I Scored Myself A Mate

Mark had been transferred to his room. Outside the door stood Allias with Asmodeus both of them staring intensely at the door while only Theseus was allowed to remain inside while he was dreaming. A few hours had passed and soon it would time for their dinner. They didn't know when the human would wake up but both of them kept standing there none of them willing to budge. 

"This could take days you know." Asmodeus said.

"Then I will be here for days." Allias responded. His arms were crossed over his chest while he aggressively denied to look at the demon. 

"Is he a good person? In this lifetime?" Asmodeus asked and Allias sighed.

"Well what do you think? He grew attached to you just because you helped him. He is not only good he is innocent and a fool. Deciding to do this for you, a demon."

"Well you don't really have to be so aggressive towards me you know? Get me all hot and bothered." Asmodeus joked and winked at him. Allias actually pretended that he was puking making the man laugh.

"You are quite different from the elf king in the stories." He commented 

"Yes. My human experience messed some shit up. Is there a problem with that?" He asked him and raised his eyebrows. "Weren't you locked away somewhere how do you know about me? I wasn't that popular before the war."

"Well I got a lot of time to read and your stories were all time best sellers everywhere in the Veil so, they kinda shoved your silly romance in my face." Asmodeus said.

"I will not let you kill him. No matter what it takes. I will kill you if I have to." He warned him, looking at the demon for the first time in hours.

"I thought you were forbidden by law to use your powers. Not the only display you can do is make little flowers grow and the snow go away. Am I right?" He asked with a grin. Allias gritted his teeth. He did not like this carefree nature of his. He couldn't see if what he was saying was a lie or not, everything seemed to be so vague with him. He said he loved Mark but at the same time he wished to kill him. He was showing no sign of emotion what so ever. Allias didn't like those kinds of people. He reminded him of Achlys but for Mark's good he hoped he was wrong.

The elf king was planning to argued but he didn't have the time to. Ares appeared in the corridor outside Mark's room and looked at them before his eyes focused on Allias 

"It's time for dinner soon. Magical reporters have already arrived. Ea has been nagging me for half an hour to come and get you because he feels awakwsrd but he magic light of their moment capturers. Please, please, please save me and shut Ea up. He acts like a fish out of water. He is stuttering, he spilled two of his drinks and he keeps looking around like someone will jump him." Ares explained with a fed up expression and Allias couldn't help but laugh picturing the event. He hadn't commented on how stupid he found the idea after some thought. This was definitely the most idiotic and annoying night he would have to spent while worrying about Mark as a plus. Having a dinner like this held, just to strengthen an alliance was not a bad idea in all honesty but Allias did not really want to participate in it. Be made a mental note to never get involved in wolf business again. For the good of his mental health.

"Come on then. You need to be in the dinner too. I hope you didn't tell anyone about Alexander." He said remembering the scene. Asmodeus had recuperated perfectly after some time and he had been followed the whole time by Allias who was acting like a very disgusting leech.

"I've been with you the whole time. How am I supposed to do that?" He asked him with a, are you stupid, look as they walked away. 

Theseus on the other hand sitting in a chair inside Mark's room had dozed off quite a few times. The boy looked like he was simply sleeping except for the few times he was mumbling something in his dream. What the elf general had noticed that had been quite weird in the last hours was that as the time went by markings appeared in his arms. He had a black flame at the back of his palm in one hand, while underneath it the drawing of a feather wrapped his wrist as a bracelet appeared second. Now a third marking was beginning to firm but Theseus couldn't really make out what it was yet. 

"Those are familiar markings." He heard a voice and flinched from being surprised. On his side was standing a young boy around the age of fifteen. His skin was deadly pale while it had a grey his to it, his eyes colored a pitch black with no white in them. His hair long and straight until his shoulders black with a green tint to them. Theseus stared at him and stood up. He didn't seem to be hostile as his eyes were only focused on Mark.

"Who are you? How did you get in here?" Theseus asked and the boy turned his head, looking at him with a look void of any emotion. 

"Kage!" Another voice was heard behind him and Theseus turned around, rurpised once more. Now there was another man in the room, his hair cut short, flaming red while his eyes had a golden color. His skin also had a very peculiar color, it was slightly red. Theseus noticed. "You shouldn't appear without master calling you! He is not awake yet!" The older man scolded the boy and Theseus stared at them in distrust.

"I just wanted to see him Ignis, stop being so tense." The boy said.

"I am not tense I just respect our master's privacy as his first familiar I do believe I know better..."

"All I am hearing is muffled noises." Kage said and covered his ears.

Theseus blinked a few times. They were acting like he was invisible. 

"Who are you people!" He called them out, his tone loud.

The strangers seemed to pay him attention for the first time and stared at him like he was the uninvited guest. Allias, you, you're going to pay for the messes you put me through, the elf general thought as he was being stared at.

"We are master Mark's familiars." They both said in unison and Theseus looked at them and then at Mark confused. He plopped back into his chair and sighed.

"Well the trouble never stops does it?" He mumbled to himself.
