Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 24: IMPERIAL MAIL
It was in the evening Rashen headed home after helping Hanabi and the Grittshore Watch with the children. By tommorow they'll be set to leave Grittshore for Lambrid where they'll start their new lives.Rashen was still amazed at Almyrah's taming ability. He had never seen a lightning tamer before,he never even thought it was possible to tame lightning,there were still so many mysteries surrounding the art of Taming he didn't know. One thing he did know however was that taming abilities can be affected by strong feelings and emotions and that Almyrah living in constant fear of Madam Rosaline probably stunted her powers. He was still impressed that she could gain some level of control over her powers in such a short period. He wondered if Lekan,Dontei and the other children would also awaken their taming ability now that they don't have to live in constant fear.His thought process would come to a halt as he saw a lanky and awkward man walking towards the building with a bag over his sh
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 25: GRIM RETURN
It was already a long journey to Nottenam,Owellis but Rashen wouldn't have minded if it took the whole day. Not even the strong winds and the sound of that Rail Runner's loud engines could distract Rashen from his thoughts as he sat alone in his compartment. The last two days had been especially stressful for him. He had received the order to return to Nottenam to stand before the Court Marshall. He would've loved to focus on that,focus on how nervous he was but the only thing on his mind was his argument with Macy. She hasn't spoken to him for the past two days,she hasn't even spared him a glance. She wanted nothing more to do with him and all because he left out the detail of having relations with one of the Ephyre Honours, the Goldenfire Family. Things had gotten so bad to the point that she almost got into a shouting match with Miss Marun about not wanting to go to Nottenam for any reason. Rashen knew that Macy was a bit over the top. She had no problem getting violent when she
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 26: REUNION
Rashen barely got any sleep at night, other than Gayle's snoring,he had much in his mind. The next morning he got up early to take his bath and freshen up,there was no food in their room but he wasn't particularly hungry. He took out his casual clothes to wear(he really didn't have a lot of them). "Headin' out today?" Gayle asked drowsily. He had just woken up. "Yeah. Got a couple of places I need to head to today." Rashen replied as he picked up his badge that was on the table. "Place ya heading needs you to bring your badge?" Gayle asked. "One of them yes." Rashen replied.He counted some amount of money, running calculations in his head before turning back to Gayle. "Listen man,I know you don't want to hear this but..." Rashen started, "We need to get food that'll last us three weeks and that's going to require you pulling some of your money too."Gayle sat up in the bed rubbing his eyes lazily, "Yah, sure okay." Rashen was shocked he was quick to agree. "You... you're on bo
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 27: FAMILIAR FACE
"You can't seriously still be mad at me!" Rashen said."I'm not mad Rashikins, I'm irritated,I feel molested and abused." Said Gayle."Gayle you'll be fine." "Fine? Rashikins hospitals are hubs for diseases,who knows what sort of germs have penetrated our bodies." Said Gayle grumpily.It was today that Rashen found out that Gayle did not particularly like hospitals. Time flew by so fast while talking to Raspin and Ngoko that he didn't notice that an hour had gone by and by the time he left the room to find Gayle he saw him sleeping on the stairs. With the way Gayle felt about germs and hospitals Rashen didn't have the heart to tell him that his mouth was open."Well maybe a little shopping will brighten your mood because we're here." Rashen said to Gayle as the approached the local market close to Pigling Avenue. It was still as crowded and as busy as always. "Pfft! You call this a market? Compared to the average ones over at Hangeritch this is nothing." "Yeah whatever." Rashen sai
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 28: THE HEARING
It was a particularly cold morning. Rashen sat on a park bench,his mind racing. It was just about six o'clock in the morning,a few hours before the hearing would actually begin but Rashen was far too nervous to stay at the lodge and decided to leave early. It had been a pretty quiet couple of days leading to the hearing for Rashen. Ever since the incident at the local market Rashen decided to stay at the lodge and because of this, Gayle had to go get the suits (a task he wasn't to pleased with doing).Unlike Rashen, Gayle had no issues exploring Nottenam looking for inspiration, inspiration he would never find because he thought that Nottenam was a particularly boring place. He ultimately decided to stay at the lodge too. He spent most of his time with Macy(who was still not in speaking terms with Rashen) in her room just opposite theirs. Before leaving,he left a note for Gayle telling him where he would be and the time he would be heading over to the court house. He was never really
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 29: THE FINAL JUDGEMENT
In the court room where Rashen's hearing was taking place everyone's attention was solely on the Marshall. He took out the case files that had been presented to him,"I am going to ask you a series of questions that you can either answer with a 'Yes' or a 'No' unless you are asked to explain further, understood?""Yes." The Marshall began,"The accused was reported to have attended an unofficial get together for the graduating cadets that took place after the graduation ceremony,do you deny this?" The Marshall asked,"No." Replied Rashen,"The accused was reported to have left the get together with the victims before the alloted time,do you deny this?" "No." "The reason for this is because of an altercation between the accused and another cadet,do you deny this?""Yes." Rashen said much to the slight unease of those seated, especially Squad Commander Malloy. The Marshall's face creased as he went through the file again,"You deny that you had an altercation with one Imperial Cadet B
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 30: RASHEN'S VICTORY
"Ow!!!" Cried Rashen as Gayle slapped him across the face."Oh good! You're finally awake." Said Ngoko.Rashen noticed he was on the floor,he took a look around as me rubbed his cheek. He was still in the courtroom and right now he was surrounded by Gayle, Raspin,Ngoko and Head Academic Officer Remry Gillurt."What the hell happened?" He asked as Gayle helped him back up his feet."You fainted." Replied Raspin instantly,"I fainted?" "Yes you did." Said Raspin,"And just before the Marshall gave his verdict too." "Must've been the stress." Added Ngoko.It all came back to Rashen,"That's right,my verdict." He said in a panicky tone as he turned to face the Marshall."Relax cadet, you've been declared innocent." Said Officer Gillurt with a bright smile reminiscent of Head Watcher Garle."It is as the Head Academic Officer says," said the Marshall, "You've been proven innocent of all charges against you. You are hereby off your probation and all the privileges you earned for graduating
Fireborne: Rashen Rising CHAPTER 31: THE GOLDENFIRE BANQUET
"Are you ready yet?" Rashen asked Gayle for the fourth time that that hour."Patience Rashikins." Gayle replied.Rashen, after being coerced by Officer Gillurt, would be attending the Goldenfire Banquet that evening. After returning home they decided to at least freshen up before since they had the time. Rashen took a bath and wore the suit he wore for his hearing after airing it out.Gayle on the other hand decided to wash his suit again. He left it out to dry while he took a long bath. Unfortunately for him they only had about an hour left before the banquet starts and the suit was still damp. Rashen offered to use his fire to completely dry it up for him but he refused and called him 'uncultured'. He instead borrowed a hot press from another soldier in the lodge. "You know," Rashen started, "Seeing as you were the most excited about attending the banquet I assumed you'd want to leave early." "Relax Rashikins, I'll be done in another thirty minutes." "Thirty minutes!!?" "Give or
