Surrender Part 8

Sorry I haven't gotten anything out for a while, I had a rough break. First I went to Disney Land and it was ruined by the evil step mom. Then my cat died. Then my other cat had surgery and nearly died. Then my dog was put down in my arms. It was just... rough. But I finally got this out! I really hope you like it! It sure felt nice to write....

You left off falling asleep after Jared had admitted his affections for you...

Our "Big Five" Personality Assessment Quiz!

  1. What is your age?
  2. What is your gender?
  1. I woke up cold and cramped. I had a terrible feeling of lonelyness, loss, and fear. I must have had terrible dreams. I put my palms to the floor, aiming to push up and rise from the floor, yet a stinging pain prevented me from doing so. I looked to my palms and found it filled with cuts. I always dig my nails into my hands when I have nightmares. I groaned, this would mean I'd have to ask for some treatment, they were way to deep to ignore. Somebody in my room sighed and I jumped to my feet in shock. I looked and found Jared and Pierre standing in the doorway. I was too focused on my hands to notice that they had come in. "The floor is no place to sleep mon cher." Pierre said, a bit sadly. "This room is yours, and that bed is very comfortable." I looked at the perfectly smooth sheets, untouched, unwelcoming. No, this was not mine. He seemed to know my thoughts, and looked down a bit crestfallen. He certainly didn't ever try and hide his feelings. "It's time for you to dress, servants will be in to help you and your injuries." I looked over at Jared surprised. "Yes I noticed." I looked to the side blankly. The cuts gave away too much, I don't want them to know that they've gotten to me. I watched as they walked out the door and out of my sight. They both looked sad and unhappy.
  2. I felt bad, oddly. These two seemed to want the best for me, but I still wasn't happy here. The appearance of luxury is a lie to me, this still feels like a prison, and I can do nothing to fix that. I don't have a choice of coming or going like I had at my home. Only if I could find a hope stone.... I couldn't dwell on it much longer for some girls had entered my room. They had many choices of clothing for me to wear, I mean, they weren't my comfy jeans, but I was ready to get into something without blood. My wounds were treated, and I chose to wear...
  3. I waited after the girls left for some one to come take me, and to my surprise, Katryn showed her face. She wore a black ball gown with off the shoulder straps decorated in black roses. She stood high with her sleek black hair rolled back in a bun. Her blue eyes shown under her black make up. Her black pumps made her level with me. We stood nose to nose, and we had one hell of a stare down. Her eyes burned with fury and hints of fierce jealousy. We stood there, the intensity building up every moment, neither backing down. I was extremely surprised however when a figure stepped in between us. I wasn't touched but Kat was thrown back, before me stood Pierre. His eyes were closed and mouth set, and I soon knew why. Kat exploded with fury, punching and scratching at his back. She then stormed off angry and disappeared into the realm of the dead. Pierre opened his eyes and looked me over with a mixture of concern and desire. "Did she hurt you?" He asked in his french accent. "No." I responded, slightly shocked at his utmost concern. He sighed with relief. "When I heard she was sent to retrieve you I rushed to get here. She is the best liar and actress, but so violent. She wants to be you, she wants to have many men love her and be the most powerful woman of the universe. Her envy for you is incredible. If Jared hadn't watched over you too, I wouldn't have let her find you. It was of pure coincidence that I was present when you were found. I am glad though that I was."
  4. We began the walk to whatever destination I was going to. I didn't bother to ask however, I'd find out soon, I am much more curious about Pierre. "So, how old are you?" I asked him a bit timidly. He laughed and looked down at me with an eyebrow raised, "Well, old by your standards, however, I turned of age for my species two years ago. When you turned 18 a month ago, your aging slowed immensely. Now you age just as slow as the superpowers do. However, I can say that if I was human, in relationship to your age, I would be 20, so would King Stratus, oh, excuse me, you would know him as Pierce. As for Prince Jared Eisen, he would be 18. And since I'm already comparing them all, King Malcolm Shaw and King Sean Reiss would be 19." "So I will live how long?" "Many a millenia." I paused, stopping in my tracks. The fact that I am no longer aging like I would merely because of me holding an age old treaty in my very being was astonishing. I felt a hand pressed to my shoulder, and I kept moving. I can't believe any of this....
