Franklin
`"I see him the same way most people see a venomous spider; your skin crawls when you see one. But like I said, I would not harm him unless he harmed me first"`
Caitlin
`"Then how do you see us? The same as the king?"`

*He waves his his hand to the other demons in the room*
Robert
*Sighs and shakes his head he had thought he made a friend again but boy was he wrong, he learned a valuable lesson as a person, and as a king to never trust anyone...*
Franklin
`"Listen, this is nothing personal, I just have a hard time trusting anyone like you. I have seen it all too often, a demon offers to give a human everything they desire, but it ends up being just a deadly trick. My personal experiences taught me this"`
Caitlin
`"You can not read history? Your a nobleman of house bazin but don't know a slither of ebbfells past? My my our school system really has failed. We sit here most of us 300 400 years old which we ensured the peace of the nation so you can say that it is some deadly trick? Ebbfell has seen peace for 700 years no "Demons" As you said burned any ebbfellian town village let alone city as you suggested. Tell us where you get your experiences from your but a rain drop in a vast ocean."`
Franklin
`"My house has been responsible for saving humans from attacks by demons for centuries, and this is my thanks?"`
Caitlin
`"This is your thanks to the people who built this nation for you to spit on them, the very people you despise are the very people who built this nation. Do you see your hypocrisy yet? If that's not hypocrisy I don't know what is."`
Franklin
`"The real hypocrisy is that I have been paid handsomely for my services, saved countless human lives, and yet you talk to me as though I am a criminal on trial."`
Caitlin
`"Paid handsomely by who to kill ebbfellian citizen's? We have our own justice system you and your family line are not judge jury and executioner. Are you staying here and now Infront of the council, that you candy your family has been killing ebbfellian citizen's for money because there "Demons?"
Franklin
`"How many times have I said this? The only demons my family have killed are the ones that have actively threatened the life of another light being. That is all"`
Caitlin
`"Were these "Demons" Ebbfellian citizen's yes or no."`
Franklin
`"Yes. Each of them had a criminal record as well, and the majority of them had been previously incarcerated for a violent offense."`
Caitlin
`"Yet you kill them not knowing if they have changed into a productive member of society, what if they were convicted of a crime that was morally right but had to face judgement because of the law as law is indiscriminate. Do you see the flaws of using a criminal record to kill "Demons?" What if these Demons did what your family does and kills every and any light being with a criminal record or prior history, what if they were wrongfully convicted and evidence was being gathered to prove there innocence but you killed them before they got that chance?"`
Franklin
`"You are missing the point. All of the demons I have killed were threatening a human life, so I did what I could to keep them safe. If I were to review every case in front of you, we would be here all day"`
Caitlin
`"Said every tyrant ever, I'm doing this for your safety, I'm doing this to protect the public, I'm doing this to "Save You" How do you know those demons were attacking the light being because they were assaulted first you jumped in as there "Savior" By killing the demon when the light being intiated the conflict. I would like for you to understand let it sit within your head about what you have done. However we will request that you sign this here document that everything you said was truth and nothing but the truth. That you understand this can be used against you if you were ever put on trial and be used against house baziz if it ever went to trial."`

*They slide a document which has everything both sides said word for word nothing mixed no tricks they took her words as is*

`"This is also to have it on paper that you have met here today with us in good faith and on your own free will and accord."`

