By Shadow of Arashi

Chapter 3:

Rowen didn�t even bother to stop for breath as he ran across the large room to find Ryo. He had finally arrived back at the castle and was now searching for Ryo. He had to tell his king what he had learned. Passing next to Cale�s room, he stopped as he thought he heard voices inside.

Rowen hated to spy, but couldn�t help himself. He was curious especially after listening to that green-haired man at the bar, and he couldn�t let any possible hints escape him. He just had to be very careful not to get caught spying.

That thought firmly in mind, Rowen ped ped closer toward the counsellor�s room and stopped dead when he noticed the door was ajar.

Smirking at such a careless attitude from Cale, he thought, /that man is too self-confident for his own good./ Rowen decided to use Cale�s lapse of emenement to his advantage as he peered cautiously into the room. His midnight blue eyes widening in anger when he saw Cale talking to Dais.

Sage was also there, sitting silent in a corner of the room. Rowen couldn�t see his face since it was hidden behind his blonde hair, but he could tell the blonde seemed ill at ease. His whole body was tense and he refused to look toward the two others men�s direction.

"So is everything going on as planned Dais?"

"Yes sir. Sage has already placed the king under his spell. The poor boy won�t know what hit him. He is so obsessed with my slave that he can�t even think straight anymore. The fool even threw away his friend�s help. Actually the blue-haired boy, Rowen, is the only I�m worried about. He seem be be wary of Sage."

"That�s not a problem. I will deal with it in time. For now just be sure that your whore does his job tonight. I want to get rid of the king as soon as possible so I can finally rule this kingdom. Then you will be paid and can do whatever you want for all I care."

"Yes, my lord."

Dais said with a bow. He then made his way to leave the room and Rowen hastily backed away from the door. But unluckily for the boy, he wasn�t fast enough and Dais saw him.

"Hey! That little bastard! Catch him before he escapes!"

Rowen felt his blood turn to ice in his veins as he started to run, rightfully afraid for his life. Cale didn�t let him have that chance though as he rushed out of his room and managed to catch him before he got too far. Rowen started to scream and kick at the stronger man who was dragging him back into his room, all the while trying to escape.

"Letgo, go, you evil son of a bitch! You traitor! I swear I�m going to kill you!"

"I highly doubt that you can do that in your situation, my boy. Right now, you are the one who is going to die,"

Cale said in a frighteningly cold tone.

Rowen gulped, feeling even more scared. He noticed that Dais was looking rather furious and also a little worried about this new turn of events. The blonde for his part had finally raised his head and was giving him a look so full of sw anw and fear that he almost forgot that he was the one in trouble.

"We have to get rid of him Cale. We can�t let him live. It�s too dangerous."

"I know, but you panicking on us now is not going to help either! Let me deal with this,�

Cale snapped. Dais flinched and just nodded shakily. Satisfied, Cale held the boy�s head down as he took his dagger out of its hidden place in his clothes. He didn�t lose time as he knocked the boy out with the hilt of the dagger. Rowen slipped out of his arms and dropped on the hard wood floor, unconscious.

"Good. Now you can get rid of the little pest."

"Wait!"

Both men froze at the soft voice and turned to see Sage, standing next to the out cold boy. The blonde was shivering, seemingly not believing what he had just said.

"I mean, you don�t have too, I will do it. You two have more important things to do right now, like the other counsellors who want to see you. I can � I can take care of him for you while you are with them � "

Sage said softly, eyes fixed on the floor. Cale seemed to consider it, then nodded.

"Okay, if you want too, then do it. But be sure of what you are doing, because if you try anything that could jeopardize my plan, you will regret it. Now take this, you will need it. You know how to use it I�m s" C" Cale said as he gave his dagger, handle first, to the blonde.

Sage slowly took the dagger with shaking hands and nodded. He wd fod for the two men to leave before letting himself drop to the floor next to Rowen, with a sigh of relief.

"Well my friend, you have just placed me in one hell of a mess."

He whispered to the sleeping boy. Getting up, he proceeded to drag the other boy across the room toward the closets. Gagging the blue-haired boy, he reached for a length of rope Cale had in his room to bind Rowen, before putting him inside one of the closets. However, he made sure that the bonds were loose enough so the boy could free himself by the end of the day.

"I hope it will be enough to save you, Rowen. I have to go now, so I will leave you here. May God protect you, and � I�m sorry," the blonde murmured as tears ran down his cheeks. He wiped them away quickly and left the room, as silent as a shadow.

****

Fifteen minutes later�

Ryo was pacing in his room, oblivious to the rest of the world. /Sage is late./ He thought with a sigh. His love was late and he didn�t like it. Just as he was about to leave his room to find his blonde love, the door opened and Sage stepped inside.

