~*~ ..:Second Sonata of Memory Lane:.. ~*~
The man held back an exhausted sigh. He never remembered the dark beauty being this hard-headed, flirty, and damn stubborn. One thing hadn't changed, however, the girl attracted trouble. She fell in with the most troublesome characters, Ash, Rues, Stan, even Zeth. Most of the time they weren't even human. Green eyes barely glanced at Zeth but he could already tell he wasn't your everyday club sleeze. Any normal sleeze would already have attacked him with bare hands and lost, tragically. This guy was a bit more even tempered, pacing himself to avoid an outright brawl. Under different circumstances Rues would have enjoyed this guy's company, even drank with him, perhaps. But fate had different plans for their current affairs and Rues was forced to outright refuse to leave. Damnit Ash. he thought to himself. What that blonde got him into...yet somehow Rues continued to keep his promises. He had never once broken a promise because he had never once made one. Not, at least, until he had met the blue-eyed rebel face to face, the boy dying on the floor beside him. But it was a whole different torture now...a whole other story.
Rues let all hints of humor drain from his features, he was straight faced and unreadable. This was business now. Ashena could not continue like this. He had followed her every day for a month, watching as she flirted with men she thought all to be men. Rues knew them better as vampires, immortals, even changelings and demons. She could be clueless and beautiful all at once. Now it was time to end this saga and screw her head back on straight.
"Ashena." he said it firmly but kept his tone calm and retrained. "Ash asked me to do this because I'm the only one left he could trust. I'm sure I was his last resort but the fact still remains that I have been asked to watch over you." And since you're obviously not old enough to open your eyes and care for yourself I've decided to do it for you. He kept his angered thoughts to himself, none of them appearing on his features. He wanted her to understand, if it truly was his choice, he and Ash would have nothing to do with her. He had been about ready to give up on her, as always, Ash saved Rues in the nick of time. He received a letter from the blonde, his scratchy writing formed directions for the next year, if it came to that. Why did I pledge my loyalty to this brat, again?
Rues put a hand in his pocket, feeling the corners of an envelop meant for Ashena. He tried to red it through through the light but, of course, Ash had sealed it so well. How bothersome one kid could be.
