Anthony DiNozzo and Ziva David arrived outside the doors of the hotel as if it were fate. They stared at each other for a few moments, unsure of who would speak first.
"You look…nice." Tony managed as he looked her up and down.
"Is nice the best you can do?"
"Well I figured your date would have the rest covered." He peered around then smiled. "You don't have a date do you?"
She shook her head. "He got a sudden case of the flu." She rolled her eyes and slipped her purse under her arm.
"Must be going around…that's what mine got too."
The two continued their stares until Tony put his arm out nonchalantly. "Well?"
She intertwined her arm with his. "Okay, but you won't be getting a good night kiss."
The two entered and found McGee already sitting quietly beside Ducky. Tony slipped the chair out and allowed Ziva to sit down before plopping down beside McGee. "You two dating now too?"
They managed to laugh it off, but Ducky had to ask. "Too?"
Tim sighed. "Never mind."
Ducky resisted the grin fighting its way on his face. "Alright then…have any of you seen Jethro? I was hoping he would actually come this year."
Tony shrugged. "Take a miracle to get him here Ducky."
"Or a beautiful woman."
All three of them stared in his direction. "What's that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing at all. I'm just stating that that is the one thing that would bring Leroy Jethro Gibbs to an awards ceremony."
Tim nodded. "You're probably right…anyone seen Abby?"
Each of them shook their heads and turned their attention towards the stage as their very own Director took the podium. "Please let me begin by thanking each of you for being in attendance tonight…"
The next hour consisted of Tim picking at his food; Tony and Ziva flirting and Ducky staring at the entrance in anticipation.
"We conclude every year by giving special recognition to an Agent who by Agency Standards has excelled above and beyond the call of duty. An Agent who displays fine leadership; diligence and character. An Agent who gets the job done at all costs and manages to keep the integrity of this Agency in tact. Without further adieu, this years Agent of the Year award goes to Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs…" She looked up at the applause and almost dropped the award out of her hand when she saw him come through the door. The applause subsequently stopped.
Gibbs stood at the entrance, his arm intertwined with that of their very own forensic scientist. Some thought nothing of it; but one particular table's tongues were close to hitting the floor. They watched as Gibbs escorted her to the stage with him as he took the award. She stood silent as he approached the podium and looked out. No one expected a speech, and were surprised to find that wasn't the case.
"I don't get this medal thingy…without my team."
Timothy McGee, Anthony DiNozzo, and Ziva David eyes were fixed on the stage, but they still hadn't closed their mouths. After a wave of his hand Gibbs put out his arm and escorted Abby down the steps and toward their table. He moved out her chair and gently kissed her lips before sitting down. Gibbs looked around the table and pointed.
"Pick up your tongues from the floor…someone's liable to trip over 'em."
Ducky glanced over and managed a wry smile. "Congratulations Jethro."
He tossed the medal in Tony's direction and watched him barely flinch. "DiNozzo? Earth to DiNozzo…"
He slowly closed his mouth and reached to place the medal in his pocket. "Sorry boss…I'm just…"
"In shock?" Gibbs finished for him and watched as the three nodded their heads up and down slowly.
Abby had to laugh. "Oh come on guys, it's not that bad."
Ziva finally got her breath back. "I think it's wonderful."
"And I as well." Ducky added.
"So you two are…I mean you're…so like you're…" Tony looked confused and didn't try to hide that fact.
"In love." Abby smiled and watched Tim's mouth finally close.
"You alright over there Probie?" Tony asked as he examined Tim's expression.
He nodded and slid out his chair to stand up. "I need some air."
Abby started to stand up and follow; but Gibbs placed a hand on her shoulder and followed after him himself. Leaving Tony and Ziva to bombard Abby with questions.
Ziva chimed in first. "So is he a good kisser?"
Gibbs arrived directly after Tim had set his back against the concrete wall outside the hotel. McGee stood up immediately.
"What's up boss?"
Gibbs shrugged. "Just need some air too."
Tim slipped his hands into his pockets and if it hadn't been so awkward; he may have started whistling to pass the time.
"McGee I…"
"Boss I…"
Both had to smile at their simultaneous responses. McGee put his hand out in a gesture to allow Gibbs to go first.
"I would've told you but I had to…"
"Check with Abby first. Yeah I know. She's sensitive. Was the right call."
Gibbs nodded. "I take it you found the note in the folder that was meant for me?"
McGee didn't even ask how he knew and simply agreed. "Yeah. But something inside me had a feeling…"
"In your gut?" Gibbs questioned and watched at the young Agent shuffled his feet.
"Yeah, I guess so."
"Always follow your gut Tim…mine hasn't let me down yet."
McGee managed a smile. "I'm not mad boss."
"Never said you were."
"I know, but my guts telling me that's what you're thinking…but don't worry. All I ever wanted for her was to be happy…and if it can't be with me…then I couldn't pick a better man than you boss."
Gibbs smiled slowly and put out his hand for Tim to take. As he did, Tim mirrored his smile. "She really cares for you Tim…it's be important for you to share that with her."
"I will."
Abby was relieved to see Gibbs and Tim return and watched McGee send her over a smile. She sighed and reached for Gibbs hand under the table.
"So what do they know?" Gibbs asked quickly as he sat down.
Tony put his hand up to silence Abby and grinned. "The question is…what don't we know boss…you lucky devil you…" He playfully punched at Gibbs chin and laughed a bit.
Gibbs stared back at Abby and she pouted. "Don't be mad, I didn't tell them everything…"
"What? What else is there?" Tony asked as Ziva leaned onto his shoulder to hear the response.
"You didn't tell them about…no…the bull pen?" He tried to whisper but Tony just about fell out of his chair leaning in.
"The bull pen?" Tony questioned. "What happened in the bull pen?"
It was as if a light when on in Tony's head and this time he literally fell out of his chair, taking Ziva along with him onto the floor. Laughter erupted soon after.
"Will you two get a room?" Ducky added as he watched the two slowly get up.
It was then Gibbs and Abby stood up and motioned towards the door. Tim and Ducky followed suit and headed out; leaving Tony and Ziva alone at the table in their laughing fit.
"Shall we get a room?"
Tony shook his head. "Who needs a room? When you got the bull pen…"
AN: Well. There you have it. Sure I mixed a little TIVA in there…but hey, I couldn't resist. Please let me know your thoughts overall. And thank you so much for taking the time to read! Hope you've enjoyed it as much as I have bringing it to you.

