She sat there on her animal skin bed… She had requested that she not have anything that tore as easily as satin, Ignotus had found nothing he thought of as suitable, so she took up a vacant dungeon cell, and added her own things. She found it comforting. She had had the bars in the cell door bent so that she didn't have to open it all the time and could just step in and out. She thanked Mailloche after doing so… She had things such as pelts on the floor to keep her feet warm when she walked, antlers on the walls to hang her stuff from, boulders with flat tops so that she could have some places to set stuff, candles to light the room, and wooden shelves for her books. Most of her books were about the nightlife, some were just for studying stuff, like herbs. Yet she always had her hidden books that were of the fantastic heroes and damsels in distress.

"Brezica?" A voice came out of nowhere and a wave of shadow filled her room. She warily peaked her head out from her shadow shield and looked at the intruder. It Koning again…

She let her shield down, except for a layer on the floor. "What Koning?"

"Dey said you would show me to a room… Ignotus said he wanted me down here wit you, to help keep an eye on you." He looked slightly embarrassed.

"I don't need very much protection… Night…" She pulled her soft dear pelt blanket over her shoulders and turned her head to the wall. She was furious at Ignotus for thinking she needed protection. Then she heard the low disappointed gruff as Koning turned away and began walking gloomily. She sat there guiltily for a few seconds, then sat up. "Koning?"

Head pops from the side. "Yes?"

"I'm sorry, I'll show you to a room…" He smiled and she smiled shyly as she got up… When she looked up at him again, he was staring… "What?"

"You're beautiful…" Koning was still wide eyed. Brezica was wearing a see through gown that seemed to make her fly with each movement. She wore a bra and a pair of underwear that were the same dark blue coloration. Brezica didn't know why he was so astounded, she walked around the house like that all the time. They were comfortable.

"Um… Thank you?" Koning shook his head and his mane went wild because of it, he looked away shyly… "Um… okay… Now your room." They passed a couple of actual prisoners, they seemed to smile at Brezica in their old crotchety way, but those faded when they saw Koning right behind her. She took a U-turn and then led him down to a clean cell. "My room is right on the other side of this one, just knock if you need anything." She looked at how empty handed he was… "Did you bring anything to sleep on?"

"No, I couldn't bring much of anyding on my journey." Koning looked so helpless…

"I'll give you some of my things, they are comfy enough." Brezica went back to her cell and got some of the pelts on the floor and some of the pelts from her bed, then went back to Koning. "Is this enough"

"Plenty enough… Dank you" He smiled.

"Um… Just a second…" She turned around and did a long call in her panther ways.

"What was dat?"

"That's for Mailloche."

"Why?"

"You'll see." Mailloche came from around the U turn and gave a curious gaze. "Mailloche, could you make a ditch in the ground in this cell for Koning?" Mailloche nodded and looked at Koning for a second… then stepped into the cell. Mailloche was formed like Écarter and Jeseze. He was a werebear, and he looked more like the bear than ever when he used his ultimate strength. He breathed in deeply and emitted a loud bear roar. Koning grabbed onto the wall, while Brezica stood there, the ground was shaking all around them. The prisoners gave a few angry protests, but they were easily ignored. When Mailloche was done, the whole cell floor, which was once a solid block of concrete, became millions of little pieces. Then, Mailloche made more of a calling roar. Next thing that came was Zote…

"What?"

Brezica spoke for Mailloche, "Can you dig a ditch among this rubble for Koning?"

While Zote's usual response was `Of course I can!', he replied, "I don't know but I can try." Zote did a momentary glare at Koning, but then it went away when he started digging, he loved to dig. Chunks of dirt cam flying everywhere, but he was progressing.

"How long will it take?" Brezica was already bored.

"An hour or two, depending…"

"On what?" She gave him a stern look…

"If you scratch behind my ears." He smiled. Brezica smiled and went up to him and gave him a nice scratch, his leg went thud, thud, thud against the rubble and he howled with excitement. When she was done, he started working twice as hard. He wasn't lying.

Brezica smiled, then turned away, "Come on guys, let's go say `Hi' to Ignotus…" This usually meant, `Let's see what he wants to do.' She walked up the stairs with everybody but Zote behind her and gave a fake smile as she saw Ignotus.

