"Well.. I noticed by my sharp mind, you failed killing eragon" he said and smiled.. "I am here to build a future, but also to hunt my past and live the present" he looked seriously at her to make sure she took him serious about building a life.. He did not wish to tell her he hunted keepers of the light, angels and those.
[Just put these two posts together, the last one at the previous page and this post.]
Of cause i want to know what happened before that! what was your family like? where did you grow up? Why do you have blue hair? vital questions that need to be answered.
**Alth looked around the room and sighed.**
Me and my cousin, Esnarh, are the two sole remaining family members of the blood-line Dmerage. everyone else was slaughtered by spys while they slept. we were only children, me and Esnarh, so we were able to leave the city without attracting too much attention. we survived on game and wild food and each day was a struggle. Esnarh was fortuate enough to grow feathered wings and would fly to nearby towns and steal food so we could survive. I owe him so much. he set off traveling a few years ago and i havent heard from him since. but i know hes ok. i started working odd jobs for the rich or greedy. stealing, killing, ramsacking or spying. a hard life. a few weeks ago a man offered me a job, to kill a man in the GDI. there was a huge price on his head so i accepted. and...yeah...thats it. ive always been a loner. there isnt very many of our kind left, which makes me sad, but i wont let anyone take me out without a fight.
** Alth looked up at Zuke and blinked away tears.**
Im sorry. it makes me so angry...
**Alth lowered her head into her hands and silently wept.**
"I am sorry about your family.." Zuke said and watched her... "I never knew mine, so i dont feel sorrow for mine... I grew up in an deserted landscape somewhere far away, but when my life started for real I studied war arts and have dont so for many many years, untill the day war broke out.. During my life I did things not many could be proud of" he took a break.. "The hair is my natural colour" he said and smiled at her.. "You seems to have an life full of events.." he said and walked up to her, he whiped the tears from her face with his arm and afterwards he discovered it was quite dirty.. "Oh... sorry" he said and watched her face as it became quite dirty from his arm..
**Alth looked at him, shocked.**
Not tired?? it looks like youve walked for days, you just had a fight with another man and then a disagreement with.. i dont know what! and your not tired!? i wish i had your stamina... well then go wash up so i can see where the cuts are. And stop grinning at me like you know something i dont!
**She grinned and gave him a playful push**
Its un-nerving!
"I dont get easy tired, and to the record, yes I have walked for days" He looked seriously at her "Well alright then, I go and wash up" Zuke said and smiled.. He walked up and threw a bucket of water over him.. or maybe 4-5 buckets to make sure the dirt flew of.. He was all wet.. "How great.. never thought of that" He said to himself as he became litteraly hot and dry. "I love my powers.. so handy sometimes" he said as he cooled down again.
**Alth raised an arched eyebrow**
Ive never seen that before. Were you born with it?
**She pulled out her trusty leather bag, placed it in the palm of her hand and looked at Zukes body.**
You know this would be a lot easyer if you had the least amount of clothes on...so i can see the cuts, of cause.
**She smiled up at Zuke.**
it looks like we will be here for a while. did you wana go somewhere more comfortable and quiet?
"Yes. But most of my powers have grew during my time in prison" He said and smiled at her... "The least amount of clothes? I am only wearing rags to pants and no more.." He stopped a while and looked at her for some moments.. "..." he lended towards the wall "Well I thought this was comfortable" he said and compared to the jail he had lived in. He smiled as she took care of his wounds.. "Why are you this kind to me?" he asked.
