Till the End

Taliset looked over at Jillian. "Well if he speaks out against me like that again then he'll be food for my dragon."

Jillian sighed, but smiled sweetly. She spoke softly, as if she were speaking to a child she who wouldnt go to sleep; but was tiered and just needed to be lulled. "Calm... He will behave... Just be calm."

Taliset stood up and waited a moment to make sure he was balanced. He then looked down at her. "I'm not some child you can talk down to. and you must remember who is in charge here. So speak tp me with respect"

Jillian nodded. "You're right, now please My Lord will you sit?" She was just trying not to get him angry. If he wasnt mad then he wouldnt hurt Hope. She didnt care what he did to her, she only cared for her child's safety.

Taliset sat back down. "Thats more like it, accpet me as your new master and soon thigns we be working out fine"

Jillian smiled and nodded. "Very well. I will accept." Hope shook her head and closed her eyes, thinking that her mother was a fool.

taliset then looked over to Hope. "What about you little girl?"

Hope didnt move or look at him. "I will not serve a false king." Jillian flinched but she was still smiling.

Taliset patted the side of his dragon. "Mirku land" the dragon screeched and began to fly lower and lower untill it found a nice size clearing to land in a nearby forest. "Allright Hope get off the dragon" he said as he jumped down.

Hope frowned and watched him. "Why?" Jillian slid off the dragon and took a step towards Taliset. "She didnt mean it. Let's just get back on and I'll have a word with her. Children are a bit grumpy at this age, right? So why dont you just let me handle her and she'll be kissing your hand in no time... ok?"

Taliset shook his head. "No she must be dsiciplined when she speaks aginst her master. now get down Hope. And Saix if you even think about it" the sword flew out of the sheathe and floated by Saix.

Hope slid off and slowly walked over to Taliset, Jillian sadly watching.

Taliset looked down at her. "Now I want you to repeat what you said to me?" he clenched his fists

Hope clenched her fists and spoke through clenched teeth. "I WILL NOT SERVE A FALSE KING!" Jillian gasped and covered her eyes. "Oh god Hope." She fell to her knees and started to cry.

Taliset's facial expression turned into an angry scowl, And he drew back his fist and struck her in the face hard. As soon as he did he grabbed her hair with his other hand and began repatadly punching her in her stomach, chest and face before throwing her to the ground hard.

Hope let out only one scream before the wind was knocked out of her. When he tossed her to the ground she held her stomach and struggled to draw in a breath.

taliset looked down at her and smiled. "Now what do you have to say?"

She raised her head and whispered two words to him. "False... King.." Jillian shook her head and tried to rush to Hope's side. "Please Hope stop!"

Taliset shook his head and pulled outa dagger he then grapped her by the throat and lifted her up. He then thrust his dagger down into her shoulder. He the twisting th blade while it was in before pulling it out and headbutting her in the nose. "I ask you again?"

B, barely even phased by the long run, started to slow greatly as he approached a group of bandits, each eying him as their next kill. They particularly eyed his armor, seeing as it was an unknown kind, and as far as they knew, the only suit in the entire country. The leader of the group approached him slowly as two others crouched in the branches of trees on the sides of the road. "That's some fancy armor you have there.. I'll make a dead. You give us the armor and all your belongings, and we might let you go. Might." B thought for a moment and grinned, raising his rifle and firing a slug into the head of the leader.
