Schuldig – Crows final

Posted in Black Caste, Mastery with tags city of dust, death, Eve, Vendetta on March 11, 2010 by crow1971

[12:08] Crow looks at Eve when they finaly reach his first destination “We can’t stay long here … Snow might be here … however it seems deserted for now.” he tells her while his eyes scan the surroundings carefully “The ship eventhough paid with my gold was not helping in the delay.” he continues … frowning as he hoped the message Sephi would give V. would take some time.

[12:10] Eveline Ashbourne looks at him and nods…”I am ready to go whenever we need to go again…”….she brushes some hair out of her face and smiles soflty at him…something she did not do all too much but he was one of hte few that knew her…really knew her…

[12:12] Crow turns to the wood and starts to work with it to make a fire “You need to rest for a few now … we will have a long walk in the forest … one that we will have to do by night … There is a tribe I once had dealings with I am sure they will do us no harm … but animals … they are hard to buy with gold.” he said dryly.

[12:16] Eveline Ashbourne looks around for a place to rest and nods slightly…”I am well rested…”she said it almost whispering…..”I rested well befor we went…but i will enjoy hte fire for now and rest my feet for hte long trip…” she sits down and brushes the grass off her skirt..

[12:19] Melchior Wardell tried to keep his stern look when he watched her “I might not be a killer by rank, Eve … but I am still a man … don’t make me bind you and force you to rest.” his voice had the same dark tone and yet there seemed to be some amusement the mere prospect of having her helpless at his mercy did stiirr things in him. takes a seat close to the fire while he watches her beauty in the light.

[12:21] Eveline Ashbourne tilts her head sideways and grins sligghtly…”hmmm bind me? no way! ..i am good in sitting on my own as you can see”…her eyes sparkled for a second…she knew he was a man..and would force her if needed…she stares back into the fire and smiles

[12:24] Crow grins “Don’t tempt me woman.” he feigned his anger, somehow there was no need for to control it now … eventhough he was hardly that quickly angry and surely not with her “Still … I could have had you naked in the tavern when I had the innkeeper bounded at the barrels … You should kiss my feet as I kept you free.” he taunts while throwing a new log onto the fire that seemed to increase in heat and size.

[12:25] Eveline Ashbourne thinks back to that day and blushes… “aye..you could have done that…indeed… and i am still gratefull you didnt…”….she turns her face towards him

[12:27] Crow still suspicious of this location, keeps an eye on the woods that seemed to be a perfect cover but also made it harder for him to see if anyone comes near. “Perhaps there is still some milk in one of the tents … let us get some before we leave.”it was perhaps a mere command he would have given a slave … ” I need to keep guard.” he explained himself

[12:29] Eveline Ashbourne nods….stands up and looks around…”i will take a look right away, i am sure i will find some in one of the tents..”..she walks oveer to one of the tents and enters…

[12:31] Crow crouches down before the fire, while his sharp eyes again seem to scan the horison. “Damn captain.” he curses … “your getting old ..” he tells himself never had he been in a position for making these risks as he had done now. Perhaps it was for the best to leave now … before he would fall into his own blade. His fists seemed to be as solid rocks when he struck the next log for punishment of his own recklessness.

[12:32] Eveline Ashbourne looks around in the tent to see what she could gather for their journey…maybe there was some more food she could grab …she narrows her eyes to see better inside the dark tent and notices some milk….bread…and a few bits of bosk jerky…she grabs a cloth and places the items in htere and folds it…securing it with a knot..

[12:32] Vendetta walks to the hill and where it was known for the BC to be and sees smoke coming from the fire, he can walks the side of the hill keeping his head below the level of the camp and sees the distictive black tent of Crow and thinks his arrogance has given him away and his fate was sealed. He calmly walked facing the tent keeping it between them and him as he heard the voice of his love. He spat on the floor at the word, the traitor to his caste, he who had said the cold heart of a killer wants only gold and steel and nothing comes before it, the codes of the caste will be kept as he walked around the back off the tent allowing him to watch quietly for an oppotune moment when Crow is off guard as he is sure he will not go down without a fight

[12:34] Crow lifts himself up when hearing someone approach instantly turning and alert. His eyes narrow when facing Vendetta … a smirk on his face “Tal Killer.” he said his voice dripping of sarcasm perhaps at his own expense “I see I taught you well.”

