Φ While sitting on my p Mime says, “Old dy we’re sorry!”
Anto sitting on Atanta’s p says, “We just wanted dy!”
Knitting away on the scarf Dush says, “Orb do you hear anything?”
“Are we really doing this?”
“e on take my side.”
“How about we solve this issue like this, the twins will work off their mistake. Because we won’t be getting this scarf doh just the three of us, isn’t that right Atanta?”
Ign me Atanta tio knit away with extreme focus. I don’t think I have ever seen her so trated on anything like this, my words must have touched her heart, “How cute!”
“Orb stop existing to me you are breaking my tration,” she says while giving me a gh stern eyes.
“Um, sorry!”
Getting up from our ps the twins go up to Dush and say, “Where should we start?”
“Listen up, just go like this through this. Hey, are you two paying attention.”
“Sranny, we are just so enticed by your teique.”
“The way you move your hands is so beautiful.”
Bashfully Dush says, “Oh you two stop it. ELLIOT E HERE!”
Suddenly a hole appears on the ground and out of it springs Elliot.
“How did you do that?”
“I have a series of tunnels set through all of Skydust to help me reach dy Dush quickly where ever she may be.”
“Elliot, I need some sweats for these kids.”
“I have it here,” Elliot says throwing the sweets into Anto and Mime's mouths.
“Do you just carry that stuff around with you?”
“A true butler knows what his master wants before they even ask.”
I guess even the non-artisans still hoheir field to perfe, every sed I spend in this try I feel even more inferior, and my self-esteem is plummeting.
Φ Thieves rule number 5; people are weak to cute things and pliments, use both together and you beat any oppo.
Our pn worked without a hitch, master teags always e in handy.
Now, this old dy is giving me and my brother all the dy we want, this is our victory.
Φ Judging by the evil smile on Anto and Mime's faces I guess they set this up on Dush, those two need some discipline. But aren’t they both just so cute, I want to gobble them up.
“Orb the weirdness leaking off of you is distrag, trol yourself or you might start ag like Ai.”
Atanta parison immediately calms me down auro my senses.
“Orb!” I hear a voice say.
Leaving Dush’s little hut I go outside to see Suzuka, Cyrus, and someone else.
“Did you two finish your business?”
“Sort of, but that is in fact what we came to talk to you about Orb. This man behind us wants to talk to you.”
Walking up to me the man stretches out his hand and says, “Hello I am Jeter Mercury the king of Skydust.”
“EHHHHH! Suzuka how do you and Cyrus know royalty?”
“It is a long story.”
“Well, whatever.” Turning to face Jeter, I invoke all my manners and say, “Hello good sir, my name is Orb, it is truly a heavenly blessing to be in your preseoday.”
“Woah, you’re rather fancy,” Jeter says.
Oh, shit is he more causal than that, this is my first-time meeting royalty and I have already messed up. As I start to freak out Jeter says, “You don’t have to get so worried sin fact, I came here to ask you for a favour.”
“A favour?”
“Yes, but I would like to discuss it somewhere else.”
“Follow us, Jetty boy,” Dush says.
“I told you not to call me that.”
“I am 40 years your elder, I will call you whatever the hell I want, Jetty boy.”
“We have a room ready since we were expeg your arrival, my king,” Elliot says.
“Let’s go Orb.”
-Break-
Dropping my cup of tea, I stop in my tracks and say, “Are you insane, Yoing to go to war with Gevurah.”
“Orb mind your manners, putting your hands oable is rude,” Dush says. Looking at Dush the aura around her has pletely ged, she isn’t ag like the sporadian I have known but that of a woman who befits her title, her presence is just as heavy as Ai's when she is serious.
“When I caught wind of Percy’s return I k would devolve into this. So I am guessing the reason you’re here is to use the Zterytavis’s to evacuate the children?”
“You read my mind Dush, it be done.”
“Well of course it , I am not going to let all our you killed in a war. But where are we going to evacuate them to? Many tries will abuse the skill sets of our young, they might be forced ireme bour.”
“That’s why I have e to talk to Orb.” Getting on his hands and knees Jeter says, “I beg you please take the kids with you. I know this is a lot to ask but I heard about your adventure from Suzuka and know you have a secure pce to keep them.”
He must be talking about Maples vilge Aplos, “Wait a sed, how do you even know you trust me.”
“Granny Dush would never be around an untrustworthy person, and Suzuka and Cyrus’s words about you are always full of love, so I believe you're trustworthy. So I beg you please take them in.”
Φ Looking at Orb I see him put his hand to his fad have a stressed expression, with his hair als red. “I am sorry I ’t indulge something so selfish.”
“Was my request too much?”
