Thread: .: Paint me black :. [Sinister and Liam Nightmare]

RE . Paint me black . Continuing from our roleplay on skypes! 14515 PM Angry Tea Biscuit - Liam Cypther watched Aiden as he entered, a smile showed under his deep hooded cowl hiding his face, He wore knightly armour which was painted dark green, he wore a bone white robe over it, Though it was all for the show, Cypther had glanced towards the others within the room reaching into their minds with his own reading their thoughts as well as Aidens to see if they were all nervous, which of course a lot of them were, Cypther was a psyker or a mage or wizard as some called him but he knew what he truely was, He also had wings though they were but a pair of two both of them black, words had ran through Aidens mind the voice was calm and cool but sharp as a blade at his throat the voice was Cypthers. Nervous tonight pup? It's nice to see that your father did not put you in a dress again. Sent Cypther. 31916 PM Jodi Bearz The seraphim was hiding backstage when that familiar voice filled his head, reclining on one of the supply crates. Though he knew that voice all too well, he didnt see the man and it startled him. The boy tried to push down all of his negative thoughts, hiding his true feelings from the intrusive mind. Aiden was a shy, untrusting being.. and though he was rather fond of the man, he wouldn't open himself up so easily. He couldnt help but to wonder though.. Would Cypher miss him if he dissapeared? Or would he help his father drag him back to this damn place. Nervous? Me? No way! He lied with his mind, talking back to the second in command with unspoken words. He was sure the other could hear him laughing at that last thought though. Father knew people enjoyed watching a woman much more than a man, and if it meant extra pay.. he wouldnt hesitate. He was being generous today, trying to make sure Aiden was in the right mindset to pull off an excellent performance. I have to say.. I was glad to see this instead of a dress! Pulling his hands above his head, he rested against them.. shutting his eyes and humming to himself while he waited for the show to start. 33525 PM Angry Tea Biscuit - Liam Cypther would smile from the response, looking out onto the stage, He would chuckle inside Aiden's mind, I know you better than you may think child. sent Cypther, He would clap as the last performer finishing their act. 40014 PM Jodi Bearz Aiden froze for a moment, staring at the palms of his hands with a grimm look on his face. I know you better than you may think child. What did that mean? Sure, they talked from time to time.. He would even call him a friend but he really wasn't allowed to time to get to know these people. Ontop of that, He was a bit afraid to get close to anyone here. He didnt like it here.. didnt want to be here! All he wanted was to run, to be free of this place.. and though it probably wouldn't happen, he just wanted to live a normal life. Like every other child that drug hisher parents to this disgusting place. Certainly the winged child was meant for something more than entertaining a crowd at a freak show. His thoughts were cut short by the roaring of the crowd, he could see the last act leaving the stage.. the announcer began his speech, and he immediately knew it was his turn next. His body started to shake, something was wrong today.. he didnt want to face that stage. Drawing in a large breathe, he exhaled slowly enough to try and let his troubles out with it. Tonight he would perform with Isaac, showing off their blade skills in the form of a skit. They were pirates tonight. Isaac would start off as the big heroic captain, performing on the high wire to add to the theatrical part of the show. Aiden was to play the role of the ambushing enemy, playing out their epic battle on the high wire.. never once missing a step, both of them balancing themselves perfectly while they crossed swords. A big, rugged jacket was pulled over Aiden's show attire, giving him the appearance of hunch backed, hook-handed scallywag.All six of his wings were pinned as closely as they could be to his back, it was horribly uncomfortable. The ferocity in his movements was more than a part of the skit tonight.. something was wrong. He wasn't making eye contact with Isaac, but he relentlessly pushed forward with his blade.. anger painted across his face. Aiden! Isaac whispered in a stern tone at the boy, concern painting his face as he tried to hold up his act. There was sweat dripping from his face.. That was odd, the show had just started. Snap out of it and focus Aiden.. Im suppose to defeat you remember? He had muted the mic on his shirt for just a moment, urging the seraphim to snap out of his mood. Though he hid it well.. Aiden caught that bit of red that stained his sleeve. When did that happen? Did he do that? Once more the crowd roared, Isaac leaped forward and stabbed Aiden in the chest.. digging his sword into the side of Aidens jacket. Ah yeah.. Isaac was suppose to force him to walk the plank now. He dropped his own weapon, holding onto the one at his side with his arm.. backing off the edge of the high wire. His fall was pretty convincing, tripping off the edge and falling with his back towards the ground. Just before he could hit the ground, he would tear the rugged coat away.. catching himself with those brilliant wings of his. Three black.. and three white. The crowd held their breath.. Ooo's and awes erupting from the stands. And just like that, the scenery started to change.. he suppose to sing now. Something he deeply hated doing.. but he sang none the less, a tale of gold and pirates. He had no idea that his gift of manipulation was the reason his songs were so famous, but his father milked it for every coin it was worth. 