SHEPHERDSVILLE -- It was over 30 years ago when a small group of individuals had a dream of starting a YMCA branch in Bullitt County.
Once all the parts came together, the branch was formed.
Rose Haley remembers the next step was to find someone to lead an agency with no facilities, a small office and a budget of $25,000.
They would find June Crenshaw, who was working in Lexington after graduating from Eastern Kentucky University.
"We took a chance on her," said Haley. "And she took a chance on us."
MOUNT WASHINGTON — After braving renovations for 16 months, Mount Washington Elementary School is ready to show off what they're made of.
According to Principal Terri Lewis, one of the largest changes visitors will see is the enclosed floor plan.
SHEPHERDSVILLE—A big move will bring big advances for local pregnant women. For four and a half years, A New Hope Pregnancy Center has worked diligently out of a formerly foreclosed house to bring pregnancy resources to those who asked for it. This spring, the organization will move to a spot in the Cedar Grove Center off Cedar Grove Road in Shepherdsville.
HEBRON ESTATES - Bullitt County Public Schools students received an opportunity to branch out and come out of their shells thanks to a new STEM challenge at the 2017 District Science Fair.
The district hosted its first district-wide STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) challenge at Hebron Middle School for teams of students from BCPS middle and high schools.
The Shepherdsville Santa program assisted over 114 families during the holiday season.
Volunteers helped to prepare the food baskets. And local businesses assisted with making sure there were funds to provide the items to place in the food and toy baskets.
A car show each fall is a major fund-raiser for the giveaway.
This is the fifth year for Shepherdsville Santa.
The district annual Red Ribbon/Safe Schools awards ceremony recognized dozens of students who drew posters, wrote essays or created videos depicting their stance against harmful substances, peer pressure and bullying.
Here is a complete list of school level winners and categories. Each youth earned a Certificate of Recognition.
A mannequin is being used in high school Early Lifespan Development (ELD) courses as a teaching tool to demonstrate the devastating effects of shaken baby syndrome, or abusive head trauma.
The $950 Real Care Shaken Baby Simulator Program with doll and curriculum was funded by the Bullitt County Foundation for Excellence in Public Education. The doll is equipped with sensors that signal when trauma is inflicted.
North Bullitt High School teacher April Roberts wrote the proposal and has used the simulator in her class.
The Bullitt County Woman's Club, which is the oldest civic club in the county, recently made donations to two local organizations.
Tammy Ott accepted a check for $1,437.50 for the renovation of Bowman's Valley School. This doubles the club's organization of the previous year.
The club presented CASA of Bullitt County a check for $879.50. These funds were proceeds from the annual bake/talent auction held by the organization.
Both organizations are very grateful for the continued support from the Woman's Club.
SHEPHERDSVILLE — While most college students are planning spring break trips or knee-deep in textbooks, Shepherdsville native Callie Wells has taken a slightly different route.
With the help of the Kentucky Humane Society, Wells founded Callie's Cats last July, an organization dedicated to rescuing cats and kittens from kill shelters and the wild, nurturing them to health and provided necessary care until a forever home is found.
The Shepherdsville Fire Department hosted Breakfast with Santa. It has become annual event as children and their families can meet Santa and enjoy a nice meal.

