Late to the Party (Closed)

POSTED ON Dec 9, 2018 16:36:16 GMT

one glance at the bartender is all that's needed to convey his message: he wants them to be left alone. matters need to be discussed that do not concern a lowly bartender; he waits until the man's out of earshot before continuing.

nicotine is unfamiliar yet welcomed because he needs something strong to soothe the rage these fucking idiots build up inside of him. dorian provides the fire in more than one ways. once the cigarette is lit, he brings it to his mouth and takes a long drag.

smoke is exhaled.

"hmm."

that's all he'll say on the matter as he listens and at the end of it, he remains speechless because he's not too sure how to respond. or even if he needs to respond because from what he understands, the situation's taken care of. and compared to dominic sinclair, it sounds like a valid excuse.

perhaps not all of his subordinates are idiots.

"show me the pictures."

he orders because he knows the mad dog is one to record his killings. he takes another drag and shifts in his seat so he doesn't have to angle his head awkwardly at the beast.

disappointment is expected nowadays so to hear it from chu-e is not surprising. it doesn't make it any less frustrating, however.

"you won't." because if he does, then he'll die. they both know as much.

the slight bow that chu-e makes doesn't go unregistered; he's far too observant to let anything slip by. the kid understands the situation well enough to know when to show respect; he dances the line almost too well, and that's a quality that silas can admire.

"until you have something good to say, i don't want to hear from you again."

he watches chu-e leave.

ty for joining the thread in the first place, yams! i enjoyed it and i'm super sorry about silas; just know that any mean comments is totally ic and it's just how he'd react! ♥

she has been told that on multiple occasions, but perhaps some people learn best through experience. tough love is a thing that he's accustomed to; it's what he exercises and it's the main reason why he's still stood behind the wall listening instead of stepping in.

the conversation on his phone has long ended but he doesn't move. there are lessons for nyx to learn that he cannot teach.

desmond, however, can.

and he will.

because silas knows nyx and knows that she won't take kindly to gramps' words. she'll fight and retaliate and that's one of the reasons why he's taken a liking to her. but it might also be what causes her downfall.

words are not enough. words will never be enough. but this time there's a difference in the way he approaches his frustrations. his accusatory finger points but that's a good thing because it means it's not balled up in a fist ready to be swung.

in his eyes, he spares desmond.

twice now.

"first dominic, then ezra, and now you; i'm starting to think there's no one i can trust." he breathes, controlling his thoughts as rampant as they may be. he reminds himself that desmond brings more to the table than the underbosses do. his age translates in experience.

and his experiences make him violent.

"you're on thin ice. one mistake and i'll drown you. believe me when i say that." he takes a step back to break his demeanor. for tonight, he has to let this go because nothing can be done about it now.

he turns his back to the man.

"go clean up this shit. that's what you're good for, right?"

silas doesn't wait for his lapdog this time even though it's been thirty-six hours and one solo wild post because any thread with noodles comes last.

whistle.

all will know his might; rhyperior cracks the ground with a piercing STONE EDGE that smacks dead against bulbasaur's tanky body. the impact sends it flying upwards, spiraling in the air as its VINE WHIPS look to stabilize it in a fashion that's almost similar to a helicopter. it's amusing.

but it only lands to another STONE EDGE that pins it against the ground. silas tosses a pokeball.

the temperature rises in an unnatural pace; he looks for the source and finds it in a pokemon clad in a skirt and flowers on its ears. its hips sway side to side in a rhythmic movement that's almost mesmerizing. too bad silas isn't one to appreciate art.

it sees him the same time as he sees it, which is impressive. a LEAF STORM is conjured up; he looks up at the massive trees that hang overhead and their leaves are ripped apart and swirled into a spiral that comes straight at him.

a quick push of a button saves him. the LEAF STORM is no match against delphox's MYSTICAL FLARE that's careful and targeted; precise in nature as it burns all the leaves in the storm only to end up at the source. MYSTICAL FLARE hits bellossom, burning, and silas saves it by tossing a pokeball.

"do not compare me to them."

the harshness in his words is accompanied by the screeching the ends of the chair makes against the rough floors. she makes a gesture to the chairs and he accommodates her request.

soon, he finds himself sat across her in a situation he despises yet needs. there would be no stability otherwise.

the others. he sighs his frustrations.