  5. Before us appeared the same great hall. The throne and all. I took a deep breath and continued into the room a bit nervous. I have no idea what is about to happen, but I don't think I'm about to be hurt, I don't think Pierre and Jared would allow that. This gave me confidence and I lifted myself as we approached the King. His cold eyes were set on me, watching me, waiting to pounce. We stood before him and this time I knew to bow. Frustratingly, but I wasn't going to argue that point. I'm sure I'll raise hell about something soon. "Leave us. Retrieve my family, they must be here and I cannot reach them for whatever reason." He told Pierre. Pierre glared at him a moment, no doubt a silent threat, and then he turned to do as the King commanded. I heard Pierre leave, but my eyes would not leave the King, I didn't trust him in the slightest. We stared at each other a moment, and he gave me a grin full of yellow teeth. Oh boy.
  6. He stood and began to circle me, as if he was a vulture. I knew instantly that he had no intention of anyone being here but the two of us. Pierre was simply an obstacle removed. I glared at him and snarled, giving my best at intimidation. While my efforts were very good, it wasn't enough. "So we have a dilemma. I unfortunately do not have rights to the thrown. I was merely holding it until my nephew Jared found a wife. He is the rightful king. I do rather like being called Your Highness however, and do not plan to relinquish the thrown. He has his eyes set on a woman however, a woman that would benefit me greatly when dead. Not only would I have more time to plot his death, but the treaty would be broken and I would have a chance at universal power. This woman is you as you must have concluded. My dear. It is time for you to fall." My heart was racing, all adrenaline has kicked in. He lunged at me with a knife but I jumped out of the way. He managed to catch my shoulder, sending my blood down to the floor. His smile widened at the sight of my wound and lunged again. This time, I wasn't quick enough. I was knocked down to the floor with this monster on top of me. My hands were pushing with all my might against his. The knife was poised above my throat. My strength began to ebb, and my fear grew as the knife neared my throat. The tip of the knife began to pierce the skin when I was sent into unconsciousness, the last I heard was a mighty roar.
  7. Black. Pitch black. Pain. Loneliness. Fear. Grief. This was all I knew. I was sent to a world that was empty, and filled with my tears. I know not what I cried for. I know not what I feared. I don't remember anything. Not even my name. Were was I? Who am I? Am I doomed to this nothingness with only myself as a companion? These questions unanswered?
  8. My eyes opened to a familiar ceiling, where do I know that from? Oh, the room I've been imprisoned in. Slowly, my knowledge and memory came back to me. But that feeling of loneliness and grief had not left me. I do not know why I am feeling these. I groaned and rose to my elbows. I looked to my side and jumped at what I saw. A lion lied there, proud and magnificent besides me. His large green eyes looked at me kindly, but I knew those eyes, they were my eyes. "Hello." He said. I blinked and rubbed my eyes. He merely blinked and made a sound that could have only been a kind of lion chuckle. He stood and yawned, showing his immense and sharp teeth. He settle back down pressed against my leg, and seemingly fell asleep. All feeling of loneliness and and grief left me. Something was taken from deep within me, but it was filled again. I drifted into sleep, for I felt safe somehow with this cat of Majesty.
  9. I woke again to the sound of a menacing growl. My eyes turned to the door and I found Pierre. My lion was growling at him in a seemingly warning manor. I somehow found the confidence to place my hand on him. The great cat turned his eyes to me, and ceased to growl. "What happened?" I whispered, looking at the lion but speaking to Pierre. He sighed and came to kneel at the side of my bed. "When I had finally come back from finding Jared and Katryn, you were completely unconscious, and seriously injured, too close to death. Katryn began to celebrate, thinking you had died, Jared ran off in search of his uncle, and I rushed to you. However, I was cut off by that lion of yours. He was guarding you. I fought him for a couple minutes and realized he was no ordinary animal. This cat was a cat of immense strength and ability. He is your soul Maia. You are a witch. Most witches do not know they are witches until they separate with their souls. A witch can only separate when guided by another witch, or in a moment of incredible danger. Your soul surfaced to save you, and here he is. I now am forever indebted to him, for he has kept you in this world." He finished taking my hand in his. I looked at him astonished, and then to my lion. My, lion.
