Sarcos versus Crodius

Sarcos took off his crocodile mask.

"Handsome indeed." Crodius nodded approvingly.

Sarcos looked at him curiously.

"What do you think you do, kissing the queen?" Crodius looked at him harshly.

"Guarding and lip gloss testing," Sarcos noted.

"But how could you dare to kiss the queen?" Crodius was truly shocked.

"I offended my queen and she said she will forgive me only if I will kiss her." Sarcos said nonchalantly." This is fun." he thought. He was still not too sure what to do with Crodius."How can I refuse anything to my queen? "He said a bit naively, clearly playing stupid.

"Will you do anything the queen asks you?" Crodius asked seriously.

"Yes, " Scar nodded.

"What if she will ask you to mate her?"Crodius asked.

"Yes, it will be my pleasure."Scar nodded and licked his lips.

"What if she asks you to kill me?" Crodius asked curiously.

"I will do it, "Sarcos smiled, "But she is too kind, she does not want that." he chuckled.

"Should you not listen to me and to your king?" Crodius asked and went to sit on one of his thrones.

"I do not have a king. Only my queen."Sarcos chuckled again, following Crodius around the room. The tension was almost visible in the air.

Crodius looked puzzled."Why are you acting so clever with me? Did not you see how I dealt with king Sharchan? And he was a king. I took his queen of him."

"Yes, my queen," Sarcos nodded," King Sharchan is still very weak." He chuckled.

"Do you think you are so strong?"Crodius smiled and he pressed the button on his throne. The deep trap ditch opened under Sarcos.

"No, Crodius stop!" Sienna called in horror. "Now it will be harder to keep Crodius alive."she sighed in her mind.

Crodius looked at Sienna victoriously.Then he wanted to close the ditch, but saw Scar is still standing there over the open ditch!

Crodius blinked in disbelief.Scar smiled at him and walked closer.

Crodius blinked his eyes again."Is that guy walking on air?" he watched shocked.

Yes, indeed Sarcos walked on air."Old tricks." he chuckled.

Crodius stared.

"Who are you,Scar?"

"Whoever I want to be. Now, I'm my queen guard and lipstick tester ." he chuckled.

"And a powerful sorcerer as I see." said Crodius.He tried to think fast what to do. He closed the ditch and went down his throne. He had to go closer to the queen now.If he will hold her, he is the boss again! Sienna saw what he is trying to do, and clenched into Sarcos's arm nonchalantly.

"Crodius!How could you? He is my guard.You should not open that ditch." Sienna said upset."How do I convince him to let you live now?"She sighed.

"What do you mean? You need to convince him to let me stay alive? " Crodius asked shocked. "I do own you."

"If you offend me, I can forgive you.But if you offend him, I can only beg for you."Sienna shook her head.

"I don't know if I can forgive him."Sarcos held Sienna's hand on his arm."He wanted to ditch me!"he said pitifully.

Sienna chuckled."You are so funny.I'm so happy you are with me, let's just calm down and make a deal, hm?"she looked sweetely at him.

"Sienna, leave the guard and come to me," Crodius tried to order her.

"She can't, she is stuck."Sarcos lifted her hand up in his. "I'm taking what is mine."he said seriously.

"We just do the bussiness together, no?There is no need to fight."Sienna tried to calm them down.

"Look, Crodius, I made you these portraits of me, so you can show my beauty to all your customers," she pointed at covered canvases.

Crodius pulled the fabric down."This is what you was working on? To run away from me with the guards?"

"No, to keep my word.I can't stay with you forever.I have mates waiting for me."Sienna tried to explain.

Crodius stared at her," Did you just betrayed me with the guards?"

"No, "said Sienna. "I still want to help you to finish our cosmetic range. I just do not belong to you.I'm his."she pointed at Sarcos.

"From when?"Crodius lifted his eyebrow.

"From the time he took me." Sienna chuckled.

"But you are the queen, you can't be with the guard."Crodius shook his head.

"And lip gloss tester, "Sarcos added."

"You need to be a king, dear Scar."Said Crodius resolutely."You can't take the queen just because you like her and are a strong sorcerer." he noted.

"You are right, but could I have her, let's say... if I'm a Scorpion king?"Sarcos looked at Crodius.The flaming scorpion appeared in his eyes.

Crodius did a few steps back."The Scorpion King Sarcos."He called surprised.

"You deceived me?" Crodius looked at Sienna.He had to be careful now, if he wanted to win against Sarcos.