The 6' 2", 188 pound quarterback has now been offered by Duke, Mississippi State, and Oklahoma State.
Lawrence will take in a Jr Day visit this weekend to one of the schools who is also showing interest.
"Cameron is going to Ole Miss this weekend for Jr Day, added Mr. Larwence."
Lawrence had previously indicated to Scout.com that he planned to end his recruiting process early.
"I am not exactly sure when I will make a decision, but I would like to have it done before the summer," said Cameron. "I don't have to have it done by then, but that's kind of what I am thinking about right now."
The reasoning was simple. Lawrence will graduate high school a semester early so he can enroll at his new school in January, so he will be eligible to participate in 2009's Spring Practice.

I think you may be placing your own negative view of me ahead of the situation. I actually tried to avoid that conversation when it was initially posted, which you can note by looking back. Focus on it by others doesn't mean my responding to it should be also taken negatively.<quoted text>
Although you and I may agree on that one example of someone finding out that they are here unlawfully, doing the right thing by going to the authorities, your continued remarks lead me to believe you truly believe that illegals should be allowed exception to our laws or procedures.
Just your last posting regarding the concept that England and other nations thought the people coming here were criminals is very telling. Personally, I couldn't care less what the people in England or any other nation thinks about Americans, and they would do better to focus on their own countries and problems.
Your absurd statement that our laws advocate "gunning down" people is just another example of the ridiculous viewpoint you continue to hold regarding our laws.
I have no belief that people should be allowed exemption purely on the fact that they are illegal. In fact, I would vote against it if such a poll came to bare; However, people's circumstances should be evaluated and their corresponding action against or for a current ruling should be taken into consideration IMO.
If it is ruled that those minors should be exiled and banned forever, then it doesn't make it right and those individuals should still be listened to if they manage to return.
This includes people that come who are not minors.
It will most likely be found in most cases, that their reasons are not just and merit further punishment.
However, the law possibly being in error should never be ignored;
we should consider the choices of peoples as we remember that our forefathers founded America on this principle.

