Sanguine My Sister - [Private - KingKivuli and Shadowfax]

[KingKivuli]

Rahks headed out with Silver and mounted their horses once more, riding back to the Sanctuary Even if she likes it or not, Astrid wont stop us from pushing on with this mission, we have to keep going forward It was noon when they arrived at the Brotherhood. Rahks swiftly dismounted and headed straight inside, and down the stairs into the depths

[Shadowfax]

Silver followed Rahks down the steps and into the sanctuary. She was worried about how Astrid was going to react when she told her this news of the Emporer. When she looked up, Astrid was standing infront of her, arms folded. She was still feeling guilty after their last encounter, but Astrid didn't seem bothered at the moment.

"Well, what did he have to say?!" She asked

"He.... Want's us to kill the emporer" Silver said as if in some sort of trance.

Astrid rolled her eyes and looked to Rahks.

"Ok... What does he really want?"

[KingKivuli]

Rahks walked into the middle of the room and stood firm As Silver said. Kill the Emperor. Kill him we end the Legion and get payed. Don't believe me then here is the parchment with all the details on how and where we do it Rahks handed over the sealed note and stood back Sounds like the best things possible for us to do if you ask me

[Shadowfax]

Astrid took the parchment off Rahks and read through it carefully. Her expression changed when she got to the bottom of the note and looked up at the other two in horror.

"So he's serious. He wants us to kill the emperor?" Astrid said, a manic smirk spreading across her face now.

Silver caught this and felt worry fill her. Astrid had taken this well... But that also filled her with doubt and worry. She would be reckless and could end up getting herself killed if she wasn't careful.

"Yes. He is the one who ordered the Sun Legion and is dangerous-"

"But he will learn to fear us. The Dark Brotherhood... Kill the emperor... It's the boost and recognition oppotuniry we need!" Astrid said, turning away from them now. Her shoulders were shaking and she began to laugh manically.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks looked at the brotherhood leader in sheer shock, not believing his eyes or ears. She had lost her mind, and her actions were driving Rahks over the edge. He stepped forward placing a hand on her shoulder spinning Astrid around, then without hesitation headbutted her to the floor You blind stupid girl, this is more than the Brotherhood, more than the thieves. These men and women are out to ride the land of all of us! Get a grip and grow up, see the bigger picture

[Shadowfax]

Astrid didn't have time to react to the sudden pain that hit her forehead. She stumbled back onto the floor and felt her vision blur for a moment. Rahks words went right through her as she stood up and she looked like she was going to chop his head off there and then. That was when SilverEye intervened and stood between the pair.

"I thought I told you Khajit... I am the leader of this Sanctuary... My word is law" Astrid went on.

"It is Astrid and you are the leader, but calm down... This is a good opportunity yes, but we need to think our moves through carefully or else we could all get killed"

"STOP TALKING TO ME LIKE I AM A FOOL SILVER!" Astrid said.

"Astrid.... I never said that, nor meant to make you feel like a fool" Silver said heaving a sigh as if feeling exhausted by her attitude. "Both of you need to calm down"

[KingKivuli]

Rahks backed down. He was not part of the Brotherhood so would never follow orders, however his respect for Silver forced his hand Very well Silver. As for you Astrid, we can to share this information out of some form of friendship and trust. I can see now that was a mistake. Either way, me and Silver are doing this job, not for the sake of you stupid Brotherhood, but the sake of the whole of Skyrim

Rahks turned to leave when a sudden scent hit is nose. Sniffing slightly he looked round for the familiar scent. He found it, on wall near the stairs, a fresh blood stain. He looked and inspected it closely This is recent. What has happened here, who is hurt?

[Shadowfax]

Silver sighed and looked down at Astrid who was looking like she wanted to kill Rahks. She locked eyes with her sister for a moment and desperately tried to tell her through her expression to stand down. When Rahks noticed the blood stain however, Silver was relieved for the change in topic and Astrid suddenly looked concerned for her family.

"I don't know..." She said, examining the wall closely.

"Split up and look for the culprit!" Silver said alarmed and with that she ran off into the Sanctuary.

When she arrived in the main hall of the Sanctuary, she saw a familiar figure sprawled on the floor with blood leaking out of his side. Instantly she dropped the sword with a loud clatter and rushed to Veezara's side.

"What happened?!" Silver asked, alarmed at the scene before her.

[KingKivuli]

Rahks began to search around before he heard Astrid calling out at someone. He followed her voice, only to see an Argonian laying on the floor wounded. Rahks could not help but smirk a little, has he had no real love of Argonians. Veezara leant back against the wall and coughed slightly That damned fool.. he began spouting choas as soon as Silver, and this darn cat, left. I tried to confront him and he struck me. Ajborn gave chase when he fled. He was yelling about the old Dawnstar sanctuary

Rahks smirked for a moment longer before his expression changed to something more serious Looks like we got some more hunting to do then He knelt down to the Argonian Maybe the lizard here would be better served curled in a cave hehe Veezara actually smirked Thats not a bad plan.. even from a cat. Just get the crazy fool

[Shadowfax]

Silver began to bandage the wound, applying pressure to it at the same time so as to stop the bleeding. Astrids eyes widened with horror when Veezara informed them that Anjborn had fled.

"Damn that fool to the void" Astrid snarled, clenching her fists and turning on her heel.

Silver was on her feet as soon as she saw Astrid flee. She caught up to her sister as she was about to walk up the stairs. Silver grabbed Astrids wrist and pulled her to a halt. She looked her head in the eyes as she span round to yell at her.

"Let go Silver! I need to go to him!"

"Astrid.. I'll go. Your needed here to keep order in the Sanctuary and if the fool is to return.. You should be the one to deal with him" Silver said.

Astrids eyes softened and she looked away for a moment before looking back at SilverEye.

"Rahks and I will get Anjborn.... The leader should stay here. Your presence will give them strength and order. See to your people" Silver urged her.

Finally, the leader nodded and embraced her sister in a hug. Silver hugged her back and when they pulled away both nodded at one another in understanding.

"I'll save him" Silver assured her.

Astrid turned down the stairs and caught Rahks eye for a moment. No words passed between them and after a while she walked past him.

"Make haste" She told the khajit.
