Dungeons of Parasitus

Amelia woke up to a splitting headache, she groaned quietly before sitting up. She glanced over at Edgar as she reached to the back of her head to feel a large bump. She scowled and got up, walking over to the small window. She had to stand on her tip toes to see out of it, she caught glimpses of horses and people walking by. Alos guards, which she quickly backed down from the window. She scowled again and jumped up, using her acrobatic skills to grip the wall with her feet and the bars with her hands. The weather was actually nice, the sun shining. "How ironic..." She muttered to herself.

Edgar kept his eyes closed as he faced the cell rather than the wall. He opened his eyes a crack to see her jump up. "Not bad, for a girl." he said as he pushed himself up. He placed the tip of his staff to the floor as he leaned onto it slightly, looking across to her. "I'm sure you could put those skills to good use, if you weren't such a moron." he said before he burst into a coughing fit. He held his fists to his mouth before spitting blood onto the floor. He patted his chest lightly before scowling over to her once more.

Amelia ignored him as she continued to stare out the window at a nearby exit from the city. "So close yet so far..." She muttered before jumping back down. Her landing was graceful, years of practice came in handy in times like these. She sat down in the middle of the floor and leaned her head into her hand. With the other, she drew something in the sand. Glancing at the door every so often.

Edgar's eyes narrowed across to her as he shook his head. He spun in staff in the fingers of his right hand. Moving so fast it was pretty much a blur. He stopped it suddenly in the exact position that it was before. He slowly got to his feet, wincing slightly as he clutched at his back. He snorted at her slightly as she looked to the door. "You're lucky he gave you a cell with a window girl. He usually locks you in a pitch black room and only takes you out to kill you." he said with a simple shrug before he started spinning his staff around, stopping in attacking positions.

Amelia turned and looked at him. "All the better." She said before turning back down to the dirt. She glanced down at her stomach, soon, either a new life would come into the world or she and it would be killed. She sighed lightly and got up, walking over to the cell door. She peeked out it to see other cells, only they were the ones Edgar spoke of. The prisoners were in total darkness, it probably drove them mad. She spotted a guard wlaking by and quickly backed away from the door.

Edgar shook his head. "Stupid girl." he snarled under his breath "You have no idea what that would do to your mind." he said as he tapped his staff on the floor. "Having your freedom taken away is one thing, but the light as well?" he looked up to the window before back to her once more. "The only human contact they have is the guards. The women more so." he said with a frown before he wiped it away with a look of sternness once more. He watched the guard approach their cell.
"All right whore. Hurry up and pop the little brat out. The king wants to meet it." he laughed darkly.

Amelia turned to him. "That may be, but my point was that I could use the dark as my ally. This is not my first time down here, so I do know what its like to have the light taken away." She said, her face held no expression. Whether if she was bored or tired you couldn't tell. The look she gave was a blank one, until the guard arrived. "Why don't you go fuck a pig or something, that's all your good for from the looks of it." She retorted.

Edger shook his head once more "Moron." he retorted. The guard laughed lightly. "If the king would allow it, I'd fuck a pig right now, I'd make you squeal." he smirked to her. Edgar rubbed his forehead lightly, the guards eyes found him. "The king wants to see you." he said before his eyes landed on Amelia once more. He started making pig squealing sounds before laughing darkly.
3 other guards came to his sides then, he unlocked the cell slowly. Two of the guards entered it, taking Amelia by the arms and pinning her to the far wall. The other guard escorted Edgar from the cell. The guards then slammed her head off the wall before exiting the cell once more. The door was then locked as the first guard laughed at her. "Enjoy your down time." he smirked.
Edgar was marched through the castle until they reached the throne room. He was then thrown into the room. Hazari's eyes landed on him with a plain expression. "Have you learnt your lesson, old man?" Edgar rose his head steadily as he looked to the king. "Yes, your highness."

Amelia snarled as they pinned her to the wall, but it was soon cut short by her head being slammed into the wall. She groaned as she went to her hands and knees, she sent a glare to the guard as he left. Amelia turned her head to the small window, there was a tapping noise and she slowly walked up to it. A hooded figure stood there. "I don't have much time, Amelia." The figure pulled back their hood, it was Onai. She quickly reached down and handed Amelia a small, unnoticable throwing knife. "Use it well, my friend. I will get you out, just hold off until then." Onai said before disappearing. Amelia looked at the knife before hidding it where no guard would see it.