[12:36] Vendetta watches Crow from behind him oblivious to his presence, a sloppy camp he thought as he sees him stand and face him ‘ You did Crow ‘ not giving his title as he had disgraced what he once was ‘ You know why i am here ‘ as he places his hand on the hilt of his sword and waits to see what arrogant display he was to put on

[12:36] Eveline Ashbourne hears voices and holds her breath….it seemed someone else was here… she walks quielty to the exit of hte tent, hoping she was not heard… she holds hte cloth filled with food tighlty in her hand and makes no sound…she knew she better say inside the tent and let the visitor think Crow was alone..

[12:39] Crow nods slowly “I know … and yet … Vendetta … I could have been a better teacher if you had struck me without noticing … or instructing my slave to lure you first into the furs.” he grins while he kept his eyes locked to his. Green eyes that had regarded the man the very second he had set foot in the compound and till the man he was today. “One day … Killer you will tire of the same routine … ” he shrugs “I lied that gold is everything … surely when you have more than you can ever spend.” he took from his belt three pockets filled with gold that he had taken for atleast Eve “When you kill me … this will be hers.” he tipped his head to the tent meaning Eve.

[12:42] Eveline Ashbourne hears them talk….her breath stops…she drops the cloth with food on hte ground .her heart skips beats of terror. This was not supposed to happen…They would have dissapeared and no one would ever find out…

[12:44] Vendetta feels a nasty taste well up in his mouth as he hears one he had admired and learnt from talk in such a way. ‘ You are dispicable to talk in such a way and in so try to undermine all i have learned and for what a woman …… a woman ‘ he almost laughed but didn’t ‘ Gold can buy you what you want and death pays for it ‘ he slaps his hand against the tent ‘ And as for her ‘ he says just lettingher know he had seen her ‘ She will do well to leave never mind with gold ……. but it will not be mine …. tainted it is tainted ‘ and olds the green eyes of Crow waiting again

[12:47] Eveline Ashbourne ‘s body trembles…he had heard her…he knew she was here….she takes a deep breath and steps outside the tent but in a safe distance. Her eyes narrowed at V as she stands there quietly, hoping he would just go and leave them alone.

[12:47] Crow couldn’t feel any anger … eventhough every muscle and cell in his body despised the fact the rank no longer held glory “It seems your more talk and judgment than a killer.” he taunts while slowly drawing his blade. A blade that had taken number of lives and he had taken them swiftly. Honorable for in his caste and never breeching one code. Even the care for his daughter would have had limits if they were tested and she was from a time before he could claim the caste. The blade shimmered and Crow would do what it would take if it meant to take a life that stopped him from going. “Better hope you had some practice … boy.” he seemed to hiss … knowing it was a way to get him angry and perhaps blurr his vision.

[12:49] Vendetta quickly draws his blade and pulls it clean by the hilt so the blade catches the sun ‘ You forget Killer i was taught this by Serpent who we know was a better sword than all in camp, and this is for the caste ‘ he walks slowly towards him and circles striking Crow from above and then they battle

[12:49] Gorean Meter 3.1.5: Valiant Quan Has Captured Melchior Wardell!

[12:50] Eveline Ashbourne cries out…Stop!!!!! her eyes grow big seeing Crow fall to the ground.

[12:52] Crow was no match anymore, he had been getting older. The position of trainer hardly kept him fit as he should. Yet he gave resistance when he finaly dropped with a blow. His words were still strong … a man he used to be “Take Eve … Vendetta … take her back to ayr and be sure …”his voice now fading … a mere whisper “I taught you well.”

