“Be silent. I would suggest you think very carefully about your next phrase for433Please respect copyright.PENANACbl9jceGPF
I might not allow you to even finish it.”433Please respect copyright.PENANAgpSZR9ZHKu
Celle drew her weapon, and for the first time since this mission began, someone was433Please respect copyright.PENANAYulDI5XzfA
taking an aggressive stance. Dhanel Marce however, remained silent the whole time, as433Please respect copyright.PENANAp0cfyg4UiR
he kept on watching from outside the circle. He was likely pondering about more than433Please respect copyright.PENANAcNGB1PAssh
just this scene happening in front of him.433Please respect copyright.PENANANCSz9FXtyQ
“Come then, speak one more word.” she smiled “Please.”433Please respect copyright.PENANAJGo1VTV5NA
Red never moved, even though he was the target of such a threat; perhaps he433Please respect copyright.PENANAcyqTOnWdVv
was not aware of the magnitude of the opponent in front of him, or perhaps he was433Please respect copyright.PENANAqqupp3FVvX
confident in his own abilities. Or maybe he just knew his old friend too well, and was433Please respect copyright.PENANAvRkIbsYBDD
certain that he would never lose control of this situation. Red kept his feet rested and433Please respect copyright.PENANAOby7QMeFj3
a calm head, perhaps more so than any other present here. The others however, seemed433Please respect copyright.PENANA6U5vYq45H2
agitated for they knew Celle for quite a while and how she could be. All apart from433Please respect copyright.PENANA8ihYBvBBUp
the leader of this party, who so far had been completely absent despite how much the433Please respect copyright.PENANAK50HOiqrZ5
tensions were rising...433Please respect copyright.PENANAx2l21IRMEO
“I just did.” said Red as Celle’s eyes grew more furious “And I will do so again.433Please respect copyright.PENANA9eVLeQ1QeA
Pay close attention now, as I resume my questions knowing you will do nothing.”433Please respect copyright.PENANAqg1jQRTajm
“Red you are not helping,” said Deena but Red would continue freely...433Please respect copyright.PENANAU2GiU3qVEz
“Marce, isn’t it time for you to put this puppet back on her tight leash?”433Please respect copyright.PENANA3gu8QlS9MX
Celle did not even have the time to raise her weapon properly before Dhanel Marce433Please respect copyright.PENANAdheAA6jZeE
finally stepped in to bring an end to this situation. “Celle that’s enough,” he said very433Please respect copyright.PENANAbQCWGX2x1w
calmly, very confident in both his authority, as well as in the discipline of those under433Please respect copyright.PENANAvAx7h7FeWf
him.433Please respect copyright.PENANAqt7HyCDBCW
She did, as always, as she was told, and once her weapon was sheathed on her back,433Please respect copyright.PENANAaFizeTLjnl
she took a few steps away. Infuriated but always disciplined.433Please respect copyright.PENANAcQdwwER2q2
“Nothing but a puppet,” Red added gaining in this way one last look of the Elvorides433Please respect copyright.PENANAYnLbv6uSCH
woman, as this short but somewhat intense introduction, finally came to a close.433Please respect copyright.PENANAfS1ilN5Icq
“That’s enough out of you as well.” Dhanel Marce pointed at him, he was serious433Please respect copyright.PENANAlXEKgLVJrW
and after a few more circling steps he would then continue...433Please respect copyright.PENANAKP0vKTYNzP
“Am I to assume then Red, that you are here now for the same old reason? Am I to433Please respect copyright.PENANAffHa1rInp2
assume you just can’t let it go?” the captain continues “I will also assume then, that you433Please respect copyright.PENANATj5O1FI2wj
haven’t forgotten our history and conduct, of how we operate and are thus fully aware433Please respect copyright.PENANANsb94JAbn4
of what a predicament this is. Now I know both Deena and Rhim over there would433Please respect copyright.PENANAljhpjJ2qOT
have no problem in us simply ignoring you and continuing with our mission. Lorian,433Please respect copyright.PENANAGSAq6fFoDd
well, he is like me, he is indifferent and whatever I end up deciding is fine by him.433Please respect copyright.PENANAzWfaAPEGar
But Celle, she likes being somewhat of a stiff and as such, she seems not too comfortable433Please respect copyright.PENANAZZM3rCGXH0
in ignoring you. So, what to do Red? What to do?”433Please respect copyright.PENANAY76fz6htli
The leader of this outfit keeps asking himself as if waiting for an answer, a solution433Please respect copyright.PENANA2CJUoqV8Dx
he already knows is coming “Red this is serious. This is the most important mission433Please respect copyright.PENANAtYRrINuNAE
ever assigned to the Hervies Hand, way more important than anything you or I have433Please respect copyright.PENANAZLDs5iGu6X
ever had to pull off in our days, and one with time growing ever scarce.”433Please respect copyright.PENANA8NMD3WEtR3
“You are going to the facility atop of that mountain, aren’t you? What else would433Please respect copyright.PENANAX0BeooNTd1
bring the five all the way here? Then you know my answer” Red said, “take me with433Please respect copyright.PENANATVmRWYXj0G
you…”433Please respect copyright.PENANAHOfeNOtsjs
If anyone anywhere could ever say that they once saw Dhanel Marce chuckle, then433Please respect copyright.PENANApKHM1KCSEJ
this was the moment they would all be referring to.433Please respect copyright.PENANAKBBcg1lHNP
“You jest?!” Celle asked.433Please respect copyright.PENANAM8CntBe1zG
“No.” Red continued as he looked in the captain’s eyes “You know all too well what433Please respect copyright.PENANAUhAOme6o3Z
my reasons are.” a small pause “You also know that you owe me...” Red concluded...433Please respect copyright.PENANAePBYi1RWfv
Silence then followed from everybody, and maybe Harigar Rhim and Deena knew433Please respect copyright.PENANAuW1wFE3cty
what Red meant as they had worked together for an exceptionally long time, or maybe433Please respect copyright.PENANAsIEqEfsT6M
it was something even before all of that. Maybe they did or maybe they didn’t.433Please respect copyright.PENANAfa35qm58I0
Still, none around those two dared to break that moment, as even Celle’s upcoming433Please respect copyright.PENANAZT6FWgW8hF
frustration was put on a halt for the time being, for even she had curiosity towards433Please respect copyright.PENANAcAY2f91qnu
what just had been said and was hoping that more words would follow to quench it.433Please respect copyright.PENANA2kgwguTfpy
“Are you going to play that big card on me?”433Please respect copyright.PENANA7w1B6WzBmt
“If that is what it takes.” Red replied, “I cannot afford to miss this chance.”
Dhanel Marce listened as he had never listened before, for this decision and the433Please respect copyright.PENANAIykD5dHe1i
outcome that can come from it seemed to echo in his mind, and then he gets close to433Please respect copyright.PENANAALYBLn2Hsi
Red. The two were now almost at a kissing distance and for the second time in front433Please respect copyright.PENANAi5IkCKIVQB
of the rest, they whispered to one another.433Please respect copyright.PENANAOeUYPkghek
Words clearly not meant for anyone else to hear...433Please respect copyright.PENANAykGsJXLvdp
“Very well...” Dhanel Marce finally, reluctantly, accepted - quite the shock to433Please respect copyright.PENANALoHgrsUCL6
everyone here and to none more so than the Elvorides...433Please respect copyright.PENANAvcGLbmmkhb
“What? No...” she let out...
