“Be silent. I would suggest you think very carefully about your next phrase for463Please respect copyright.PENANAuAeq9UWlog
I might not allow you to even finish it.”463Please respect copyright.PENANAXkkowSNHlE
Celle drew her weapon, and for the first time since this mission began, someone was463Please respect copyright.PENANA6AmYWPj2BI
taking an aggressive stance. Dhanel Marce however, remained silent the whole time, as463Please respect copyright.PENANAr49DJpbBUM
he kept on watching from outside the circle. He was likely pondering about more than463Please respect copyright.PENANA3jQlasvIUp
just this scene happening in front of him.463Please respect copyright.PENANAMMMPjZS1Pt
“Come then, speak one more word.” she smiled “Please.”463Please respect copyright.PENANA29JbRymTow
Red never moved, even though he was the target of such a threat; perhaps he463Please respect copyright.PENANAFkLHxYgUcb
was not aware of the magnitude of the opponent in front of him, or perhaps he was463Please respect copyright.PENANApp6rDXquEZ
confident in his own abilities. Or maybe he just knew his old friend too well, and was463Please respect copyright.PENANAty6Gp4BKZd
certain that he would never lose control of this situation. Red kept his feet rested and463Please respect copyright.PENANASnJPTBlEve
a calm head, perhaps more so than any other present here. The others however, seemed463Please respect copyright.PENANAbco45hboge
agitated for they knew Celle for quite a while and how she could be. All apart from463Please respect copyright.PENANA0ol5HZK6yn
the leader of this party, who so far had been completely absent despite how much the463Please respect copyright.PENANAzEgTPmkh9J
tensions were rising...463Please respect copyright.PENANARlKZubuzIh
“I just did.” said Red as Celle’s eyes grew more furious “And I will do so again.463Please respect copyright.PENANAHTxGulkT5C
Pay close attention now, as I resume my questions knowing you will do nothing.”463Please respect copyright.PENANAdDtV7CQU1w
“Red you are not helping,” said Deena but Red would continue freely...463Please respect copyright.PENANAAM3XdtSTzx
“Marce, isn’t it time for you to put this puppet back on her tight leash?”463Please respect copyright.PENANA7yDhJKdIo2
Celle did not even have the time to raise her weapon properly before Dhanel Marce463Please respect copyright.PENANAmfP4KLlvF1
finally stepped in to bring an end to this situation. “Celle that’s enough,” he said very463Please respect copyright.PENANAjeqnMlIEUm
calmly, very confident in both his authority, as well as in the discipline of those under463Please respect copyright.PENANAyp5fE0LKBk
him.463Please respect copyright.PENANAtYIGwtGRRa
She did, as always, as she was told, and once her weapon was sheathed on her back,463Please respect copyright.PENANAJxPp6I13EV
she took a few steps away. Infuriated but always disciplined.463Please respect copyright.PENANANaJwx96tZ5
“Nothing but a puppet,” Red added gaining in this way one last look of the Elvorides463Please respect copyright.PENANAWTOu5mHVTh
woman, as this short but somewhat intense introduction, finally came to a close.463Please respect copyright.PENANAgzuBe8S8bv
“That’s enough out of you as well.” Dhanel Marce pointed at him, he was serious463Please respect copyright.PENANAIJg5TPX4jU
and after a few more circling steps he would then continue...463Please respect copyright.PENANAXlpJbeGYSH
“Am I to assume then Red, that you are here now for the same old reason? Am I to463Please respect copyright.PENANAQzNyURFS97
assume you just can’t let it go?” the captain continues “I will also assume then, that you463Please respect copyright.PENANAX0lFZYUUlT
haven’t forgotten our history and conduct, of how we operate and are thus fully aware463Please respect copyright.PENANAotd4cbQQuc
of what a predicament this is. Now I know both Deena and Rhim over there would463Please respect copyright.PENANA9DpesvZzck
have no problem in us simply ignoring you and continuing with our mission. Lorian,463Please respect copyright.PENANAWhO34pFIXR
well, he is like me, he is indifferent and whatever I end up deciding is fine by him.463Please respect copyright.PENANAyxAftSoyW9
But Celle, she likes being somewhat of a stiff and as such, she seems not too comfortable463Please respect copyright.PENANAFAzPYdThpc
in ignoring you. So, what to do Red? What to do?”463Please respect copyright.PENANAtxFYyT6sRd
The leader of this outfit keeps asking himself as if waiting for an answer, a solution463Please respect copyright.PENANARBFBYFpPZF
he already knows is coming “Red this is serious. This is the most important mission463Please respect copyright.PENANAcEKdjlXlsM
ever assigned to the Hervies Hand, way more important than anything you or I have463Please respect copyright.PENANAkIS9MDvhpe
ever had to pull off in our days, and one with time growing ever scarce.”463Please respect copyright.PENANAj0HSkuHxEj
“You are going to the facility atop of that mountain, aren’t you? What else would463Please respect copyright.PENANAepRh6vTNjL
bring the five all the way here? Then you know my answer” Red said, “take me with463Please respect copyright.PENANAJGEK8WnKVm
you…”463Please respect copyright.PENANA6DJmLPZItg
If anyone anywhere could ever say that they once saw Dhanel Marce chuckle, then463Please respect copyright.PENANAuaWDrFsrvX
this was the moment they would all be referring to.463Please respect copyright.PENANA7DmjIJoH0B
“You jest?!” Celle asked.463Please respect copyright.PENANATYH7lMocFP
“No.” Red continued as he looked in the captain’s eyes “You know all too well what463Please respect copyright.PENANAInGA7xoD3n
my reasons are.” a small pause “You also know that you owe me...” Red concluded...463Please respect copyright.PENANAMKA1kg4I8G
Silence then followed from everybody, and maybe Harigar Rhim and Deena knew463Please respect copyright.PENANA2d77BmNxge
what Red meant as they had worked together for an exceptionally long time, or maybe463Please respect copyright.PENANAj0yxNO3Vfe
it was something even before all of that. Maybe they did or maybe they didn’t.463Please respect copyright.PENANAtaScQdq5dC
Still, none around those two dared to break that moment, as even Celle’s upcoming463Please respect copyright.PENANAVI1fNFBVBt
frustration was put on a halt for the time being, for even she had curiosity towards463Please respect copyright.PENANAZHzMI51uXI
what just had been said and was hoping that more words would follow to quench it.463Please respect copyright.PENANAKMNLyedK7P
“Are you going to play that big card on me?”463Please respect copyright.PENANANSxdX9CEq9
“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 the463Please respect copyright.PENANACYHcwd9DO3
outcome that can come from it seemed to echo in his mind, and then he gets close to463Please respect copyright.PENANAxCqc1McW5p
Red. The two were now almost at a kissing distance and for the second time in front463Please respect copyright.PENANAltgQDXzVLs
of the rest, they whispered to one another.463Please respect copyright.PENANAWhRYdDVK6Q
Words clearly not meant for anyone else to hear...463Please respect copyright.PENANAwwCZIGc2y2
“Very well...” Dhanel Marce finally, reluctantly, accepted - quite the shock to463Please respect copyright.PENANA0AP2tjW3XX
everyone here and to none more so than the Elvorides...463Please respect copyright.PENANAm5gy6DOgp4
“What? No...” she let out...
