Ch. Two: A Coincidence?
Second update day...
*Seto's P.O.V*
"C-Come o-on." I stuttered trying to form a fireball in my left hand. Than I feel my body begin to shiver and shake. My mana supply is big, but focusing on just this is draining it faster than I thought. I let the spell die out as I start to pant. My main problem is that my body isn't as physically strong as it use to be. My body needs to be able to take doing the spells and it can't anymore. I let my arms lay limp in my lap as I lean against the wall. My stomach growls again. It has to be nighttime by now...it has to be. I hear the party upstairs, they are loud. I wonder what it is for, my master never told me that. Than I hear voices, and footsteps. Are people down here? Why? Than I hear my master's voice.
"I assure you that my slave isn't one. I would have known." He said. Known what? My door opens and I look at them. My master, and two scary dudes with weapons and armor on.
"Get up Seto. They need to do an inspection." My master ordered. I stand up slowly. Inspection? Inspection of what? One of the men grabs my arm and the other pulls out a device.
"W-What i-is th-this?" I stuttered. The device beeps several times when they point it at me. I stare at it, realizing what is going on. That's a magic detector....oh no. Oh crap.
"It seems your slave is one." The device man said. Brice looks at me.
"Seto? A wizard? That thing must be broken." Master Brice said. The guy who grabbed me, grabs my arms.
"Seto....Seto Azdel? You're him?" He asks. I stare at him, not responding. I need to get out of this situation and quick. He pushes me against the wall, my feet tripping over the chain as he does. "Seto Azdel was a very powerful, legendary wizard who supposedly died from a tragic accident around four years ago."
"I-It mu-must b-be a c-co-coincidence." I stuttered. He narrows his eyes at me and I look away.
"Whether you are Seto Azdel or not, we still have to kill you. Can't have any wizards slip through." The other man said. Fear rises in me, no. No. I look at Brice and than at the ground. Why do I expect for my master to help me? Why? Masters can kill slaves whenever they want and get no punishment for it. I take a few deep breathes seeing the device guy pull out a sword. My eyes widen and I struggle a little.
"Make this easy, wizard scum." The guy said. I see Lord Brice leave the room. I push against the guy who is holding me, but I'm not strong enough to do anything, I can't fight back. I'm too weak. I close my eyes, pushing against the guy. My arms get pinned against the wall as I feel something sharp pierce into my shoulder. I gasp first and than I scream. I suddenly fall on my knees as I feel warm blood soak up my shoulder and shirt. I open my eyes, grabbing my injured shoulder, I see the other two guys on the floor. Huh? My master comes into the doorway and his eyes widen.
"What did you do?!" He yelled at me. I flinch and retreat into a corner.
"I-I d-don't k-know." I stuttered. My hands glow purple suddenly. I close my eyes, wanting this to stop. I hear the sword get yanked out of my shoulder making me scream. I open my eyes seeing Brice grabs my throat and pushes me against the wall. He squeezes my throat, cutting off my air supply.
"I'll just kill you myself than." He snapped. I try to get him off me, but my vision is already blurring. My bleeding shoulder isn't helping my case. I close my eyes, focusing on a different place in the room. Than that stomach drop feeling comes back as my air does as well. I stumble back as my feet hit the ground and lean against the wall, staring at Brice who is in the corner, shocked. He looks at me and stands up, facing me. The other two guys are regaining consciousness. I flinch when Brice jumps at me. I grab the mirror and push it at him, making him break it and he screams as broken glass and blood cover him.
I run out the door, but the dizziness is hitting me. I cough a few times, grabbing my injured shoulder. I run upstairs, hearing those two following me. I push guests aside, running towards the exit, hearing those two scary men yelling my name. I can feel myself trembling. But I was actually able to do a teleportation spell successfully, but I feel so drained and dizzy because of it. And it also may be the blood loss getting to me. I suddenly trip over my feet again and fall face first into the floor again. I yelp in pain. I squeeze my eyes shut, withering in pain. I push against the floor, my left shoulder giving out almost instantly due to the wound. I see the exit, its so close!
I try to get up, but someone jumps on my back pushing me back down on my belly. My wrists are grabbed and pinned against the floor, Aiden grabs my hair and pushes my head against the floor as he sits on my back. I groan feeling the weight crushing my spine. He chuckles.
"Ahh man. You were so close to freedom, Seto. So close." He said. I grit my teeth at him. He grabs my left shoulder and leans against it making an unbearable burning sensation sting through me. I groan loud and struggle slightly under him. He pushes down harder against my shoulder. "But you don't get to have your freedom ever again." I ball my fists, narrowing my eyes at Aiden. I close my eyes, I hear screaming suddenly and darkness takes me.
