RE The Answer Is Right Beside You Yuna Raitachi's 1x1 Akila Picsnormalsherazardlzpsc39ac02b.jpg Picsnormalsherazardlzpsc39ac02b.jpg Picsnormalsherazardlzpsc39ac02b.jpg ...Wait. Why is he bowing his head to you? Isn't that backwards? A surge of guilt shot through Akila but much like Sefu, she kept it hidden away from her eyes or face. It was nice to hear that if nothing else, he'd finally accepted the concept of having a bodyguard. That alone was definitely a blessing. Thank ... Ra? Probably. One of the highest ranking deities for sure was whom she was trying to look for, as it were. The slight pause that hovered between the two did make Akila slightly nervous. Had she said something wrong? Had he figured her out so fast? No, no. Don't think that way. Stay calm. Panicking now will make him think something is up. Sure enough, he didn't ask any odd questions which could have made her misspeak and give herself away to him. If anything, he complied and answered the questions she had inquired about. A slow nod left her head as she let them all repeat in her mind a few times. Very well. Do you need to gather or prepare somehow? Or are you ready to head out now? The more things Akila could find to occupy herself with, the better. It'd continue to ensure she stayed hidden. It wasn't just her hiding her gender that the warrior was anxious about. Oh no. She had broken many other traditions in the process. Even to this day, Akila had refused to shave her head. Her views ... she just couldn't agree with the customs. So the hair upon her head was very real and not the wig people typically wore. She'd deceived and lied to so many people in order to keep this guise, including the Pharaoh. The fact it had worked so far made her a bit more guilty. But prior to this life, she had been but a slave. Needless to say, Akila wanted to change her life for the better. She'd never dare make a move against the Pharaoh or his family. But she would strive to better her own status. And if that included taking all the steps she'd done, so be it. That all being said and thought, when her right time did come ... she knew the weighing of her heart would likely go horribly amiss. The thought alone made her shiver, causing Akila to quickly shove the idea and images away. Remaining near the door, Akila silently waited for a reply and to know whether to remain in the room or leave for just a bit to allow Sefu to prepare.

RE The Answer Is Right Beside You Yuna Raitachi's 1x1 Sefu could not shake the feeling that there was something off about Akil, he hid it well from his facial expressions but his body language betrayed this. Was it something to do with him? Did he have some sort of issue with the prince? Sefu remembered that he implied that he didn't want to be his body guard so it maybe possible, but what could he have done to insight this negative feeling before now? Was he intimidated by his status or power? That was highly unlikely considering that before now he was part of the Pharaoh's body guard team, he was used to being around the most powerful man in the land of Egypt so Sefu's status was unlikely to phase him. He couldn't be sure, Sefu did not like that, so again he would let it go, but the questions were beginning to gnaw away at him, causing him to gradually become more and more curious. Once again he realised that his train of thought was taken outside the means of their conversation and he snapped back into attention. I am ready to go now he replied feeling somewhat guilty that he almost didn't hear the question, although he didn't understand why he cared about Akil's opinion so soon after meeting him. He was usually a good judge of character immeadiatly upon meeting them, or at least he was decisive, whether it be good or bad, but with Akil it was different, there was so much mystery about this man, and he even couldn't decide if that was a good thing or not. Whatever it was, he did not feel the least bit threatened by it, and that was good enough for now. He took a few steps towards Akil and nodded indicating that it was time for them to leave.

That alone made her want to turn and run before he could further inquire on what he was missing. But despite the temptation entering her head, she didn't bare begin to go through with it. Her ankles didn't tense or threaten to pivot and dart away. No. She'd already announced herself as the new bodyguard for the Prince. Now it was time to play that role out. Thankfully, he didn't pursue trying to figure anything out. An inward sigh of relief echoed in her head as she nodded in agreement. Akila would wait and allow him to walk further ahead. Once he took a few steps forward, she went right behind him. It was where her place had been with the Pharaoh, never beside and certainly not in front of Sefu. Though Akila had gone to several of these meetings in the past, she managed to let Sefu enter first. The room itself was big enough to hold ten people if ever needed. Usually, however, only about half of that amount showed up. So when more than the typical amount came into view of her eyes, Akila couldn't help but wonder why that was the case. Had something else occurred? This was beyond the norm. And even if Sefu didn't feel uneasy from this new sight, she sure did. The tension and atmosphere were all enough to tempt her into drawing out one khopesh and ask what was going on. But she stopped, keeping her hands and tongue still. Besides, she may very well be merely over-thinking. The possibility did remain in her mind as did the nagging sensation that she needed to act and speak up. Still, bodyguards - while higher in ranking than slaves - weren't much more in the end. Even talking out of turn could be something to be punished for. It irked her but she would continue to comply and obey with the rules of society. Once Sefu took a seat, she stood behind him, her eyes staring ahead of herself. They weren't focused on any sole individual ... yet. But she could alter that if push came to shove.

