Mark of Darkness [private for me and RedRose4]

[zajawa]

Ashley cocked his eyebrow and then smirked when Ket looked at him like he did.
"What? Thinking I can't handle it? Just because you're bigger than me doesn't mean I'm more vunerable than you, you know?", he chuckled and then looked at the people fighting around them. "We should fight some more. Don't want to be punished if Destro will see me lazying around.. and laughing. So... shall we?"
Taking few more sips of his water he put it down and looked at Ket questioningly.
"Come on. Let me kick your ass some more", he teased other male, having a really great time thanks to his fighting skills as well as his character.

[RedRose4]

"Hm, I don't know.." Ket teased, looking back at Ashley and agreeing. He wasn't scrawny and wimpy, of course he wasn't huge and muscular much like a part of himself, but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. "Trust me, after that fight I know you can handle yourself." Ket then said before furrowing his eyebrows in thought.
"Good idea." He mumbled, drinking as well and putting his bottle down right when he heard Ashley say that. Looking at the other male, Ket chuckled and glared while standing up. "You're gonna get it this time." He joked right back, standing up and taking a moment to roll his shoulders before bouncing on the spot and getting himself hyped up.
"Let's get to it." Ket smirked.

Grinning widely he attacked. This time their fight was even better than the first time. While they knew something about others fighting style and all they could try to make a use of it. Hit for kick, punch for block. And it was much faster than ealier as well. Ashley felt his heart rising with happiness as he could let go of everything and think only of here and now. Letting out with every move and every hit the madness of the last few day. Letting go the sadness.. and all hopelessness he felt so far. Kicking out of his head every memory that hurt or made him scared. That fight made him feel strong.. and ready to fight more for his own future as well as soul.

[RedRose4]

With a smile on his face, Ket got ready and continued with earlier, but this time he held nothing back. Ashley showed just how strong he was, maybe not physically but mentally. He was agile, quick on his feet, and smarter than most of the younger vampires in the estate.
With every few kicks he had gotten, Ket made sure to throw in a few punches and uppercuts as well, so by the time he went to get a drink his shirt had been soaked along the collar with his blood.

After two hours of few breaks and many kicks and punches, the doors opened nearby. A familiar face walked inside, his ice blue gaze starring directly at Ashley.
"Destro, nice to see you joined us." Olivia smiled, forcing it slightly while she glanced at his pet, cautious as to what he was doing here exactly.

[zajawa]

Ashley didn't see Destro coming inside, too focused on guarding himself and then given back a sequence of kicks. He was really tired but almost beaming with energy. Putting his hand up he signalized it's time for a break.
"Let's make a small break", said Ashley aloud, waving his hand to give himself some air. "Shit.. With you as my partner I will become better in no time.."
He said leaning on the wall, closing his eyes while taking few deep breaths. Running his hands through his wet from sweat hair he smiled a bit.

[RedRose4]

Destro didn't speak to Olivia at first. Instead his eyes stayed glued to Ashley, seeing as he finished the little practise and walked to the wall, speaking with the other man and then...smiling? Destro barely ever saw that part of Ashley, it was strange although he just sighed and walked over towards his pet.

Ket nodded in agreement as he grabbed his water and drank it, pouring some on his head and shaking it in order to cool off. "You get better each hour." Ket chuckled, but stopped when he saw Destro coming towards them. For some reason, Ket never really liked the other vampire...he just freaked him out a little. Instead of leaving, he stood his ground beside Ashley and just leaned on the wall, glancing over at the man very once in a while.

[zajawa]

"And what about yourself?", asked Ashley open his eyes and reaching for his water, drinking a bit of it and then taking some on his hand and covering with his neck and cheeks, feeling a bit cooler now.
And then he saw the older vampire, his master. His face got serious in mere seconds. Standing up stright he didn't really know what to say or do right now. Remembering what had happen ealier his face got a bit pale and his eyes almost glued to the floor.
"Master", he only muttered, trying to stay calm.

[RedRose4]

Destro's eyes stayed on Ashley, ignoring everyone else including Ket. When he heard his pet calling him by his name, Destro let out a faint breath, a mere scowl before speaking. "I had to ensure you actually showed up...who's this?" He asked while looking over at the other male.
Ket felt his heart speed up, knowing all too well that Destro could probably hear it. Instead of making Ashley answer, he decided to do it instead. "Ket." He said with a bow of his head. "You have a very impressive...pet, lots of potential."

"I know." Destro said instantly, eyeing Ashley for a little longer before speaking again. "When you're done, go straight to our room alright?" he said, his voice low and calm, although there was always a hidden edge to it that his pet knew too well. He didn't seem upset, but Destro didn't look incredibly fine either.

[zajawa]

He glance at Destro when he asked who Ket was.. though before he was able to answer other male answered instead of him. Blinking he looked from one male to other. Looking down at the floor running with his light green eyes from Destro's he nodded.
"Yes, Master", he said quickly, hoping there wasn't anything bad waiting for him.
Then he remembered and sighed mentally.
"But what about your pet's? I was told to go feed them right after I finish here..?", asked Ashley, glancing at Destro.

[RedRose4]

Destro simply nodded, about to turn around but he paused when Ashley spoke to him. For a moment, he stayed silent but then he smirked slightly and shrugged. "They won't eat today. Head to my room, no stopping by anywhere else." Destro then turned, waving his hand and speaking softly. "See you then Ashley..."
When he walked out, Ket looked at Ashley and sighed. "I don't like him...at all." He whispered, just in case Destro somehow managed to hear.

Glancing at Ashley, Ket took a moment before speaking. "You alright? We're having one of our lessons soon...we can have a five minute fight to forget that if you want." Ket said, not saying he had to, but it was an option if Ashley wanted to.
