Till the End

Taliset began to laugh.

"Last time I tried that, The little one ran away, and so did you" he then looked down at hope "This way its a real hassle to escpae and my guards can catch you. and you cant attempt on my life while i'm sleeping"

Impatiently Vlad turned around and re-entered the tavern, marching to the other man in black. "You, tell me what you know."

Saix and Renji smiled " heh there not used to being in anythig less amazing as far a sleeping place !" Renji said " well let me tell you two somthing, be lucky you were not sleeping in a dungeon being woken by screams of people being tortured. Or better yet your friends blood dumped on you and you cant wash it off !!!!" Saix's mouth dropped " dude ..." Renji sighed " tortured in a dark place and branded " He showed his arm. It was the symbol that meant death. Basically shaped like a cross.

The man in black frowned and eyed Vlad. "Information isnt cheap here."

Jillian sighed and looked up at Taliset happily. "We havent ran away for some time now.. Besides.. We dont know our way around here so we couldnt possibly run."

Taliset shook his head.

"Nah, its more fun having you down here. You're lucky i dont chain you up like the ones upstairs. And don't worry about being bored because i will come down here frequently"

Vlad scoweled angrly, but none could really tell. "Life is priceless."

Saix knocked on Jillians head " hello back door right there !" Saix laughed like a lunatic " ah i like this place " Renji raised an eye brow " you stupid f!@#" Saix pointed at Renji " Hey ! dont be that way im just joking around" Renji sighed " well i dont wanna get fed to a dragon"

Jillian sneered and took a swipe at Saix. "Dont touch me dirt bag." Hope was watching the animal in the corner. "Can that thing get free?"

The man in black sighed and leaned back in his chair. "Not if you know the right spell. Now either pay up or go talk to your friend other there."

Taliset smirked as he placed his hand on Hopes shoulder and leaned down so that he was eye levle with her. "Not on it's own, but unless you meet my needs I'll free it my self."

Pulling out his clockwork pistol, he pointed it at the man. "No spell can cure a slug in your head. What is your price?"

The man in black shook his head. "Then where will you get your information?"

Jillian sneered and backed away from him. "I said dont touch me."

Vlad sighed and looked the man square in the eyes. "Look, I'll never die of age as long as I wear this mask, and I don't need to eat or sleep. Are you really willing to die for something that I can do after enough time anyway? Besides, I don't carry money because I don't eat or sleep."

taliset reached over and grabbed Saix by the throat he then tossed him to the ground. "You're Queen said don't touch her. Do it again with my approval and you'll be sleeping in a dragons den"

Jillian shook her head and slowly stepped into the chamber. She sat down on the mat and looked around sadly. She hadnt seen that Hope was standing just out of reach of the creature. For some reason... She felt drawn to it. Her curiosity was like a cats.

The man in black sighed and pointed to Itru. "Talk to him then. I just told him everything I know."

Taliset walked over sat down next to Jillian. "The beast is fascinating isn't it"

The beast stoppe chewing on the leg and stared at Hope with it's peircing red eyes. It then began to growl and lunged at Hop with his razor sharp fans beared and claws extracted. as the chain snapped back and pulled it to the ground right in front of Hopes face its claws just out of reach.

Jillian looked up at him for a moment, trying to understand what he was getting at. Then she looked over at the monster. "Oh god HOPE!" Hope ignored her mother's words and sat down, watching the creature quietly. "I'm not gonna hurt you... I'm not afraid.. It's ok buddy."

Vlad solemnly said 'no' as he stared at the man.

The beats continued trying to break free from the chains as it snapped its jaws at her and clawed at the space right in front of Hope's face.

Taliset smiled as he began to stroke Jillian's hair backward. "I can losen the chain at anytime" he began to smile

Jillian looked at him for a moment before she turned her gaze to her daughter. "Hope get over here." Hope looked back at her mother sadly. "But mom I-." Jillian raised her voice for the first time in years at her daughter. "NOW CHILD!" Hope's mouth dropped open and she quickly scurried over to her mother's side.

The man in black sighed heavily. "You arent going to give in are you?"