RE The Answer Is Right Beside You Yuna Raitachi's 1x1 Sefu exited his room, walking down the stone hall way, noting that he was followed closely by Akil, he still didn't feel right about this but, it was the nature of his duty, so he tried to not let it bother him too much. He felt somewhat nervous about what lay ahead of him though he did not allow himself to show it, the war meeting was usually quite routine, generals making their reports, situation on the battle field, Sefu's opinon that they would pretend to listen to and not follow through. Though for some reason, he could feel a great amount of tension in the air, even before he walked into the room, there were a lot more people in there this time. There were the usual generals but this time there were some people he didn't recognise, they appeared to wear the usual arrogant expression that high ranking noblemen had, but something just wasn't settling about the room. He looked back up at Akil, who looked just as tense as he felt, so it's not just me then he thought turning back to the room looking around, exchanging the usual pleasantries with the various generals and advisors who paid their respects to him and his father, wishing him a fast recovery and similar other things. The room became silent once again as one of the oldest generals in the room began his address, Sefu remembered that his father told him that they had served together in a great battle for the capital and he'd even saved the at the time future Pharaoh's life that day. Sefu grew up with a great amount of respect for General Akins, although he was certain that he did not feel the same way, the man respected guts, determination, none of these traits were commonly seen in the Prince, he was generally considered to be too inexperienced to be in his position. Despite this, Sefu continued to listen, in the hopes that one day he would gain the general's respect.

The same applied to any future plans. But that was what the gatherings were for, partly to discuss any alterations that would need to be made, what they would include, and other such similar concepts. Her eyes slowly studied all the members within the room, taking note of appearances and faces before looking back ahead of her again. Most were, indeed, the same people she'd seen before. But there were definitely new individuals that had never shown up before. Why was that? It seemed like a slightly odd time to allow newer faces into such meetings. But .. that wasn't her call. So long as none were foolish enough to make any rash attempts, Akila cared not. Her eyes managed to sneak a quick glimpse towards Sefu and noted that thankfully, it wasn't just her who was uneasy about this. That was definitely a relief. It meant she wasn't becoming paranoid. If anything, her gut instincts were likely as strong as ever. Still, she made no aggressive moves. At most, her hands remained by her sides, ready to unsheathe a curved blade if push came to shove. She wouldn't like it but between failing her obligations or not .. well ... the choice on what she should wish to do was more than obvious. Akila had given her word not only to Sefu but his father. Her life would gladly be given up for his. That was the job of a bodyguard, after all. She'd known and understood that ever since sneaking her way up the ranking society of Egypt's society.

RE The Answer Is Right Beside You Yuna Raitachi's 1x1 Sefu Sefu sighed as Akins finally finished his address and another general had began talking about the large number of casualties on the western front, and that is where the Egyptian prince tuned out. He was not interested in general Bastet's long winded story about how he needed more of the Pharaoh's army to leave their posts and march into all out war with a simple rebellion that could be ended quickly with the right tactics, not that he listened when Sefu told him this, but that was one of the other reasons he scarcely paid any attention to him when speaking. Resting his head on his hand, rolling his eyes only keeping them half open instead of paying attention to his surroundings like he should have been. Whilst prince Sefu has pretending to stay awake an unknown man had slipped into the room, adept at hiding in plain sight, he was dressed very similarly to the generals and advisers, so slipping in and out undetected was not an issue for the hired assassin. He was not told who it was that hired him, for secrecies sake he was contracted through an agency, thus protecting the identity of the client. He was however sure that it was someone within this room, they wouldn't miss such a high profile job such as this, and to make sure it was done properly. Unsurprisingly the Prince appeared to have a brought a body guard with him, this hardly mattered he wasn't going to make a difference, the prince would be dead long before anyone realised and by that time he would be gone. He couldn't help but smirk a little at how easy this job had been, stepping closer he was almost in range to strike, it would appear as though someone casually walked by for the amount of time it took. His heart began to race, becoming more excited as he did every time he was about to kill someone, he licked his lips as he neared the unsuspecting prince 'farewell prince Sefu' he thought just as he reached striking range

