing him. They didn't bump into something. Zenith felt something climbed into his lap, it was Orpheus.
" Ophel. Is there some candles here? Can't you lit some? "
Zenith softly said as he felt uncomfortable for some reason. If it weren't for the sounds of wheels and their echoing footsteps he will truly think he was all alone. Thankfully, Orpheus felt it's owners anxious state and hurriedly pressed his paws at the man's lap and uttered a cry.
" Aw! Aw! "
Zenith gently stroked it's short but fluffy fur.
" There are some. "
Zenith finally breathe a sigh of relief after hearing the other man's voice. Sometimes he truly found Astrophel's silence annoying, especially right now.
" Good. "
They stopped for a while before he heard the sounds of clicking and finally one of the candles were lit. It illuminated some small part of the long but narrow path making the youth finally breath a sigh of relief.
They keep on stopping from time to time to lit the candles making the passage way bright. Zenith worriedly looked towards the front. He didn't know what kind of monster is waiting out there.
' 0017. Monitor the place. Keep it in check, and give me some useful weapons. "