About this listing
This pretty cottage is everything you could want for a relaxing break in friendly Co Wexford. An ideal base for touring the Sunny South East.
The space
Kirby's is a traditional Irish stone-built cottage set in green, tree-lined pastures in the South East of Ireland. It is one of three cottages in the grounds of 300 year old Fruit Hill House where Susan and Richard live with their family, and are on hand to help and advise about things to do and see in the area. Wexford, Waterford and Kilkenny are all within easy driving distance, as are the 14 sandy and unspoiled beaches of the Hook peninsula. The cottage is bright and airy, fully equipped to a high standard, and decorated with stylish simplicity.
Accommodation consists of one double bedroom with a 5 ft king size bed, and a pretty twin room; shower room; kitchen/living room.
Wifi signal available from the greenhouse. Electric storgage heaters, an open fire and well-stocked book shelves together with tv and dvd make for cosy evenings at any time of year.
Nearby is the award-winning restaurant, Aldridge Lodge, and there are shops and pubs a couple of miles away in Campile village. Nearest town is New Ross with its historic ship, the Dunbrody, the Ros tapestry, and from 2013 a fantastic new public swimming pool.
JF Kennedy Arboretum is a lovely park for a stroll with magnificent trees and views, and the Hook Lighthouse, Europe's oldest, is well worth a visit.
This is a welcoming place to stay, and a friendly and interesting part of the world to explore.
Please note that prices quoted per week/month are for the low season. Rates vary, but are always competitive. Please ask for a quote and see.
Guest access
Guests are free to wander through the grounds, bearing in mind that it is a working farm, and children should be accompanied by an adult.
Interaction with guests
The owners are present on site - a short walk through the garden.
The neighborhood
Wexford has got to be the friendliest County in Ireland.
Getting around
Public transport is of very little use. Fruit Hill, while not remote, is off the beaten track.
Other things to note
If you have any special requirements, disabilities, phobias or allergies, it's always a good idea to check with the property owner before making a reservation.
Basic good manners will cover the house rules.
Cancel up to 5 days before your trip and get a full refund, including service fees.

I live in a big old house which was a ruin when we moved here in 1995 - with trees growing in it. We have a family of six, mostly teenagers, so we can cope with just about anything. It is lovely to share this place with people, and we have enjoyed meeting visitors from all over the world in our 12 years in the accommodation business. I look forward to meeting you. Susan

Castelli Body Paint 2.0 Women's Bib Shorts
If Castelli's Body Paint 2. 0 Women's Bib Shorts feel like they were made for pros, it's because they were. Originally developed for, and exhaustively tested by, the Garmin Cervelo team, the Body Paint is a sleek, form fitting, and moisture wicking piece of kit, comfortable enough to wear for day long rides and fast enough to take onto the race course. To eliminate chafing, Castelli cut the shorts from a single piece of fabric, eliminating the possibility of chafing seams. Breathable, wicking fabric is also finished with invisible dimples, which reduce drag think of dimpled golf balls, and has a wide leg gripper for a sleek aero fit that won't grab any air. Just as importantly, the seriously snug fit supports your muscles to reduce road vibrations, which lead to fatigue. The bibs themselves, which Castelli calls Giro2, are also made of a single strip of stretchy, non binding mesh that won't dig in or cause sweat to build up. Even more important, though, is the Progetto X2 chamois, a women's specific insert with a perforated foam layer to allow air movement and increase cooling and evaporation. The surface of the Progetto X2 is made from a seamless bacteriostatic fabric that prevents the growth of odor causing bacteria, and the padding is a combination of multi density foam and viscous inserts to take pressure off of sensitive areas.

Sparx: Twinges
As I sulked in my corner, immersed in a dark vat of self-pity, something twinged at my senses. I straightened up, trying to locate the source of the twinging so as to hunt it down and get rid of it.
Much to my dismay however, I found two.
One was from somewhere off in the distance, and it was the larger of the two. There was more power involved and something big was definately going on.
The latter and smaller of the two disturbances was coming from much closer. From the bottom floor of the Hotel. It was small and probably fairly placid, but it was a disturbance none the less. I got up and started to make my way towards it, tail whipping angrily around like a crazed snake.
Damn these irritating magical disturbances! Why can't they just bog off and annoy someone else. I.E. NOT ME!
I decided to deal with the one downstairs first. Not only was it the smaller and less volatile of the two, but dealing with it would allow me to get a closer view of the second.
It would also save me another tiring run into the woods. Call me lazy, but I'd had enough physical activity for one day.
I reached the room where the disturbance was coming from, ready to brain whatever it was that was annoying me, when I stopped dead. The shadow-being and the soul-eater were standing over an unconscious figure on the floor. I slipped up behind them and prodded the thing cautiously with my tail. It moaned and I recognised it for what it was. I blinked confusedly and looked at the others.
"Could someone please tell me what is going on? And why is there an elf on the floor in here?"

