It was very dark, Duke dimir walked in the lonely forest alone, with his black cloak. moving graciously by the leaves.
Stepping in the middle of the forest where trees surrounded him, he called out to nothingness.
"What do you have for me this time". The trees surrounding him immediately turned back to their original form tall, slim body with a weird shape of tongue and feet.
Duke dimir looked at them with disgust. Though he had seen them like this consecutively he just needed to breathe well.
He didn't bother that he was surrounded by a number of weird looking creatures. If they tried shit with him he'd out them back into the mud.
"S..... iiir. We have newssss".
Duke dimir frowned at them they immediately understood and transformed into a decent human being which he's sure they must have killed recently as their skin looked fresh. But he didn't care as he said he did to allison.
" Duke". They bowed their head while the leader continued.
"Speak". Their leader raised his head abruptly.
" The blue Phoenix. It lives"
The Duke frowned and dashed a slap across the splitters face.
"What do you mean!!!". The Duke raged. Do you even know the existence of the blue Phoenix. Though he has secretly been in search of them, for this splitter to actually say that he....
Fool. He concluded.
" I know I told you to find news about the blue Phoenix. But what did you tell me that the blue Phoenix lives among us! in this lands". Though he had been searching without any remorse leaving no stone unturned. He finally heard this.
He was excited but hid his excitement as he wanted proof.
How was he not able to spot anything out and this creatures were?. His voice deepening at the end je said.. " And I didn't know about it "
"At dire pole, we have seen some traces which links exactly to the existence of the Phoenix. The hunters said they'll follow the traces and report to you for further investigation"
"Dire pole? "
" Where exactly in dire pole "
"At the auctioning site sir"
Duke dimir hummed in agreement.
"The blue Phoenix is known to have a translunary scent. It'll be easier to find her in this manner"
"Send a message to the hunters". As he said this the slits looked at him in admiration. He was actually able to contact the hunters just like that.
The hunters were a secret set of people in their society. Their activities were hidden and it was said that they have their limits to run in the darkness.

It was late in the night, legolas sat on the bed patiently waiting for Allison to come out of the bathroom.
While he was waiting he suddenly heard a loud scream coming from downstairs. He immediately ran over passing through the corridors.
Coming to face the site where Allison laid flat on the ground..... .she was not moving, she was dead.
A lady laid next to allison and wailed in pain. Turning to hear an older man say.
"Sanderson there's no use she's gone"
"Don't tell me that!!!". She wailed.
The older man sighed in pain and agony. Legolas assumed those must be her parents. Slowly he tried to make his way close to her only to hear her mother say.
" Don't come any closer!!.it's all your fault !!!"
She screamed. A sudden tear fell from his eyes, not listening to what the lady named Sanderson had to say he quickly went and sat on the floor next to his master.
"Master. master wake up you say you'd punish me if I ever call you master isn't that so, wake up master wake up! "
Allison still didn't move an inch as she was socked in blood it was obvious she was dead.
Legolas looking at her closed eyes. Remembering those clear blue crystal eyes which were now shut in darkness, his heart clenched. Why did he have the urge to see her look at him again.
He remebered how she'd stare at him. The look in her eye when she saw him at dire pole.
The way she lost her temper when the auctioneer hurt him.
All this, he had just gotten to know her and now she'd be a forgotten memory.
"Nooooooo!!! "
Legolas screamed with tears in his eyes. He didn't notice the drop of crystal clear tears which fell from allisons closed eyes.
"Legolas, Legolas". She called out to him but he was so caught up in the pain he didn't realize.
"Legolas, Legolas, Legolas... "
" Legolas ". Allison called out to him sitting beside him on the bed.
She looked at him with worry in her clear eyes.
The candles burning in the room could be seen reflecting on her pupils.
"Master" He said. Not realizing what happened next he immediately hugged Allison.
It was a dream, it was all a dream. Legolas breathe hard.
Allison not expecting this action from legolas froze on the spot.
The guy has always been distant since they met and now he was hugging her. There was definitely something wrong.
"Hey". She called out to him in a slow soft voice.
" Are you okay". She asked still frozen on the spot.
Legolas still didn't respond to her and just embraced her further in the hug.
As they were on the bed their bodies were unusually close to each other, maybe Legolas wasn't stable now but Allison was sure in her right state of mind.
She made sure not to breathe at this moment as her chest was against his.
She took her time to finally say his name.
"Legolas". Not talking too much only to hear his husky yet stern voice.
" Don't move". She didn't know why but she obediently listened to his words.
After a good few more minutes he finally let go of her.
Their eyes both met. One was a little watery while the other was confused and had questions.
"Bad dream". She said shortly for him to nod in agreement.
" How often does it happen"
"It's consistent". He looked further into her eyes not knowing what his stare was doing to her he asked.
" Are you scared ". His question was really out of the blue. Why would she be scared and for what exactly.
"Scared of what". She inquired. She was definitely sure now what something must have happened in his dream.
" Scared of dying one day "
His words cut sharp into allison's mind. Dying, she didn't know what death was. But as at now her thoughts were running wild. But she didn't think much about this. She had a creature an undeniable great creature inside of her, and she knew very well the kind of people after her. It was just a matter of time before they find her and when that time comes. Hell will be a lot warmer than to be around her.
Hearing this Allison smiled. "Everyone has to die in this life at some point"
She said casually. Standing to pour a glass of water for him.
Her words shocked the little strength Legolas had when he hugged her, what was lady Allison saying or exactly what did she mean that everyone would die one day,....does that mean that she is ready for death.
But that wasn't the case he felt that there was an undeniable meaning to her words.
He just stared at her back view and took in her figure. She looked graceful and harmless, but for some reasons she always felt a little strange with her words.
He thought to himself. This new master of his was really something.
