Hair to the Throne {invite}

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider was walking down a street in Neutral Territory after receiving a note so encouraging note in the bar. He decided that a nice calm, even paced, serene walk would calm his mind and allow him to come up with a plan.

[Raikotsu Sudeki]

Rai would walk out of the bar that he usually finds Sider and Koshiro hanging at just in time to see Sider walking off in the distance Rai ran up to him.

"Hey Sider! Hold up for a moment I need to ask you something. Do you still have that Bandanna that Leon gave you? If so I am going to need it back. My master requested for it so that you will not attempt to use it in your trials."

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"I'm sure its around here some...AH here it is! there ya go bud!"

Sider hand it back to raikotsu.

[Raikotsu Sudeki]

"Thank you!"

Rai would turn away and walk off. He now had done what his master had asked.

[Marcus Prasad]

Meanwhile in the shadow of a nearby alleyway, a trio of shadows would be watching Rai and Sider with interest, unseen as they made thier reports which quickly reached Marcus' ears. He had told his wolves to be on the lookout for the man who was stupid enough to piss off DELILAH FUCKING BLACK of all people. More out of morbid curiosity than any thought of heaping more vengence upon him. At least until AFTER he finaly calmed down enough to think clearly.

Silent, Frost and Thistle would keep an eye over the man as he made his way through the yellow zone, feeding Marcus intelligence until eventualy the Man known as Sidervib would soon hear a low rumbling of a Harley Davidson engine off in the distance.

And it would be steadily growing louder........

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"What the hell is....An engine? God i haven't heard one of those since...." Since delilah saved us from barker, Sider thought grimly. "Since that...."

Sider looked to the general area he heard the motor coming from to see if he could spot what it actually was when he noticed it was acutally getting louder...shit....delilah sent her own assassination squad to kill me..............wait a second, it COULDN'T be an assassination squad, those are more quiet like...

[Marcus Prasad]

Suddenly a Black Harley Davidson with Metallic green flames could be seen as a dot on the horizon, Screaming towards Sider at top speed straight for him. In fact it looked as if the Biker was going to try to RAM the poor young man! Within seconds he would be close enough for details of the rider to be made out. Bomber Jacket, Skullcap overtop of a mane of Reddish brown hair and a pair of riding goggles over his eyes.

At the VERY LAST SECOND Marcus would twist the Bike into a Power slide, Stopping JUST INCHES from Sider. Glaring down at the boy, He would slolwy reach up and pull his goggles off his eyes and let them sit against his forehead, revealing the glare of disdain on his face before uttering.

"You the guy they call Sidervib?"

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"That's me! you must be the guy who loves to make an entrance! That was awesome! How you stopped the bike RIGHT next to me!" Sider said excitedly.

[Marcus Prasad]

Ooookay, that was alittle more Awe than shock. Marcus could work with Awe, though it DID take all of his willpower not to snicker and completely ruin the moment more than it already had been.

Alright Marcus, you can salvage this!

With a derisive snort, Marcus would simply reply.
"Practise kid. Now lets get back on topic. I wanna know how exactly you got yourself into this mess right here."

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"Well...i was walking....and then you almost hit me with your bike...soo i guess i should have been walking on the sidewalk? sorry if i got in your way but it was totally worth it to see that cool move!" Sider spoke to the man, obviously still excited.

[Marcus Prasad]

'Context Marcus. CONTEXT!'
He chastised himself. Digging into one of his many jacket pockets, he pulled out a folded piece of paper and waved it before Sider.
"From the desk of First Black herself. Says you, Sidervib have been one hell of a naughty boy and got boss lady nearly screaming mad at'chu. That actualy takes some fucking skills to do. So much so infact that I'm curious as to what you even said or did in the first place. So sit your ass down cause you're gonna run me through the whole thing."

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

Sider sat down as he began his tale.

"well i've been running around for quite some time now, mainly with raikotsu, one of the dragonlings, he and 'Brother DesChain' helped me break out Zack Asiv from one of barker's prisons. That is when i first met delilah, apparently she and lucien were in an organization called the crows that fought for justice. I had thought about joining the dragons first but i was...convinced otherwise, shortly after that i sent a messenger hawk to lucien to see about joining the crows. Lucien appeared out of nowhere and decided he might be able to help me out.

When we finally got over to the crow base delilah seemed very agitated at me, and the responses i had to her brigade of questions she launched at me. the main one being 'Do i fear Barker', my reply was 'no', it's silly just to fear a man, even a powerful man, fear for the death of your loved ones? sure. Fear for the loss of your life? Sure. Fear for what this man is capable of? Sure. But of him? Hell no. That one thing i learned from my old sensei, was never to fear any man. However, delilah didn't take too kindly to that and ordered me to leave her office, i got up and walked to the door as i attemped to convince her to change her mind, of course she didn't, and i told her what i could do to help the crows and that i might learn some of her mentality through this 'boot camp' they have, and thats when she had heard enough, she drug me out by my hair to the edge of crow territory and said if i ever return that her archers would fire upon me on site."

Sidervib sighed at the last part.

"So here i am walking through neutral territory when you randomly show up on a badass bike!"

[Marcus Prasad]

"Not random exactly. I WAS looking for you dude and Now I found you, which leaves me in an interesting position......"

Well! That was definatly an interesting story. Marcus could sympathize with Del on this one, even if the boy WAS only telling half the truth, what was there would have been enough to get on Marcus' own nerves if he was in Dels position. Still, Banishment? Archers set to kill on sight? There was WAY more to this than the young man was giving up.

Still, the comment about Barker. Having stood face to face with the man, Marcus knew first hand the kind of fear that his very presence creates.

"Why?"
Marcus would suddenly ask. A Sliver of a thought poking into his brain and worming it's way in deep.
"Why is it silly? Isn't to fear what a man can do not the same as Fearing the man himself?"

Something about the boys mindset struck Marcus as a lesson only half taught.

[Malcomb Warhazzard]

"I don't believe so, you have the ability to kill right? so if you were to hold a blade to my imaginary daughter's throat i would be afriad, not for my sake, not of you, but of what you can do. because i can just as easily hold a blade to someone else's throat." Sider shrugged. "Doesn't mean i will though..." Sider sat there trying as hard as he could to focus on marcus' question but...THE BIKE...it was soo cool!

[Marcus Prasad]

"I see, I see."
Marcus responded with a nod of his head. He definatly did NOT expect THAT for an answer, just some stupid verbal displays of Bravado and stubborness. Still, the boy seemed to only have learned half the lesson if that was the best answer he could have gived.

"Well then, let's switch it around. If YOU were the one holding the knife to someone I loved, should I be afraid of you or what you could do?"