*A member brings a link jar and pen for her to sign the documents*

`"Once you sign you are free to leave."`

*A council member

*Council member waits for her to sign*
Franklin
*She sighed, wrote her signature on the document, and strolled right out of the room, noting some of the dirty looks from those present. However, not everyone seemed as though they were against her.*
Caitlin
*Council close the meeting room sending all people out as they now began to wave for the guards to bring king aldar to a cell to await the councils judgement as they began fixing there paperwork and cantering evidence, now in full swing the council began to contact judges, investigators lawyers at the state level to get warrants, for search and seizure of properties for house Bazel and all nobles within it and any person associated with house Brazil and any person associated with those people, they began the mass Influx of paper work as the overseers of the council watched intently with magic spells and there own eyes to ensure the council didn't overstep there authority.*
Franklin
*Makimi sat outside the palace, staring at her reflection in her dagger. Why was this happening to her all of a sudden? She's been saving lives, innocent lives, for a long as she could remember. Now, the people hated her, thought of her as just another murderer. Silently, she cried.*
Barbara
*Around the palace all royals that were held in there rooms under king Sicarus orders were released under the councils authority, everyone was free to do as they pleased and was given a formal apology by the council for the king's actions*
Franklin
*She stood up and put her dagger away, wiping the tears from her eyes. There was nothing left for her to do but go home, so she made her way towards the palace gates with the other nobles who were also leaving the palace.*
Helen
*Had made his way to the palace gates he sees Makimi and he held a welcoming smile to her as he waved with a happy face, he saw her tears and soon his face expression changed to one of worry and care even for a stranger*

`"Madame what is wrong is everything alright?"`
Franklin
`"Well, normally I do not share my problems with strangers. Would you mind introducing yourself to me?"`
Helen
*Fixes his hair from his horns and bows formally*

`"I am Fakumi a member of the vaunted Red Guard the tier 0 special operations the best of the best at your service. Is it not ok for a man to ask if a beautiful women that's crying if she is alright? It would be even worse of me if let you go without even batting an eye a true man knows this. A true noble or royal but not a single one of these people batted an eye to your distraught state."`

*He gently pulls out a clean white handkerchief and pats her tears away softly*

`"A noble must keep up appearance m'lady."`
Franklin
`"The kind gesture IS appreciated, but you are wasting your time on me. I am Makimi Bazin, and as the whole kingdom knows, I have never been a friend to the demons of Ebbfell, such as yourself."`
Helen
`"Some people are just misunderstood."`

*He states softly as he looks at her moving his handkerchief to the side as he spoke*
Franklin
`"You would not understand. I have killed many demons for trying to attack beings of light, but as half the kingdom is demon, I am not seen in the best light."`
Helen
`"You may not be but unlike you, and unlike my kin, take this with a grain of salt, I don't judge anyone by there past experiences or crimes, I don't judge people by skin, color or race I treat everyone the same. Just as most my kin does as well. We are never given the chance to speak with some people as they say we are evil before we can even open our mouth."`

*He frowned soon after he said this. It didn't bother him but he was true to his word.*
Franklin
`"Can you blame me for having trust issues when I have met so many of those creatures who commit wicked deeds?"`
Helen
`"No I can not blame you, but could you blame me if I didn't trust light beings either? But here I am showing you kindness when your own kin left you here alone and upset."`
Franklin
`"I appreciate the gesture, though I must be off, I cannot stay here forever."`
Helen
`"May I accompany you on your venture to ensure you make it home safely? It is the least I could do."`

*He smiles with the softest expression*
Franklin
`"I suppose so. I do not live far away from here, anyway, so it should be just a brief journey."`
Helen
`"Pleasant thank you for having me in your company for this short journey we shall branch upon!"`

*He said with enthusiasm as he walks beside her as they left the palace*
Franklin
*She smiled a little bit, but she couldn't help but feel skeptical of this stranger. Why was he being so nice to her, even though she's made it clear that she sees demons as evil? Whatever the case, a part of her worried that he was only pretending to be nice to her in order to get close enough to try and murder her.*
Helen
*Walks with her before his left eye gleams gold as he smiles*

`"I can feel your emotions you know. I know how you feel about me. You don't trust me and that's fine, whenever someone feels any emotions around me I know it involuntarily forces my own power out. So I don't want to shake your tree any further I apologise for how you feel about me and that I can't change that only you can."`

*He bows as they were close to her place he waves as he lets her keep walking alone he wouldn't bother someone that didn't trust him or force himself into her business, because well that is none of his business, he walks away in the other direction*
