New chapter...
Hiya, nice to see you again Sylvia (as you're known now...)! Do you think you still have the (working) url to your old rpg? Huge Big bro slig, was it necessary for you to say that? If you don't read it then why reply? To all of you that knows about one of my chars *caugh*Sylvia*caugh* should recognise him... Anyway, here it is....
They opened the door and simply threw me in. Another one picked me up. A bit smaller than the other two. He wasn't as violent as the other ones. He picked me up, opened a door, put me down, closed and locked the door. I sighed and looked around. It was a small room, quite much like a cell. Two beds, a window, a table with a chair, a barred window, a small lamp in the roof and... Something by the wall I couldn't identify. It looked like a piece of clothing thrown in a corner. I knew it wasn't when it turned around and scratched the ground in it's sleep. It was frightening and still interesting on the same time. Two big horns on it's head, a long beak, a long tail with black claws on the end, fours legs with a hand at the end of each, all with claws, mudokonlike eyes and a dark green colour on it's skin. I crept forward towards it. It turned around again. Mumbling something that sounded like a word. It opened it's eyes and saw me. Two big orangeglowing eyes staring at me. I didn't feel a bit frightened. It closed it's eyes again. I took a breath.
"Who are you?" I asked, then realized it probably wouldn't understand me. I stood up on all four legs, streched and then laid down again.
"Eben." it said. "Slig is?"
"Gold."
"Slig is?" he repeated.
"My name is Gold." I explained. It nodded.
"What Gold does here?"
"Well, maybe punished, I don't know."
"Ah..." he said. He turned his head to one of the beds and sighed.
"Eben not spoken since... since.... long ago." he said and took a long sad look at me. "Gold will not be here long anyway, why care?"
"What do you mean with that?" I said, appareantly too harsh. He got up quicker than I thought he was able to and stared at me, his eyes were suddenly cold and sort of saying 'leave me alone, I'm too big for you'.
"They take Gold!" he hissed. "Gold never seen again. Eben would, but never taken! Not important."
He got down. I felt his claws click against the floor. Somehow, my muscles got tense each time I heard that sound.
"Not important? What, you mean I am?" I said, careful with the tone. Eben nodded.
"Gold bad slig. Sodex and sligs not like Gold. Gold bad slig. It makes Gold important slig. Disappear." he said, nodded and made a odd 'mm'-sound.
"Sodex?"
"Vykker. Glukkon tells sligs 'do that', but Vykker tells glukkon 'do that' and glukkon do. Glukkon no knowing it. Vykker tells everyone, just through glukkon."
"Uhm..." I said, thinking over those words.
"Gold no like Sodex? Gold slig, slig like Sodex?" he asked and turned his head to his side.
"Huh?"
"Gold would like Sodex if Gold were not Gold, just slig?"
I didn't get a word.
"I suppose so."
"Ha, bad slig!!" Eben giggled.
"Eeeh..." was everything I managed to say before he started again.
"Sligs would gladly kill Gold for that! Sodex bad, works for..." he said and hastily interrupted himself at the end of the sentance.
"Works for?" I asked. Eben looked at the floor.
"No one..."
I understood that he wouldn't bring that subject up again. I laid down.
"Say, have you seen a small slig and a beaten mudokon warrior around here?" I asked. The word mudokon brought my memory back to Gaia. Eben seemed to think hard.
"Slig... Warrior..." he mumbled. "Hmmm.... No, no such here. Maybe at Sodex. Maybe already disappeared."
"Poor guys..."
Eben suddenly smelled the air with a worried look. His look got calmer by the moment.
"Gold going to Sodex now." he said. He sighed. "Thanks for bringing Eben some company in here..."
The door opened. A slig took one of my arms and dragged me out. I didn't fight back. I saved my powers for Sodex.
They knocked on the door and was let in. A voice aske about a password. One of the sligs mumbled something in a voicelock. Another door opened. The room had a strange sort of 'what am I doing here?' mood inside it. The slig let go of me. I faced the ugly vykker Sodex.
