some healing sleep status by Mindbender manipulating him and that the people who saw Alexei as a leader woke up Jason from some frozen sleep status due to thinking he would take Alexei’s place as their leader due to that none of the people at the Zesky Asylum and Hospital from mind scans are willing to take the leadership position and they seemed to have all agreed on Jason to lead them. He hears Ramses add that the High Council should tread carefully with their treatment towards Jason due to that the First Ones he figures is another name for Humans he knows from past history that whenever a First One in a leadership position was taken out of the title by medical reasons of another person causing injury that people have displayed some very protective attitude towards the First One’s replacement including reacting very violently if the replacement suffered any medical ailments that were by another person’s hand and he’s not kidding about that for they should check their records and they’ll find too many cases of this on file regarding the First Ones and their attitudes towards First Ones in leadership positions. Eric figures to himself as Ramses become silent and sees the speakers bow their heads followed by the High Council behind seated waggling their heads and waving their hands that he’ll refer himself as Jason to people instead of the name of Eric due to thinking he has a second chance of leadership duties and figures that the Jason name wouldn’t make people feel negatively like the Sun Lord titled name. He hears nothing from Ramses in comment to his thinking due to sensing his mind still scanned by the Meritanian as the High Council he eyes seems lengthy with their talk he figures is what their doing till their speakers raise their heads and the male speaks in some firm voice speaking the name of Jason and listen carefully comment along with saying that Alexei caused them too much trouble in his leadership position interfering with their plans and they had an assassin put him down asleep into some healing sleep status to get him out of the way and adds that they’ll let Jason he names to replace Alexei but adds that their watching him for any interference with their plans and won’t hesitate to send an assassin to put him down on a permanent basis if he is found to be interfering with their plans. He doesn’t comment keeps his mind blank to hear from Ramses that he needs to transport Jason back to his people due to that a Builder woke up from being put to sleep and is in a bad mood from scanning people around that Builder including the Builder himself who correctly figured that the High Council got a hold of Jason along with figuring out that the Meritanians have some transportation ability and don’t want the Builder to get the idea that their not immune to Builder voice orders. He hears from the male speaker a comment of remember their warning followed by transport Jason out command. He finds himself in medical bay after freed from hand holds to hear from the doctor loudly sounding annoyed using the name of Breaker that the One has arrived to medical bay by Meritanians. He finds the doctor talking to some handheld device and sees a light show that shows Breaker flaring golden eyes that makes him think the hybrid is a Builder and furious which Breaker he hears speaks loudly in gibberish in some compelling voice tone to find two light shows showing two males with appearances hidden by cloth wear and head masks similar to the Mesan’s Curse’s head mask but senses that their not part of the species but something else. He hears Breaker order loudly to the twin males calling them by names of Blackie and Whitney to guard the One actual name Jason he hears Breaker use that name to his confusion to wonder how the Builder got it and continues to hear from the male that he expects a perfect guardianship job and won’t except a medical injury hitting the One by someone else’s hand in some negative way as acceptable period. He eyes the two males to spot on their chests are squares in color one of night sky and one of clouds which he recalls from his memories that the night sky is Blackie and the cloud is Whitney which he eyes them to see them fade from view turning into whirling tornadoes he figures is them being in some hidden status-
Dictator was interrupted by Torrin giving out a loud Yeer comment. He gave Torrin a glare to see the Drainer was jabbing a finger in Brianna's direction he noticed Nikolas was still staring at Brianna but appeared to have some sexual look in his face and seen scratching his private. Dictator gave up a sound of disgust and thrust out his sword getting up only to get blocked by Torrin putting a hand on his shoulder.
He gave Torrin a glare and got from the Drainer in response "Nicky doesn't know that I'm not supposed to drink from manoids around here. Excuse me while I handle punching his lights out as you Humans say it."
Dictator put his sword away and stood in front of the hut watching as Torrin walked into the bushes he figured was doing a sneak attack onto Nikolas. He didn't have long to wait as Torrin seen snuck up behind Nikolas and gave up a loud Boo comment while putting hands onto Nikolas's shoulders scaring the Hayu Leader. Dictator frowned as offsprings gathered around Brianna got up darting away some heard snickering loudly as they went to huts. He found Nikolas getting up and giving Torrin a glare of anger only to find the Drainer punching Nikolas's face with a fist followed by the Hayu Leader hitting the ground unconscious. He gave up a loud Hmph as he found his Hmph echoed by Brianna walking up to him.
Dictator kept his mouth shut as Brianna snarled "Typical Nikolas was ogling me with that thing between his legs as I told the story. He ignored my repeated attempts to get him to think of something else. What an idiot!"
