Hail prince Enzo

[mrsguppiepants]

Eli nodded, "Somewhat. My older brother and I would always fight. I've been trained, but I'm definitely not as good as him."


Violet didn't want to answer but she did after Eli, "I don't know how to fight. All my life I've just been protected my guards and stuff. I'm pretty sure I could pick up on it fast though, I watched my guards fight people a lot."

 

[EvanAllMighty]

Enzo


"you don't need to be as good as your brother, you need to be as good as the idiots who've taken us." he said to Eli and then to violet he says "well then lesson number one, go for the eyes, templels, throat, stomach and groin. Fight dirty if you can... Bite, scratch, throw sand in their eyes..." he cut himself off as he glanced at Rogue who was silently shushing him.


Someone was coming

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Violet looked over at the direction where Rogue's eyes were pointed. She instantly got silent. Her breathing even got quieter.


Inside Eli started to panic. What was going to happen... Especially since they got out of their binds...?

 

[EvanAllMighty]

Rogue stepped back from the door as a large man appeared and Enzo instantly took her place by the door as a large man stepped into view.


"did I hear the whisperings of a plan? The dealing out of strengths?" he asked "I do hate my prisoners making plans... I fear I should have to end that." he looked pointedly at Enzo. "who shall I make an example of?"

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Violet sat quietly in the back corner. She wanted to be as far away from this man as possible.


Eli, for some unknown reason, piped up. "No, it wasn't like that..." He has to think of something fast, "We were just getting to know each other. Trying to figure out why we're here."

 

[EvanAllMighty]

"are you volenteering boy? I hear your grace is music, maybe your screams will be as musical as your voice." said the man his voice sounding as gleeful as a boy when talking about torture


"no." Enzo spoke calmly, clearly, with the voice of the king he was ment to be "no, not he nor the girls are to be touched. If we are to partake in your sick games let it be me. I am the eldest and take full responsibility for what happens in this cell."


"very good" was the only thing the man had to say to that as he opened the door for Enzo, who after a moments hesatation stepped through it, and then slammed the door again locking the other three back in the cell. Enzo was shoved roughly out of sight.

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Eli instantly regretted saying anything. "I'm so sorry," He whispered, basically to himself. He ran to the front of the cell and clenched the bars with his hands as he watched Enzo get pushed around and quickly out of sight.


"What do you think is going to happen to him..." Violet whispered in horror and disbelief.

 

[EvanAllMighty]

"they won't kill him if that's any comfort. He's too important a gambling piece." she said from behind them "would be better for your own piece of mind not to think on it too hard

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Violet and Eli both say in silence for the rest of the time. Neither of them had anything more to say. And none of them really had anything to do. Until Violet peeped up, bored out of her mind, she asked, "What can we do in the meantime?"

 

[EvanAllMighty]

"Music is usually a good spirit lifter.." Rogue offered. She knew volite wanted to hear Eli sing and secretly so did she although if asked she would deny it. Rogue stayed close to the door to watch for Enzo's return

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Eli gulped. "Oh alright. What do you wanna hear? I probably know anything and if I don't know it I can pick up on it pretty fast."

 

[EvanAllMighty]

"do you know a song called Come Monday by Jimmy Buffet?" rogue asked. (sorry about my weird timings recently I'm at the state fair untill Tuesday)

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Violet's eyes widened in excitement. She knew the song really well and she hoped he could sing it.


Eli nodded, "A little bit..." He concentrated trying to remember how the song went, "How does it go again?"

 

[EvanAllMighty]

"come Monday it will all be alright come Monday I'll be holding you tight I've spent four lonely day in a brown ugly haze and I just want you back by my side" Rogue recited the chouris stumbling with the melody with it she ended up just saying the words

 

[mrsguppiepants]

The light bulb went off in Eli's head. He knew the song right away without any trouble after she refreshed his memory. He started singing and he couldn't help but smile. He really loved to make music, any kind of music.


Violet was amazed by Eli's beautiful voice. She'd never heard someone sing so well, but she figured that was just because of his grace. It was still very enjoyable and relaxing to listen to. A smile glided across her face as she laid on the ground and closed her eyes to concentrate.

 

[EvanAllMighty]

By the time Eli was done singing Enzo was outside their cage door again and in much worse condition. One of his eyes has already swelled shut and there was barely a patch of normal colored skin and what skin wasn't dis colored was covered with blood. He was limping severely and fell to the ground when pushed into the cell. Rogue was on him right away with soothing nonsense words as she gently poked and prodded him to see if any bones were broken. "Violet? Can you hold his head please."

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Violet nodded and rushed over to help Rogue. Violet was horrified. She help Enzo's head as Rogue examined him.


"Is... he okay?" Eli asked quietly. He did not expect it to be that bad.

 

[EvanAllMighty]

Rogue double checked his legs before she answered "he's a strong man. He can take a few hits... And it looks worse than it is, nothing is broken. He could use some stitches though..." rogue thought for a moment and had an idea "Eli? Do you know any Lienid lullabies?"

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Eli's eyebrows raised as he nodded, "Yea, I do actually. Why?"


Violet sat back, out of the way. She figured she would be of help if needed. If not, she'd just be there, causing no trouble whatsoever. She figured she had to play nice, considering the situation she ended up in.

 

[EvanAllMighty]

"a few reasons actually." rogue admitted "one is it would be something from his home. Two if we can get him to to sleep and stay asleep we can work more with his cuts. And my aunt works alot in the infirmary back home and she says people who sleep more heal faster than people who don't..."

 

[mrsguppiepants]

"Okay. Makes sense. Which one should I sing?" Eli asked. He wanted to be as helpful as possible.

 

[EvanAllMighty]

"whichever one you know best." she replied

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Eli started to sing one of the Lienid lullabies quietly. He didn't want kidnappers to hear and beat him up too. Even though he was in a awful situation, he still couldn't help but smile when he sang.


Violet was laying on the hard floor now. Once Eli started singing, she closed her eyes to concentrate, but soon started dozing off. She didn't want this to be real. She wished she could wake up from this horrible dream, but she knew it was reality.

 

[EvanAllMighty]

Rogue sat for a minute just listing to Eli sing as Enzo drifted off into a deep sleep. She thought Eli was a wonderful singer and wished for herself to have a simpler grace like his when she too nearly fell asleep.

 

[mrsguppiepants]

Eli kept singing as he watched the others doze off. It made him happy to think his music could do that and even happier since him and his cell mates were in a very stressful situation. Relaxing and sleep would probably be one of the best things for them. Eventually he stopped singing and started to fall asleep himself.