  10. "You are not indebted to me, for Maia and I are still the same being. We have merely taken two forms." My lion spoke. Pierre bowed his head to him, "Wise words," he paused. "Well we have a problem, you have not yet been named." "You have no name?" I asked him. My lion looked into the distance, then back to us, "It seems I do not." "How do you not know your name?" "Well Maia, I know all that you know, but I also do not know what you do not." I nodded, then turned back to Pierre, "How does he come by his name?" "Well, traditionally, the witch names her soul. It tends to be an ancient name, but not always. The witch knows it deep within herself, and once found, she and her soul both come to enlightenment simultaneously. Thus your soul shall be named." I looked down at my hands and ran names through my mind, but I was getting no where. I closed my eyes and thought hard. After what seemed to be ages, my mind turned blank and numb. I had reached the recesses of my thoughts, a place I had never been. Then, a feeling so tremendous, so pure, so mighty and golden surfaced. I found it, but had no way to put this feeling to a name. My eyes opened and I turned to my lion. He stared at me, I knew he felt the same feeling. Then, together, our voices as one, we said the name. "Sekou." There was a pause and Pierre spoke up, "Fitting of a being so great, and slightly in irony." I looked to Pierre inquisitively. I never heard the name before, but I knew it was right. Did he know more of it? "It is an African name, meaning wise and educated." I looked to my beautiful soul, and the description was right. I took his head in my hands and kissed his nose, as I did so he closed his eyes and began to purr.
  11. There was a knock on the door and Pierre spoke up telling whomever it was to enter. Jared entered. He looked at Sekou and I and looked immensly relieved. "I am thrilled to you see you awake and well Mai. And you as well grand lion." He spoke out. Sekou nodded and told him of his name. Jared smiled and seemed to agree with our choice. "Pierre, I need you to go to your people and issue a warrant for Katryn's arrest. She has escaped. As for my uncle, he has receded into hiding and we cannot find him." I looked at the two of them confused. Pierre sighed and stood to his feet. He took my hand into his and kissed it like a gentleman, "Until next time mon cher." He left the room and I melted a little bit. As much as I hated it, I did have some feelings for my two captors, and that display of kindness and subtle sexiness did not help. When the door closed, Jared pulled clothing out of no where. They were black, fitted. Pants and a long sleeve turtle neck. I turned back to Jared even more confused. "Maia, Sekou, my people are launching into war. It is time I took my throne, and my uncle is not willing to give it. My people are divided in loyalties, and I am not about to put you in the middle of this dangerous game. Pierre does not know it, but I am taking you to Earth. The planet is monitored greatly since your disappearance, the kings will know the moment you arrive. As much as it tears at me, I will give you to them with the knowledge of your safety." I was taken back. I was going home to see Chantou and the rest of them. Home.
