Lucy Wickshire 223 Bk 2: Chapter Two 6

"You called for me." he said after a bow.

"Sit." she said and he did as told.

"What you gained from the emperor's shed, can you communicate with it?" she asked and Walter paused.

"What I gained?" he seemed confused.

"Do you think I sent you to the emperor's shed or the power?"

"Then what?"

"The power is a plus. Still, the true reason is for that ent.i.ty. Can you speak with him?" she asked and Walter nodded in his confusion.

"Tell it, if it does not come out, I will kill you." she said coldly and he froze.

"I give it five seconds." she said and Walter felt the temperature in the room sink.

"What?"

"Three seconds..."

"My lady...!" Walter was actually scared even though she had no weapon on him.

"Oho? You are quite something, Lucy Torgenn. Or do you prefer Lucy Wicks.h.i.+re?" a voice seemed to fill the room from no particular direction.

"I gave you someone you found satisfying, so you owe me a favour." Lucy said.

"You sound as though we have met before." the voice said.

"Guardian o the emperor's shed?" Walter asked the voice.

"We speak again, little owner." the voice greeted in response, "This little girl of yours sure has a way with people."

"Yet you are not a person. As such, I don't expect this negotiation to go well." Lucy answered.

"You already threatened to kill him. It was sure to go well the moment I came out. You must have heard of me to know which b.u.t.tons to press. So, tell me little girl, what can I do for you?" the voice asked.

"Walter is going to the black keep to meet a person who claims to know you best. You must help him gain that teacher." Lucy said.

"Oho? You want to give my little owner to someone else to teach? Why would I help you do that?" the voice said, seemingly amused.

"Walter needs to be trained by him to qualify to be a disciple of the Black Hand. He can teach Walter how to better use that power you handed to him thereby helping me with my goals and you can get to meet the man who killed your last owner." Lucy said and the temperature of the room sunk to dangerous levels.

"Oh? It seems I struck a nerve. Then we have a deal." Lucy chuckled.

(guys, I think I am ready to enter into a routine. That does not mean I am back fully, it means since I have acc.u.mulated chapters on patrëon enough, I can comfortably give you guys a few chapters a week. Happy reading!)
