CHAPTER FIVE
The kitchen was quiet as Cye fixed up a dinner plate. He picked it up and brought it over to the kitchen table. Sekhmet was sitting up with his head tilted back and an ice pack on his shoulder. Cye placed the plate down in front of him and sat down beside him.
“I hate that bitch,” Sekhmet grumbled.
Cye couldn’t blame him. He would be pissed, too, if a woman weaker and shorter than him took him down in a matter of seconds. Cye and Anubis had found Sekhmet around the time he was waking up from his sudden deep slumber. Sekhmet had seemed confused, to which Anubis had summed it up in one word: Sky.
“Here you go.”
Sekhmet murmured a small note of gratitude to him before picking up his fork. He speared a few pieces of chicken and shoved them in his mouth. Cye waited for a moment before speaking.
“Do you know Sky, too?” Cye asked.
Sekhmet nodded.
“I do. All four of us do. Sky is the only spawn of the Ancient One,” Sekhmet answered.
He continued eating while the two of them talked. The others were all dispersed to their rooms or, in the case of Rowen and Anubis, were outside.
“Is she really the cause of Cale’s scar? Is that why he doesn’t talk about it?” Cye asked.
Sekhmet stopped to take a sip of his drink and shift the ice pack to his other shoulder. He put his fork down in favor of giving Cye his full attention. Judging by the look on his face, Cye could see this was a serious conversation.
“Cale gave Sky the scar on her neck and Sky gave him the scar over his eye. Sky is younger than us. We met when she was only twelve and we were…a bit older. None of us are really sure how it happened, but it was a few months later. We were split up searching for the five armors in the Nether Realm. Cale spotted the Ancient One and followed after him.”
Cye frowned.
“And what? He came across Sky?” Cye asked.
Sekhmet shrugged.
“I don’t know. All I do know is we all arrived back to the dynasty after him and he had his eye covered. Badamon tried healing it, but because of its origins, was unable to.” Sigh. “Cale didn’t want to tell us and we didn’t ask.”
Cye could only imagine how powerful or tricky Sky must be to have caused such bodily harm to the warlord.
“Cye.”
Cye jerked out of his thoughts and looked up at him. Sekhmet reached out to grip his hand firmly.
“You need to watch yourself around Sky. Don’t let her small stature fool you. She’s more skilled and crafty than you can ever imagine,” Sekhmet told him.
Cye nodded. He knew his lover wouldn’t caution him for nothing. He leaned in close with a smirk on his face.
“I think it’s her that’s going to need to be careful. After all, she knows the four of you, but she just met the rest of us.”
Sekhmet shared his smirk and pulled on his younger lover’s hand. Cye allowed himself to be pulled from his chair and sat down on Sekhmet’s lap when he scooted his chair back. Sekhmet wrapped an arm around his waist while retrieving his fork with the other.
Cye brought a hand up to move the ice pack over to Sekhmet’s opposite shoulder. He rubbed gently at the sore muscles in the uncovered shoulder. Sekhmet let out an appreciative groan.
[I’ll take care of you after I’m done eating.]
Cye smirked before leaning forward to open his mouth and nip at his lover’s neck.
[Promises, promises.]

/……/

Cale had been quiet since their return. He had refused dinner and had only allowed Sage to shower with him, because the blonde had offered to help wash his back. Sage hadn’t wanted to pry or open old wounds so he had remained quiet as well.
Now they both lay under the sheets with Sage resting on top of him with his head lying on his chest. Neither one of them were asleep as the sheet pooled just above their waists. One of Cale’s hands ran smoothly up and down his lover’s bare back. Sage’s eyes were half-closed, but he wasn’t the least bit sleepy.
His eyes darted about the barely lit room as he breathed in the woody scent of his dark lover. Sage had so many questions to ask him yet he held back. The female devil had already effectively pissed the warlord off and that pissed him off.
I’ll wring her neck myself the next time I see her, Sage vowed.
Suddenly, he arched his back when nails dug hard into a sensitive spot on his lower back. Cale chuckled. This made Sage roll his head so he was looking at him. Without speaking and with only a small bit of hesitation, Sage lifted a hand to bring up to his lover’s face.
Keeping his breathing steady, Cale closed his eyes at the light touch on his face. Light fingertips ran over the cross-shaped scar on the left side of his face. He allowed the touch for a short time before pulling his head away. Sage let his hand drop and his eyes close.
Sage sighed softly as a hand came up to run through his hair. It smoothed the hair back from covering his one eye. A thumb lightly rolled over his closed eyelid. The movement soothed his frayed nerves.
“Anata ga shiritai [You want to know],” Cale murmured.
Sage smiled.
“Anata dake ga watashi ni tsutaetau baai ni [Only if you want to tell me],” Sage murmured back.
Sage groaned as Cale pulled him further up onto his body. His soft member ran up the inner thigh before resting against his lover’s semi-hard member. It made his own twitch and forced another groan out of him.
[Do you truly want to hear the story, my dark angel?]
Sage let out a small whimper when the hand stilled in his hair.
[If you’ll tell me, then I will listen. Of that, you have my word.]
Cale knew his lover would keep his mouth shut about anything he told him. He wasn’t one to share bedroom secrets. Although, this story would be far from any intimate stories.
“The Ancient One separated the nine armors. Talpa found the four armors with us and pulled us into his service. He had us out searching for the other five armors in the Nether Realm. I spotted the Ancient One and followed him.”