"Hello, my little kitten… you've finally taken the time to see me?" He smiled as he approached her, a cigarette in between his index and middle finger. Brezica watched with a grin as he pulled it up to his mouth and stared at her as he pulled in the fumes of the fag, and then released it, creating unique pictures in the smoke.

"Hn… yes, what do you want with me?" Brezica didn't know the outcome of the answer but realized when Ignotus' grin grew wider… Brezica gave him a disgusted look and turned around, preparing to go to her bedroom.

"Hold on kitten… I still need you to tell me something." Ignotus smiled when Brezica stopped and turned around to look at him.

"What?"

"What happened tonight at the bar? Did you kill that man or did someone else? Because Jeseze told me you had been running from there when he found you." Brezica's eyes widened and she glanced horrified at Jeseze. Jeseze looked weakened and he did a sideways glance to Koning… Brezica began to understand… Ignotus wants Koning so that we can't lie to him anymore…She stared at Koning with a sad look in her eye and kept her eyes on Koning, even when she spoke to Ignotus.

"Yes…I killed him. He was coming on to me at the bar… He wouldn't stop so I took him up to a room and…" She closed her eyes… "Killed him…"

"Have you done this before?" Ignotus was obviously enjoying this… Koning glanced towards the doorway; he didn't want to be responsible again.

Brezica opened her eyes a little and a tear fell from her left eye, the eye Ignotus was seeing. She still looked at Koning… "Yes…"

"Hmm…" Ignotus seemed a little indifferent to us all as he stood there and thought, slowly smoking the cigarette… "Come with me… You and Koning…" Koning gave a pleading glance to Ignotus, but he took no notice and walked into his room. Koning looked at Brezica and started to say something, but she pushed him away and walked quickly into Ignotus' room. Koning… slowly followed.

When the door closed, Mailloche and Écarter looked at each other in curiosity while Jeseze sat on the couch in gloom. Écarter sat next to Jeseze and looked down at the floor with his hands clasped, and then spoke.

"Hmm… I didn't know that little Brez could actually… well… kill zomeone…" Jeseze looked up at Mailloche and then at Écarter…

"She still a little resentful from the last human she ever knew…" He smiled a little bit, "She never did tell me the whole story… I don't think she's told anyone…"

"Do you love her?" Écarter asked… with wary…

"Yep… <sigh>… do you?"

"Would you kill me if I zed yez?" Écarter smiled as he said this….

"No… How bout' you Mailloche?" Mailloche grunted at this… "So all three of us do… hmm…"

"What about Zote? Do you think he loves her az we do?" Écarter had a good point…

"Let's go ask…" Jeseze and the rest got up and walked downstairs, but Jeseze couldn't help but notice the smile on Mailloche's face at the thought of Zote, a wolf, liking Brezica, a panther… Jeseze looked at his companions when they got to the working Zote. He was an American Cheetah, Zote was a Mexican wolf, Écarter was a French Jaguar, and Mailloche… he had no clue…

"Where does the name Mailloche come from?" Jeseze was too curious…

"It comes from ze French language… meaning, tall, big, heavyzet, large, and great. He iz from Canada." Écarter was generous enough to answer for Mailloche and Mailloche didn't mind he just smiled and nodded.

"What do the rest of your names mean?" Jeseze had never known and now was a perfect time to ask.

"My name, Écarter, meanz `stray'… I waz named zat by my foster parents." Écarter seemed quite proud of his name… He had good reason to; his foster family was very highly respected until they were assassinated.

"My name means… Great and Mighty!" Zote popped his head up with a smile. Mailloche stood there and shook his head disapprovingly… Zote's smile faded and he decided to tell the truth…grudgingly… "Stupid and foolish" Was all that he said and went immediately back to digging.

"Haha! Don't worry Zote, I have heard worse. What about you… Jezeze?" Écarter was curious too.

"My name doesn't mean anything… I just know it's my name." Jeseze looked up and wondered… "What does Ignotus, and Koning, and Brezica mean?" He saw Mailloche smile… he seemed to know all sorts of languages… "Tell us Mailloche…" Mailloche's smile faded and he stood uncomfortably against the wall. Then he nodded, more to himself then anything.