[12:52] Eveline Ashbourne feels her body trembles as she runs to him…falling on her kneels bedside him and starts to cry…”Crow….Crow…please..please stay with me…”…she whispers in his ear…. holding him tighlty…she looks up for a moment and cires out to V…”why… why did you do it?!” her eyes are full of terror and pain towarrds the man …she turns her face back to Crow and touches his cheek…her hair falls over her shoulders as she kisses him..her voice is nothing more then a small whisper…only he can hear her now…”please…please Crow stay with me…don’t leave me alone…”

[12:52] Vendetta walks over to Crow who is now unconcious on the floor and places his sword back in his sheath and turns to her ‘ Stay and be collared or leave now i suggest ‘ he growls as he places his knee on the downed man and draws his dagger from his arm. He places the blade over his eye and looks over to the woman

[12:54] Vendetta he cirlces the blade dead centre and slowly places pressure on the eye ball watching it concave slightly as the pressure builds until it gives way under his weight and the blade sinks slowly into his brain and severs the spinal cord and Crow begins to twitch as his body start to die

[12:54] Crow felt the darkness come over him as this cloud that he had seen so often by his marks. A peace seemed to make him surrender while perhaps in a last motion he reached for eve.

[12:55] Eveline Ashbourne notices the life running out of him…his face was looking paler by the second…she cradled him, still holding him tightly…her hand brushes his hair…his face, her eyes were locked onto him…she was not going to let go of him…tears fall down her face as she keeps holding him…she was loosing him. She kisses his lips once more…

[12:56] Vendetta takes the blade from the eye socket and slices at the throat cutting threw the Asophogus and trachea and eventually to the spine where he places the blade deftly between two vertabrae and servers the head and holds it to one side and thinks this wil be shown to the candidates as a lesson and Crow was dead

[12:56] Gorean Meter 3.1.5 shouts: Melchior Wardell has been killed by Valiant Quan

[12:57] Crow perhaps for the first time she ever had seen seemed to smile. A smile that was perhaps a mere sign of being at ease what had happend. Perhaps the last of his spirit caressing her while he traveled to the city of Dust … meeting those that he brought there … and meeting those that left him before he turned to the Black Caste and became the Crow … the man that had suffered everything and nothing.

Schuldig (part 4)

Posted in Black Caste, Mastery with tags Eve, sephi on March 11, 2010 by crow1971

[6:49] Crow steps inside his face serious while he watches her sit on the table. She was clearly in deep thoughts and he stepped silently behind her placing his strong hand on her shoulder. Perhaps he scared her more than necsecarry but he was used in being silent and unaware of what his mere presence could do to another. “Tal Eve.” he greets “It is time.” he barely whispers before leaning down and kissing the top of her head.

[6:53] Eveline Ashbourne looks up feeling his hand on her shoulder and looks up at him..she had been in deep thoughts and didnt even hear him come in…feeling his lips on her forehead she smiles softly and nods…whispering…”i am ready…”…

[6:54] Crow lifts her face to his “Are you sure … there is no return after this … unless … ” he sighs tired of perhaps all of this … and yet determined for a happy end “When we step of this dock together … I will be a rougue … an outlaw … no longer the killer I once was.” he tells her.

[6:56] Eveline Ashbourne stares into his eyes, htere was no doubt in her voice and nods again…”i am sure… no doubt in my mind and heart… not at all… I would follow you everywhere..”..what she said was the truth… she would follow him everywhere..

[6:58] Crow pulled her closer in a firm embrace, kissing her lips viciously as if to mark her words to his. Softly murmering “What ever happends with me … I am sure you can always return here … but be aware … no longer can I keep you safe.” he snakes his hand to the small of her back.

[6:58] Eveline Ashbourne slowely stands up….she packed not much, jut the neccassary things… it would look like she was traveling to buy grain and other supplies.. no one wold know that she was really gone…for now at least

[7:00] Eveline Ashbourne feels his lips on hers and kisses him back… a soft moan excapes her lips and she whispers…”I will never leave you, no matter what..”

[7:00] Crow slowly releases her from his grip “You will have to let me go for a little … there is one thing I need to do before we depart.” he looks around “Where is sephi ?”

[7:01] Lilani Mayflower: half-tripping over the edge of the stone the girl peers in at the window, her nose low, her eyes big.

[7:02] Eveline Ashbourne looks up….”she should be around somewhere…she has been helping me a lot….she is never far away”she might be outside..

