Part 2: Heart of stone, tears of blood

Smiling he returned to sorting the papers. The ice had shattered. The vampire placed them into piles for each area.The papers were stacked neatly.

After 2 hours, they were done, "Phew, finely." Sprite said as she dropped the quill and leaned back in the chair, she heard a tapping sound on the window, "What's that?" she asked at she looked towards the closed window.

Makai saw a bat at the window. Opening the bat flew onto his shoulder. It began to chatter into his ear. he frowned, "Fly back and tell my brother i'm on it." The bat flew off heading back to Kagirinai.

"Getting Brianne from a portal at the prison fort?" Sprite said as she stood next to him, looking up. She didn't understand what the bat said but she read it's mind.

Makai smiled at SPrite, 'Of course. Want to join me on this adventure?" he gave a short chuckle. His hands by his sides. He was already geared up for battle.

'I would but I think it would be safer if I stayed here." Sprite said to him looking out the window.

Makai nodded. he patted the girl on the head, 'Stay safe." Wings sprouted from his back. he took off into the ngiht heading towards the fort.

"I don't care if he is the head guard, he has to pay the toll if he wants his son out." Nick said to a guard at the fort, the guard bowed, "Yes captain." then left. Nick sighed, "I hate this." He mumbled to himself then walked about outside.

Makai landed at the fort. His wings followed. His eyes narrowed. His eyes glowing. he needed to find Brianne.

Nick saw something, "Who's there?" He took out his sword as he walked over to want ever landed.

Makai stared at nick with a blank expression, 'It's me moron." He had a hand on one of his blades, "Put your sword away."

"Oh it's you." He said as he put away his sword, "What are you doing here?" Nick crossed his arms.

Makai stared at nick, "I'm here to pick up Brianne." His voice cold and emotionless. His face blank. he had put on his game face. he was serious and not in the mood.

Nick blinked, "She is here?" then glared, "This must be a trick, there is no way she is here."

Makai shrugged his shoulders, 'Yes well im only here because this is where mastermind said she was. Now move. I don't care if i have to destroy this entire fort just to find her."

"You will do no such thing, if you destroy the fort then chaos will unsure." He said in an angry tone, "I have no problem with you looking for her here but you will not destroy the fort."

Makai tsked at him, 'Fine what ever. Just don't get in my way." Makai was not in the mood.

"Very well but you can not go into my office or any of the bedrooms." Nick said then left.

Makai sniffed the air. he searched for Brianne's scent. he walked through the fort heading in a single direction. His eyes scanning straight ahead. he had a hand on one of his katana.

"Nick, where are you?" Gavin was trying to find Nick, he found something odd in the court yard. (You didn't meet Gavin yet, he had dark orange hair and brown eyes. He is 2nd in command and Nick's friend) Gavin scratched his head, "Just like him, always disappearing." Gavin turned the corner and bumped into someone.

Makai watched as someone bumped into him. he stood tall. he stared down at the person. he towered over them. Then again he towered over everyone. he stared with a blank expression. Murderous intent hung form his body filling the air. The temperature had dropped rapidly. He wasn't in the mood he just wanted to find brianne.

"Oy, I am sorry." Gavin said as he stood up, "Have you seen Nick? I found something in the court yard. It looks like a portal or something." Gavin said as he looked up at the man.

Makai's eyes widened as the man said something about a portal. His hand came up drawing his tengoku. His blade was against the mans throat. His other at the back of his neck, "Show me this portal!" His eyes glowed, "NOW!" His voice had turned demonic.

Gaven glared at the man as he held the blade to his throat, "Hey, take it easy. I'll show you it but get that blade away from my neck." Gavin said as he stepped back a bit.

Makai removed his blades but still had them drawn, "Then show me!" He hissed baring his fangs at the man.
