An Elf
An Elf
A few hours later it was pitch dark outside and John was sitting in his shack looking at his access band that was in front of him on the floor wondering if everything that just happened was real.
Honestly, he found it hard to believe that he, a guy from the slums had just spoken with not only the human Empress but also the elven queen, then there was the fact that the most famous human female player of Genesis, Blue Ice Queen had been drinking hot water in his very shack.
While he was lost in thought a knock came from his door before an unfamiliar voice asked.
"Mr. Michaels?"
John got up and opened the door to be presented with a smartly dressed male elf standing outside with a smile on his face.
"Can I help you?" John asked.
"Pleased to meet you Mr. Michaels, my name is Ascal Daemys, I am the diplomat of the Elves stationed here in the human empire."
"Saesa omentien lle" (pleasure meeting you) John replied in the elf tongue making Ascal smile.
"Her majesty informed me that you knew some of our language, but it is always a nice surprise to meet someone who has taken the time to learn our language or customs."
"I am afraid I only know a little of your language and nothing about your customs Mr. Daemys."
"That is fine you will no doubt pick some up during your stay with us, speaking of which her majesty instructed me to come pick you up so that I can drive you to the airport where your plane is waiting, have you packed everything you need?"
After speaking Ascal looked to see if there were any suitcases John had packed but saw nothing.
"There is nothing for me to pack except this." John said before grabbing a cloth and then bending down to pick up his access band before wrapping it in the cloth.
"Excuse me if I am wrong but was that a MK VI Access Band?" Ascol asked in surprise.
"That's what Tia told me."
"I was under the impression they had all been destroyed."
"That's apparently what was supposed to happen, but it seems someone thought it was a good idea to keep at least one around and pass it onto a school student." John replied as he stepped outside his wooden shack and closed the door behind him.
He then turned to Ascol and spoke.
"Ready when you are MR Daemys."
"This way please." Ascol said before leading John towards an expensive looking electric car parked not too far away.
"Please after you." Ascol said as he held the back door open for John who climbed in and was soon followed by Ascol.
The car started up and slowly moved away towards the airport.
What neither of them noticed, or maybe they just did not care, was that someone had been watching them since Ascol had arrived and only showed himself after they drove away.
It was a young man around John's age who was carrying a shopping bag with a dead rat inside.
"I should inform Dean about this." The young man said under his breath before dumping the rat in the basin of water and leaving.
***
In the center of Dawnscape city where the sky was illuminated by skyscrapers, young men and women in fashionable clothes were going in and out of bars and clubs having fun.
In one of the most popular clubs in the city in the VIP section Dean and his cronies were laughing and drinking while being accompanied by scantily clad women who were faking excitement as the men touched them so that they would get more money.
"I tell you, everyone claimed that rare spawn was hard and that no one would be able to handle it solo, but guess who managed it the first time?" Dean bragged while groping a woman's breast that was on his lap before having some of his drink and continuing.
"That's right you're looking at him and the loot was top tier also."
"Haha of course boss no one is better than you." One of Dean's cronies said kissing up to him.
"Damn straight, there is a reason I am the number one in this city." Dean said laughing before forcing the woman to kiss him.
A few seconds later he pushed her off his lap before saying.
"Go get me another drink bitch, earn your keep."
The woman left with a revolted look on her face though it quickly vanished when another guy passed her going through the door.
"Mark you're back, did you deliver the gift to that idiot ratshack? After all he is treating us all like he always does, come grab a drink." Dean said before laughing and waving around a credit card as he noticed the new guy who had entered.
Mark grabbed a drink and had a swig before saying.
"I did boss, but you won't believe what I saw when I got the ratshack's shack."
"Ha ratshack's shack, good one." Dean laughed at the lame joke before saying.
"So, what did you see tell us all?"
"An Elf." Mark replied, getting everyone's attention.
"FUCK OFF" Dean shouted before saying.
"What would a fucking elf be doing going to see ratshack?"
"Wait, was it a female elf?" Dean asked, his eyes gleaming with desire.
"No Boss, it was a male, smartly dressed too."
"Lame." Dean said before pulling a different girl over to sit on his lap so that he could molest her breast.
"I don't know why the elf was their boss. I could not hear what they were talking about, all I know is the ratshack and the elf spoke for a moment at his door before they both entered a fancy car and drove away." Mark explained.
"Why the fuck would an elf be seeing rat shack?" Dean wondered out loud before continuing.
"There are only a few well-dressed male elves in the empire who drive fancy cars and their dignitaries from the elf kingdom, no way it was one of them."
Dean thought for a moment while molesting the girl before finally looking towards the girl on his lap.
"Don't just sit there bitch use that mouth of yours to make me happy or I won't have ratshack pay you." He said with a perverted grin as he waved the credit card in front of her face before pushing her onto the floor and pulling her by the hair, so her head was between his legs, and he undid his trousers.
