((Okay then))
Whispers and doubt erupted from the small group of people.
Serynn was astonished, her mouth wide open.
Brelair tugged at her sleeve, "Hey, are they doing something bad?"
Serynn quickly forged a smile, "Nah, they're just talking about grown-up stuff."
Brelair smiled, "I'm nearly a grown-up!"
"Not grown-up enough" Serynn laughed.
"Aww..."
Suddenly someone shouted out from the group, "The Sire'd never sign that! That's against the goals of the Organisation!!"
"Let me see that contract!"
"Be respectful in front of Senior Vivian!"
"Let him speak!"
"He's a liar!"
The small group had exploded with debate.
"Everyone! Everyone!" Serynn tried screaming, butto no avail over the roar of the crowd.
((Sorry for the crap post; writer's block))

"Quiet!" Shelrair screamed...
"I too at first didn't take a liking to Vivian's plans, but I can see exactly what needs to be done, as does Kyou, this mission not only will make our powerful voices heard, but it will also ensure peace to this Country, you have no choice here, my friends, If you believe a change in our plans is in order, then in that case, come with us to our hideout anyways and we will discuss it!"

((Uninterrupted walk past the gaurds ;D))
Hmm... Unusually slack for Central guards...
Kitharis thought back to the days when the guards would have frisked through anyone who even looked slightly suspicious...
Kitharis skulked down and hunched his shoulders, wondering if he would be noticed...
((Happy for epic chase and/or capture if it involves me in anything ;D))

((None of our characters are in the prison, and if you want to be chased you can control the NPCs yourself, as we haven't made any in or around that area or whatever))
"Hideout? What is this?"
"Who is that woman!?"
"Everyone, please SHUT YOUR MOUTHS!"
The hubbub began to calm as an older man walked up to the front of the gathering,
"This is the Sire's wishes. We, of the Organisation, cannot always expect to know or understand our situations. I thought that was clear from the day each of you would have been welcomed into our midst.
Sometimes things are more straightforward than others, but we can't expect to sit back and have everything fine and dandy."
"...But... This is the Palace...!"
"WHAT IS THE ORGANISATION TO YOU!?"
Everyone was silent.
"A COMMITMENT TO THE ORGANISATION IS A LIFETIME COMMITMENT. WE ARE IN NO WAY RELATED TO THE IMMESTRIAL EMPIRE...
...Nor are we in any way affiliated with any other alleigance... That is what we all must pledge.
Yes, lives are going to be lost. So shut up and pay attention so that you aren't one of them."
The crowd was silent...
...But all of a sudden, it erupted into cheer and applause.

Kitharis pulled down his hood, swiftly moving through the crowd...
"Hey! Watch where you're going!" said a large man, as Kitharis bumped in to him...
"Sorry..." Kitharis mumbled, looking up in to the face of his old jailer...
"Oh shi-"
"HEY!" I know you!" The man lashed out at Kitharis, who ducked underneath, turning, and slamming the man in the stomach. Kitharis ran in to an alley-way as the jailer tried to rally people to chase him...
Where could I hide.... Hmmm...
Ah... I've got it...
Kitharis ran through the streets, turning in to a run down district... He saw the old "abandoned" shop, and slipped through a window, closing it behind him... He ran down a flight of stairs, to a door, and knocked...
"I would like a meeting with the Sire..." Kitharis said.
He waited...
And waited...
Finnaly, the door opened... ((Not very efficient are they?))
"Come this way, sir..."
Kitharis was led through the structure, past many rooms, hearing some faint cheers as he went. He was led in to a room with rubble and overturned crates, and saw a man dragging he's way across the room.
"Sire, are you alright?" said the guide, going over to Kyou's side. He stopped, and looked down at the blade protruding from his chest... Kitharis kicked the body over, then stepped towards Kyou...
"Why hello, Sire..." whispered Kitharis...

((So he killed the guide?))
Kyou looked up at the newcomer, too stunned by everything to really care about who he might be.
Another one of Vivian's men...?
"Come to finish... Me off, have you...?"
Has body shook and he bled, but it wasn't simply physical pain that left him so broken a leader, dragging himself across the room towards the newcomer.
Death would be accepted now... But I can't take the easy way out after my ancestors shed blood and tears for me to be where I am now... It's my duty...
((Frost, where is Siberius? I want he and Savannah to have another fleeting meeting of sorts.
Lol, fleeting meeting... I'm using that line now))

Kitharis crouched down as Kyou crawled towards him, keeping his sword close at hand...
"Finish you off? No... I just want answers... First of all... Why did you let the Brotherhood be captured..... Tell me... TELL ME NOW!"
Kitharis pointed his sword towards Kyou, wondering if the implied threat would be enough...
((Kitharis has crazy eyes as he's saying this. He's a bit crazy after spending years in jail.))

Even in his state, Kyou could not help but laugh at the man's outburst, "B-Brotherhood?"
A smirk appeared silently across Kyou's face. He had heard whispers of a 'Brotherhood' before he was ordained Sire by the Elders, but had only seen them as pawns.
To think they're still alive?
He closed his eyes, suddenly composed,
Perhaps fate is on my side, after all.
"I know many things, good sir, but... As you see I'm... Not exactly in a great position to tell...
If you aren't with the last man who tried... To kill me, at least do me a favour by helping me first..."