  12. I got out of bed and for the first time I noticed that I wore a silky long black nightgown. I looked at Jared accusingly but he threw his hands up. "The maids changed you I swear." I chuckled and pushed him to the door. He winked and instead of opening it, he just floated threw the door. I blinked but shook my head. I turned to Sekou, "Do you think he is watching?" He chuckled, "No. As an animal I am gifted with the ability to sense them, none are in the room." I chuckled and sighed. This was, again, a lot to handle. I changed into the new clothing and found them extremely warm, comfortable, and light weight. I could move like I wore nothing, but have the warm safety of coverage. I knocked on the door slightly and Jared came back through. He gave me black shoes to wear, and a hairband. I ignored the shoes, preferring to go bear foot, and put my hair in a braid. Time to go. "I have my most trusted friends and guards clearing the way for us to pass unseen in both this world and the next." He told me. I nodded, and we were off. He took the front position, while Sekou padded silently behind me. I was slightly amused as Jared banged along while Sekou and I made not a sound. We came to the cave room I first came here in, and I shivered at the frightful memory. Jared turned to me and took my shoulders in his hands. He looked at me with his beautiful blue eyes for a long time, then, he pulled me in, and kissed me. The kiss was gentle, but passionate, drawn out, and absolutely heavenly. He pulled away and took me into a hug. His lips brushed against my ear as he whispered, "I love you Mai, please, oh please come back to me." Something cold and hard was pressed into my hands, and just like that he was gone. I stared into the distance, processing the feeling of loss for a moment. I looked down and in my hands was a perfectly flawless silver orb. It was hollow, but very strong. Sekou came to my side, "Maia, he is not lost, and neither is Pierre. These boys can be found again, but right now, your life is more important. Let us go to Earth, I'd very much like to meet another soul." His reassurance was comforting and my hand laced around his mane and neck. He was too big to fully reach around, but it would do. I smashed the orb to the ground and off we were into a silver portal to Earth.
  13. We surfaced in the foothills of a mountain, under the cover of vast pines. The sun was warm, and it had to be summer, though it may not since I do not know where it is we are. I looked to Sekou who looked around in wonder. "I like it here, all I have known is the cold walls of the underground. This warmth and space suits me greatly." He said with a hint of elation. I smiled, "You and me both." He chuckled and lied down, "I wish to run, stretch my muscles. But Mai, I do wish for you to come. Sit on my back and hold on to my mane, we can go together." I smiled and did as he asked. He was certainly large enough to hold my weight with ease. Once I was settled, he rose and released a roar so tremendous, all life fled from his might. My grin widened and my heart began to race. Sekou leaped forward into a sprint fast and powerful. The pulsating power beneath me and the wind in my hair took my breath away and filled me with adrenaline. I laughed with delight.
  14. Our joy was cut short when a boulder landed in front of us. Sekou did his best to halt, but since this was unexpected, we could not stop. We slammed into the side of the rock and pain shot through my body. When I looked at Sekou, I realized since we share joy, our pain is shared as well. I thud sounded behind me and I turned to see a gargoyle, Pierce. He was furious, and mad with fury, he lunged for Sekou but I got to my lion first, covering him with my body. I was never hit however, I turned to see that Pierce was held back by Sean, his black wings working hard to keep back the stone man. A roar even louder, even more ferocious than Sekou's hit the land surrounding us, and shadow was cast over us. I looked up to see a being so great, so large, it was a dragon. Not just any dragon, but the dragon I knew to be Malcolm. He landed in a graceful but powerful fashion. The pictures I saw earlier had done him no justice however. His scales were lustrous and his muscles moved with such power. His eyes glowed yellow, and his teeth white and so ferocious. The only feature I recognized to be different from the picture was that his appendages did not fade into as deep of a black, but a softer, redder black. He instantly turned into his human self and rushed to me. He swept me into his great arms and kissed the top of my head with sheer joy. He turned to Sekou with angry eyes, but they instantly turned to awe. "Mai, your eyes, they are his eyes." I nodded, "This is Sekou, my soul." His booming laugh filled the woods around us, "Of course! Mai, I always thought you too great to be an ordinary human! A witch is much, much better."
  15. "A witch?" I turned and found myself very close to Sean. I smiled and hugged him. He was very surprised, but hugged me back. I must admit, I was surprised I came up with the confidence as well. Sekou stood and came to my side. He did not show it, but his right shoulder was in immense pain, I knew this simply because I felt it too. Pierce came to the circle as well, now in human form. He bowed and the guilt in his eyes couldn't be covered even with his years and years of practice. Sekou growled, but I put a hand on my lion, hopefully telling him he meant no harm to my soul, he merely did not know. I however could not help but feel slightly fearful, he was strong, they all were, but now I know he has a state of uncontrollable might, this was what scared me. He kept a respectful distance however, one I was grateful for. "Let us bring you home Mai." Malcolm stated softly, warmly. "And let us welcome you to your new home Sekou." Said Sean confidently. Home, oh beautiful home.
