(X) Talk to black book in the temple of solitude alone

you go into your ship with your blade and set sail for the desolate plains of pluto, the location of the temple of solitude a sacred place dedicated to duels you know this ground well its deserted lonely and devoid of life. You turn to the shrine of the god of merchants, he has looked over your family for generations you kneel before the statue.



and pray for an successful venture, with that done your ship lands, you go inside the desolate place and find black book there waiting for you. He has the traditional cups ready. You look at the offered cups, coffee represents new ideas, change, and inovation. Tea represents tradition the old ways. He pours himself a cup of coffee and you frown that is like him. He offers you a cup if you do you will be bound by the laws of hospitality not to harm him, and like wise he will be bound not to harm you. The principle of guest right would ensure a peaceful meeting, but dispite his recent reasonableness can you trust him? The two of you have been enemies since you were small children. You remember meeting him at six years old on a bridge in the rain. You looked at each other and felt hate, you wanted to fight and the two of you stayed true to that emotion.

He stares at you

Two cups
(X) Accept a cup of coffee

You give a slight nod, black book raises and eyebrow and with one hand pours a cup of coffee for you, he puts the canister on the table. You take your cups and clink them three times, then sip, the code of hospitality has been established and now you can talk.

"Coffee? You have always been more of a tea person, tell me clockwork did you finally pull that stick out of your ass."

You glare at him.

"I feel like it was time for a change, what do you need to talk to me about?"

He hands you a letter, he keeps using his left hand why? He's right handed that isn't like him.

"A letter from your sister, she's doing fine on my estate, I have kept the solar league away."

"And my lands?"

"I have convinced the vultures to give you the full year, hippocrits the lot of them, at least half of them are also with varies underlings, possibly even more."

"Then why was I singled out?"

He frowned.

"They wanted your lands, your wealth and saw an opening, expecially when you got attached."

He sighed and put a map on the table.

"Its on the earth that was, this is a map."

You blink at it as if it was poioned.

"And how did you get it?"

"Its a thing of magic it needs no further ex."

"HOW DID YOU GET IT!"

As the table shakes the cufflink of his right arm moves, you see the stump where his right hand used to be, you stare at it in horror. Black book calmly takes another sip of his coffee.

"Magic has a price, sacerfices must be made, its a triffel it just means that next time we duel I will have to use a prostectic. Don't take it to be more then it is, its not that I like you or anything, were not friends."

"Then why help me?"

Your enemy closes his eyes.

"My principles matter more to me then our past greviences, I don't hide my displeasure about our current system, that people are not allowed to love who they wish how they wish. This system of nobility is madness and though I have my faults I am not a hipocrit."

He pauses.

"And your slightly less of an insufferable ass when your with her."

He grabs a small box and opens it with one hand.

"Their sending assasins after you, they call themselves the knights of disco. They will hunt you down."

He turns the small box around and you see the platnum coins.

"Some money, I know they have cut you off from your funds this will see you through the long night, there is also a letter of credit on there if you run out. Please don't go overboard, thats my drinking fund."

You stare at the letter of credit.

"Thats alot."

"I find myself needing many a stiff drink."

Your a proud man, its one of the things that makes you who you are, and past issues aside you need what ever help you can get even if its unexpected.

"I will pay you back."

Book shrugs.

"It isn't important."

He makes an attempt to grab his coffee it fails he sighs at his stump and uses his left hand to take another drink.

"So my family?"

He frowns.

"Your sister Mechanica is currently on my estate and is healthy, your mother is well if not particularly pleased."

"Good."

He frowns.

"This won't last Clockwork, if you fail then they will send assasins, and with your best men dispursed and the vultures out well not even I can stop all the assasins."

"I know, and as for her virtue."

"I have no intrest in children clockwork, never had she is as safe as she can be if rude and unpleasent. I belive her nickname for me is 'fucktard.'"

You conceal a smile.

"I will have a talk with her."

"No doubt to congratulate her."

Black book rolls his eyes, and pours more coffee.

"And My love?"

Suddenly Black book looks angry.

"Is in prison, there is nothing I hate more then injustice."

"Even more then me?"

"You are a pale third clockwork, first is injustice, then mindless puffery, then you, Im afraid I have priorities larger then yourself."

"I feel duely insulted, but."

"She is alive, I have smuggled out a letter from her cell for your aproval."

"I trust you have not read it?"

"Every word clock work, she sends all of her love, truly she deserves better but it is typical for women of quality to settle."

"I pity the woman who ends up with you black."

"As do I, that poor poor woman will be wed to an utter scoundrel, truly a scandal."

You read the letter, and your heart feels warmer happier she belives in you, you think about it. You could attempt a jail break get her out of here flee the system, it sounds romantic.

(X) Jail break!

(X) Continue your original mission

(X) Brood
 
(X) Continue your original mission

Doing this means working with the system. Doing anything else means working against their system and eventually having to create our own. Because there is no doubt in my mind we'll lead a fucking rebellion or something an then all those people need a leader...

Moral of this story is :
Work with the system because it's less work for you in the long run.
 
The first knight of disco
(X) Continue your original mission

"Thanks Black book."

He nods.

"Come on we..."

You stare at each other, black book brings out a gun.

"It apears that we will have to fight side by side" a chill runs down your spine as evil laughter and disturbed music rings out through the halls.



"YOU CAME HERE EXPECTING PEACE INSTEAD YOU FOUND ME SUNSHINE!"



He pulls out twin lazer guns and you fall to the ground as he starts shooting.

"How did they find us book?"

"Their assasins Clockwork its what they do."

"THE GREAT SUNSHINE SHALL KILL YOU AND THEN DANCE ON YOUR GRAVES! CAUSE THATS THE WAY UH HUH UH HUH I LIKE IT."

You look at black book.

"Do it use the song of your soul."

He takes in a breath.

"God damn it Clockwork you know."

"The longer you go with out using the song the more powerful it is when you do use it, its been what a year?"

"Its seems like a waste."

He sighs.

"Fine lets swing."

Music eminates from his core as he gets up, his movements are rythmic like a dance.

"Hey disco boy lets swing."

He puts his gun in his holster and takes out a switch blade.



He blurs and dances around the laser blasts.

"STAY STILL UH HUH UH HUH."

"Not happening."

He's song overpowers the assasin, and he's in melee range, he kicks the gun out of one hand and dodges a point blank blast.

"Cant swing kid?"

The knight grimaces as Book stabs him in the wrist, sunshine drops his other gun, then you watch as black book stabs him over and over again, getting him in the stomic, throat, and eyes. Sunshine gets slower until the music ends and he falls to the ground dead. Black book shakes the blood off of his knife and then puts it back into his pocket. He stares at you breathing heavy.

"Save your song till and emergency clockwork, their going to put you through the ringer."

You look at the dead knight and the two of you go to your respective ships before you leave you look at each other, book puts his hand forward and then stops and looks at his stump.

"Sorry force of habit."

He brings out his one hand and you shake.

"She's a good woman clockwork, better then you deserve don't fuck this up."

You smile.

"If you fail to protect my sister I will kill you book."

"Better men have tried but yeah I will keep her safe, she cant help that her brothers and ass....stay safe it would be humilating if some one else killed you."

You roll you eyes and head to your ship, you fly off, your low on supplies you need more. You open up the box of money and look inside you see a photo of your love and a message from black book written on the back. 'do it for her.' You stare at it and affex it to a prominate part of the ship. You then set sail.
