Vision Of Escaflowne Fan Fiction ❯ God Of Destruction ❯ a little trouble ( Chapter 3 )

Two men approached him from either side. One was holding a sword but the other was holding a very primitive spear. Both were probably twice the size of Dilandau and he never was a short person. They had to have been at least 12ft tall either that or Dilandau had shrunk upon his arrival.

"Halt! State your name and business!"

"And who might it be that needs this information?" Dilandau hissed in return.

"We guard this diminutive settlement from intruders like you. Most of the people who live hear are refuges from wars in other countries and are quite suspicious of strangers. Now don't make me repeat myself again. What is your name and what is your business!?"

Dilandau smirked "My name is of no interest to you at this moment and my business is only to find food and shelter here. We are along way from any other form of civilization of any kind why else would I be here you idiot!?"

"You're a real smart ass! I don't know why I should even let you pass! I should just kill you on the spot! I'd only have to sit on you in order to do that! But I do have orders to let travelers pass so you may go. There is a small inn at the end of this road called the Black Magic Inn you'll find everything you need there. We'll be watching you so you make one false move and your history!"

Dilandau just laughed as he started walking down the street to the inn they had spoken of. Even though the guards were twice his size, were armed, and were making threats he still showed no fear and that was enough to make the guards very nervous. His laugh was that of a cruel monster, one who knew he would not be beaten so easily. He was a demon and they realized that to late to be of any use to anyone. As Dilandau was walking by the guards he took the spear one of them was holding without them even realizing it. A few steps later when the guards had moved right next to one another he spun around a hurled the spear with all his might at the two of them. It went through the back of one of them and all the way through to pierce the heart of the second. They both fell the ground dead, blood oozing from the area where the spear entered.

Dilandau grinned and continued to walk towards the inn, chuckling as he entered the building.

When he entered the entire room went silent. Every type of person you could imagine was there. From little children to roughed up looking mercenaries and they were all giants. The children who were probably only around 7-13 were easily the same height at Dilandau was. Everyone was staring at him like he was a little green alien with bulging bug eyes. He looked around the room once and headed towards the front desk. The place had to be a pub and hotel combined. That would be the only way that so many people would gather in one place.

He had to start pushing people out of his way just to get to where he was heading. It was very annoying being so small compared to everyone else but at least he could dodge through the crowd that is if he was actually going to move out over their way just because they are bigger than him.

As he was making his was to the front desk a fight broke out in the far corner of the room. People had started yelling and cheering and placing bets on which the winner would be. The fighters were two girls much to Dilandau's amassment. The first girl was about 9ft tall and looked very angry. Her face was all red. Wild and tangled red hair was flying around in front of her face as she tore her way through the audience towards her victim. The other fighter was really short compared to everyone else here. She was 5'8 and had dirty blond hair tied up in a ponytail. She hardly even came up to the waist of the other girl but she had no fear in her eyes, in fact she looked bored.

From listening to the other people talking about odds on the fight and such he found out that the taller one's name was Tamiku. She had a short temper and loved to obliterate anyone who gave her a hard time or just got in her way. She was a nasty tempered demon, as one of the people who betted on her said. The other girl was called Karacoo. She was normally very even tempered but she trusted no one and believed in nothing so she would fight anyone who challenged her if it meant that she would get money or a free bite to eat. She had nothing else. Karacoo was a great fighter and was champion fighter of the entire town. Most people were betting on her.