[7:02] Crow grins “Speak of the devil.” he calls out “Sephi … come !”

[7:02] Lilani Mayflower: grimaces and had hoped to have been less obvious

[7:03] Lilani Mayflower: “Tal my Master!” she smiles a wide greeting at him and seeing the now all too familiar sight of that Baker, calls out a polite “Tal Mistress”

[7:04] Eveline Ashbourne smiles seeing sephi enter the small cottage that was her home for such a long time…”Tal sephi…” she gives the girl a small smile

[7:05] Crow looks down on his lure girl, the slave he bought after finishing his training so many years ago. Perhaps the only one that was able to tell so many stories about the challanges he had faced “Tal mine.” he responded somehow there was something in his voice that held a darkness that was even far beyond anything he had ever faced. He slowly moved the sash he had earned from his arms and folded them neatly before offering them to Sephi “I will have a last task for you mine … but remember it will be one on which my life and proberly yours will depend on.” he crouches down to her eyelevel.

[7:06] Lilani Mayflower: ‘s focusses on her Master’s toes and holds herself still. She swallows hard and takes the sash from him, her fingers not really knowing what to do with it. She listens attentively, making sure not to make a single mistake in her understanding “I will not fail you my Master” she says, although her voice cracks

[7:08] Eveline Ashbourne stayes quietly behind Crow…she was scanning ehr cottage to see if there was something that she maybe forgot… she looks at Crow and sephi and takes a deep breath…knowing this is not an easy moment for either one of them..

[7:08] Crow nods slowly while he regards her, his strong hand reaching for her fragile face, one that was created for the tasks he had set to her so often. The time she had been a key figure in the search for Sol, never forgotten. Her torment even so long ago still showed at times when he looked at her “Mine … take this to the killer Vendetta when he is in this village again.” he brushed his thumb over her delicate lips he so often had forced himself on too. “Tell him exactly … what I am telling you now …”his eyes glowed darkly while he studied her features.

[7:09] Lilani Mayflower: ‘s eyes brim with tears and she nods, saying nothing, not wishing him to think that she could not do what he asked of her.

[7:13] Crow regarded her even if his heart was heavy for what he was facing he tried to give her one of his rare smiles “Tell the killer Vendetta … that you are a final gift to the compound I have served for all this time.” he turns to Eve perhaps wondering if it would be enough but turning back to his girl “Tell him … that Tyros is without a Master Assassin and that the man has left alive.” he knew for sure Vendetta would know that Crow would escape the caste but still would give them knowledge as he wasn’t a total coward. The fact he himself had killed so many killers that had breeched the codes was a heavy brick in his stumach … but his love for eve wasn’t one he would compromise for what now had seemed to be senseless. He took from a pocket on his belt one golden coin. “This …” he tells her ” is yours … if you ever need your freedom … it will buy yours.” he gave her a choice one he never would have given before if his heart hadn’t been soften towards Eve.

[7:16] Lilani Mayflower: ‘s fingers shake as she repeats the message, doing so automatically as she had been taught to. When she had finished she looked at his and there was no doubt that she meant what she said, he would have known straight away if she had not “My Master, I am glad you have found that which has eluded you for so long” she says and her fingers squeezed the sash as she looked at the Mistress and tried a smile

[7:16] Eveline Ashbourne steps closer to Crow and sephi….she places a hand on his shoulder….says nothing but hopes he knows she is here for him…and will be here for him always..

[7:19] Crow grins while placing his own hand on that of Eve while facing his own girl, “You have served me more than I could have ever wished for … and your beauty is unknown and for many something that they will fight wars over … You are precious and yet I know that the life I am facing is one I can’t take you into … it would ruin what you are … a slave.”

[7:20] Lilani Mayflower: “I understand my Master” she said and leans forward a hand on his cheek “I wish you well my Master and your Lady” she holds his gaze for a moment and then looks away, the gold coin tight in her palm

[7:21] Crow chuckles turning briefly to Eve “This one … can lure a man to unknown places, take away his guard quicker than a ray of light when the sun rises.” he turns back and instantly his lips press to hers … hard demanding … perhaps even cruel and harsh. This would be his last claim of her. He broke the kiss as quickly as it was given and lifted himself up “Go Sephi … and be well, Kajira.”

