*Finding Answers Part 3:

Beast didn't know in fact that Malice surviving and being born while his mother had died giving birth to him was something that Slayer had twisted a little and left a lot of certain details out, while telling Vishious what had happened that resulted in his General being killed.

"So after I had killed the Night Creature with a lethal blow, not having any knowledge of what was walking through that door. I reacted in what any Commander or General would've done under those circumstances." Beast explained and Vishious could understand that and appreciated Beast for not trying to cover the truth up and put the blame on the dead General. Which many would have probably done in this situation, for it's always easier to blame someone who couldn't say anything against your story.

" It was also right after I had killed the Night Creature that the pregnant mother went into labor, dying during childbirth." Beast continued. It caught Vishious'attention how Slayer seemed to get agitated even more now.

"Why don't we take a short break?" Slayer interrupted, hoping he could be able to get a chance to stop Beast from telling about the baby living.

To Slayer's dismay it was Beast who answered. "I do not have a problem with continuing on with the rest Your Majesty. That is unless you would like a rest from this Lord Vishious?"

This made Vishious smile his mischievous smile, for he couldn't help but find Slayer's dilemma amusing and enjoyed how it was unraveling perfectly in his favor. "Please, continue on then. So we can get it over and done with instead of dragging it out." Vishious said sweetly.

Slayer wished he could punch Vishious in his smug looking face at that very moment, but knew it was his own doing that he was in this predicament.

"So as I was saying, the mother died during childbirth and the child did in fact live through it. So as much as I wanted to kill the baby at the time of it's birth, I knew I must get permission from His Majesty and let him know.what happened." Beast told Vishious whose mischievous smile grew bigger at what Beast had just confirmed about his suspensions. "So you wanted the newborn dead? why would you want to take a life of newborn Kamaira? If I remember correctly, don't the Kamaira's honor and celebrate a birth?" Vishious hurried and asked, wanting.to.hear the answer that he was pretty sure he already knew; but needed to hear it.

"You are correct, the Kamaira Clans do honor and celebrate the birth. For we do not have many births and it's years in between when we do have one." Beast said, before he continued," But having a baby born of two different species is an abominational Birth. But I'm grateful for His Majesty being wise concerning the situation. Beast looked toward Slayer and bowed his head at him, in respect for his Lord.

"So what did Slayer order to be done with the newborn? Did he agree with your thinking and let you kill it.?" Vishious asked a little impatiently. He wanted Beast to hurry up and tell him what he already now knew.

"No, His Majesty showed how wise he truly is and had me hand the newborn over to him, to deal with it as he saw fit. His Majesty did end up keeping it alive and raised it to turn into an excellent and devoted servant. I had to rethink what I first believed because Malice has proven to be an amazing kid and well skilled in combat." Beast said proudly, finishing up the story of what had happened.

The room was instantly fill with a dark laughter that came from Vishious. Alarming the other two that was in the room. Vishious' laughter sounded like it belonged to a crazed person and it took a few minutes for his laughing to finally stop.

"Thank you so much for your help and giving me your side of the events Beast." Vishious said politely. " If you both will excuse me now but I think I'm gonna go up to my room and think.about this." He started to stand when Slayer cut in to Vishious' exiting plan.

"I'm sure you must have questions for me, Vishious.?"Slayer said, wanting to know what he was thinking in regards to Malice now.

"Not at the moment but I'll definitely let you know when I do." Vishious said coldly. Just then black shadowy smoke started to grow all around Vishious until his whole body could no longer be seen, Then did the Black shadowy smoke disappear altogether, leaving just Slayer and Beast in the room.

"Did you honestly think that I wouldn't sense you following me?" Malice said in a deadly, threatening voice, while Grabbing the hood of the one he had pinned down underneath him.

"Let's see what hideous thing we have that's hiding it's face.!" Malice said mockingly and after a few seconds lifted the hood to reveal not a hideous creature at all and not what Malice had suspected to see at all.

Instead he was looking down at a breath-taking woman. Who had the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen, they were dark purple with emerald green around the outer circle of the eye, with dark blue hair that held light blue-green highlights.

"Are you going to get off me or is throwing down and fighting with women what you guys do in this kingdom?" The woman who was still pinned under Malice hissed in anger.

"I'll get off you but don't try to run." Malice said after snapping out of his trance like state. Malice then got off her and sat down on the ground next to the woman, who sat up and started pulling leaves and twigs out of her long blue hair.

Malice watched her while she did this, not knowing why but he couldn't help but stare at her. He had never seen someone that was so beautiful and breath- taking in his life.

