A Cry Unheard.

[Brutus De Ronheart]

Btutus looked over the woman awhile. He never really laid eyes on a female that was a creature. The surprising thing was, she was actually very beautiful. The features of her face were sharp and smooth, and the tattoos, what did they mean. He then felt a nudge against his leg. He took his eyes from the woman and looked to Leyroy, who was giving him a look, pretty much telling him to quit starring. Brutus looked away, was he actually checking out a woman not of his race?

The thought was banished by the thundering feet of the well known demon man. This demon never did like Brutus, probably jealous of his fame, plus he fought Brutus and lost. To his luck, it wasn’t a death match.

Brutus looked down as the demon spoke to the woman, then a hard club hit him in the back. “ngh!” he let out his painful grunt as quite as he possibly could. His fingers gripped his cup harder as he gritted his teeth. By his surprise once again, the woman stood up for him. A Creature standing up for a human? It was unheard of, but just happened before his very eyes. Brutus quickly stood. “Don’t..its not worth it.. please..I…”

Before Brutus ever did get to finish his sentence, he watched the demon stabbed in the stomach and fall over dead. Leyroy’s jaw dropped, a woman, a woman defiantly just killed a man. “..d**n..”

Brutus took in a breath as he watched his enemy die on the floor helpless. The two gladiators would follow the woman out of the dungeon.

Leyroy nudged him with a smile. “You like her, yes?”

Brutus secretly smacked him along side his head. “Was not.. she was.. interesting..”

[Iestyn Belzir]

Outside Iestyn stretched her arms and looked around a minute until the other men were outside with her. "Alright, so we'll be heading to Emue. It's a long trip, but I think you'll do fine. As long as you don't get airsick." Thank god the creatures had kept planes around. About the only thing they had kept too. Planes and electric lighting.

Iestyn smiled and observed their clothing though. And their hygiene. "We might need to stop and get you boys cleaned up first though. Where we're going warriors are treated better. Fed better, clothed better, and cleaned more often. No offense boys, but you stink." She chuckled lightly and then motioned for the man who was helping her to bring her her horse.

When her mare was brought up to her she smiled and pat it's cheek. "I didn't make you wait too long, did I?" She kissed her horse's forehead and then climbed on. She looked down at the three men. "We'll pick up horses for you two as well in the next city. Mr. Albere won't be staying with us much longer."

"Shall we?" She asked, motioning ahead. "It'll be afternoon soon enough and we should get to the city before that if we want to find a place to stay and get you guys cleaned up." With that she snapped the reins gently and moved Lixy - her mare - forward.

[Brutus De Ronheart]

Brutus looked around in all directions, taking in a big breath of the fresh air. It felt so nice and cool in his lungs. By the expression on Leyroy’s, he must have felt the same. They followed the woman and waited as her horse was brought to her.

When she mentioned about the two stinking, they kind of looked at each other, then to her. “Not are fault” They said in unison.

“We only get to shower once every two weeks.” Explained Brutus softly “I agree, we should stop somewhere and clean up first before meeting up with your friends.” The gladiator squinted his eyes from the sun as he walked along side her, while she rode her horse. “Who are you?” he finally got enough courage to ask her. Hopefully she wouldn’t anger like that demon man did, and beat him to a bleeding pulp.

Leyroy agreed with Brutus “Leyroy could use some clean water and new clothes, but me happy with what I have. I do not know how to thank you kind creature. For all of us were suffering in there like sick animals…”

Brutus was reminded of Pandora and glanced over at the large building. Would he ever see the man again? Would fate bring them to one another once again. Both Leyroy and Pandora were like brothers to him, and were the only friends he had.