44912 PM Jodi Bearz The crowd was loving it, laughing and giggling when he came to a humorous point in the song, and holding their breathes when it turned a bit dark. His mind wasnt in it, and though the words came out.. he was off thinking of other things. He could see the laughter on the faces of all the children and their parents. And then there was his father.. standing off to the side with a glare in his eyes. He wasnt happy? Aiden hadn't realized how dark his song had turned.. and the crowd was growing uneasy. He even caught a few get up and leave the stage, the fun was over.. There was too much anger in his voice, too much pain. With his gift of manipulation playing into his voice, it was overwhelming the crowd. The look on his fathers face as he yanked at the cords of his mic.. told him he was in for a world of hurt. The Seraphim growled to himself, tearing the mic from his shirt. Only to toss it out at his father.. and if the music wasnt so loud as they ushered Cypher onto the stage to start his act, you would be able to hear the Fuck you Aiden spat from his mouth as he turned to leave. Once he was far enough away that the crowd couldnt see him, he ran.. locking himself up in his room. He leaned against his bedpost, closing his eyes to soak in the silence. It wouldnt last long.. but he would take all the silence he could. Over and over in his head he could hear the crowd roar.. laugh and point. At him! He didnt know who he was.. who his real parents were, or what his fucking purpose was! He had to have been given these wings for a reason, something bigger than slaving away at a freak show. He never wanted to walk that stage again, though he knew father would find a way to force him.. just like he always did. It wasnt long before he could hear the pounding of footsteps coming his way.. there was at least three of them. He knew their scents, Father .. His body guard, and Isaac? What was he doing here? He listened closely, he could hear the arguing.. Isaac was defending him, tyring to tell his father that it was all an accident.. Aiden was young and confused, that was all. He had to laugh at himself for that one, Father wouldn't care, Isaac was better off saving his breath. When the arguing finally stopped, and Isaac was put in his place.. the door crashed open. Isaac was gone now, It was only father and his over-sized body guard. You little shit! Aiden didnt move, It wouldnt help him anyways. He would take his punishment in silence. The hands at his throat, hed felt them before. It wouldnt be the first time.. and he was sure it wouldnt be the last. This was our big night! A chance to get our name out in a big city! Now I doubt half of them will come back after your horrible performance He looked into the face of his son, trying to dig an answer out of him with his eyes. Aiden stared back but his lips made no move to speak.. instead he turned his head to the side, just waiting for it all to be over. An irritated sigh slipped through Marcins lips, and he raised his fist.. unleashing all of his anger into the side of the Seraphim's face. It would be bruised for weeks.. if it wasnt for his accelerated healing. You know.. I should have just sold you to the highest bidder. But no, Instead I took your ungrateful ass into my home, fed you, clothed you and gave you a job! This is the thanks I get for taking care of you huh? You know Aiden.. if you keep this up, Ill take you down to the next slave auction. Im sure there's plenty that would be high coin for that pretty little ass of yours That got a reaction from him.. he was horrified at the thought. Marcin motioned to the big guy with his finger, and he was immediately pulled up by his arms. He wanted to fight back.. but he didnt know how. 50513 PM Angry Tea Biscuit - Liam Cypther would walk into the room the clanking of armour was heard clearly as he did. That is enough... The boy has been through enough without you all ganging up on him like this.. now let him be he is only a child. Cypther would look into Aiden's' father's eyes from behind his deep hooded cowl, small flicks of flames could be seen flicking from the finger tips of his armoured hands. 51025 PM Jodi Bearz Marcins back stiffened at the sound of Cyphers voice. He eyes clearly projected his anger as he stepped closer to man, standing as tall as he could to size the other up. Marcin was an older man, probably around his 50s , hot headed and tall. Standing at around 6'2, he stared right into the eyes of the other. Hes MY son Cypher, You best learn you place! This little shit cost us a good majority of our customers tonight. What good is he to us if he cant perform?! His words were sharp and dangerous, he obviously didnt like it when things didnt go his way. Blind with rage, he failed to notice the fire building around the others hands. Instead he dug into the other with his eyes.. waiting to see just how far his second in command would go to stand against him. 51453 PM Angry Tea Biscuit - Liam A chuckle would come from Cypther's lips. You are filled with greed and only care for yourself and profit.. you care not for your son.. you are no true father. Cypther would use his mind to push Marcin away from him Cypther's words were calm and as sharp as a razor's edge empty of emotion. Do you forget of the power I hold in my finger tips? He would lift a finger sparking a flame which would then dance around his fingers. 