Chapter 5 - CHAPTER SIX

waiting was his primal instinct he tasted blood his black cloak covered his face leaving only his eyes that glowed visible the merchant's stopped as soon as they approached him looking at one another he was strange looking and so as one got down accompanied by a slave who held an umbrella to shield him from the hot sun.

he swung his head feeling his claw coming in contact with the merchant's flesh he attacked furiously ending the merchant life quickly he squeezed the head of his slave allowing blood to spill on the sand the other merchant's looked on in horror as one brought out his sword followed by his guards as they charged towards him

" yes more blood" he cried savagely he held the merchant that charged towards him his sword ripping off his hands he twisted his neck leaving him dead he wiped the blood on the side of his clothe and walked dangerously close to the guards the wind blew heavily in that direction finally he could kill as much as he liked bringing out his sword he ran fast cutting down all his foes remaining only the last merchant who gave instructions to leave immediately

" think I will let you escape you all die here"he raced to the last merchant cutting down his guards as he walked slowly laughing maniacally before he cut the head of the last merchant and brought it out digging his sword deep in his chest bringing out the heart biting into it he walked away and climbed on his horse leaving the corpses to rot away.

Aikat reached the capital of neveda getting down from his horse he walked ahead holding the reins of his horse he stopped by a woman selling fruits doling out a few coins he collected an apple and walked on the capital was divided into three sections the higher ring were the rich lived the middle class lived at the middle section while the poor lived at the bottom section he cast his mind back to the screams of the merchant's he killed, lovely sounds to his ears he won't forget. He stopped at a house with its roof peeling and knocked gently he looked back slightly someone was following him, just when he was about to take his dagger, the door was open revealing the head of a female.

"Iris" Aikat muttered as he kept his dagger

" Aikat"

Iris swung the door open for Aikat to enter and fastened it quickly and turned to face aikat who looked drenched in his sweat.

He removed his cloak letting his long black hair loose.

just then his friend bato iris father came out

" Aikat" bato said walking up to Aikat who brought out piece of parchment

" I need to talk to you"Aikat said holding out the parchment Infront of bato who looked at iris

" go iris" bato instructed taking Aikat to a dark room.

he took the parchment from Aikat as they got to the dark room examining them as Aikat took a sit and brought out his sword that was close to his waist he held it out touching the tip with his thumb extending his hand out for the papers from bato

" how did you manage to get these"

" the temple"

" the great temple gave it to me" Aikat said scarastically getting up from his chair he walked to bato holding the blade to his neck

" the real message comes from the kingdom of Lydia but has been destroyed"

" so how did you get these"

" I have a witch who gave it to me"

bato brought Aikat sword away from his throat but Aikat drove it down to his chest

" what is it" bato asked now frightened

" when do I get my army" bato laughed causing Aikat to be more angry than he was

"you have caused alot of trouble and you still ask for an army" Aikat brought his sword to his side

" so what problems"

" half of the kingdoms are looking for a beast that kills people in the desert a huge bounty on your head my Friend"

Aikat smiled at batos words

" that's not a bad thing I thought you meant other things but when I return I want my army no mistakes about that" Aikat said leaving the dark room his sword by his side when he came to where there was light he smiled, iris was waiting for him with food ready for his departure he came to her although he was taller than her he could sense her want of him.she was charming and with skin as smooth as glass but for all her considerable charm,he couldn't find himself drawn to Iris

" when will you be back" iris asked looking at him from lower lashes, she smiled seductively trying and hoping to get his favor

" not soon" Aikat said walking away from the house to the open he took hold of his horse that iris tied to a post and freed it settling the food on the saddle

" you always say that" iris said softly coming close to Aikat who inhaled her scent she was a virgin the hot fire coursing through her vein could not be quenched she wanted it all but he would give her none he got up on his horse steadying himself as he turned.

" good bye" iris said walking away from to the door of her house as her father emerged outside

" bye" Aikat muttered and beat his horse with a whip sending the animal running fast he heard the screams and shout along with the curses of people as he rode fast with his horse he wanted to go back to his kingdom back to the ashes but no he would go to Egypt from there he would see a witch who could help him disguise himself very well. If what bato said was true then he needed more protection around himself to be secured.