What towel do you use for wiping off tent condensation and other gear pieces?
I use Lightload towels. They are cheap as heck and amazingly light weight, but they don't absorb a whole lot of water. They can't fully dry off a tent, although wiping will help the tent "air dry" the rest of the way faster.
I'm curious what folks deem to be the "optimal" balance between drying effectiveness vs. super light weight.Apr 28, 2010 at 11:44 am #1603190

I use a piece of a Sham Wow about six inches per side that I cut from a sample my wife got in the mail. It sucks up the moisure very effectively and wrings out very well.

I wonder about their care instructions "1. Machine washable under delicate and keep dry when possible"
I use my towel (holey car shammy from walmart) as my sweat grabber in the back of my pack. It weighs about 1.3oz. It's about 14"x14". I thought it was 2oz (but I weighed it).
So it stays constant wet because of my sweat. It also dries off fast during a break. My back gives it a lot of abuse.
I do use it to dry my self off after a shower; and I do wipe condensation off my tent with it. However, since I switched to the zpack hexamid, I stopped getting condensation. That cuben fiber design is interesting.
Anyway, your lightweight towel find sounds interesting. I also see them at walmart. Since it appears lighter than my towel, I'll have to do some testing :).

I use a MSR PackTowl UltraLite Large Towel. It weighs 1.8 oz and measures 36" x 20" It's very absorbent and wrings out easily. It also has a little loop on one corner that closes with a snap which makes it easy to hang outside my pack for easy drying.Apr 28, 2010 at 12:16 pm #1603208

@mariposaLocale: Outside
After years trying various synthetic, mini-packtowels, and realizing they are terrible at absorbing water, I went back to using a basic cotton handkerchief.
My ultra-thin cotton hanky is a better towel (absorbs water better) than the synthetic towels, but here's the kicker: It also weighs much less and dries faster! (It probably dries faster because it's extremely thin.)
It's the only instance where I will take cotton into the backcountry.Apr 28, 2010 at 1:30 pm #1603241

Handi-Wipes, bought at the grocery store. Amazingly absorbent and far faster-drying than a packtowel. 0.2 ounces each, so I can take several if I want. I usually take one as a towel, a half-sheet as a washrag and two in my dog's pack to de-mud the dog if needed and and to wipe moisture off the tent. Yes, they do have to be tossed after 6-7 trips, but they're cheap! I once tried the MSR UL PackTowl; it wasn't very absorbent and, on a damp night, never dried out at all.Apr 28, 2010 at 1:55 pm #1603252

I just ran across this site yesterday. Looks to be a very similar product to the LightLoad towels. Biodegradable too.
I have never used either product and cannot comment on them. Just thought it was one of those "Why didn't I think of that?" products.Apr 28, 2010 at 5:34 pm #1603317

I take two thin cheap white terry cloth washcloths. I use one as a washcloth and the other for drying. It's not the same as a big dry warm fluffy bath towel of course, but it's good enough.Apr 29, 2010 at 6:07 am #1603487

A kitchen wipe. Super cheap, super light, just the right size and they perform just as well if not better than typical backpacking towels: absorb plenty, dry fast. I use one as regular towel as well as for tent condensation or whatever else and each lasts a couple seasons aprox.Apr 29, 2010 at 6:33 am #1603495