"Ignotuz… meanz unknown, ob… obscure, ignorant, and ig… ignoble. It iz L…Latin… Koning meanz `k…king', it iz Afric…can. Brezica is j…just a n…n…name…" Mailloche looked shyly away then coughed for a couple of minutes, he had a deep gentle voice… He was still the strongest of them all, but he had a stuttering problem.

Zote's head pops up, "Bien… He can speak after all" He starts digging again… takes a few minutes, then pops his head back up. "Where's Brez? I need to tell her I'm done." All of them stand there shuffling their feet, except Écarter.

"She went into ze room of no return…" As Écarter plainly put it…

Zote, "Huh?"

Écarter smacks his forehead in disbelief. "Ignotuz' room, remember?"

Zote paused for a moment… "Alone?" Gets smacked beside the head by all but Mailloche, who just stood there and smiled. "Eh! What was that for?"

"She went in there with Koning… The `King'" He and Écarter laughed hysterically… Mailloche glared disapprovingly. He did not like people who mocked others. Jeseze stopped and so did Écarter when they saw his look. Mailloche was like their big brother and they definitely wanted him on their side.

"Hmm…" Zote pondered… "I wonder what they're doing.

2222222222

Ignotus stood and paced around his room, Koning and Brezica stood opposite of each other.

"Why didn't you just go out of the bar?" Ignotus was playing detective.

"I didn't want him to think that he could just do that to anybody…"

"Why didn't you just hurt him badly and get out?"

"I didn't think he even deserved to live"

"What exactly did he do to you?"

"He pulled me in… then kissed me with those greasy hands all over my ass… He practically smothered me… I could smell the alcohol as he tried to slip his tongue into my mouth… He kept me there while I fought for minutes… He was stronger than me and I could feel his need for pleasure that he thought I would give him… When he finally released me, I glared at him and almost walked out, then I had other thoughts… I turned around and smiled at him, then lured him up stairs in privacy were he thought I was gonna fuck him and he just didn't expect what was coming…" Brezica seemed to smile when she thought about how she had killed him. Yet before that her face had contorted in hatred…

Ignotus smiled… "What did you do to him? …"

She stared up at him while she said this… "I unzipped his jeans and fiddled with him. When he was at climax…" She smiled and scissor motion with her fingers, "I of course covered his mouth, then scratched his throat out and clawed out his eyes… The fat bastard died…" She sat on the bed and did a little smirk… "When his friends who were rooting him on at the bar hear his tragic death, they will soon retire their fucking days for at least a couple of years."

Koning stood there, his eyes horrified… "You are not what I expected…"

"Don't judge me…" She gave him a gloomy look and then looked down to the floor as she sat on Ignotus' bed.

"You did exactly what I want you to do… You are a true assassin…" He sat next to her and wrapped his arm around her while staring at his ceiling with a glorious expression. "Just think of the possibilities…"

Koning stood there aghast. "You approve of dis? What is dis place?"

Ignotus smiled as he stood up and walked to Koning… "It's a place where people like you and Brezica can live a life without the torment of feeling alone, here you can choose to be happy… or choose to be dead." Ignotus stood there with a serious look on his face. Then smiled, "Good Night…" he led both Koning and Brezica to his door. He waved as he shut the door behind them, he was a happy demon, and he was.

2222222222

Koning stood there unbelievingly, his eyes wide and his mouth agape… staring into nothing… Brezica gave him shy glances and shuffled her feet… "I'm sorry you had to go through that…" Brezica was trying to cover up for what she had shone as herself in that room. He just stared outward and barely comprehended what she said, then hoarsely whispered…

"I'm sorry for you… and dat man…" He slowly turned his head and gave a shaky smile.

Brezica smiled widely and jumped up and hugged Koning. She was happy that he understood. "I never mean to be that cruel but these last two years before I ever came here were rough on me" She gave a quick grin… "That felt better to tell Ignotus that and then have the guilt of secrets out… But, I don't know what Ignotus intends to do with me…"

"Noding dat will make me have to kill him!" He smiled widely and picked her off her feet and swung her around. She laughed with joy and smiled when he slowly put her down… Their smiles faded when they stared into each other's eyes… They both leaned in and came within inches… Then Brezica turned away and ran down the stairs, almost tripping a couple of times and ran to where the other men stood…

"Um… hi?" They all looked up and saw her… They all had curious and uncomfortable looks. "What?"