She caught a few terms every now and again but wouldn't strain herself to listen. That was what Sefu was supposed to be doing, regardless of how boring or otherwise these damn things were. Besides, a new sight - person rather - caught her attention. And while he looked like another of the generals, there was something off about him. The late arrival was indeed one. But .. it wasn't only that. There was an almost sinister and even foreign aura around this man. And she wasn't liking it. Her eyes began to stalk and follow the newcomer carefully. It may very well be a mistake, she knew, to just up and forget of everything else. But if her instincts were correct, this was the right thing to do. Akila knew it'd look so weird for her to be gazing intently at supposedly one of their generals. The next action would only raise more eyebrows if not get a few more reactions. Both hands went to her sides as she unsheathed the two khopeshes. Ignoring the stares she was no doubt getting by this point, her eyes narrowed as the individual licked their lips. That plus the very fact they had been heading towards Sefu ... yes. Her gut feelings had seemed to be right after all. The two curved blades trapped the man's neck in an X shape, not yet beheading him. But it was allowed to be seen how simple the task could be accomplished if she wished to have a change in heart, mercy, or both. You're not really one of the generals around here, are you? She inquired, guiding him back and away from Sefu. You've got a lot of nerve making an attempt not only in broad daylight but around so many witnesses, you know?

RE The Answer Is Right Beside You Yuna Raitachi's 1x1 Sefu Assassin Man The assassin cursed inwardly as he felt the body guard's blades form and X across his throat threateningly. Feeling himself being guided away from the prince presumably for his own safety, he shot the prince one last look of contempt, making sure he could see him do it. 'So the body guard is somewhat capable' he muttered to himself, as he began to be interrogated. What gave me away? he replied to his question, he was pretty sure it was rhetorical but he always did enjoy frustrating people almost as much as he enjoyed ending their lives. What can I say? It is the daring moves that puts the food on the table he remarked with a casual tone, his head constantly turning or looking away from the man who appeared to have arrested him Not like anyone would have noticed though... except you he commented trying to get a good look at Akil, though it was a hard thing to do. So how many of you are there guarding him? he asked, his tone still casual, as though 2 sharp knives resting against his throat was nothing to be concerned about. Because I cannot confirm how many of us are running around he stated with a smirk Sefu looked up from his daze when he heard a man curse loudly, suffice to say he was shocked to see a strange man he'd never seen before standing over him, with Akil standing behind him, with both khopeshes held at his throat Akil wha- he tried to ask but he could feel his voice trail off as he watched his personal guard drag the man away. It took a few seconds for him to realise but the man that Akil was threatening was mere seconds away from ending his life, maybe even less then that. He leaned over his knee's his breath intensifying and his hands trembled as the shock set in in that this was for real, people were actually trying to kill him. It wasn't something that he could joke and pass off any more, Akil just saved his life. He had felt such resentment for the man and his father for forcing this on him, claiming that it was the same as being treated like a child. Shakily he got to his feet, his whole body trembled now, ignoring the confused looks he received from the various generals, he hurriedly dashed out of the room. Surely they could understand what had just happened, though he doubted they would cut him any sort of slack for acting unprofessionally like that. He walked a few paces down the hall away from the meeting before his legs gave out and he collapsed on the hard sand stone floor, wincing in pain.

