[PT | F21 | PP] The Return of the King | <<Betrayal of the King>>

Betrayal of the King

The twenty-first. How long ago it had been opened to them, Aoi couldn’t quite say. The frontlines seemed to ebb and flow with their progress, and though she’d continued her own training and advancement, she’d still fallen short of joining the continuous upwards press that would allow them to break free of the world of Aincrad. Not without her own efforts placed, of course. She had been working as hard as she could – but where others had quickly surged to the forefront of it all, Aoi had lagged behind.

’Your information had been be good, Cervais…’ Aoi mumbled under her breath as she stepped off the teleporter pad and down into the settlement of Tomoika proper. The moment she had done so, the alert – a notice which bespoke of the Betrayal of the King – appeared before her. Almost instantly she accepted the quest, a smile flickering across her face as she checked her equipment once more. Crossbow, vambrace quiver and her thigh holsters of various goods and items were all where they should be, and Aoi nodded in satisfaction.

Turning aside from the entryway, she began making her way towards a nearby exit – only to be stopped by a pair of large individuals who bore an aura of ill will. Aoi glanced up towards their faces – two men, taller than her by a good quarter metre, and built as if they were designed to be warriors – with a look that bespoke annoyance, but a willingness to listen. She shifted her weight slightly, allowing her hip to stick out on the left side like many men seemed to enjoy. When she spoke, her voice took on a soft, lilting tone – as if trying to sound seductive and dangerous at the same time. ’My apologies, did I interrupt something important? I was only trying to make my way through here quickly.’

’We saw you accept that quest. The Forgotten King…it’s a dangerous one. And from the looks of you, you need some help…help that we can provide.’ The grin on the man’s face told Aoi that any help they were offering was likely best avoided – though from their stance and posture, she knew that any denial could prove as fatal as attempting the boss on her own. Indecision flittered across her face briefly as she contemplated her options, her eyes darting around quickly as she took in the bustling area around them.

Tomoika had many, many shadows.  More shadows than light, as any of its denizens might readily confirm, and each of them held perils better suited to the confines of infinite night.  Yet, Tomoika brimmed and bustled with life all the same, even if a majority share of it wasn't always the most prim and proper, or even legal.  It also tended to attract the seedier specimens of Aincrad's varied player base.  Freyd spent many a moon here, or would if it actually one to see.  Point was, it was very much fitting his niche and his needs, both in gathering information and dolling out a little unsanctioned justice when people took thing s a little too far.  And the side tunnels had long been ideal for grinding.  So much grinding.

But today's visit was different, and also completely unplanned. As tides of Spectral Knights rose, swarming across every floor from the twenty-ninth down, he'd been crazily busy fending off the damned things only to watch a second one spawn from the tiniest fragments of another.  

While accustomed to slipping between shadows, this had to be the first time he'd been forcibly thrown through one against his will, and was more than a little disturbing. Manifesting behind a stack of water barrels neatly tucked against the side of city's main, but narrow, thoroughfare, all became splinters, water jets and the stray dregs of dead mobs that had followed him through the void.  Both hooligans accosting Sakura were swept back and slammed against the far wall cursing in soggy surprise and the reckless audacity of what they deemed the most unwise of pranks.

Freyd, meanwhile, black armor and cowl soaked head to toe and covered in a layer of floor twenty-nine grit and debris, stumbled back to his feet with grumbling surprise.

"What?  Tomoika?!  How did I end up... oh.  uh..."  Blue eyes blinked realizing the startled woman before him was staring.  "Sorry.  Did I interrupt something?"

The explosion of wood and watery substance blew the two men away from her, leaving them sprawling on the ground for mere seconds before the leapt to their feet in anger. Aoi could see the shadow covered man standing before her, his figure confusing and somehow confused at the same moment. She tilted her head in confusion slightly, her expression likely showing the same lack of understanding before something clicked within her. The question broke through her mind fog, and she sudden smirked as she turned towards the two men who had accosted her mere seconds before.

’Now, friends. You were mentioning about needing help…you see, I picked up this unique summoning skill not too long ago. It allows me to summon powerful entities from the ether and bring them to my position – regardless of where they were.’ She flicked a look towards the hooded man, who was anything but a figure she had summoned. Still, she knew that if she could play it off well enough, she might be able to save her own hide in the future with a simple lie. ’Now, I’m not suggesting that he’ll be able to end you here and now…but I’m also not suggesting that he can’t hunt you down later. Isn’t that right, Akomdeus?’