"Well… Um… How did ze… ze… ze interview with Ignotuz go?" Écarter seemed a little nervous…

"Um... well I told him stuff I would never tell him in a hundred years and I feel good about it. I guess you could call it a good interview…" Jeseze smiled, but looked a little curious still.

"What did you tell him?"

"Can't tell ya. Just between Me, Ignotus and Koning" Koning's head popped out from the corner and he seemed still a little shocked from the tale…

"What she tell ya amigo?" Zote was curious…

"I can't repeat it widout dying of embarrassment… Just ask anoder day." He seemed more interested into his room. He looked inside and saw rounded ditch in the ground with all of the furs he borrowed placed comfortably inside it. He also saw that lots of the chunks of cement had been made into tables and shelves for anything he may acquire during his stay. They also got a pair of antlers from Brezica's room, for his clothes…

"Hope you don't mind." Jeseze gave a shy glance at Brezica who smiled and just gave shake of her head.

"Nah… I don't mind, I already have to many." She smiled at Koning who looked around his room and seemed quite amazed. Brezica became curious when she saw him pull out some leather folds and pin them against the wall. They were painted on with earth tone colors and were drawn with simplicity but extravagance and meaning. One had two antelope dead on the ground and a lion with stripes over them. Another had two animals, the male tiger and the zebra, mating. And another had the Male tiger and the female lion, and a liger cub in between them. Brezica was about to ask when she thought well not to. She turned around to talk to the guys, but all of them were gone. She looked at the closed door and started to get worried. She tried to open it but it was locked. She started to panic and shook the bars violently. Koning looked at her puzzled for a sec and then jumped in to help. Not even he could bend them. Brezica stopped shaking the bars when she heard the jangling of some keys… She put a hand on Koning's arm and he stopped shaking the bars to. Brezica heard the footsteps, and then she gave out an angry growl. Koning's face contorted into fury and he breathed heavily. They were Ignotus' boots… He peered around with the keys spinning around his finger.

"Good Night, isn't it?" he seemed oddly cheerful.

Brezica put on a fake smile, "Yes, it has been. Yet, it appears we are stuck." Ignotus smiled and came all the way out from the corner and stood in front of the cell.

"Aww… that's a shame." Brezica smiled than growled as she lunged for the keys, missing by just a millimeter. "Uh, uh, uh… you have to do something for me first…"

Brezica looked away and leaned her back against the bars. "What?" She didn't expect what came next. Ignotus came behind her and wrapped a chain around her neck through the bars. "Ko…<gasp>"

Koning about leaped at him, but stopped when Brezica struggled more against the even tighter hold. "Step back or <pulls back on the chain>" Koning glared at Ignotus and growled. He stood exactly where he was and stood unmoving. Ignotus smiled and pulled back even harder, Brezica clung to the chain and twisted her face in agony… "Back…" Ignotus seemed to enjoy this. Koning stepped back, but didn't look away. "Don't even try to roar because all your friends are locked up as well, only they're out cold." Ignotus released a little and Brezica started coughing and clasping to her neck. Then he tightened it so that she couldn't move without hurting herself more. He leaned in and whispered seductively. "I want you to be trained… here he is, you must have sex with him and get good enough until I say you are. Then you are mine. Hear me?" Brezica began fighting wildly and when Ignotus tightened the chains some more, she started to become too weak to fight and she sat to the ground, conscious, but weak. "I want you, for me… But you must learn the ropes… Use him, have him, and then kill him if you desire. Then you will be mine alone." Brezica slowly passed out... her world going black. She felt weight building in her head. She couldn't do anymore. She fell limp and only stayed conscious enough to feel the pain of the chains sliding off.

2222222222

She couldn't make out any shapes, but woke up when she felt a burning on her arm. She shook her head and saw a little ray of light from the sun on her. She pulled away and flattened herself against the wall. The sun was out… Koning stared at her bewildered.

"What's da matter?"

"Sunlight will kill me… What time is it?"

"I just woke up, it's almost sunset."

