Eliad's Talk with Aduninzil



((The first part is pretty much not from the log that I did of the RP but I wanted to start it off with it so it would give more of a start. Also, by using the log, I have formatted it to how I normally would do regular stories. Hope you guys like it either way. ^^ ))

Eliad had waited close to the fireplace. His mind had been troubled ever since he read that letter addressed to him. It was not until shortly after that he had seen Aduninzil at the top of the stairs as usual.

"...It's about time you showed up, Adun," said Eliad.
"It was about time you were found," replied Aduninzil, rolling her eyes.
Not knowing that Cassiah had sighed and propped herself against a pillar, Eliad kept his gaze on Aduninzil.
"We need to talk," said Eliad.
"No, we don't," said Aduninzil, puffing out a breath of air and shaking her head.
"Hm...," said Eliad. "Scared?"
"Yes, sure," said Aduninzil sarcastically. "I'm terrified of a runaway."
"Of family as well, I see," said Eliad in a challenging tone.
"You can't truly call yourself family...," said Aduninzil. "But fine. Go where ever you see fit for talking."
It was then Cassiah wandered up to the hearth so she could check on Eliad. Eliad had moved to walk in order to lead Adun but stopped as he saw Cassiah, purshing his lips.
"I'll...be right back, alright?" asked Eliad. "There's something I need to discuss with someone. I promise that I'll be back."
"Right...," replied Cassiah, raising a brow.
Eliad gave her a small smile, though it was not exactly convincing. He moved to walk towards the back, Aduninzil following him. They reached a hall before Eliad looked around to see if the coast was clear to speak.
"So...," said Eliad, looking at Aduninzil. "How was it that you didn't say anything?"
"No idea what you're babbling about," replied Aduninzil, crossing her arms and inspecting her nails.
"You didn't mention about us to her the last we spoke," said Eliad, resting his hand on his hip gently. "And to think I had to remember it the hard way."
Aduninzil shrugged lazily and rolled her eyes.
"Tell me," said Aduninzil, glancing over. "Why should I tell that wench about anything... It would be a bad thing for me after all to be seen as the sister of a traitor."
"Why are you after her anyways?" asked Eliad, keeping his gaze on Aduninzil. "What did you do?"
"What did I do?" repeated Aduninzil. "She's stood in my way, Eliad."​
"And how so, Aduninzil?" asked Eliad.
"Because of that Aeruthuil filth...," grunted Aduninzil. "She thinks protecting him is a smart idea."
"Is that all?" asked Eliad. "You didn't do anything else?"
"What else do you think I have done?" replied Aduninzil, furrowing her brows.
"Oh, I don't know," answered Eliad. "You're the one who follows in Father's footsteps. I'm pretty sure that you had brought up chaos in one way or another."
"I am chaos, little brother...," giggled Aduninzil, poking him in his chest. "Talking about chaos, Father sent me three of his most trusted to help me, including Zander. You may want to watch out. They'll be paid royally for your head."
Knowing that Zander is possibly an Elite as well as knowing him personally, Eliad had done his best to keep a straight face on. Eliad swatted her hand away gently.
"I will be ready for what ever comes," said Eliad.
"Even if they were to bring you to Father?" grins Aduninzil. "Would you be ready for that?"
"Yes," answered Eliad, nodding as he kept a steady gaze on her.
"Yes, right...," said Aduninzil, rolling her eyes. "That's why you fled in the first place... You're not as tough as you pretend to be."
"That's why I'm still here," said Eliad, glancing away. "I'm training myself to get better. And... This is my home now so I will be willing to do whatever it takes to keep it safe."
"You call this home?" scoffed Aduninzil, raising her brows. "Look around you, Eliad. This is no place for you."
"And you think Angmar is?" asked Eliad, glancing back at Aduninzil once again. "After the hell that was brought to the village? After the hell that happened after our mother was killed?"
"Mother was weak...," said Aduninzil, shrugging. "Pathetic. You should be ashamed of yourself even caring about her."
"She was the only one who possibly could've cared," said Eliad.
Aduninzil rolled her eyes and let out a shrieking laugh.
"Don't be ridiculous," said Aduninzil.
"Just because she wasn't Angmarim?" smirked Eliad. "Is that what it is?"
"She was filth and you know that," said Aduninzil, furrowing her brows. "If you can't see that, then something is terribly wrong with you."
Eliad moved to walk away from her before stopping.
"I'm only taking her advice from long ago," said Eliad. "To keep true to myself and of who I am. I pity you, Aduninzil."
"No need to pity me," smirked Aduninzil. "You will just end up like Mother." She cringed and pretended to gag, "The word 'mother' catches in my throat."
"If I were to end up like Mother, I would be content knowing that it would be for the greater good and to help," said Eliad.
"What ever you say...," said Aduninzil, sighing. "It would be sad to see more of our blood be spilled, but if it's only yours.... Who'd ever care. You know that Cassiah girl does not care for you as much as you care for her, right?"
"She is still...my friend no matter what," said Eliad, glancing at Aduninzi over his shoulder. "A precious friend."
"She would spin her heels, turning back on you to save her precious Ranger!" said Aduninzil, snorting a giggle.
Those words had bothered Eliad but he did not plan to show it towards Aduninzil.
"Whatever she wishes to do, I will respect that," said Eliad.
'​"You've become such a weak man...," said Aduninzil. "Pity..."
"As long as I have things to fight for," smiled Eliad. "Until we meet again, sister."
"Off you go, filth," replied Aduninzil, waving lazily.
Eliad walked away finally.