A bandana can do the job as well as two dozen others.
I do keep a small MSR towel/washcloth in my hygiene kit. This is the small silkier finish model and makes a better washcloth than a towel, but it is okay if wrung out– more of a squeegee action.
I got a couple large MSR pack towels at a garage sale last year for 50 cents each, making it less painful to cut them into smaller pieces :) These are the thick felt-like ones and absorb the most water. Get a big one and split it with several others, or have a lot of spares.
Handy Wipes are pretty good, light, cheap, and available at the local grocery store. They can be cut down as well and can do most of the things a bandana can. Hmmmm, never tried one for a coarse water filter….. have to try that.
The only time I feel the need for a real towel is after swimming– full immersion. And I'm not one for full dunking in 35F glacier-fed mountain lakes unless it is 90F out, and then I don't need a towel. For a stand-up "sponge bath" from my cut-off milk jug bucket, I really don't need much more than a small cloth to get that "squeegee" action to get most of the already thin film of water off.Apr 29, 2010 at 7:38 am #1603507

I cut a small MSR PackTowl Ultralite in half and then snipped off the snap in the corner. It comes in at just under .2oz now, and works beautifully to wipe down my tarptent, and also me after a quick rinse! After using it for my LT thru hike I don't see any reason I'd want a bigger one.

The Ties That Bind
An inevitable consequence of life is that people drift apart. Relationships become strained and bonds are broken as easily as they were once forged. Brotherhoods – once as solid as thousand year old rock formations – become weathered and are gradually reduced to dust in the wind by trial and tribulation.
We are bound by ties of friendship and family. Tragically, these ties are often more fragile than we would like to believe. Conversely, the collective value of relationships -- both past, and present – is measured not by the current state of the relationship but rather, by the tangible and intangible benefits that each party receives as a result of their participation. Personal growth – through life experience – is the benchmark of a successful relationship.
It is a wildly held belief that people gain a greater quantity of knowledge from mistakes as opposed to successes. We are flawed therefore, we often are not able to be as forgiving as we would like. Correspondingly, because we are imperfect many of our relationships are bound to fail. Forgiveness of the errors of our past then, is precious, because it outlines the capacity to advance beyond convention and embrace the very idealistic idea of the avant-garde. Indeed, to quote Alexander Pope, "to err is human, to forgive is divine." Embracing the ties that have been severed then becomes paramount in our perpetual quest for self-actualization.