/……/

“Black Lightning Slash!”
He watched from the shadows as the old, worn-down building the Ancient One had gone into was struck by lightning. A dark-colored fire was suddenly engulfing the building. He chuckled as he disappeared and reappeared inside the building.
Something zipped by behind him, causing him to dart after it. The figure blurred this way and that, giving him a good chase through the building. The fire quickly spread through the building. It caused parts of the ceiling and its pillars to come down.
He finally managed to corner his prey after lashing out and catching him with his armored claw. Except it wasn’t the prey he had been expecting. Instead of the full grown male Ancient One, it was his half-grown daughter. Her eyes sparkled in the glowing flames as she held a hand up to her bleeding neck.
Cale chuckled as he slowly approached his prey. He sent his armor away so he stood only in his subarmor. He wasn’t afraid of the flames that licked at his armored feet. The fire was his doing, after all; they wouldn’t harm him.
He could see the yellow ring around Sky’s eyes glow as bright as the flames.
“Lost your way, little girl?” he taunted.
Sky’s gaze narrowed as she stood her ground, despite his approach.
“I’m not a little girl and you’re not the big, bad wolf. Stay back,” Sky growled.
Cale chuckled. He took another step closer. He watched in morbid fascination as blood ran down her neck through her fingers.
“I will enjoy watching the shadows as the flames take you into the afterlife,” Cale said.
One more step and he was teetering dangerously close to Sky’s personal space. The building creaked as the flames closed in on both of them. A small smirk flitted across the young teen’s face.
“I warned you.”
Sky flung her bleeding hand out in front of her. A good amount of blood flew across their space and hit his face. He stumbled back in surprise.
Suddenly, his face erupted in pain and he yelled. His hand flew to his face where he could feel the blood seeping into his skin like liquid fire.
“Tu a calla de. Moor dene po.”
He could just barely hear the Sky’s chanting over the horrific burning and tearing of his skin combined with his screams. It was an unimaginable pain; pain he had never felt before.
He heard a distant, familiar clang of rings before he was grabbed. In the blink of an eye, he was outside and lying on the ground.
“Sky, let’s go.”
He felt a hand land on the one covering his face.
“You are a fool to think the shadows listen only to you.”
The last thing he remembered before passing out was the sound of clanging rings and a bright, white flash.

