~ June 1792
Francis stretched his back like a cat, as he gave a lazy smile, his long golden hair shined so bright, his curls just like his mother's hair, it was ruffled by the wind,
It's been ten summers since he lost his family, and Theo became his only family, together they had caused a lot of trouble since then, lots of trouble, starting from all the sorceress back at his village, he threw them away,, banishing them even when they begged and plead innocent, he refused to listen to them, Theo advising him to have them killed instead, and Francis marveled at his cold heart, he used to be the kind and sensible one!...
But instead he banished them, and set a death sentence for those who returned, and he ruled ruthlessly, no one could come to the great hall to feast freely now, and he asked that they be whipped terribly, at any slight annoyance, everyone was scared of him, and no one came close to them, like they did to his father, and that was what he wanted!
They pillaged and took lands controlled by the babarians for a long time now, Theo was like his father so strong, and a great swordsman, but so was Francis, they were called "the fair tyrants, as they often go into different castles not under the King's protection, or not with allegiance to the king. and took what they wanted, they also made sure that the other person was safe, that was what mattered most to them..
Word had spread then, about the fair tyrants and their prowess, so as he flexed his muscle and waited till it was time to attack the unsuspecting people, he let a slow smile take over..
"So how do you like your birthday gift?, Theo asked him as he came to join him, they were both so handsome, and Francis turned to give him a sweet smile..
"It is okay, you did a great job he said, then turned to look at the village again, they had made so much money from all they did, and each time they were reported to the king, they made sure they tracked some of the Babarians, and the lands they were holding, and they held quite alot now, they were flatly becoming a threat to the whole lands, when they get them after tracking, they killed them, and go with the enemy's heads to the king, and the court, that way the whole court and even the king had nothing to say... and they would have to let them go, women shunned their daughters from talking to them at the ball, or talking to them, in fact not to look their way, bit it only made them more attractive to the debutantes, they chased them like flies, and they ended up ruined, or in tears, Francis couldn't love anyone, as he promised himself, and the well couldn't forget about his black haired beauty, he wondered how she would have looked like now, she would have seen eighteen summers now, and was sure to be a beauty!, but he couldn't have her, they lived without caring for anyone but themselves...
"You can show a little more enthusiasm, wait till you see the next town I prepared for you, Theo said as they prepared for the attack..
"Well try to impress me because I am not, I did better for your birthday, Francis said as he sharpened his blade,
"Did better!, you got me some dirt poor village, with nothing, my lord!, did you forget, Theo shouted at him and he shrugged
"Stop whining like a little girl, he told Theo, and Theo's eyes blazed with fury...
"I hope you enjoy your birthday gift my lord, Theo said with a mock bow, and Francis laughed at that, he was just so easy to rile up...
They charged into the village, taking apart everything that was in their way, but they didn't hurt women or children, they made sure of it....
At the end of the plundering, like every other time, they still felt oddly not satisfied, and still hurt, they were unable to find the people who murdered their family..