"No, I just found out by myself.I'm still willing to make our range and help you to start the bussiness." Sienna said gently.

"Why would you?" Crodius narrowed his eyes.

"To keep my word.And it is a good idea, I told you already, that you deserve it for letting the females live." Sienna smiled.She just wanted to stop the tension.

Crodius looked in awe."And you will let me live?" he looked at Sarcos.

"Still thinking, let's first finish what we started.I'm a king, but what is your claim to my queen?" he looked at him seriously.

" You will see soon enough, I can became king too if I want."Crodius bit his lips.

Sarcos looked at him."Should I treat you as a king then?"he said in freezing voice.

Sarcos felt Crodius is up to something and wanted to tease him a little."Sienna, what I did with the last king who wanted to ditch us?" Sarcos asked Sienna coldly.

"His body fell apart in bloody pieces and he burned till little blue diamond was left."

Sienna swallowed hard and looked at Crodius.

"Why did I wanted to kill him more cruelly then the king before him?" Sarcos continued.

"Because he said he will kill me." Sienna swallowed hard again.

She felt scared in her heart.

"Did Crodius, the future king, wanted to kill you?" Sarcos grinned cruelly.

"Yes, but I did explained to him it was bad idea, you was there."Sienna said.

"Exactly, I was there.He was happy to bleed you to death for his discusting mixtures.

So what does he deserve?"

Sarcos asked Sienna coldly .

"To became a merchant, because he did not killed all that females." Sienna bit her lips.She pulled Sarcos's hand."Sarcos,will you let Crodius live, please?"

"No, I deserve to bleed out and burn like others."said Crodius and chuckled coldly. He was quite surprised how kind-hearted the queen is.She really tried hard to save him.This was actually quite entertaining.

Just then the king Gaius came in."Mage Crodius. I brought you two kings, they say they are friends of queen Sienna."

Sienna turned abruptly.Xander and Ramse walked in between the Gaius's soldiers nonchalantly.

Crodius smiled victoriuosly... "So, king Sarcos are you willing to spare my life? My life for these two or they will be killed right now."

"What is going on?" Gaius asked, "Stop, you can't just kill these kings, that was not what you asked me to bring them for.They are my guests."

"I'm in charge here!" the mage smiled sneakily. "Do you think I will let you be the king ever? Never! You are just a little boy.l will be the king, I will keep the queen, city, everything for myself. Welcome to the trap everyone!" He chuckled. He gave the signal with his right hand and the army of black soldiers came out of the walls.They all held the sharp arrows and bows ready to shoot."Now, you all surrender or you are dead!"Crodius smiled."So, king Sarcos, what do you have to say?"he looked at him victorious.

Sarcos looked at him."You sealed the deal.Do you think you still can negotiate with me after this? "

Sienna sighed."Crodius, you should stop this, it will end bad for you.My work was all for nothing...Can't we just let go of this stupid feud and let everyone go in peace, make a good bussiness deals and be friends?" She asked nicely .

"No, you little naive queen.You will be mine alone, after I kill your Scorpion King," Crodius chuckled.

Gaius stood in front of Sarcos." The Scorpion King is my guest, all kings here are my guests.Who are these soldiers?"Gaius asked. "They are not from my tribe!"he was puzzled.

"They are from Black Lizard Tribe, I called them to help me to became the king here. I was thinking you are willing to save the queen, Gaius, as I told you we will be leaving.I was expecting to catch you stealing her and then I planned to kill you as by accident, but I got king Sarcos instead. "Crodius chuckled." Now I can have you all killed.4 kings at one shot!"he chuckled.

"Please, let just stop this."Sienna called," It is rediculous, there is nothing here to fight for!"

"I can clearly see something worth fighting for!" The black figure stood up from the top gallery of the Throne Room next to the black soldiers.

"Vampire!'Sienna flinched as the tall and sleek warrior showed up.His skin was pale white, almost shining from the shadows. His eyes were bright scarlet red and his long black hair fell down his waist. He looked like a person from another world or cold vampire from the movies.He was wearing kimono like black scaly armour.His face was smooth, almost possessing feminine beauty.

" Crodius, if you give me the queen, you don't need to pay me." he said in echoing voice which freezed deep in the bones.

"Ahh, Mathyas, how lovely to see you my friend.I see your face is healed perfectly."Sarcos grinned."Do you think you are so irresistible, so you can get my queen?" he chuckled.

"By my force, the night became the day and day became the night.Dark powers, Sarcos."Mathyas chuckled.