"Good, yet not, that means the light will be climbing closer to this back wall, where a definite place of shade?" She looked hurriedly around.

"Around dere," He pointed to where there was a wall that had the hinges of the door on it, It was facing opposite of the wall where she was and she had no choice but to walk on the concrete piece tables to get there. "By da way, what did Ignotus say to you last night?"

"I'll tell you later… It's not something that I can face right now…" She stared at him… he stared at her… She would never do Ignotus' biddings… never…

"You can be covered in darkness, but can't touch sunlight… How does dat make life for ya?" Koning flipped a slab of meat that was sitting in the sun; it seemed slightly cooked.

"I can only do stuff at night, that's why some of the guys turned nocturnal. So that we could all be up at the same time… How are the guys?"

"Da guys are still out cold as Ignotus put it… You can see dem dru da cracks." Koning took a large flat piece of concrete and pressed the meat to the ground, a little sizzling sound came. Brezica peeked through the crack between her cell and Koning's. Zote, Écarter, and Jeseze were piled on top of each other in a weird knocked out way. She looked through a crack between Koning's cell and the cell to the left of it. She was sad when she saw Mailloche lying there, chained and muzzled.

"Poor Mailloche… <sniff, sniff. She could smell the meat> Where did you get that?"

"From da cook… he said dat he never would let us starve to det." He turned it over again and put the stone on it again, it sizzled, but sizzled even more when Koning stepped on the stone. Brezica looked famished and was famished, but almost felt like puking. She felt her throat and it stung. She crawled into the dark corner. And put a shadow shield for good measure. Then she heard the jingling again. She growled and cloaked her whole form in shadow except for her eyes, which could easily take light. Then she stepped up to the cage door and found Koning right behind her, growling as well. Ignotus turned the corner and smiled.

"You're up?" He gave her a serious look. "I'll be keeping a watch on you and whenever you do what you need to, I'll be right here watching." He walked away from the cell and still jiggled the keys while smoking yet another fag. Then yelled from around the corner, "It's for your freedom…" Brezica turned away and hit the walls with the side of her fists...

"What was dat about?" Poor uninformed Koning…

"What he told me last night… I need some food, is it done?"

"Yep… Da meat is good." He picked up the slab and put it only flat cement piece. He pulled out a dagger and cut the meat in half. Brezica saw the bloody center and picked up her half with her hands. She tore off a piece with her sharp fangs and felt the blood on her tongue. The meat pieces tasted so warm and fleshy inside her mouth. She chewed slowly and when she found that she was full, she packed her food in the dark corner where it was the coldest. Koning had eaten more than her and seemed quite content. He patted his belly and rested on the furs, he stretched and moaned, just like a real lion, the lazy male… Eating until he eats too much, then letting it all digest as he sleeps uncomfortably.

"You falling asleep?"

"Just for a few hours… Are you?"

"Yep…" Brezica almost jumped out of her seat when a pillow and some furs came straight at her. Koning smiled and went to sleep. Brezica smiled and arranged her pillow and furs. She sat in the cool shade with the wrapped up meat under her pillow. Then fell warily asleep.

2222222222

When she woke up, she clenched her neck, which was still sore. She looked around and saw Koning staring out at nothing, but talking. Then she heard some voices beyond the wall and knew who he was talking to. "Is everybody up?"

"Everybody except Mailloche… I tink he got hit da hardest."

A few voices through the crack… "You alright?"

"Eh? Ze night bloom has awoken, no? How is ze view?"

"Buenos Noches! I smell some meat!"

"I'm alright, the views fine… and thanks for caring Zote." She smiled and Koning gave a smile back. Such… white… teeth… How does he keep them clean? "Koning… What's your secret?"

"Secret to what?"

"Your glittering fangs?"

He smiled… "No lies and your moud stays clean."

Brez thought for a moment "I don't lie… much…"

"Yeah… but you sure do curse like no odder when your angry." He smiled at the memory…

"No… Not ze little Brez… Her mouth iz az gentle az ze breeze." Écarter couldn't believe what Koning was saying was true. It couldn't be.

"Nope…" Zote began to speak, "She's send me a few harsh words, but she can't have cursed."