"I�m sorry to be late my lord, but I really couldn�t come any sooner � uummff!!!"

The blonde was abruptly cut off as Ryo kissed him possessively. The lord was holding Sage tightly against his body and the blonde simply melted into his arms. When he finally let go of Sage, the boy was breathless.

"Well my lord, what did I do to deserve such a welcome?"

He said with a smile. Ryo smiled back and pushed the boy onto the bed before straddling the blonde�s waist.

"You know perfectly what my sweet angel. I don�t want you to be away from me, even for a second. I want you to stay with me."

Ryo said, a possessive glimmer in his tiger blue eyes as he kissed the blonde�s throat. Sage tilted his head back, eyes shining, but Ryo couldn�t see it.

"Yes my lord � I � I want to stay with you as well � "

He whispered, and if Ryo had been able to see his eyes, he would have seen tears in the soft violet eyes.

****

Rowen groaned painfully as he felt his senses coming back to him and quickly shut his reawakening eyes. /I have one hell of a headache,/ he thought with another fit of swearing. Reopening his eyes, he took note that he was gagged and bound. He cursed loudly behind his gag, which luckily muffled his swearing. /Damnit, what did those two bastards do to mAnd And where am I?/

Trying to think logically, Rowen finally concluded that he was still in Cale�s room. Now all that mattered was to free himself and to find Ryo before it was too late.

****

Later that night as he lay by his lord�s side, Sage stared at the ceiling. He glanced over at Ryo and noticed that the dark-haired man was fast asleep. Sage twisted around gently in Ryo�s arms in order to slip out of his lordship�s grasp before getting out of the bed. Now was the time to do his job.

The blonde silently walked over to his discarded clothes and among them, found what he was looking for. He then turned toward the bed and slowly made his way to the black-haired boy in the bed. The moonlight pouring through the window made the object in his hand shine eerily in the dark.

It was Cale�s dagger.

Sage stopped to gaze at Ryo�s sleeping form and once again, felt tears on his cheeks. The hand holding the dagger shook violently as Sage closed his violet eyes, trying to calm himself.

He had thought he was used to it after all this time, used to betraying and hurting people for Dais. Even used to being a whore, but it looked like he was wrong. He simply couldn�t do it.

The daggeippeipped out of his hand and onto the floor with a soft clatter, as Sage sank to his knees.

"I can�t do it. I can�t do that to him! He � he loves me � and god help me but I love him too� I just wasn�t expecting it. What I�m supposed to do now?"

He cried out softly into the night.

He knew that nobody was listening and that nobody would save him. There was only one thing he could do. Eyes dry now, he picked up the dagger and got up. His took the dagger firmly in his hand and gave one last kiss to his sleeping love and lord.

"I�m sorry Ryo ... please forgive me, but I don�t have a choice. You deserve better really�"

He whispered as he raised the dagger �

A glint of silver brieflasheashed unnoticed in the silent room �

****

Rowen blinked as his bonds finally gave way under him and his hands came free. Rubbing his sore wrists for a second, he hastily undid the ropes that bound his feet before opening the closet door very slowly.

Glancing cautiously outside, he noticed that nobody was in the room. Letting out a sigh of relief, Rowen got out of the closet and stretched his sore body. Then he paled when he saw that it was already well past midnight. The moon was shining outside and everything was quiet.

/My god! How long was I unconscious?!/

Not bothering to wonder why Cale wasn�t in his room, Rowen burst out of the room and ran to Ryo�s, fear in the pit of his stomach.

/God let me be on time. Please God, let me be on time!/ he prayed silently as he hurried upstairs. He finally reached Ryo�s room and stoppo cao catch his breath in front of the door. He seemed to be constantly running lately. After a moment, his breathing regulated and he pushed the door open, only to gasp in shock at what he saw.

****

As he walked down the hall to the king�s room, Cale grinned happily. Indeed, Cale was very pleased with himself and with the world. A smile graced his lips as he thought that soon, very soon, he would be the new ruler of the kingdom he had worked so hard to get. Everything was perfect, nothing could go wrong now.

Next to him Dais was equally satisfied. He was g tog to be rich after this job! He wouldn�t have to play mercenary anymore. Maybe he would settle down somewhere, buy a house, find a wife and have some kids, who knows?

"Well, let�s see if that whore of yours did his job!"

Cale exclaimed as he rubbed his hands together with an evil smirk. Dais shrugged and followed his current boss. Cale walked over to the door and seeing it was open slightly, pushed it open further as Dais stayed right behind him.

But when they stepped inside, they let out a scream of horror, for the sight that was presented to them wasn�t the one they were expecting.