Hazari smirked lightly. "It would seem that I require your continued existence rather than your demise." he said with a heavy sigh. "Which is why.." something seemed to get caught in his throat. "I have chosen to pardon you." the words seemed like they were poison being spat from his mouth. Edgar bowed his head to Hazari, "Thank you, your majesty." he said, Hazari gestured his hand for him to leave. He was escorted back to the healer room.
Hazari watched the door close behind him as his finger traced over his bottom lip. The words of the lycan from the week before rang in his mind 'You better watch your back because I will be'. A frown played over his lips, for once there was a slight sense of worry in his mind, Lycan's always tended to run in packs, one he could handle, but not a pack.

Aemlia paced the cell room, thinking up ways that she could get out. Distract a guard? Fake death? She shook her head, those would never work. Besides, Hazari would probably want to stick her with a sword. Just to make sure that she was dead. She walked up to the cell door once again and looked out it. Various guards walked by, on duty. Her mind went back to the first time she was in here. It was the same old place, nothing changed.

---

Onai once again was surveying the castle, looking for any possible weak points. Of course there weren't any but if she managed to take out a guard or two. Then that would be the weak point. "I am definetly going to need help with this." She muttered to herself. She limped off back to her home, the wound was bandaged but it needed time to heal.

Hazari took a deep breath, closing his eyes. He breathed in his nose before exhaling out his mouth. His eyes then opened with a smirk. "Here doggy's." he said as he stood to his feet, he shouted for his guards to enter. As the guard entered he whispered into his ear. The guard nodded his head and set out to execute the order. The order was spread throughout the entire guards within minutes. Hazari unsheathed his katana from his back and held it out to the side. There was no way that this sword could be broke, even with lycan strength.
The guards were ready and so was Hazari, bring on the dogs.

Instead of walking to her home, Onai walked outside of the city gates. Once she was deep in the forest, she shifted into her Crinos form. She retreated deeper into the forest, she climbed a nearby hill. She could easily see the castle from here, she smirked slightly. Although in wolf form it was more like baring her fangs. She raised her head to the sky and let out a howl, it was soft yet terrifying at the same time. It could easily be heard from the castle.

Hazari stormed through the castle, bursting into the dungeons. He flung the cell doors open as she was tackled to the wall once more. He held the point of the katana to her throat. "Call off the lycans." he said to her. "Or there will be a massacrer. And I'm not speaking about my men." he said with a smirk. "This kingdom is the residents of a vampire lord. If the lycans attack it will be an act of war." he said lightly. "They will be wiped out."

Amelia struggled against the grip of the guards. "Well I can't get to her right now because I'm locked in this hell hole." She snapped. "We will have to go out of the castle to get to her, unless you send one of your men out." She said, staring him in the eyes with a glare. This man really must had been sheltered for he clearly didn't know the lycan ways.

Hazari snarled under his breath. "I want to slice your throat open right here. Right now." he snapped to her. "But I'll settle for this." he said before one of the guards slammed their knee hard into her stomach, repeating the blow several times, watching as she tried to fall to the floor. "No more baby. No more worries." he said as blood dripped from under her dress. Hazari's eyes twitched slightly as he swept from the cell, "Let her go." he said as he disappeared into the castle. The guards grabbed her up and dragged her from the cell and through the castle. They swept her out of the city and through her into the outskirts.
They then sealed off the city, they'd had it well protected from vampire and lycan attacks in the past. There was no way they'd get in.

Amelia curled up and folded her arms across her chest, coughing and wincing as each cough caused her pain. Soon, five figures surounded her. All were lycans in their Crinos form. They nodded and grunted to one another, communicating in the Garou tongue. After they were done, Onai grunted softly to Amelia before picking her up. She turned her head to the city that was now sealed, letting out a growl as they made their way by it. Sneaking past several of the guards.

---

Shayna, also a lycan, was within the city at the time. Although she covered her lycan scent extremely well. Nothing could smell her out unless it was a vampire. She watched as they dragged a human woman out and through into the forest. Blood dripping from her beneath her dress. She tilted her head, then watched as the guards came back in. She scowled and hid herself as the city was sealed.

Hazari paced in the throne room, watching the sun every second. The sun then disappeared from the sky to be replaced by a large half moon. A shadowy figure then appear in the throne room. "It's about time!" Hazari snapped, the figure curled his lips. "Is that any way to speak to someone who's doing you a favour, Hazari?" Aro asked with a light smile. "You might want to know that you've locked a lycan within your own city." he said as he admired the wall hangings. "Do not worry though. Brutus is taking care of it." he said with a smirk.

---

Brutus leaped infront of Shayna, his fangs shone in the moon light as he snarled at her. "You lycan attack city." he barked at her. "No attack or I kill." he said as his bright red eyes glowed at her. He was no ordinary vampire, he was mostly animal these days, only controlled by two people. His face turned into nothing but anger and rage as he glared at her. "Lycans no come. Lycans come. They die." he hissed at her.