((Farrelei and I have already talked about this))
"Hmmmf... All right, I will see what I can do..."
Kitharis turned away, the spun back, throwing his knife at Kyou, which struck him handle first on the forehead, knocking him out cold. Kitharis untied some leather cords, using them to strap Kyou to his back, then heaved him up in to the straps.
He pulled the straps around the front, not being able to reach around Kyou and tie him up at the back. He finished, covering him with his cloak, moved as fast as he could out of the room...
He wound his way through the building, carefully avoiding any footsteps he heard. He paused, hearing exited chatter from one of the rooms....
He decided that eventually people would exit, and thought better of trying to eavesdrop...
He went up a few flights of steps, and heard guards patrolling near the doorway...
He pulled a sleeping powder ball out of a pocket. This ball was scented with alcohol, perfect for what he had in mind... He tossed it up the stairs, towards the guards, and waited a few seconds until he heard bodies fall...
He ran out in to the rain, heading for an old house that his guild had used as a base, just a 20 second run down an alley... He crept in side, through a window, dumping Kyou on the floor. He went and got a jug of water, and poured it over Kyou's face...
"Wake up, Sire..."
((I has extended eet ;D and edited it.))

Siberius was about to turn to head back into the dining hall, when Violet had finally caught up with him, "Siberius!" She said, jumping up and hugging him, Siberius, not expecting this encounter.
"Violet, uh, how are you?" He asked, still surprised,
"I've been better, I just had to endure a disgusting leftover breakfast with the other maidservants, a few of the bananas were a bit intact though..."
Siberius chuckled a little, which caused Violet to laugh herself.
"So are you doing anything today? I was thinking that we could go for a walk in the Imperial Gardens, or visit that great shop in the Western Avenues, what'dya think?" She asked hopefully,
Siberius paused for a moment, which caused Violet to half-expect the answer that was coming.
"I dunno...this rain, it's a bit...violent. Don't you think?" He replied distastefully, "Besides, things are quite...chaotic these days, I don't know if it's safe to be walking around."
"Come on..." Violet almost pleaded, "You never have enough fun, you need to loosen up a bit."
Siberius turned to Montecore, who could just be seen at the end of the open corridor, Savannah's face could be seen to, just.
"Umm, I'm sorry, I have to go, I'll talk to you later, you'll see me around," He told her, before rushing off back to Montecore.
Shelrair turned to Vivian, who were both smiling brightly, Vivian turned to (Father Mckenzie?) and smiled at him too, he was glad people were beginning to see things his way.
"Shelrair..." Vivian murmured to her, Shelrair leaned closer in, still smiling,
"Remind me to never bring you along on such cases, and to bring Trale instead, this whole facade would've went much better if you were not in this picture."
Shelrair's face slowly changed expression, to a more hateful look, that would've caused people to be filled with fear if they saw her, she quickly changed expression again, and smiled to the audience once again.
Your case? We'll see about that, She thought angrily.
"Now then! Gather your things! For we leave to the tunnels of our forefathers to await the time of attack!" Vivian yelled.

((McKenzie is at the headquarters of the Descendants, not the Organisation))
Savannah eyed the girl as she ran past, and then allowed Montecore to go ahead of her before she tagged loosely behind on her way forward.
"Who was that?" she muttured softly as she stopped in front of him, Montecore now by his side and her task complete.
Her voice sounded bland, but inside she felt a slight desire to speak with him, even if just as acknowledgement for returning Montecore.
The water spilled down Rine's nostrils, which blocked up when he subconsciously breathed in during his unconsciousness.
He spluttered for a few moments before his eyes snapped open and he gasped in air surrounding him, throwing himself upwards, his nose burning.
It took a while for his other senses to come back to him, and soon his body was aching again.
He lifted his head disgracefully to see Kitharis above him, "A-Ah... You. What have you done with me?"

((Rine? 0.o possession?))
Kitharis looked down at Kyou. He remembered that all of the former Sires of the Organisation hadn't been helpless men, so after he got his answers...
"I just... Helped you..."
I'll have to move quickly...
"Well Sire, if you ever heard of the reason why your Organisation abandoned the Brotherhood like discarded tools, I would like to hear it. I would also like to know what happened to my... Lets see... Ten thousand gold fee for an imperial assassination, plus inconveniences, including lost members and six years of lost time comes up to... Around one hundred thousand gold pieces or so... And yes... I realise I will never, ever be payed... Even after saving your sorry life..."
He'd better speak... I probably don't have much time before the guards start searching door to door....
"So, do you have an answer, Sire?"

((I meant Kyou))
Kyou spat the words back at Kitharis, "Sorry life? Why, if you aren't the majesty of all ironies!"
He even managed a smirk before he stretched a little, still sitting there on the ground of the rank, dusty and naked floor, "And I must remark on your boldness, murderer. Tell me, as I wasn't in control of the Organisation at the time... Was it your 'Brotherhood' who committed the terrible act of treason unto our dear past Emperor Artaliun - Geovis that is - not his son, the late and tragic Sei?"
His enjoyed playing with the minds of the less sparky, which he hadn't been able to do for a long time.
Despite the mockery of his situation, Kyou still knew the man in front of him could be dangerous - after all, to be able to successfuly steal the Sire of the Organisation and escape unscathed was a truly remarkable feat...
Or so he hoped, anyway.

Kitharis looked down at Kyou, admiring, but at the same time wondering why someone would do something so stupid as to insult a captor who appeared to have the upper hand...
"Yes, a sorry life. If I hadn't come when I had, you most likely would have been dead..."
I was warned about this Sires having strange powers... I should be careful...
Kitharis started to unravel bandages from a table, and began wrapping Kyou's wounds.
"You know there is a high chance of these wounds getting infected... You should seek help as soon as possible.. And it was one of your Organisation's Sires who commissioned the assassination of Geovis... So you can't exactly say you were blameless... I like to think of it as... "Early passing" considering they could have died much more horribly... If you need me again, you'll have to pay. Seeing as you won't, I hope we never meet again after this day..."
Kitharis offered a hand down to Kyou.
"Can you walk? I have a feeling that if either of us are found, your "Friends", like whoever did this to you, aren't going to be very happy..."
And neither will mine...