Akila replied without missing a beat. Just as the assassin had his own ways of doing things, the same applied to the guised male. Still, the select few tell-tale signs continued to replay in her mind. No one dared to approach Sefu like that or, if they did, they would explain why or what for. The look in his eyes and the feeling he'd given off, however, only added a stronger instinct something was off about him. But the true giveaway had been the sight of him licking his lips. There hadn't been any food around so it'd been a more than fair assumption that he was preparing to do something devious. In this case, it had referred to taking away of a life. To be more exact, Prince Sefu's. Her peripheral vision caught the soon-to-be heir dart out of the room while her ears heard the hint there were more assassins around. Her eyes narrowed at that very knowledge. Even if she could have gotten an exact number of how many others were around out of the man, time was now against her. And the last thing that Sefu should be doing was being alone. Well ... you all but confessed. May Anubis weigh your heart appropriately. And with that, she pulled the khopeshes, beheading the man. It would have been done, even if not by herself. It was a bold verdict, yes. But anyone else in the room with decent hearing had heard the man and understood her actions. Sheathing the newly bloodied blades away, Akila darted out into the hall, sighing softly as she found that at least no one else had caught up with the young man. ... Prince? She inquired, kneeling beside him. Are you alright? At worst, he merely seemed very shaken up though Akila couldn't blame him. To see such a thing and live through it had to be incredibly terrifying. Forgive me but you can't be alone. I was given the generous hint that there are more around. So if you don't wish to go back to the meeting, so be it. But now I really can't leave your side.

RE The Answer Is Right Beside You Yuna Raitachi's 1x1 The assassin smirked as Akil spoke, feeling no fear at the prospect of his impending death or remorse for his actions, he was not a man who shared the common faith, rather any faith at all, besides faith in his own abilities. He did not see himself as a man of his will like everyone else in his order he believed that he was a tool of his masters will, and thus his heart could not be judged as a such, as his heart was not his own. He did not reveal this fact in his final moments however, chosing instead to mock his exectutioner rather then assist him more then he already did. His death at Akil's hand now would be a mercy compared to merely locking him up and his order catching up with him for failing his master. A wide smile crossed his lips and he let out a feint chuckle as his life was taken away, his blood stained the floor as his head rolled to a stop before his body hit the ground, dead, an ironic end to his long career of murder. Sefu groaned in pain rubbing his rear end gingerly, looking up as he heard Akil speak and tentitively smiled up at his body guard yes Akil I am fine he replied, his voice ringing with annoyance as he tried to stand up, to no avail, his legs still jellified as he came to terms with what just happened, he was not frustrated with Akil but with the way his body felt unwilling to cooperate with him. He sighed looking back down at the leather sandals that wrapped around his feet I almost died just now he finally replied after a long awkward silence now I really do owe you my life Akil he turned to face the man knealing beside him I am sorry for how I treated you this morning, I thought of you as a mere annoyance, a shadow my father put behind me because he still thought of me as a child, but I was wrong he paused looking down again struggling to find the words to say, before giving up trying to think of anything more elegant, turning back to face him Thank you.

In fact, that assassin was far too calm. If Akila hadn't known better, she'd swear he'd had a staring contest with Anubis seconds before her blades removed his head ... and somehow won. Her head shook as she forgot of the eerie male. That was over and there were far more pressing matters to attend to. The smile that she saw from Sefu helped snap the bodyguard from her thoughts. There was, at least, one thing she could silently thank the assassin for. He'd helped give the Prince a wake up call he desperately needed. Normally such tactics weren't ... a good thing. But gods help her, Sefu had seriously needed this, to take her and his own life far more seriously. And now, he did seem to get that much. Upon noting his feet failing to cooperate, Akila quietly took an arm and let it rest upon her shoulder. She stood up and allowed him to use her body as a form of leverage so he could get to his own feet. It's fine. Better to understand and see these things for yourself later than never. I can't say I'm content on how it was done ... but I am glad the message was given to you all the same. Now then .... Her eyes glanced around before looking back to Sefu. Did you want to head back to your quarters? Or did you have another destination in mind? Regardless, she had been given ample hints that the last thing the bodyguard should do was let the Prince be alone. If anything, she wondered if someone else should be assisting her keep an eye out for out of place figures within the palace. If nothing else, this would likely need to be reported, eventually, to the Pharaoh. That made her inwardly sigh. He wouldn't like the news, she knew. Especially with him practically on his death bed. But of all the people that definitely had the right to know, the leader was certainly one. And not just because he ruled over Egypt, but the event had involved his only heir. Any father would want to know such news. Liking it, of course, was a completely different matter. .... Or ... should we tell your father now? She added after a slight pause, her ankles tensing. Regardless of his answer, Akila prepared to guide him wherever he desired.