Another grin spread across her face as she turned back to the two men, seeing the confusion, doubt and a mixture of growing fear in their faces as she continued talking. Now, she knew, was the moment where she could make or break the lie – entirely dependant upon how the man who had suddenly appeared reacted. ’I was going to face the Forgotten King by myself, but now that you’ve gone and made me summon him, perhaps I’ll simply have Akmodeus obliterate you two, and then the King for me in turn. What do you say boys, do you want to stick around and see how real power is handled?’

Picking up on the scam without missing a beat, Freyd instantly loved the girl's raw balls and balderdash playing circumstance for advantage.  She'd catch sight of a momentary grin as his features folded inward beneath his cowl, form suddenly swelling in size by the height of two heads as his hood turned in best Nazghul fashion towards the two prone thugs.  Overhead, his green icon crumbled, vanishing as if it were but a veneer, a pretense to facilitate passage among mere mortals unworthy of serving as anything more than fodder for the void.  

"Are these the ones you promised?" The voice was hollow and distant, as if the umbral cloud beneath its swollen hood were a portal to a place players would never, ever wish to approach.  Tilting his head sideways, like a great cat evaluating a potential meal, the heavy thud of armor cloaked in roiling shadows echoed off the cobblestone.  "They seem... soiled..."  Sniffing sounds creepily added to the looming figure's menace, both men's pants instantly confirming the assert before, eyes wide, they ran screaming like a pair of frightened little girls.  Freyd just chuckled.

"Akomdeus, eh?  Where'd you pull that one from?" His form slowly shrunk back to normal, cursor returning from the netherworld to re-establish his adopted player identity.  It wasn't often he got to cut loose like that.

"Freyd," he offered, by way of introduction.  "And that was very well played."

[Sakura 0]

’Ha! Look at them run!’ Aoi grinned in a mixture of glee, and pure shock at the entire situation coming to an end. She’d been certain that the newcomer, or the two players who had been accosting her would see through the lie, and everything would shatter. Instead, it had worked like a charm.

’Oh…uhm…it was the name of a…err…fan…that I had back when I was streaming games. Before all of this.’ She shifted awkwardly on the spot as she turned back towards the man that had returned to his regular appearance. Her eyes shifted over him, trying to figure out how the change had come to be, before remembering her place and bowing deeply. ’My apologies for pulling you into that, by the way. It just so happened that you appeared at the right instance and…I’d heard about players like that, drawing lower level players out into danger…or waiting for them outside the gates of a safe zone if they rejected going with them…’

She stood up from the bow as he introduced himself, her face lighting a soft reddish hue as he complimented her efforts. Giving another small bow – this time just her head dipping slightly – she smirked and returned the introduction. ’Ao-ah…I mean my name’s Sakura. It’s a pleasure to meet you.’

She turned towards the street that the pair had raced down, sighing softly. She’d scared them off for the moment, but…

’Apologies again for getting you involved, but would you happen to be able to escort me just beyond the city limits? I’m heading to hunt down the Forgotten…Time King? I think that’s what it was called…’

[Freyd 0]

A snort and chortle at how improv played itself out and her explanation for it, Freyd simply smiled and shook his head with jovial disbelief.

“Call it dumb luck, when it comes to my arrival. I was upstairs when things went sideways.  By the time I righted, life spilled me out here instead.” 

Blue screens popped at his periphery and the man breathed a sigh of relief.  The rest of his agents had made it out safely, even felling the Spectral Knight they’d engaged before his unplanned departure.

“Oh, you’re going up again Steve?”  Head swiveling about, Freyd wondered whether he’d somehow missed the rest of her party of accidentally swept them away while barreling in.  “Uh.. alone?”

A few had done it, himself included, but the mob was no slouch and still carried a reputation as the toughest in Aincrad. Much as its name implied, that status had long since passed to others, but that hardly made it less potentially lethal.

“Err.. you know what?  I’ve been a little worried about what these Spectral Knight thingies might do if they sunk their shoots into a field or quest boss.  I’m sure you’d make ample plans and taken precautions to handle it yourself, but why don’t we just visit my old friend together and see if he still spills his undead guts like he used to?”

[Sakura 0]

Aoi shifted on her feet, suddenly uncomfortable at the man’s quick agreement to assist her, or in the obvious case of his appearance and capabilities, likely carry her through what would have been a very dangerous fight. She’d considered facing the King alone, but her plan had been to recruit a party – originally.

