Broken Pieces-Chp108

[The ship soon took off, flying into space. 2 hrs into the flight, the trio felt the need to chk on their spouses to see how they were doing, so they donned their helmets n entered the big ship, only to find Hater, Fury, Peepers n Awesome sitting at the lounge taking a beer break frm their misadventures just now]

Sylvia: [hid behind the couch together with Wander n Brad to listen in]

Hater: [took a long swig of his beer, then burped] That was a pretty crazy day so far

Wander: (listening closely)

Awesome: Tell me about it, bro.

Hater: So... U actually did it with her? That crazy lady?

Fury: Like I said, I only did it for a while, then wen she's distracted, I started hurting her to force info outta her. She actually liked it for a while, but wen I started cutting off her fingers, she soon realized I wasn't in the mood. Wen i finally moved on to her other hand, she was pretty much begging for mercy at that point

Sylvia: :o [whispered] Dude....

Brad: [almost couldn't believe wat he just heard]

Wander: (blinks that Fury would do something like that) ... (is brought back memories of times how he wanted to do away with Ryder, but wasn't able to...)

Hater: Guess ur experience as the Royal Interrogator was put to use, huh?

Fury: Not a profession I'm proud of, but it did the job [flex n unflex his claws]

Awesome: Huh...reminds me of when Wander had the thought of doing something like this with Ryder, but... guess it was because of his parents that he wasn't able to or something...

Wander: :O (thinks; he knew...)

Hater: Wat do u mean? Ur saying Wander wanted to kill Ryder at one point?

Brad: [whispered to Sylvia] Wat does he mean by Fury being a Royal Interrogator?

Sylvia: [shrugged] First time I heard of it

Awesome: The others didn't seem to notice, but I've sort of seen it... the way Wander would glare behind Ryder's back... but I guess the reason he couldn't pull through with that sort of thing was...because of either his parents or he was scared he'd...hurt himself as well...

Wander: (shrinks back, hugging himself; Awesome was right about that...he had had thoughts of worrying what he'd do to himself if he had killed Ryder on his own)

Hater: Prolly bcoz of wat happened wen he was bullied, n the side effects of him using his powers that he himself is allergic to... [noticed Peepers staring at Fury] U look like u wanna ask my father abt something

Fury: [turns to Peepers] Its abt my previous profession, isn't it?

Peepers: If it's not too much to ask, Sir.

Fury: Before I was Lord Fury, Lord of Planet Skeletor, I used to be the Royal Interrogator for my lord, interrogating prisoners n criminals n pretty much anyone my lord commands me to. The throne didn't even originally belong to our family. It belonged to Anguish's family, n she was the daughter of my lord at the time.

Hater: Yeah. There was civil unrest bk then n Skeletor used to be torn into two factions: Lord Torment (my dad's lord) and his brother's Lord Anger. Mother was supposed to be wed to Lord Anger's son in an arranged marriage to secure a truce, but the wedding was a farce, it was an ambush by Lord Anger to assassinate Lord Torment. He succeeded, n since Lord Torment had no male heirs n his second in command died in battle, n Mother was too young at the time to take the throne, the majority party voted my father for the job

Peepers: Wow...

Wander: (also interested)

Fury: I've done a lot of bloodshed through my work, n more bloodshed wen I declared war on Lord Anger, n it took almost a decade before it was ovr. During tht decade, Anguish n I fell in love, n naturally I married her during the 5th yr of the war, n she got pregnant with Loathe during the wee mths of war's end. I almost missed the birth bcoz I was busy trying to kill Lord Anger, bt I made it in time, n at the same time secured peace throughout Skeletor with me as one ruler

Hater: The rest is history [shrugged] Father still kept some of his Royal Interrogator tools, the three of us sometimes would sneak into the weapons room to see it

Fury: As a reminder tht I wouldnt do such cruel things evr again, tho for this occasion, I broke the vow, bt it was worth it

Awesome: Worth it for a family?

Fury: Yes, for my son

Hater: [smiled a little, glad to hear this frm him]

Wander: :)

Sylvia: [pretty impressed by the story]

Brad: [was also mildly impressed, bt he was more concerned abt getting a glimpse of Peepers. He didnt knw why, bt he couldnt help missing him, the familiar ache in his chest evrytime he steals a glance at him]

Peepers: ...You're lucky to have a father like him, Sir. :)

Hater: ....Yeah, I guess I do [smiled at Fury]

Fury: [chuckled n patted Hater's head]

Wander: ^^ (happy for both of them)

Sylvia: [grinned as well]

Hater: [sighed] I miss Wander. I knw its been a week, bt it feels like forever. I've nvr missed anyone like I miss Wander n the litters right now

Wander: (frowns, concerned about Hater; it was hard for him to not go to Hater to hug him)

Fury: I knw u miss him, bt ur doing this for his friend, n its a vry honourable thing. U two must miss ur wives too, huh? [turns to Awesome n Peepers]

Awesome: Yeah, pretty worried...and maybe even our new baby...

Peepers: Hopefully Brad's alright as well.

Brad: [blushed wen Fury assumed tht he was Peepers' wife]

Sylvia: [was a little concerned, bt shook her head. She hadnt shown any signs, they prolly didnt hit the jackpot]

Wander: (sighs) ...Should we head back?

Sylvia: Yeah, I heard enough

Brad: ....Yeah [but was reluctant]

Wander: (leads them out quietly)

Peepers: (has taken out the small red box again, sighing)

Hater: [noticed it n whispered to him] Psst, wat's tht?

Peepers: I was thinking...well, hoping if we make it... once we get back home, I could ask Brad if... if he'd be my...

Hater: [blinked] U mean u havent evn asked him yet?

Peepers: (shakes his head) Because of the whole thing with the collar...

Hater: Huh, I dont think it matters if he wears the collar. U could still propose. Bt I see wat u mean. U wouldnt reli be truly husband n wife with tht collar in the way. It'll still see u as master n slave

Peepers: Yes, it will... :(

Hater: I bet u'd make him the happiest man on earth wen u propose to him aftr the collar is gone

Peepers: I hope so, too, Sir.
