Sanguine My Sister - [Private - KingKivuli and Shadowfax]

[KingKivuli]

Rahks kept up his fight well, his months of training was showing well. While he wasn't making a pile of bodies, his stamana was holding. He was in light armor, something he used all his life. The imperials were clad head to toe in heavy steel and iron laced with silver and it was wearing them out bit by bit. Now was the time to strike. He darted forward and hurled his sword which struck two of the legion. Dashing up and taking his swords back he swung sideways hitting a good few before pummelling the blades into one man at the end


The captain watched as his rage built screaming words You assassins and thieves are just vermon to the world! You steal you lie you cheat you kill all in the name of personal glory! We of the Sun legion are the light to your darkness. We will cast you down and out of this world in the name of the 9 divines you shall not win! By this point Silver was taunting. He took his great silver long sword and charged swinging away only to be blocked Look at you coward hiding behind a cowl show some honor and fight with a face!!! He reached forward and pulled down Silvers mask revealing her

[Shadowfax]

Silver winced as the man pulled down her hood. She felt like her identity had been revealed and for a split second, she had forgotten that Farkus was there behind her. She chanced a glance at him for a moment and when he saw her, his eyes widened with both recognition and anger.

"You....." He said after a few seconds his tone cold like he was addressing a Bandit.

Silver bit her lip awkwardly before turning back to the captain. After all this time, that's all Farkus could manage to say to her. Her lip was bleeding from a cut she had obtained earlier and she looked back at the man with eyes of utter hatred.

"Your little Legion can go to hell. You'll never get rid of us... NEVER! You'll have the honour of being sent to the void by SilverEye" She yelled, rushing forward, blade in hand and the want to kill.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks finished off the remaining troops and turned too see Silver go for the kill. This would be the end to this campaign on Whiterun. For now. Just as Silver got closer however a dying solider reached up and grabbed Silvers leg, pulling her down. The captains eyes beamed in excitement DIIIIIIIIEEEEEE!!!!!! Rahks quickly pulled his bow drew an arrow No you dont you dishonourable filth! He fired and struck the captains hand forcing him to drop the sword before he hit Silver. Rahks looked over and nodded Send his soul to the void Silver!!

[Shadowfax]

Silver rolled out the way to avoid the falling sword and with Rahks voice ringing in her ears, she leapt to her feet and sliced the captains head clean off his shoulders, spattering her face with blood in the process. An eeiree silence took them and Silver looked at Rahks, giving him a smile and a nod of gratitude for saving her head back there. With her blade still in hand, Silver slowly turned to see Farkus standing there, looking at her in awe.

The pair locked eyes for a moment, Silver's eyes shining with tears and Farkus' expression stern, but not uncaring. Neither could speak, and Silver was finding it difficult to turn away. Then she felt it. A stabbing pain in her shoulder. The Nord cried out and collapsed to her knees as an arrow embedded itself in her flesh and nearly came out the other side of her body. Farkus looked around for the attacker.

"You've got some damn nerve" Came Aela's voice.

She was holding her bow, an arrow notched and ready to fire again as she aimed at Silver's head

"Good... to see you too...." Silver managed to say before rolling onto her side in agony.

She had lost too much blood in a short space of time and the dizziness began to make her feel sick. Farkus looked down on her through eyes of stone. She and her comrade had saved his life, but with Silver a wanted criminal and for bringing dishonor to the companions, he was struggling to find any gratitude.

"You gonna try and kill me?" Silver mocked Aela.

"Im not going to try. I AM going to kill you" Aela growled.

Silver's eyes clouded over. Was she really going to die right here? What would happen to Astrid? The Brotherhood? The Sun Legion, her daughter? She couldn't die yet.

"No. These two saved my skin. Let her die from her wounds, she won't last long with that arrow in her shoulder" Farkus remarked, now looking away from his wife.

"Farkus" Silver began.

This time however, Farkus rounded on her and placed his sword under her throat, just like she had done to him three years ago. Silver felt so vulnerable in that moment and so powerless that she wanted to crawl away and hide.

"Don't... Just.... don't" He said, punching her in the side of the face giving her yet another swollen cheek.

"I wouldn't stay with this one long. She has a habit of breaking your heart and abandoning her friends" Farkus called to Rahks.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks came forward lowering his hood and removing his mask Then do tell why she hasn't abandoned me but stuck with me through what has been a few days of oblivion. I trust her, Farkus, with my life. I can understand your rage, I can understand why you want to draw blood. However, being side by side with Silver, she does not kill for the Brotherhood out of the love of just killing. With every life taken she has rid this land of a true filth and burden. To protect it. All the while her heart is still in this town with you, with the Companions. Once more, you have just seen it yourself. Who here battled with honor? Me and Silver? or this legion captian? We do not raise our blades till they must be risen

[Shadowfax]

Silver could hear Rahks talking, but what he was saying she had no idea for she was drifting in and out of consciousness the whole time. Her breathing had become very laboured and the pain in her shoulder was severe now she winced everytime she took a deep breath. Not to mention the shivering.