Silver Star - A Slave Once MoreMature
The man traversed the lush fields of an unknown place. In truth, he was lost. Never had he seen this shade of tree or shape of leaf. Never had he experienced fields like these. Long lush grass cloaked them beautifully, with full trees dotting the area like added droplets of sugar in a cup of tea. Such a gorgeous place this was. Why, the man thought it was the most extravagant place he had ever visited.
There was one problem with it, though. There was always something wrong in any place the man traveled. It was something unavoidable, truly, but the man still felt responsible. Well, why wouldn't he?
The problem with this world was evil, and the man knew himself to be part of that evil.
The man pulled a knife from his tattered breeches. He needed to pay a price. Thanks to the ring, he could not kill himself or do any damage that would cripple or endanger himself, but a cut here and there was just fine. He slid the knife over his grimy arm, letting the blood flow free. Not too much, of course, but enough to feel the pain. Yes, such torment.
A noise drew the man from his mind. It came from further down in the fields, on a road now visible to the eye. Curses! The man had gotten lost to AVOID human interaction, not to find it! He had to hide! Now! But where? The man searched frantically, only to decide on a slender tree. It would have to do. The way the hill was angled, the grass would not work. In fact, that would be worse. The tree was the best bet, and the closest.
The sounds grew closer and the man made himself as small as possible behind the tree. Was this man going to see him? He looked to his ring, which was seated on his right hand. For now.
Voices came with the wind. It took the man a moment, but he finally started to understand them a little.
"...bothers me about that Dracarys girl," said a stern voice. It sounded in command and emotionless. Probably a Wise Elder of this land, then.
"Sir?" The typical guard or second-in-command.
"She seems to be hiding something. The way she was at the dining table the other day... It was almost as if she were playing the part of an actor."
"Shall I have her... dealt with, sir?"
"I wish. It is too early. We need to..." The words trailed off, as if forgotten. Had the Wise Elder forgotten his words? The man would have laughed, had he not been trying not to make a sound.
'Why do this, O Great Elder?' the man thought, then took a deep breath and walked out from behind the tree. Maybe this one wouldn't be so bad.
What awaited him was a heavily armored guard with an familiar insignia on his tabard. Was that a lion? The man had worked for a noble with a lion crest before. Before he could think on it, the man was forced to focus on something else. The armored guard had a spear pointed at the man. Maybe he would kill him before he could speak?
"Who are you!" The armored guard demanded.
The man bowed deeply, with two fingers touching the end of his twin parallel scars on his face, then sliding down the length of them. From the ear to the lower lip. The scars of service. This was tradition for a wretch such as this man. "I am to be called Silver Star."
The guard gave an odd look, then called to a few other guards, whom the man - now to be known as Silver Star - saw on the road just a little ways away. In the middle of the guards was a man with a harsh face and and piercing green eyes. He reminded Silver of a snake. Maybe this snake would crush him.
The other guards arrived and instructed Silver not to move or speak. Little did they know, they had nothing to worry about. The rules of a Bound were strict. Silver was to obey and speak of his service at the first opportune moment. This, obviously, was not now. The other guard left to speak with the green eyed noble, which was probably the source of the voice earlier. Silver was too far away to tell.
Silver ignored the men and watched his surroundings. He always loved the wilderness, but there was always a problem. Silver sighed. No use in dreaming about suicide when it was impossible to commit knowingly. Still, it was a small comfort.
"You are Silver Star?"
Silver looked and realized that the noble was now upon him. He nearly jumped. How was the man so quiet? Silver ALWAYS was aware of his surroundings. That meant... this was someone very dangerous. Truly a snake. The only question was did this snake bite?
"Yes, I am a Bound," Silver said, starting to pull off his ring. The Noble grabbed his hand and pulled the ring off himself. Was he mad? Sure, Silver was bound to the rules to not attack unless ordered by the one holding his ring, but to take something from a potentially deadly assassin?
"I know what you are," the noble said in a silent rage, "and I also know WHO you are." He motioned his guards to step down and slipped on the Binding Ring. He knew? Who was this man? The noble stepped back and examined the ring on his finger. It was an odd design, with skulls and daggers worked into the silver band shape. There was also runes on it. No one could read them but the Wise Elders, though.
"My brother had you and threw you away," the noble said slowly, "But I will make as much use of you as I can." A small smile hit the noble's face. "I am Apophis Vyper, right hand of King Faramond III. You will answer to me and to me alone, understood?"
Silver, his face calm despite his raging sadness on the inside, put two fingers on the scar covering the left side of his face and trailed from his ear to his lip once more. It was the sign of servitude. The sign that he had to make to any he called master. Also, the sign that forced his dark hands to kill...
"Kill my guards," Master commanded Silver. There was no hesitation or regret in his voice. Silver understood. This was a test. It was always like this. Everytime he was forces to serve a noble or Wise Elder, they commanded him to show his abilities. The last kill, for some reason, always haunted him. The blue eyes never blamed him... never.
"Sir? What are you-"
Silver pulled his knife from the corpse of the nearest guard. Those words would be lost forever. Useless words, maybe, but a man's words nonetheless. Such a saddening thing, yet nothing to be done about it.
"You little...!"
The spear of the dead guard impaled the next one by Silver's command. The man gurgled blood and fell as SIlver plunged his knife into the next, and last, guard present. It went in the neck, as usual. When confronted with armored enemies, the neck was the easiest place to stab. So easy....
So dead.
Silver looked to the scene around him with disgust. It was atrocious. No man should experience death at the hands of another. It should be the Great Elder who calls the humans home, not each other. Such a mess. Blood was already soaking this beautiful place.
And it was Silver's doing.
"Come," Vyper said, signaling his other guards. They didn't seem surprised. Such a sad group of humans.
Vyper mounted a white horse and Silver was given one of the now-dead guards. The other two horses were simply freed. Silver hoped they stayed free.
"Now," Vyper said, looking at SIlver's messy pitch black hair, "We need you to disguise yourself as a servant." Silver pushed his hair back. What was it this noble wanted of him. Murder, torture, or setting up another massacre? Vyper looked at his face and seemingly read his mind. "Do not worry, you will not be killing another king. You will simply be watching your last victim's daughter..."
'Great Elder help me.'