"they all failed. the professor escaped. the shipyard master escaped." but it doesn't matter because leverage disappeared when he heard the council's being reformed. how stupid a decision, too. "but the commissioner wasn't as lucky."

there's no need for him to suppress the need to roll his eyes. "faith is a gift these idiots don't deserve." much like her, he's not here to hold any hands but recent events have told him that maybe he might need to. if he can't even rely on his underbosses to get the job done then what hope does he have. what hope does rocket have.

her voice lulls where her answer agitates. "and you need two weeks to say hi?" it baffles him because family is not a concept he understands. he's never had the luxury of having one.

as frustrating as it is, he abides to her request.

"fine."

but there's a catch. there's always a catch. he stoops down to her level, squatting to meet her eyeline. his fingers turn her head by her jaw, forcing her to look at him.

"ten days. if you forgot what happens if you're late, ask NIKOLAI PETROV." families are a weakness that's so easily exploitable. his threat carries that much weight with so little effort.

he releases his grip and rises back to his feet. "tell them i said hello." looking out at the view, he takes a step backwards.

"i need you for lavaridge."

"just one city?" he interjects and challenges her words as soon as it leaves her mouth because a split second is all he'll grant her. her ego almost rivals his but the circumstances are vastly different. it puts him on top; where he likes to be. and she knows it.

"look around, dahlia: we're everywhere. our roots spread out so wide and deep that it's a wonder how you haven't realized. or maybe you have and you think that you can fight us when we sprout. one of your esteemed council members was a fucking rat! open your fucking eyes, dahlia!"

and now there's a new council and the options amuse him because they're garbage. the only notable one is the silph heir (FERNANDO SILPH) and even he's vulnerable. he's not even a threat.

her affirmation that they'll come for her is a sweet melody to his ears. it might have even brought a smile to his face under different circumstances.

"they'll die."

i forgive you.

"forgive yourself for what's to come."

her pity is tossed aside; ignored much like he was. he doesn't want to meet her gaze anymore.

one deep breath wills him. "i can't protect you anymore." pity comes from him now, conveyed through the darkness in his eyes. "i won't kill you but i won't save you either."

he sees the mushroom pokemon long before dominic does but he doesn't make a move because he doesn't have to waste his energy on such menial tasks. that's why he has underlings. that's why he has dominic sinclair.

FLAMETHROWER licks away, burning as it makes the mushroom pokemon regret ever existing. but a pokemon that can take that level of pain and not die is something else. in these days it's rare.

he doesn't have to order because it's a tribute to him. an offering. and like the benevolent god he accepts it. he tosses a pokeball at the mushroom pokemon.

he is still not appeased.

a monster. inhumane. cowardly. he knows of the things people think he is but they don't know the whole truth. they don't know what he's been through nor the circumstances that drove him down this path of violence and anger. they don't know the bitter truth:

he is still human.

memories are what make a person whole and silas has had parts of him ripped out and torn and shredded until there's nothing left but a shell of a man. a vessel without a spirit. but a part of him persists. it lingers because it's stubborn and refuses to lose. that part of him is tied up. that part of him just spat water on to his shoes. that's the other secret no one but them knows:

she is that part of him.

"you were foolish enough to think you stood a chance. you should have ran but you stayed and fought. you didn't heed my warning, now look at where you are."

he discards the bottle of water, sighing a breath of air that's filled not with defeat but with disappointment. he steps in front of her and glares down, meeting her eyes.

"the league is in ruins. the council's left to be reformed. they're desperate. they'll come for you eventually."

only a fool assumes victory when a war is still being fought. and silas is no fool.

"this is your fault."

she's already pushing it. he watches as she situates herself on the ledge and lets her legs dangle freely, swaying with the wind. he steps next to her but doesn't sit; instead, he gazes out at what remains of the city, taking in the true sight of what he's capable of.

he offsets his venom. "you're pushing it, jules." she asks for too much and she knows it. still, he has to applaud her bravery; to dare ask such a thing from him is daring. or foolish.

"no one else can do what you do. ezra failed me. dominic was absent. and the other beasts? useless. and now you're asking me to relinquish my strongest weapon for two weeks."

it's an absurd request and one he would've instantly said no to if the circumstances were different. but with her, with what she's done for him, he bites back his tongue and reassess.

with a resolved sigh, he crosses his arms over his chest and peers down at her.

"where will you go?"

the majority deem slateport a success but the files in front of him tell him otherwise. he holds it tightly in his fingers; paper crinkling as his eyes scan left to right, top to bottom, analyzing every single detail because blame needs to be assigned.

approaching footsteps cease him from continuing. he lowers the files and tosses it onto an idle table next to him. he leans against it as he addresses her.

"no. not today. not when i have to deal with that bullshit." he points to the file. "these shitheads are so fucking stupid sometimes. even ezra—ezra!"
