“Be silent. I would suggest you think very carefully about your next phrase for337Please respect copyright.PENANAnCAojgYqyX
I might not allow you to even finish it.”337Please respect copyright.PENANAfL9NvqgQGr
Celle drew her weapon, and for the first time since this mission began, someone was337Please respect copyright.PENANAgNEPMwmpQg
taking an aggressive stance. Dhanel Marce however, remained silent the whole time, as337Please respect copyright.PENANAo4kHUHCo2P
he kept on watching from outside the circle. He was likely pondering about more than337Please respect copyright.PENANApyzJZYLTZT
just this scene happening in front of him.337Please respect copyright.PENANAdWuoItLdAW
“Come then, speak one more word.” she smiled “Please.”337Please respect copyright.PENANA6BAEPr8JGe
Red never moved, even though he was the target of such a threat; perhaps he337Please respect copyright.PENANACBpIlxG1r2
was not aware of the magnitude of the opponent in front of him, or perhaps he was337Please respect copyright.PENANATBq05kc4Z6
confident in his own abilities. Or maybe he just knew his old friend too well, and was337Please respect copyright.PENANACAlR2JN4uE
certain that he would never lose control of this situation. Red kept his feet rested and337Please respect copyright.PENANAIRxB8tWlk6
a calm head, perhaps more so than any other present here. The others however, seemed337Please respect copyright.PENANAEmLAqjPsFU
agitated for they knew Celle for quite a while and how she could be. All apart from337Please respect copyright.PENANAeQFq2pVJ5u
the leader of this party, who so far had been completely absent despite how much the337Please respect copyright.PENANAm2WYHcwM6H
tensions were rising...337Please respect copyright.PENANAZmhOI7jba8
“I just did.” said Red as Celle’s eyes grew more furious “And I will do so again.337Please respect copyright.PENANA5ziy1yT1xK
Pay close attention now, as I resume my questions knowing you will do nothing.”337Please respect copyright.PENANABVQrYfyRb7
“Red you are not helping,” said Deena but Red would continue freely...337Please respect copyright.PENANAc4t8efdvLg
“Marce, isn’t it time for you to put this puppet back on her tight leash?”337Please respect copyright.PENANAg2Hddh3j9r
Celle did not even have the time to raise her weapon properly before Dhanel Marce337Please respect copyright.PENANAO0GnselbiS
finally stepped in to bring an end to this situation. “Celle that’s enough,” he said very337Please respect copyright.PENANAwRZvuz3PEe
calmly, very confident in both his authority, as well as in the discipline of those under337Please respect copyright.PENANA5sqfPK2Coz
him.337Please respect copyright.PENANAI9sYc4VsZm
She did, as always, as she was told, and once her weapon was sheathed on her back,337Please respect copyright.PENANAY5msIBc9jY
she took a few steps away. Infuriated but always disciplined.337Please respect copyright.PENANAJagHT28Vfw
“Nothing but a puppet,” Red added gaining in this way one last look of the Elvorides337Please respect copyright.PENANAevl98K5PFr
woman, as this short but somewhat intense introduction, finally came to a close.337Please respect copyright.PENANAgrpaOwm343
“That’s enough out of you as well.” Dhanel Marce pointed at him, he was serious337Please respect copyright.PENANAFPSJLMHcTA
and after a few more circling steps he would then continue...337Please respect copyright.PENANA9gr5zgUinf
“Am I to assume then Red, that you are here now for the same old reason? Am I to337Please respect copyright.PENANANgmjCIkyYV
assume you just can’t let it go?” the captain continues “I will also assume then, that you337Please respect copyright.PENANAsYYNjVovty
haven’t forgotten our history and conduct, of how we operate and are thus fully aware337Please respect copyright.PENANAAW7OlFnz2Y
of what a predicament this is. Now I know both Deena and Rhim over there would337Please respect copyright.PENANAtyjHM3QGzf
have no problem in us simply ignoring you and continuing with our mission. Lorian,337Please respect copyright.PENANAgR0ZvcMJ0Q
well, he is like me, he is indifferent and whatever I end up deciding is fine by him.337Please respect copyright.PENANANJeIZFuYj6
But Celle, she likes being somewhat of a stiff and as such, she seems not too comfortable337Please respect copyright.PENANAkiAIvP5iso
in ignoring you. So, what to do Red? What to do?”337Please respect copyright.PENANA9SUJ6UEJBL
The leader of this outfit keeps asking himself as if waiting for an answer, a solution337Please respect copyright.PENANAFXuWl8A8lV
he already knows is coming “Red this is serious. This is the most important mission337Please respect copyright.PENANAG7DzTYGN09
ever assigned to the Hervies Hand, way more important than anything you or I have337Please respect copyright.PENANABNzsA4dZN6
ever had to pull off in our days, and one with time growing ever scarce.”337Please respect copyright.PENANAbCwuaC7Cyw
“You are going to the facility atop of that mountain, aren’t you? What else would337Please respect copyright.PENANApEAimiHQkX
bring the five all the way here? Then you know my answer” Red said, “take me with337Please respect copyright.PENANAvqYLx2PwbU
you…”337Please respect copyright.PENANAtWZkCH839r
If anyone anywhere could ever say that they once saw Dhanel Marce chuckle, then337Please respect copyright.PENANAVPPPq3Ufwf
this was the moment they would all be referring to.337Please respect copyright.PENANAI45y3PVQaW
“You jest?!” Celle asked.337Please respect copyright.PENANA6pOr5jzivO
“No.” Red continued as he looked in the captain’s eyes “You know all too well what337Please respect copyright.PENANAJxSzKQXdNf
my reasons are.” a small pause “You also know that you owe me...” Red concluded...337Please respect copyright.PENANAlFMhG5i3jD
Silence then followed from everybody, and maybe Harigar Rhim and Deena knew337Please respect copyright.PENANAmGaN9t8a2M
what Red meant as they had worked together for an exceptionally long time, or maybe337Please respect copyright.PENANADIomnH1yeH
it was something even before all of that. Maybe they did or maybe they didn’t.337Please respect copyright.PENANAGerMYoaQEL
Still, none around those two dared to break that moment, as even Celle’s upcoming337Please respect copyright.PENANAvmQdXL88Aj
frustration was put on a halt for the time being, for even she had curiosity towards337Please respect copyright.PENANA2518jpKZz4
what just had been said and was hoping that more words would follow to quench it.337Please respect copyright.PENANAoI6VaUudOj
“Are you going to play that big card on me?”337Please respect copyright.PENANA1t5vhDuRLa
“If that is what it takes.” Red replied, “I cannot afford to miss this chance.”
Dhanel Marce listened as he had never listened before, for this decision and the337Please respect copyright.PENANASRp0gtXqrk
outcome that can come from it seemed to echo in his mind, and then he gets close to337Please respect copyright.PENANASEe2C93PYR
Red. The two were now almost at a kissing distance and for the second time in front337Please respect copyright.PENANAanuDKdfxjL
of the rest, they whispered to one another.337Please respect copyright.PENANA59B20zNRTz
Words clearly not meant for anyone else to hear...337Please respect copyright.PENANAwT3mT7EdQN
“Very well...” Dhanel Marce finally, reluctantly, accepted - quite the shock to337Please respect copyright.PENANAo7EtpGdqSP
everyone here and to none more so than the Elvorides...337Please respect copyright.PENANAMZq5uNv9QU
“What? No...” she let out...