"Do ya really tink dat I could lie?" Koning had a point and the argument ended.

"Ze little Brez? But how?" Écarter was still trying to disprove Koning.

"It was about the guy I killed, don't think that I killed him for fun now, hear me?" Then she realized the words she had spoken came from Ignotus' mouth as well… `Hear me?'… She stared at Koning and knew what she had to do. All the guys had already replied with a firm, yes, is some sort of language. "Guys… I'm in some trouble."

"We can see that"

"Yet zo are we."

"What's wrong?" Of course Jeseze was the first to get serious. Brezica took a deep breath.

"Ignotus has gone horribly corrupt… He wants me to be with him… but I must undergo rigorous training…"

All of the men say at once, "And…"

"The training is to be sex… with Koning…"

All men turn silent and Koning looks at Brezica, wide eyed and mouth agape.

"Have you?" Jeseze sounded hopeful, yet crushed.

"No… I just need some advice…" She got up and was glad that it was night time… She walked over to Koning and leaned her head against his shoulder. He placed an arm around her hugged her close… "What should I do?" She whispered so that only Koning could hear…

"Does thou have ze plan of ezcape?"

"If not… amiga… do you think you could find a way to get us out better if you were outside of the cell?"

"Do you think you could actually do it with Koning and live with yourself?

Brezica thought long and hard between each answer. "No… My first plan was demolished when I saw Mailloche chained…It would be much easier to find help outside of this cell than in… and I couldn't live with myself if I let us all die here."

Jeseze prodded. "Are you able to have sex with Koning over a matter that does not include love or romance?"

Brezica answered shyly, "Yes…"

Jeseze, "Do you love him?"

Brezica took a long time with this answer… "Yes…" She felt the tight squeeze of Koning's hand.

Écarter took a fake cheery tone, "Then do it!"

"We'll all crash asleep anyways, I promise." Zote was always true to promises… usually.

"He's gonna be watching you…" Jeseze was still unsure.

"I know, I'll just keep him shadowed from us, yet he'll still be able to see. This way I don't have to stare into his blood like eyes…" The jail was silent… Brezica was about to tell Koning something, when she had found their lips together and slightly agape. They stared at each other, and then closed their eyes as they came into each other. She felt his mouth pressure gently then harder each time on her shoulder, to the collarbone, then to the neck… Brezica backed away and clung onto her neck. The chains had cut her skin there… It stung. She looked at Koning who looked worried. Then she contorted her face… she didn't want to cry, but everything came rushing to her. She leaped forward and clung onto Koning. Koning was at first in shock, then he placed his arms around her leaned his head against hers. He could feel her tears on his shoulder and found them almost comforting. She couldn't hold it in anymore and her breaths came out in sobs. When Jeseze peeked through the crack to see what was happening, he became saddened by how much she was hurting. While the others looked, Jeseze sat down and looked at the rows of books… And all the trinkets in her room. He wanted to be the one to feel her convulse from grief… then comfort with a loving embrace… He wanted to be the one that had to teach her how to have sex well… Why does the damn Liger get all the fun whenever I'm here, stuck with a mocking jaguar and a foolish wolf… If they ever do have sex… I'm stuffing this crack…

"Ze poor Brez is full of pain… zo much pain…" Écarter looked deeply saddened, he loved Brezica… But only as a brother would love his little sister. "Ignotuz waz all a lie!" Écarter jumped on top of two moose antlers that were right beside each other. Then he got into a comfortable position and lay there… scowling.

Zote tried to be a little comforting… "At least I'm not the only fool…" They all gave him a sideways glance, and then Zote sat on the fur bed. Then Zote had a thought… "Maybe Ignotus put them two together because they are both skin creatures… While you, me, Écarter, and Mailloche are all… were…"

"That can't be…" Jeseze would not believe that prejudices even went as far as demons… Yet… It was true…

"Zat can't be true… Ignotuz must have zomething bigger planned…" Écarter was the same, but he believed that Ignotuz wanted something out of the relationship of Koning and Brezica… A bond… "He wantz Koning to become attached to Brezica… Zo that he can keep him here!"

Jeseze thought and smiled as the hidden plans unfurled in his mind, "And Vise Versa!" He jumped up… "He wants them both here… with him…"