Dictator didn't reply as Brianna stomped into the hut passed him he stayed outside eyeing Nikolas lying spread eagle onto a log unconscious. He found Torrin walking up to him and parking himself on the ground in front of the hut and appeared to be asleep ignoring him staring.
Dictator spoke loudly "Edenia, do something about Nikolas and his rudeness."
He heard thunder booming including lightening flashing above making him nervous in response as he heard "Go to sleep Dictator!"
Dictator glared at Torrin the voice's owner who ignored his staring as he continued to hear thunder rumbling and lightening flashing to his disgust. He gave up a loud Hmph sound and without a word went into the hut finding Brianna pacing inside.
She was heard grumbling "Typical male that I get some idiot staring at me with mating on his mind by his behavior. Idiot doesn't get it the story I was telling involving something else!"
Dictator without a word plopped himself down onto the blanket and ignored Brianna pacing back and forth. He heard rain falling overhead hitting the hut including spilling inside the eater's hole which he got up and thrust the eater's hole's cover in place. He put the eater out and sat with night vision while staring at Brianna who kept on pacing.
"Go to sleep Brianna!" He heard howled outside the hut via Torrin's voice as the storm kept on rumbling.
Dictator eyed Brianna in response that gave up a loud Hmph and laid her form down onto the floor and got ordered "Spoon fashion me will ya?"
He obeyed finding Brianna adjusting the blanket to cover herself and sensed that she was lying awake by her fidgeting. Dictator recalled something involving rubbing people's backs to calm them down from bad moods did it to Brianna who sighed loudly to his hands.
"Anyway if Nikolas wanted to mate with me, he should have said something other than staring at me with that weird look of his." He got from Brianna who added "It was rather rude of him to stare at me like that when he should have used words."
Dictator didn't say a word in response instead wrapped arms around Brianna wrapped in her blanket and heard her add "You tell me what you want instead of staring like an idiot. Something that Nikolas needs to learn around here instead of staring at people with odd looks when he wants something."
Dictator sighed as he found the storm quit to his relief heard Brianna give off a yawn followed by sensing her conk out which he conked himself out asleep.
Epilogue
Dictator woke up as if drawn feeling himself compelled to wakefulness. He got up finding Brianna still asleep and ignoring him. He walked out of the hut finding the sun was slowly disappearing down the horizon via the looks of it. He found Nikolas leaning against a tree and staring at t
he sky with a pleading look on his face to his disgust.
Dictator spoke loudly "Still thinking with that thing of yours Nikolas?"
He gave Nikolas a glare who stared at him with a double take look followed by snarling "Leave me alone to commune with nature."
Dictator thrust out his sword and spoke in response "Commune with nature when you're desperate for something by that expression on your face-"
He was interrupted "Leave me alone!" spoken by Nikolas.
Dictator spoke in response "Whatever is paining you, I hope you'll get over it."
He found himself shocked with what he blurted as he gave Nikolas a glare in response and thrust aside his sword before walking away.
"Dictator, wait a minute, as you Humans say it. I got a confession to say to you and want you to hear me out." he heard from Nikolas.
Dictator didn't comment a response instead went to the log next to Nikolas and sat down with arms folded and spoke "So tell me what's bothering you."
He found Nikolas speaking in response "A story I keep on getting in my head that is disturbing me too much. It involves I posing as someone else named Nightwalker some Drainer sucker in a Human form."
Dictator kept his mouth shut into a thin line and remained seated listening to Nikolas speaking his tale involving a Human Drainer named Nightwalker a Bloody vampire as the species referred themselves living on a planetary world named Egyptia.
He found Nikolas added during the story "Nightwalker met this Builder named Brandis, the Record Keeper who was actually a slayer of the Bloody vampires themselves instead of a full Builder and tried to suck him to death. Some species dubbing themselves Tennans landed onto the planet with their Queen ship and wound up taking Brandis off the planet as Nightwalker and his people took control of Egyptia in some deity lord terms."
Dictator sighed softly as he recognized the far away look on Nikolas's face was twin to Brianna's facial expression when she was having a memory before speaking it.
He groaned softly and forced himself to listen to Nikolas telling his tale including a tale of Brandis, the Record Keeper writing a story or a diary journal in Nightwalker's written language dubbing the story "Builder's Journal."
Dictator found himself joined by the others among the camp including Brianna listening to Nikolas telling the story ignoring his growing audience. He sighed and found Brianna gripping his hand during Nikolas's story telling and gripped her hand in response and forced himself to keep on listening.
The End?
