--Hey regulus what are you spacing about ?

--....

Marcus has never seen regulus that surprised and focus . Following his eyes thats when he also saw her the young lady in the white horse just like everything about her was white .

From her hair and eyebrows , then the young lady took a turn returning from the path she came .

Now they entered there recommended mansion , beautiful in the inside as it has every room for everyone , they never felt this way as also a table full of evry type of food s prepared for them .

--No touch food first ,master say one must be clean to eat .

Not what they expected on how the knight Warhammer talked but instruction are meant to be followed .

This was the best night they weee to enjoy because something much more darker was about to begin .

Meanwhile at the dukes fortress at the his office John stands looking at the empty black metallic wood chair the one who is suppose to sit there stand tall on the window .

Usinh his eyes which can see as far as he wants to see , his direction is the far down mansion as he looks at the young ones enjoying themselves and then he asks John ....

--Well tell me John , tell me a riddle which brings death after tomorrow.

John replies now wearing his glasses he thinks of the riddle as he looks at him with stone face and then...

--I believe master there is one in particular says I come in many forms whether irony ,love , laughter ,or hate as also am everyone's fate .

The duke asks him another question .

--How many do you think will survive in your point of view ?

--Four !

--Indeed John I see you also know because that is what my eyes are telling me now as they laugh ,talking getting to understand each other .

--And what about the beggers street children how many did you find ?

--11 of at least good talent .

--And in the upcoming events how many will survive ?

--for them it will be two .

--What an evil man you are John if you know of the people who will survive why bring the others ?

--For your entertainment sir .

--Fine then make them much more than what we expect if you can .

--I will master .

He bows and leaves the room .

Sometimes rules are there for some reasons but to some love breaking them as the dog now wanted to bites it's master .

After getting fed Marcus and two other boys wanted to see the dukes fortress as they were much more curious.

So the plan was just to enter there seeing the wonders of the fortress .

Regulus heard there conversion as they wanted him to join but he didn't want to . Leaving her sister and the others to sleep they began their plan looking at the window they were surprise seeing the knight with the Warhammer not there .

The other knights were but not him sneaking at the windows they climb down using there small bodies they were well hidden but. What they didn't know is that the knights left to guard already noticed of there presence but did nothing leaving them thinking they were much more cunning than them .

Walking for an hour as the cold freeses them there teeth's grinding at each other but still despite this they were undernile.

In the end they reached nearing the huge white metallic fence seeing the entrance from a far .

Inside the compound was full of knights but did they care no! , none of them were scared by their numbers .

As they didn't want to be noticed getting through the main gate but suddenly Marcus stumbled upon a rock falling to the ground this made the other boys laugh and also climb above the fence .

While doing this Marcus stood up as he was about to climb above but he was suddenly puten to sleep by an unknown person, touching his neck was a needle falling now for good but as he was getting unconscious he saw something he will remember .

As one of the boys was about to reach the ground he had a sound ...

Bang!

Blood splashing on him a sudden terrifying face he had wondering what was happening slowly turning his head he saw his friends body falling from the fence but without his head .

Caught up in the moment of surprise he was scared looking at his hands covered in blood at first then looking at the body his legs gave up on him .

Now on the ground he screams but as he does this he feels someone behind him a voice speaks ...

--Master said no entering mansion

The knight with the war hammer says this while lifting his hammer above .

Seeing a version of a monster the child was in fear when wanting to ask for forgiveness the hammer weighed down bursting his head bursting also his neck reaching his chest as he was sitting on the ground after falling in fear .

Marcus was surprised as they both didn't feel his presence at all then he also seeing the knight with war hammer walking towards him but he suddenly fell unconscious after the needle took affect .

The next morning in the afternoon Marcus awaks with a scream his sister on his laps sleeping.

Shocked his sister Jane asks him what he is shocked by a nightmare maybe but no, he is scared to the bones his eyes in void colour and in fear body shaking .

The only thing he asks himself why wasn't he killed but The blind girl Jezebel tell him ....

--Whoever made you not climb that fence did well as you would have succumbed to death never to see your sister again .

--Thats a lesson to learn now isn't it Marcus?

--fuck! fuck ! fuck! We just wanted to see the inside nothing more ....why!? Why!? Why did this happen to us .

Marcus thinks about it then asks

--Wer....were you the one that did that to me but how you can't even see ..... ?Don't tell me you can actually...

--No I can't but that's not the issue as you we have new guests another 11 children like us have arrived we are all to gather down stairs butler's orders.