“Hell yes it was, do you even realize how utterly devoid of kindness you have to be to make your try go to war over your son's as.”
“Orb,” I say as he tio fill with anger. I have known Orb only for a little time but the anger he has in his face isn’t something I thought he was capable of.
Seeing this I try to read Orb's thoughts, but his head is overflowing with thoughts, and his emotions are fiery hot, I barely read them.
“You’re literally about to ruin your try and its entire history over your son's foolish as. Your son made a choid should take responsibility.”
“I am sorry, but we have decided to not hand him over to Gevurah, my son is just a kid and has made a mistake.”
Filled with erratiger, Orb says, “The world doesn’t care if you’re a child or not, if you do something that gets people killed all of that falls on your head. To deny such a thing would be the most disgusting thing a human could do. But instead of making your son take responsibility for his choices you would rather risk everyone’s lives on this!!”
“I am aware of all this, but he is my son.”
“So what, when he makes this mistake again you’re just going to bail him out again.”
“I won’t let this ever happen again.”
“How the hell am I supposed to trust a man who would betray not only his people but the very history of his try? Your stupid son is about t destru to Skydust.”
“Skydust will not fall, we aren’t going into this battle without a pn, and even in the worst case we intend him on fighting to our st breath.”
Increasingly getting more anger Orb breaks the table and then activates his legacy, swinging his arm forward he partially freezes a part of Jeter's body.
“Orb what are you doing!”
“Sorry Suzuka, but I o make a point. Jeter, I have been around Skydust and I know for a fact you guys aren’t even slightly a militaristic try, you’re all soft creatives who aren’t fit for battle much less war with a superpower like Gevurah.”
“Still, we will fight.”
“Then you leave me no choice, I will go and hand over Percy myself.”
“Orb you ’t be serious.”
“I am dead serious, you see that is the reality of this situation, someone like me could easily get past everyone in this try and take Percy. And I am all but certain that Gevurah has people strohan me. YOU SEE THIS JETER, THIS IS THE REALITY YOU FACE!!”
“You really are a kind boy; I was right to choose you.”
Gritting his teeth, Orb says, “Has fear made you delirious?”
“Ever since I brought up my pn you have been trying your best to vince me against it.”
“What the hell are you on about.”
“Sorry, but I have two kids, seeing through nonsense is something I have had to learn. If you wao make Percy take full responsibility you wouldn’t have told anyone and would’ve snuck Percy to Gevurah in the middle of the night.”
“Shut up!”
“But instead, you stayed here and tried to get me to uand, even as I am frozen now, I fully know you won’t take Percy by force you simply respect my free will too much.”
“I said shut up!!”
“Sorry but regardless of all the reasons you have stated, I choose to help my son, and the people of Skydust choose the same.”
The ice Orb created quickly turns to snow, which allows Jeter to walk free. Seeing Orb his hair turns pitch bck, with all the anger he had been showing vanishing. Walking up to Orb, Jeter pats him on the head.
“War is a horrible thing, in so many books I have read the end of their civilizations is always at the hand of war. A try such as Skydust shouldn’t be added to the list of those civilizations.”
“Don’t worry, I will make sure that won’t happen, but it will only be possible if you answer my question.”
“That’s unfair?”
“I know it is, so will you take the kids with you?”
“Just for now, but I am definitely going to return them all.”
“That’s what I hope as well.”
Φ g her hands Dush says, “That was a good show, but what are you going to do about this table.”
“Sorry, I was trying to prove a point, I will fix it ter,” I say embarrassed
“It's fine I am just messing with ya. But now that we are sorted, we o get to the other business.”
“Other business?”
“Yes, the leading of the Zterytavis. To trol a guidance of Zterytavis’s you o have an Alpha leading the group, otherwise, we won’t be able to trol such a big group.”
“But how do you trol them usually?”
Elliot says, “Normally we never dispatch them in such a big group and have well-trained riders so this isn’t an issue, but with a group, this rge and mainly children ridde will probably be a big problem.”
Jeter rubbing the back of his head says, “I was hoping you would have a solution to that?”
“You dumbass! Do you just think I have answers for everything, you really are the same tump-sug, floor-shitting brat Jetty.”
Looking over at Jetty he looks depressed by Dushes words, poor Jetty but we have issues to deal with and maintaining his pride isn’t one. “Wait a sed.”
“What is it Orb?”
“Alpha wonderbeasts gain trol over other wonderbeasts because A; they release stronger pheromones and B; because of their size. So, if we cover a big obje Zterytavis pheromones we should be able to guide them.”
“But where would we find a giant flying object?”
Letting out a snicker I say, “I know just this pce.”