Farkus looked down on her like a man would look at a piece of dirt he was about to step on. When Rahks mentioned about her having no joy of killing and that her heart was still with the companions, the man laughed and looked down at her once more before looking back at the khajit.

"She has no honor, or feelings. She's a liar, a traitor and a lousy mother" Farkus spat.

Aela slowly pulled her hand back again so that she was aiming the arrow at Silver once again.

Silver however had managed to get enough strength together to pull off her blood stained gauntlet. There on her left hand sat the ring Farkus had given her, six years ago back in a snowstorm when they had taken refuge in a cave. The silver wolf, with the diamond eyes was still there and this made Farkus look on with more confusion.

"Get her out of my sight" He told Rahks.

"Farkus.... Aela... we must.... help each.. other this time...... the... they are too strong" Silver struggled between breaths.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks stepped forward and pulled Farkus up off Silver looking him dead in the eye Out of your sight? Forget everything else that Silver is for one moment. She just stood before a battalion and dared risk her life for you, a battalion of soldiers who have taken an oath to slay her, me and people like you. They have already begun their campaign. Yet did Silver stay back? Did she cower in fear? No she stepped up and took a risk for what she believed was right, for what she loved. Yet all you can say is to get her away. I thought you Companions had honor, had respect, no matter who the person was, especially you wolf. Now if you will excuse me, I am taking my friend to the temple for healing

Rahks went to Silvers right side, the side not shot. He knelt down wrapping her arm round her neck and then lifted her up. He proceeded to walk past both Farkus and Aela without looking at them and headed towards the Dragons Reach. While he did not know the town, he knew most temples would be near keeps. Sure enough it was. In a small garden to the left there was a small temple and Rahks headed towards it. He entered slowly and spoke in a soft tone My friend is in need of healing, I would appreciate the help He lay her down on a bench and let the priests near, leaving a regeneration potion for them to use. He stood back and watched

[Shadowfax]

Farkus had no argument when Rahk's challenged him. He stood there blinking stupidly and watched without interfering as Rahk's went to help Silver. Aela slowly lowered her bow and sighed with either annoyance or defeat.

As Rahk's got her to her feet, Silver moaned with agony as the pain began to shoot through her whole body. She grit her teeth and allowed Rahks to support her weight and take her away. She caught Farkus' eye as she passed him and a bloody tear rolled down her cheek. She had no idea where Rahks was taking her, but she didn't protest and soon she found herself at the doors of a temple.

"T-Thank.. you.." Silver managed to say as Rahk's settled her down on the benches.

Outside back in the streets of Windhelm, Farkus and Aela watched the two leave them and looked on in confusion and curiosity. Farkus took a step forward then.

"Farkus, don't! You can't let her get to you again... She betrayed us and would do it again" Aela called, causing him to freeze in his tracks.

"I KNOW!" Farkus yelled. He was usually very careful with Aela and what he said to her, but he was so confused at the moment he wasn't thinking clearly.

"The Khajit was right though. She did save me and they are right about this Sun Legion hating us. We should find out more and... I want to talk to her"

Aela frowned and threw her bow back over her shoulder.

"Fine. But she's a traitor and a murderer. She isn't being forgiven for her crimes" Aela said stubbornly and together they headed towards the temple.

[KingKivuli]

Meanwhile in the temple the priest were already finishing off. Silvers wounds were bandaged up and she was given the potion. One of the priests approached Rahks Your friend will be fine, its nothing more that some bad blood loss, she will recover fast with that potion as well Rahks nodded towards him and smiled You have my thanks. Here take this, use it to help others in need Rahks handed over the gold he took back from the inn. The priest smiled and walked off

Rahks looked over to Silver. He was glad she was ok but she needed a little time to rest at least. He went to the door and stepped out. The air was cool with the light snow, not something Rahks minded, his fur kept him warm, and with the battle it was refreshing. Moments later however he saw Farkus and Aela heading towards the temple. Rahks stepped forward and faced Farkus again She is already patched up and resting. I have taken care of a donation in order of thanks

[Shadowfax]

"Right" Farkus said, trying not to show he cared, but he knew deep down he hated seeing Silver looking so weak and injured.

Aela placed her hands on her hips and stared at Rahks, whilst Farkus looked behind the Khajit to the large temple doors. Was Silver going to be ok? And would he be able to bring himself to talk to her? So many questions ran through his head that Aela was the one who spoke to Rahk's next.

"I hope you know what you're doing with that one. Now tell me... I want to know about this Sun Legion and what we are up against"

"Not out here... Too many people will be listening" Farkus told his fellow companion.