52339 PM Jodi Bearz Not a true father?! The anger in his voice rose to a new level, spitting his words out like venom. I could have left the thing were I found him! I could have sold him into slavery! But did I? No, I gave the helpless thing a chance. A bed to sleep in, warm meals and a job! Not that Aiden got any of the money his father made, no.. He didnt get to see a single coin. Your just as ungrateful as he is. You are my SECOND and here you try to order ME around There was a sudden pain forming in his head, and he growled at the man. He knew it was Cyphers doing.. and his eyes lit in pure anger as he reminded him of his little powers. You and him both are more trouble than your worth! He spat out, turning to leave the room with one thing on his mind.. selling the brat. There wasn't much he could to Cypher, the man could overpower him if he really wished to go against him. Aiden on the other hand, with such brilliant wings and that pretty little body of his.. He would be easy to get rid of, and he could see the stacks of coin the boy would bring him. There would be enough to hire someone to deal with Cypher too.. with plenty left to give him a wealthy life. Hell, Maybe he would sell the freakshow too! With these thoughts in mind, he darted past Cypher.. making his way back to his office. 53000 PM Angry Tea Biscuit - Liam The flames within Cypther's hands vanished as he looks at Aiden. Are you alright? His voice filled with concern for him, he moves over to Aiden and put his arms behind his back. I will speak with your father again soon to sort this all out for you that I promise. would let out a sigh as he removes his hood, his hair long, his eyes green as emeralds and his face looking weathered and old but that was only due to scars. 53842 PM Jodi Bearz Aiden hated the whole situation.. Why did Cypher have to get involved? It only added to his embarrassment.. He couldn't let anyone see him like this, so weak and defenseless. He had the power to get rid of his father for good.. he just didn't know how to use it. Normally these little fights with Marcin went unseen by others. Now that Cypher had stepped in, he would have to face his weakness whenever he looked at him. His body flinched instinctively when he felt the hand behind his back, taking a step away from it. No! Dont! The panic on his face was there clear as day. Everything will be fine really! He knew it wouldn't.. he heard the fight they had, those words were ringing in his head still. He had to find a way to make it up to the man, to keep him from selling him away. A shiver ran through his body, just thinking of the pigs that would bid their coin for him.. the things he would have to do! No, He would make everything okay until he thought of a way to break free of the freak show. The side of his face throbbed, and he stared at Cypher with a pleading look.. Dont make things worse, he couldnt form up the words but his eyes begged. 54634 PM Angry Tea Biscuit - Liam Cypther would sigh in response to Aiden's begging eyes. Very well but I will have to speak with him regardless on my actions.. but remember Aiden.. You're special in more ways than you can possibly imagine, but at some point you will have to stand and fight for what you believe in, you'll know when the time comes. Cypther would get to his feet with a grunt, folding his wings around himself and pulling up his hood. I can teach you a thing or two if you ever want to learn come find me. Would leave Aiden's room and head towards his own. 55327 PM Jodi Bearz Aiden was confused by his words.. Special? Yeah, The wings were different by far but he would give anything to see them gone.. to just be a normal kid. Out of all the things missing in his life, he longed for someone to love him. Not for his wings nor for the coin he couldn't bring in, but for himself as a person. He would have that one day.. figure out his purpose for being here, he swore he would. Teach me? He repeated the words, but Cypher was gone by the time he finally managed to get them out. A long, pained sigh left his lips as soon as his door clicked shut. Though he tried to keep the tears back, a few stained his cheeks anyways.. and he wiped them away before climbing into his bed. His wings wrapped around him easily, hiding him from everything he hated. He didnt sleep.. but waited for the sun to go down. 63338 PM Angry Tea Biscuit - Liam Cypther placed down candles in his chamber lightening them then he began to walk a spiral speaking works of an unknown species shutting the room of any observation making everything inside not appear not even himself, He would nod to himself as he finish and sits down folding his legs mediating in the silence. 64207 PM Jodi Bearz Aiden lay still in his bed for what seemed like hours.. just watching the light dim in the windows. It was no surprise that his father stationed his little body guard right outside his door, they didnt want him getting any dumb ideas. He couldn't stay there forever though and as soon as he turned away to take a leak, Aiden lifted the trap door at the top of his part of the caravan.. sneaking through the roof as quietly as he could. Wich one is Cyphers.. He whispered to himself, staring out at the other mobile-home like buildings. For a moment, he kept himself completely still.. listening to the sounds around him. In the car next to him, his father snored no doubt sleeping away his busy day. Cypher was hard to find, but as soon as he started chanting.. Aiden immediately knew it was him. And after a while, he could feel that all too familiar presence of his. It was easy to get over to his car, most of the other performers were already in their cars resting. Using his darker wings to cover him, he banged at the top of Cypher's cart with his fist. Cypher!.. Let me in? He tried to whisper, but stay loud enough for the other to hear him. Click to expand...