"Can I ask you your name?" Malice asked, forgetting to be angry and wanting answers as to why she had been following him.

The woman stopped messing with the leaves and twigs that were still in her hair and studied the white Kamaira who wore nothing but a black leather loincloth that went to the middle of his thighs. She couldn't help but notice how he looked different compared to the Kamaira's she had ever come across before.

This Kamaira was actually handsome with beautiful white fur that she felt wasn't coarse but silky soft and his eyes were a stunning purple as well. She had never come across anyone else who had purple eyes before, she thought she was the only one.

She shook her head cursing herself for staring like she was. But couldn't help but be curious of what his name was as well. So she answered,"What's Your name first? I'm not going to answer you when I don't even know.your name?" She said coldly. While not looking at the man who was sitting next to her. Acting as if he had done her wrong when in fact it was the other way around.

"My name is Malice." Malice answered without any argument or hesitation and this made the woman to look at Malice quickly, shocked that he shared his name so easily.

"Now may I please know your name?" Malice asked her in a sweet, soft tone.

"Sinyster" She answered him. There was a few moments that they just sat there and stared at each other, neither one saying a word. Malice didn't understand this whirlwind of emotions that he was suddenly feeling.

All he knew is that he wanted to be in the company of this gorgeous woman who he had just met a little longer and who was looking at him with those beautiful mesmerizing eyes.

"You have a beautiful name if you don't mind me saying so?" Malice complimented. He didn't know why but that name sounded so familiar for some reason. "Would you like to walk together back to the Palace?"

As soon as Malice asked this she became alarmed and hurried to stand up. Malice quickly stood up with her and grabbed her arm. "What are you doing?" Sinyster asked him, trying to push herself away from him.

"I asked you to not try and run." Malice reminded.

"Please let me go and please don't tell anyone you caught me or mention my name!?" Sinyster pleaded with Malice, panic and fear obvious on her face.

Malice didn't know why but seeing Sinyster scared and panicky like this made him mad and he didn't like the thought of her being afraid of someone. "I won't let anything happen to you. I'll protect you. Who are you afraid of?" Malice asked. He didn't want her to leave and wanted to try and talk her into staying longer.

For how hard she felt that Malice's muscles were, Sinyster knew that the only way of her getting out of his hold was if he let go, but she still tried anyway.

Sinyster stopped struggling to get out of his iron hold that he had on her arm and than suddenly, she stopped struggling and just stood there and just stared at him for a moment.

The realization of what he had just said to her sinking in, Sinyster blinked. 'is he really worried about me? That would be the first. Well the first in many decades now.'

"How can you say to me that you'd protect me? When you just barely met me!? I don't need your protection, I just need you to keep your mouth shut and not mention my name!?" Sinyster said to Malice, not wanting him to think of her as a weak woman who needed protected. Malice saying he'd protect her, even though said with good intentions, started to make Sinyster mad.

Malice didn't know why Sinyster suddenly became defensive, he didn't think he said anything that would be found to be offensive to her. "Yes, we just met but still I'd protect you if you needed me to?" Malice answered honestly. "And I won't mention anything concerning you, but since you are demanding this of me than it should only be fair that I to am able to command something from you?" Malice said to Sinyster, who now looked at him with wariness, not knowing what he'd want from her.

"Ok, it seems like I don't really have a choice in this situation." Sinyster answered annoyed at the situation that she had gotten herself into.

Malice's lips lifted into a smile and Sinyster's eyes moved nervously over his handsome face, while trying to figure out what he was up to?

"I only ask in return for my silence that you come and meet me tomorrow? At the same time, will that work for you?" Malice asked his questions in a soft voice.

"Where?" Her voice came out a bit breathy.

"Since you don't know the lands, Here," He answered.

"Alright." Sinyster agreed reluctantly.

Malice hummed in approval and let go of her arm. He than took a couple steps in front of her like he was going to start to resume walking towards the Palace, before stopping and turning

to look back at Sinyster,but to his utter surprise she had already disappeared without him noticing.

He exhaled out of a little frustration towards himself, he knew he acted in a way that was foolish and unacceptable on his part.

He let someone go who could very well be a threat towards not only him but also towards Slayer, she did come here with Vishious after all and for some reason she was following him.

He would make sure that when he met up with her tomorrow that he would get some answers out of her, he had to make sure that he didn't let his guard down because of a pretty face.

For he knew that no matter what he'd never allow anyone to distract him and harm Slayer in any kind of way.

His eyes narrowed and he clenched his jaw, while his hands that he was holding down on his sides balled into fists.

He then turned and preceded to head towards the Palace.
