“Be silent. I would suggest you think very carefully about your next phrase for419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKjg09ZoRFr
I might not allow you to even finish it.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5vHcdGmLo
Celle drew her weapon, and for the first time since this mission began, someone was419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vB9Vn75PG
taking an aggressive stance. Dhanel Marce however, remained silent the whole time, as419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYYk1qqz4m
he kept on watching from outside the circle. He was likely pondering about more than419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63PzR3DGoU
just this scene happening in front of him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1EAJabVrR
“Come then, speak one more word.” she smiled “Please.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOWps1heDo
Red never moved, even though he was the target of such a threat; perhaps he419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTC29JK99xp
was not aware of the magnitude of the opponent in front of him, or perhaps he was419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDF1hYBloly
confident in his own abilities. Or maybe he just knew his old friend too well, and was419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjeLhnR6x9
certain that he would never lose control of this situation. Red kept his feet rested and419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2RzLlAgs2q
a calm head, perhaps more so than any other present here. The others however, seemed419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNkMHecVy3
agitated for they knew Celle for quite a while and how she could be. All apart from419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJbr5xbylW
the leader of this party, who so far had been completely absent despite how much the419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8g0XI7CgV
tensions were rising...419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTgb2ccS6X
“I just did.” said Red as Celle’s eyes grew more furious “And I will do so again.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0aqkHKh5H
Pay close attention now, as I resume my questions knowing you will do nothing.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFfytZFGvvd
“Red you are not helping,” said Deena but Red would continue freely...419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3KuQwKrPh
“Marce, isn’t it time for you to put this puppet back on her tight leash?”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvIEMhuUwW
Celle did not even have the time to raise her weapon properly before Dhanel Marce419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJQySjCioP
finally stepped in to bring an end to this situation. “Celle that’s enough,” he said very419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKiyDi1fDl0
calmly, very confident in both his authority, as well as in the discipline of those under419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpa3fLY7S3
him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oHjd1wX0n
She did, as always, as she was told, and once her weapon was sheathed on her back,419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyfJMKscOL
she took a few steps away. Infuriated but always disciplined.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzEYXDlx44J
“Nothing but a puppet,” Red added gaining in this way one last look of the Elvorides419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUH2YR3lyfo
woman, as this short but somewhat intense introduction, finally came to a close.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2UofpHlnT
“That’s enough out of you as well.” Dhanel Marce pointed at him, he was serious419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3d7YL9XeU
and after a few more circling steps he would then continue...419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTS3zUYgYVr
“Am I to assume then Red, that you are here now for the same old reason? Am I to419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8iL0hsFCk
assume you just can’t let it go?” the captain continues “I will also assume then, that you419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX3IW3gZfKj
haven’t forgotten our history and conduct, of how we operate and are thus fully aware419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRt90W6QXc
of what a predicament this is. Now I know both Deena and Rhim over there would419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ312GCgC8Cb
have no problem in us simply ignoring you and continuing with our mission. Lorian,419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKOQvR825r8
well, he is like me, he is indifferent and whatever I end up deciding is fine by him.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4bkq3CQQP
But Celle, she likes being somewhat of a stiff and as such, she seems not too comfortable419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH7Bki8pgeu
in ignoring you. So, what to do Red? What to do?”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAHOppV4F5
The leader of this outfit keeps asking himself as if waiting for an answer, a solution419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSn0M990ER5
he already knows is coming “Red this is serious. This is the most important mission419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlnjC4BO1C
ever assigned to the Hervies Hand, way more important than anything you or I have419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsMO6fSBq6X
ever had to pull off in our days, and one with time growing ever scarce.”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CWY1RHWm3
“You are going to the facility atop of that mountain, aren’t you? What else would419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1X5rzpD7y9
bring the five all the way here? Then you know my answer” Red said, “take me with419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQb2diR4daH
you…”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVAusj47bv
If anyone anywhere could ever say that they once saw Dhanel Marce chuckle, then419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDVCJiutnk
this was the moment they would all be referring to.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIoidt1auSY
“You jest?!” Celle asked.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWO9fQsbczf
“No.” Red continued as he looked in the captain’s eyes “You know all too well what419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg5ncRIxhOK
my reasons are.” a small pause “You also know that you owe me...” Red concluded...419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI50X2jBfKN
Silence then followed from everybody, and maybe Harigar Rhim and Deena knew419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTQJUygX2c
what Red meant as they had worked together for an exceptionally long time, or maybe419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtGO5aXhPc
it was something even before all of that. Maybe they did or maybe they didn’t.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaFSDn5QIa
Still, none around those two dared to break that moment, as even Celle’s upcoming419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOypykKZhtr
frustration was put on a halt for the time being, for even she had curiosity towards419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTBsHmaPSX
what just had been said and was hoping that more words would follow to quench it.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLiI2sl3Yv
“Are you going to play that big card on me?”419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqzmk2Lo7w
“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 the419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8OpxXZtlI
outcome that can come from it seemed to echo in his mind, and then he gets close to419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbe1nKhFBEz
Red. The two were now almost at a kissing distance and for the second time in front419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSBmyHX7El
of the rest, they whispered to one another.419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhASHFq9Buf
Words clearly not meant for anyone else to hear...419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNv3t727El
“Very well...” Dhanel Marce finally, reluctantly, accepted - quite the shock to419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA5naGDkut
everyone here and to none more so than the Elvorides...419Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLhkU3C25h
“What? No...” she let out...