---

Valdemar strolled behind the lycans as he smelled Amelia's blood in the air. "Ahh, nothing like fresh blood, am I right?" he said with a light smile as he looked to them. His eyebrows drew together as he tutted under his breath. "You wouldn't be thinking of attacking this kingdom would you?" he said with a grin. "This is my cattle yard. You kill anyone within it. It's theft."

Shayna narrowed her eyes and held her hands up. "Whoa big boy, I wasn't planning on attacking the city." She said calmly. She slowly lowered her hands and surveyed the vampire before her. "I won't attack as long as you don't." She said, still calm. This last thing she wanted, to be attacked by a vampire. Her hands remained at her sides.

---

Onai whipped around, along with the other lycans. Fangs bared and snarls emitted from their mouths. They took defensive positions around Onai and Amelia. Amelia pressed herself tighter agains Onai's body, looking away from the vampire. The others grunted and barked at each other, in their native Garou tongue. Onai shook her head at them. Obviously not liking what they were going to do.

Hazari took a deep breath. "Good boy." Aro said with a smirk. "We'll take care of the lycan infestation. No-one wants a war." he grinned as he sniffed into the air. "Several vampires on the outskirts as well as the one on the inside." he said simply look back to Hazari who had his katana at the ready. "You may have been able to seriously injure one mungrull. But A whole pack, I think not." he said shaking his head. Hazari sat himself down on his throne as he leaned his face to his hand. "I will entrust the protection to you." Hazari said calmly. "One good turn deserves another, so I will expect repayment."

----

Brutus breathed heavily, still snarling at the lycan. "You leave city now." he snapped at her. "You leave or you die now." he sniffed the air obviously detecting the others. "You take them with you." he said pointing a finger in the direction they were. "I no attack. If you attack I kill." he said simply but with the venom still lacing his tone.

----

Valdemar yawned slightly as he looked up to the moon. He rolled his eyes as he listened to them grunt and bark. "Down dogs." he said with a light laugh. "I'm out for an evening stroll and I smelt blood. What do you expect me to do?" he said with a raised eyebrow. "If you'd kindly go in the other direction, we wont have any.. unpleasantness." he said gesturing his head away from Parasitus. "But if you'd prefer. I'd be happy to put you dogs down. However, can either of us afford to have another war?"

Shayna growled slightly but nodded her head. "I will leave." She said in a low tone. She walked off into the darkness, leaping over one of the walls. She then shifted into her Crinos form and made her way to the others. Only to see another vampire, she growled and bared her fangs. Onai looked at her with a serious expression. Shayna backed down and joined the rest, eyeing the vampire all the while. Amelia winced slightly as she shifted her body, she could still fell the blood drip down.

Brutus snarled as he watched her leave before flitting across to Valdemar, appearing by his side. Valdemar watched the other lycan join the others before sparing a glance to Brutus who hissed and snarled in return to their barking and growling. "Now please. Human forms would be more suitable in this situation, since I cannot understand your primitive tongue." he said with a light laugh. Brutus merely stood and snarled at them. "Calm down Brutus, for goodness sake."

---

Aro sniffed the air once more. "They're all on the outskirts now. Along with Valdemar and Brutus." Hazari smirked at his words. "Brutus? Oh they have no chance.." Aro laughed to him. "Indeed. It would appear Brutus has bested both strong vampires and lycans in the past. And of course needless to say humans." he said gesturing to Hazari who rolled his eyes in return. "I do hope it doesn't turn into a blood bath. The lycans can't really afford to lose these few I shouldn't wonder. And the girl."

The lycans turned to look at Onai who nodded. They slowly shifted into their human forms, revealing four males and two females. Onai gently hand Amelia to one of the males. She stepped forward so she was in front of them. "Speak, blood sucker." She said coldly. No one ever liked talking to vampires, especially lycans. Amelia groaned slightly and the male spoke soothingly to her.

Valdemar watched them change with raised eyebrows. Brutus snarled as she called them blood suckers. Valdemar placed a hand to his shoulder. "Calm." he murmured to him. "You've already heard me, mutt." he retorted simply. "Leave." he said as he patted Brutus's shoulder who was ready to rip them apart at the given moment. "Or you wont be able to leave at all. Alive anyway." he said as his eyebrows rose. "Believe me, I don't want it to have to come that. But if you're disrupting my good supply. I will take it personally." he said with a light smile.

The lycans growled slightly, even in human form. They could still do it. Onai barked at them to be quiet. "We will leave, but later I will return to gather some things. For me and for my friend." She said, referring to Amelia. The bleeding had slowed a little, that was the reason the lycans were on edge. Vampires smelled blood, they were immediately drawn to it.