Rowen was there, standing next to his king, eyes wide, skin pale and looking like he was in shock. Kneeling on the ground was Ryo, crying and sobbing hysterically as he held Sage�s body in his arms. The blonde was still, his body covered in blood and didn�t seem to be breathing.

Cale�s dagger was on the floor, stained red and literally bathed in the blonde�s blood.

Ryo was stroking Sage�s hair and whispering something that they couldn�t hear as he cried. Suddenly he seemed to notice the two other men and raised his head sharply.

"YOU! How dare you even show your face in my presence!! You two deceived me, but I will not let this offence go unpunished! Rowen, call the soldiers, NOW! I want them in jail so I can deal with them later."

Rowen snapped out of his trance and glanced at Ryo, then at the two men. He called the soldiers immediately. His eyes were burning with a rage almost as strong as his king�s as he watched the soldiers take the traitors away.

"Ryo?"

He asked, worried for the young man who was still holding the blonde. Ryo just shook his head and stayed silent as he kept weeping. Rowen looked at him, then at the door that had once more been pushed open �

****

Four months later�

Ryo turned on his bed with a happy sigh and smiled sleepily as he felt his lover snuggling against him. Smooth hair tickled his chin as he ran his hands down his lover�s back, laughing softly at the reaction he got.

"Huummm � Damn you Ryo, it�s too early for this � "

"Oh really? I didn�t hear you complaining last night."

"Well, that was last night."

His lover responded, turning his head slightly so he could look at his king. Ryo�s smile widened as he gazed into deep violet eyes. His lover smiled back and pushed away a lock londlonde hair that fell back into place very quickly.

"Then I guess we can do other things then � "

"And what kind of other things might that be, my lord?"

The blonde asked, his smile becoming sly.

Ryo shook his head.

"Talk about mood swings � But I was thinking of going out to the garden, or into town maybe. I need a break from my king�s duty or I will go crazy!"

"I can see that, not that Rowen would be very happy. But you must admit that you have less pressure now."

"Yeah, since the day I almost lost you � I would rather not think about that day anymore Sage. You almost died on me!"

Ryo cried as he held Sage tightly against him, his body shaking with the memories. Sage nodded and buried his face in Ryo�s neck.

"I know Ryo� That night � I couldn�t hurt you � And I didn�t have anything left to live for without you, so instead of killing you was was told, I wanted to kill myself and end my pain. But you d med me, you and Sekhmet the healer� I still can�t believe my luck. I thought you would have left me to die if you knew � "

He whispered. Ryo comforted him as he held him.

"I know angel, but I love you too much to let you go. If anything, it was the most beautiful proof of love I have ever received, but I�m really glad it�s over. You wouldn�t have lasted another day in that life, right?"

"No � and I�m not afraid anymore; they are both dead now. They can�t hurt us anymore."

Sage said softly as he started to doze off into sleep again.

Ryo pushed him back onto the bed and watched as the blonde drifted to sleep. With a last look at his sleeping love, Ryo got out of the bed to start his new day, a smile on his lips. For once, life has a happy end, he thought.

Author�s notes: Here, all done! Well I don�t really like the end. I think it�s too fast but oh well� ~_~;;;;

Special note: I�m opening a contest. Since I�m new at this and don�t really have a clue about how those things work, I hope you will be nice on me and tell me if doi doing something wrong. ^^ It just strikes me that there are not a lot of Seiji-uke fics around the web and you know me, I�m a big Seiji-uke fan. So here is the deal:

1) First of all it�s a Seiji-uke contest, so you must write a yaoi fic staring Seiji as the uke/bottom and where it is in his character.

2) It can be with whoever you want, the Ronins, the Warlords, Talpa or even the Ancient I don�t care as long as he is uke (see above).

3) If possible, have a lemon in your story (it can be hinted at and not explicitly written, just make it clear Seiji in on bottom, as I said before)

4) Try to have some angst, a fight between the Ronins to gain Seiji�s love or something like that. Rivalry between some of the boys to have Seiji sounds like an interesting idea, don�t you think? It can be a love triangle or even rape if you like it. I torture Seiji enough myself not to be a prude on this! ^^;;;

All the stories sent to me will be posted on my site in a special section, and I mean ALL the fics, because I think the authors deserve praises for their work. I will make another special place for the winner. The winner will get the right to request any type of fic from me, and I will write it. It can be anything as long as it�s Ronin Warriors or Digimon (with Seiji or Matt as the uke if you are asking about those two ^^). Also, so far I don�t have a limited date, so you can write whenever you find this and feel like doing it. That�s all I have to say. Now I�m waiting to see just how many people are actually going to participate!
