Colour And Strings

*Encre's POV*

I walk around, should I try the room I first stayed in on my first day here? I mean I did found him there before. I'm really wondering if that was his room.

Nope, no way. Dismiss that thought right way.

But, still going to check, encase.

I walk toward the room, there's weird sounds and I stopped right away. The sound is, well, like a animal and from what I've learned from this place is to never go anywhere that doesn't feel safe.

So, of course, I was going to walk away but...I heard Fallacy. I got worried and I just can't leave him when he did so much.

I didn't want to go there, I really don't.

Taking a deep breath, I opened to door to a crack, I can't see much in there but Fallacy is there, crying in pain, what happened? I opened it a bit wider but a shadow that reflexed from the light inside the room stopped me.

Is that a wing, no, a pair of wing. They look like demon wings. Oh no, Fallacy! I push opened the door, expecting a fearsome demon hurting Fallacy but, no. The wing belong to someone I don't know and Fallacy isn't there. Only a man with demonic wings stand in the room, howling in pain.

My first reaction is to kill it, as much as I want to avoid that, it's almost the first rule Uriel taught me. I step closer, quietly with my magic prepared. He turned around, full of hunger.

He jumped on me and pushed me to the ground, the air in my lung got knocked out as the impact on my head stopped my thinking. His eyes are blood red, there's a colour of red around his eyes and a pair of long sharp fangs. 

A vampire?

Isn't he...

The vampire suddenly stepped back, he's about to run away. No!

"Wait! Please, wait," I shouted, but he didn't listen and flew away into the night. He's the guy who killed my parent along side with the Devil. I kneeled to the ground and watched as the shadow of him flew away.

I suddenly remembered, Fallacy! He was here wasn't he? Where is he?

"Fallacy? Fallacy are you here?" I stood up and look around, he isn't then, why did I hear his voice?

"What are you doing here?"

I turned to see Fallacy behind me, he's not wearing much, only a opened shirt and a pair of trouser, I breath a sigh of relief knowing that he's safe. I smiled.

"Nothing, I just wanted to talk to you for a bit," he didn't say anything for a bit, I look at his face he seems to be angry.

"Come, we'll talk by the fire place, it's warmer," then he turned to me "Do you drink wine?"

I nodded and he gives a side smirk and gestured me to follow him. I didn't think much about what he'll do but I'm really excited to know him better. Now that I think of it, he should still think that my name is Uriel right? I need to tell him soon about my real name.

We reached a door about twice my size, I've really been wondering, does this castle use to belong to a giant before? Who else would need a door that big?

Fallacy opened the door for me and the warm air hit me.

There's a cosy fireplace with sofas in front of it, there's four huge window with red curtains and the wall is full of artwork of different people, some look like kings and queens, some look like prisoners, other's are either normal people, angels or demons and the ones lower are some patterns.

I normally would be more scared of the demons now I couldn't help but admire the artwork. Wouldn't this be the perfect place for drawing and painting! Ah! I must have forgotten to bring my art work from the village as well! Oh well, it's only a few centuries of work I've lost. *sigh*

"What did you want to talk about?" he asked and snap me back to reality. I turned to see him pouring two glass of wine.

"I want to know more about you! I've been here for a while now and I want to talk to you every so often," I said as he poured me a glass of wine, I took it and waited for him to give me a response as I sit down.

"What do you want to know about me then?" he asked as he sit down opposite of me.

"As much as possible, things such as what do you like? What is your hobbies? Do you have anyone you like or hate? Questions like that,"

"You wish not to know about my past?" he said as he took a sip from his glass. I shake my head.

"I have no need for them, but if in the future I said something that hurts you, I'm sorry so if there's anything or any rules you want to tell me right now, please do so," I said.

There wasn't any talking, is he thinking? 

"There isn't much I can tell you or any rules as long as you're safe," he said as he drink from his glass again, I feel like I've blushed a bit when he's worries about is me being safe.

"Then how about I tell you about myself?" I said wanting to get that out of my head before he notices my blushes.

"No need, I know about you Encre, only what I wanted to know anyway and plus, you are already show a lot about you."