/……/

Sage lay quietly digesting all this new information before speaking.
“The chanting. It did something to the blood?” Sage asked, opening his eyes.
Cale nodded.
“She was speaking in the Ancient tongue, but my best guess is that she cursed the blood. Despite her disability, I was wrong to underestimate her.”
Sage frowned.
“Disability?”
Cale nodded. He explained to Sage that Sky didn’t see using her eyes.
“So she’s blind,” Sage replied.
To his shock, Cale shook his head.
“Not in the way you think. In Sky’s eyes, everything is dark and barely visible. She is able to see things more clearly by ‘reading’ the energies around her. She’s able to manipulate the shadows around her to aid her in seeing. It makes her a very formidable opponent.”
Sage silently agreed. He could see why Cale would hate her with a passion. Darkness and the shadows were his territory.
“Thank you for telling me,” Sage murmured.
Cale smoothed a hand over his lover’s cheek and to the back of his head before pulling him into a kiss. Sage needed no further encouragement as he opened his mouth and allowed his lover’s tongue to slip in. The two groaned as their tongues bumped and rubbed against each other. Sage let out another groan as Cale rolled them over and rubbed his body against his.
Sage arched his back and let out a shaky sigh when Cale broke the kiss to nip at his throat. He hummed at the back of his throat as rough hands roamed over his body. Cale eased off his neck as he nipped his way up to his ear.
“Have I told you lately how good you are to me?”
Sage smirked with a throaty chuckle.
“Why tell me, when you can show me?”
Cale thrust forward, causing their members to slide against each other. Sage’s hands came up to grip his forearms as he threw his head back with another groan. Cale knew his lover was close, but that the blonde could and would hold himself back until he was pounding into him. However, he decided to draw things out this time. To reward his lover for putting up with his moody state.
Damn that blasted Sky, Cale thought.
Lowering his head, Cale licked and bit across his lover’s chest to a nipple. He took it in his mouth to suck hard on it. Sage’s hands drew up his back to thread into his hair. He bit his bottom lip to hold himself back.
The man was pulling out all the moves he knew would break down his resolve quickly and effectively.
[Ahh. Gods above, must you torture me so?]
Cale mentally chuckled before moving lower. Sage nearly came off the bed when his lover’s hand closed over his erection. The hot hand pumped his member while an equally hot mouth sucked at his collarbone.
[Come on, Halo. Give me something to ease the way.]
Sage was only able to hold out for a little longer before Cale bit down on a sensitive piece of skin. Then he came all over his hand. Cale smiled into his lover’s skin as he pumped the member until it had nothing left to give.
Sage stared blinking up at the ceiling as he struggled to get his breathing back under control. Cale’s hand slipped down while his mouth came up to cover the blonde’s mouth. Knowing what the dark-haired man had in mind, Sage opened his mouth wider and allowed him to blow air into his mouth.
Sage turned it into a kiss when two fingers slipped inside him. He arched his back again, allowing them to slip into him even further. He didn’t bother fighting his lover for control in his own mouth; he let the tongue slip in and sucked gently on it.
Cale scissored his fingers and stretched the blonde to accommodate his size. It was never his intention to hurt the blonde any more than he wanted him to. Slipping another cum-covered finger in, he pumped three fingers inside him. He purposely missed the blonde’s prostate, despite knowing exactly where it was.
Their mouths pulled apart when he removed his fingers and Sage let out a sound of protest. It didn’t last long though when Cale pushed into him smoothly. Sage groaned as his lover slowly pushed in and out of him.
“Fuck,” Sage cursed.
His lover was purposely going slow and missing his prostate. Sage wasn’t sure if he was being rewarded or punished. Whatever it was, he was only about to take it a few minutes before wrapping his legs around his lover and thrusting. This pushed Cale all the way in up to the hilt and pressing against his prostate.
Cale let out a barely audible gasp. He smirked down at the frustrated look on lover’s face.
“Was there something you wanted, love?” Cale murmured.
Sage glared.
“Yeah. Move.”
Cale didn’t need to be told twice. His lover’s need was pressing against him, begging for attention. He grasped his lover in hand as he finally sped up his movements. He struck his lover’s prostate over and over.
It didn’t take long for Sage to come again. With his lover’s seed covering his hand and walls tightening around his cock, it took only a few more thrusts for Cale to come deep inside his lover. Cale tried to pull out but his lover’s strong hold kept him in place. Cale chuckled as he pressed a kiss to the sweaty neck in front of him. He heard a rumbling in the throat under his mouth.
Cale eased off and laid his head down on his lover’s chest.
“What did you say?” Cale asked.
Sage opened his eyes to reveal vibrant eyes.
“I want to hurt her. For you.”
Cale answered his response with a hardening of his soft member. Sage moaned with the return of the tight feeling.
“Nothing would make me happier, my dark angel.”

/……/

“…so that means you’re not blind.”
Sky smiled and nodded as she took her necklace off. Ryo and Sky sat in the dark corner of a coffee shop, back where no one could see them. Sky placed her necklace down on the table between them.
Ryo watched as the dragon on the silver chain unrolled its body from around his armor orb. The dragon actually pulled itself off the chain and pushed the orb across the table with its small snout. Ryo smiled as he reached out to take the orb.
“Thank you,” Ryo said.
It felt awkward thanking an inanimate object, but seeing as the dragon nodded its head at him; it wasn’t that awkward, after all. The dragon returned to the silver chain where it wrapped itself back up and went still. Sky picked it up and put it back around her neck.
“You said you cursed the scar on Cale’s face. What type of curse?” Ryo murmured.
Sky took a sip of her hot chocolate before speaking.
“It was a curse of innocent blood. I meant him no harm and he attacked me without cause. The blood burned a permanent mark into his face. In that time, the wound on my neck closed. I bear the mark for cursing him back.” Sky chuckled. “My father wishes I had taken the higher road.”
Ryo nodded quietly.
“But that’s not my style. I learned when it comes to the warlords, survival is the key. My father tries to take a more defensive approach whereas I prefer the offensive. If Cale wants to bring the fight to me, then I’ll meet him halfway,” Sky stated.
“You make it sound so easy. I’ve been running since…the other ronins turned,” Ryo said.
“I imagine your secret is what makes it easier,” Sky said, out of the blue.
Ryo gasped while ducking his hand under the table.
“I told you I can see things by the energies around me. From the moment I met you, I could tell there was something…different to your life energy. I just now realized what it is,” Sky explained.
Ryo looked away as he traced a finger over the near-invisible bracelet around his wrist.
“Ryo.”
The mortal returned his gaze to the female Ancient.
“It’s a rare occurrence in the Nether Realm, but it’s not unnatural. You shouldn’t be ashamed. Unless…” Sky’s voice trailed off.
“I don’t want to talk about it,” Ryo replied.
“Am I the only one who knows?” Sky asked.
Ryo nodded.
“Then I won’t say a word,” Sky reassured him.
They talked for a little bit more before parting ways. Ryo decided to return to Tom’s apartment to spend a little more time with him before disappearing again.