’Well, I…was going to try and find…someone who was going, though I hadn’t expected that someone to splash into existence at my feet, so to speak. I wouldn’t want to cause any trouble though, so I completely understand if you have more important things to take care of…’ Her right foot’s boot tip lightly tapped the ground as she shifted her form into an apologetic appearance, her eyes downcast in a mannerism of humility. It wasn’t entirely an act, though Aoi would have been lying if she’d said she wasn’t playing up her reaction ever so slightly. ’If you’re will to help me out, though, I’ll find a way to repay you one day. I can promise you that.’

It wasn’t much to offer, but with it, she turned and began heading towards the exit. Whether he followed or not, she would now have to go face the King without any other support – though, his behaviours thus far made her think he’d be right alongside her the entire way. City streets rolled past, eventually replaced by open cavern tunnels and pathways leading to places she’d never seen before. She followed it to her destination, moving just quick enough to allow the time to pass briefly, before stopping in front of the gates leading into what was likely some King’s Court.

’Right…now just…don’t show him fear, and everything will be fine. It’ll all be fine. I’m not scared. You’re scared…’ She mumbled to herself as she triple checked the hand crossbow attached to her vambrace, confirming the bandolier upon it was loaded with her excess bolts. Hardening her expression, she reached up and pushed open the doors with both hands, grinning suddenly as she stepped inside. ’Ohhhh Steevie! Hereeeee’s Johnny!’

Matching point, Freyd blitzed into the throne room nearly as fast as Sakura's dart, sword slicing across the seated monarch's chest before the mob could even stand.  Sent sprawling, the king dry heaevd what must have been meant as indignation for such poor manners.

"Ye, ye... It's nice to see you too, old man."

Veritas' black blade clashed against the undead's massive rust-stained battle axe as the two engaged in a heavily mobile melee that wove freely about the court's ample space.  'Steve's' heavier blows were slower and staccato, setting an easier pace and rhythm to dodge around, even in Freyd's bulkier armor.  Familiarity with this oft-repeated performance gave the Whisper added advantage, his blade biting deeper than during their earliest meetings, so many moons before.

"You're getting sloppy in your old age," the King grunted, mocking his foe's greying features, but unable to capitalize against the Whisper's more agile defenses.

"Since you insist on disturbing my rest, why not come closer so that Betrayal and I can thank you properly..."

Aoi blinked. Twice. The movement had been so fast that she wasn’t sure which struck first, the small bolt from her crossbow, or the sword in Freyd’s hand. What little damage she’d done – she’d seen her bolt impact the form of the King, but other than leaving a dent in its figure that was imperceptible if one didn’t know where to look for it, she’d essentially left nothing upon its existence. Not even a scratch.

The same could not be said for Freyd’s attack. The sword had torn into and through the King, leaving a chunk missing – from its figure, and the health bars above its head. The entire three seconds it had taken – if it had even been that long – left Aoi standing in a small measure of shock and surprise. Breaths passed between her teeth as her mind reeled, and when she did move once more, it was to speak in a meek voice that squeaked into the room from the doorway she’d come to a stop within. ’I’m…here too…’

Her face flashed red and she reloaded the crossbow on her vambrace, the action becoming smoother every time she used the weapon. Lifting her right arm, she angled the spread hand to aim using the area just between thumb and forefinger, aligning it as best she could before snapping her wrist back and yanking on the cord that triggered the firing mechanism.

A bolt thunked loudly into the right side of the king's crown, knocking it askew and drawing his skeletal gaze towards Sekura.  Eyes flaring red were spent spinning an instant later as Freyd armored gauntlet smashed against the far jawbone and spun the undead's skull full round to rest back facing the Whisper, the red spheres within still rebounding within their sockets.

"HEY!  Focus, dumbass.  We're doing a thing here!"  Freyd's scowl broke to give his partner an outstretched thumbs up without breaking gaze with his enemy, crediting her for a beauty shot.

Steve roared... more like croaked in a raspy-needing-dusting sort of way, actually, leaning over the Whisper as if to intimidate.  It came as a complete surprise to the mob when a flash of upward black clove its right arm from its body, the bones crumbling and weapon held clattering to the ground to the clang of utter disappointment.

We used to be somebody, you could practically hear it thinking to itself.

Red eyes winking in the absence of eye lids, the Forgotten Time King paused, stunned by the embarrassment despite overt immunity, then shoved the black knight back while awkwardly reclaiming its weapon with its lone remaining arm.