[7:23] Lilani Mayflower: raises her fingers to her mouth and checks her tears, offering him instead a brilliant smile. Tears would be for later. “Be well my Master, be well Mistress” she manages and as she turns for the door, she wedges the coin into a gap in the floorboards and is gone

[7:24] Eveline Ashbourne holds her breath and stays quiet…. she knew this was a moment between Crow and sephi…she would enver interfere….she stares at the bags of flower that contain the things she will talke with her… looks up at sephi and whisers…”be well sephi.”

[7:26] Crow watches her leave … and turns to Eve, instantly composing himself for they were not yet in their final destination. The cloak a sign of his former caste now a cover, a mere disguise. “Let us head to Laura … before we go further to our final destination.” he wouldn’t yet tell her what place he would take her … somethings were yet better not shared.

[7:27] Eveline Ashbourne grabbed her bags and walked after him…she closed the door and only took her two bags with things she really needed…

[7:28] Crow nods to the old captain, the many coins he had paid the man had been a great investment in his new ship “Laura … old man.” he tells him when sure none of the others were listening in. He helped Eve board and stepped onto the ship and pulled the boardwalk up so they could depart.

Schuldig (part 2)

Posted in Black Caste, Mastery with tags Eve, lust, Tanye on March 6, 2010 by crow1971

Crow notices Snow leave and turns to Tanye who lay before his feet. “Rise slave, show me this tent of Snow.”he tells her while he ponders if it was safe enough to stay. He watched Snow go inside and shrugs lightly. There had been enough hostility between them and Snow had more reason to kill him than perhaps any other. The marks he had killed were hardly in a position to come for vengeance and Crow had been quite sure to never leave many witnesses to his deed.

Crow’s thoughts faded when he followed the slave and his eyes travel over the perfect curves she so tauntingly exposed to his view. The tent dark made him stop in his track to give his eyes time to adjust to the dark. “Shadows that hide you.” he mutters softly when he started to look around to see what comforts were in the tent. The furs surely used often, seemed to be piled up highly. Crows grins at the thought of Snow using the slave until she was screaming the birds from the trees nearby. It hadn’t been the rough soil that had made her cry, that much he could figure now.

Crow didn’t speak when the slave whimpered before him, soft pleads up to him. A flick of his fingers, made it quite clear what his intentions were with her. Watching her crawl on all fours to the furs, he started to carefully unwrap himself from the many weapons he carried. Each one he held with the up most care, after all his life had depended on each of them all to often. He made sure that each of them were in reach if needed and the hidden dagger that seemed his life partner he placed next to him when he settled next to the slave.

Crow was pleased that the dark kept her in the shades, perhaps visualizing her to be the pleasure slave he owned or perhaps the girl Sparrow he had sold before she was able to gain more of him as he feared her love more than he had any other opponent. “The priest kings are cruel, slut.” he had hissed when he was ready.

Crow wasn’t a tender lover, roughly and with the sureness of a man that just took his pleasure had not waited and taken her. It had been long that he had allowed himself the weakness of his own flesh. His mouth raped hers while he didn’t seem to be concerned about her readiness. If she was still the wanton slut he had known her for all this time, he doubted she wouldn’t be. With the softness of her skin against his, their mutual sweat as this lubricant that made their movements smooth and almost like this fluent union of lust, his moment had come rather quickly. The overwhelming feeling of his release that had been captured within him for this long, his groans and lustful growls of pleasure had cried out the name of his love: “Eve !!!!!”

Crow unaware of his cries for the woman that had come closer than even his own daughter Rose had been, had pushed the slave from him uncaring if she had her share of pleasure or release. He wasn’t bothered by anything she might desire or think of what had happened. He had turned on his back and allowed himself this moment rest, before he would head off before the day would again start. He wouldn’t stick around for some ‘social breakfast’ there were a few people to see before he would turn his back and walk from what he hoped others would see as going from the face of this planet.

To be continued
