The Village

@☣ Cho Kyuhyun The rider stopped slowly, eyes closing with just an hint of frustration in his expression as the boy passed out. He would need harsh training to become someone worthy but his name was still important. One chance and that was it. That was what he was getting. Jumping from the horse, the man grabbed the kid by the collar and threw in on the animal's back, before starting to ride it again with Kyuhyun tied behind him. Heuksa was still a few hours away but for Minsoo it was nothing and hopefully the kid would sleep through the entire journey.

@☣ Sky Lord As the rider began to chuckle, Kyuhyun's smile fell. "You could be.. o-one of those undercover guards-" he starts, but simply decides to purse his lips as the horse began a slow trot. After a few moments of thinking, watching as the rider and his horse create more distance between them, Kyuhyun makes his decision. "To hell with it - it's not like I'm doing anything important here," he mutters before he runs shortly to catch up to the horse and its rider. "I-I'll go with y-" he begins before he falls forward onto the ground, passed out from drunkeness.

@☣ Cho Kyuhyun Minsoo's lips stretched into a small smile before the man started chuckling. He was actually laughing at the kid with honesty. "Do I... look like a Guard soldier to you?" the assassin asked with some humour to his strong voice before urging his horse to keep trotting slowly. "If you want to know more about your father.. See the path you can follow after him. Follow me. Or die tonight. Because that's the only thing left for you in this village." he voiced calmly, eyes on the road as his horse started walking away.

@☣ Sky Lord His hea lifts to glare harshly above, looking at the man on top of the horse with slanted eyes as he stood up with his hands in the air, his middle fingers lifted. "The Imperial Guard killed my dad without true reason! He wasn't stupid! Go back to your camp grounds, soldier!" He yells drunkenly, stumbling slightly as he stood on the soil. His hands fell as the horseman spoke about becoming a killer, his eyes slowly widening, taking a few moments before he laughs, then sits back onto the rock. "Live as one? This is surely.. some trick, by you damn soldiers." He says before looking back at his empty whiskey glass. "I'm gonna ing kill you all," he mutters, dismissively playing with his fingers in his lap.

@☣ Cho Kyuhyun The man sighed through his nose, eyes closing quietly as he heard the other. Then he looked him for a moment, before finally taking another sip from his clay jug. "Your father... got himself killed because of that reckless attitude. You're just like him as I see." he commented calmly, recognizing the man who the boy was talking about. He was one of his assassins yet he had left too much ties to Heuksa, being caught by the Imperial Guard. With a sigh, the assassin lifted his head once more, observing the younger Cho. He had a worse bloodlust. Perhaps he would be more promising. "If you want to be a killer.. You must be better than your father. You must learn how to live as one."

@☣ Sky Lord The drunken brunette huffs shortly as he feels the rider's eyes studying him, and sits down onto a nearby rock. "My name," he begins, drawing in a breath, "is Cho Kyuhyun, son of a man killed by the damn Star Guard.. nearly a month ago," he adds before drinking the last of his whiskey. "My father was simply suspected of being.. one of those assassins, before the _____ing guards took him and had him hanged!" Hits eyes widened slightly as a wave of the alcohol overtook him, making him pause for a moment before he decided to continue. "And those _____s - damn, I just killed three today!" He admits happily, nearly jumping from the rock in excitement, smiling up at the man on his horse. "What business do you have with me anyway, sir?" He asks, his 'r' drawing in a loose, drunken way.

@☣ Cho Kyuhyun Choi Minsoo is as usual, almost sleeping with his old bottle of alcohol in hand as he rides his horse through the shadows of the dark streets of the village. He isn't one to pass villages unless he needs to, and when he does so, it's only by nightfall. The horse is taken aback by the sudden kid running crazily past him though and the Sky Lord is forced to open his eyes as he grabs the reins firmly. After a short moment, he urges it to trot after the stranger, stopping in front of him and forcing him to stop. The assassin lays his eyes on him, studying him with his penetrating stare for a moment, before raising his chin calmly. "What is your name?" his voice his steady and without any trace of emotion as always.

@☣ Sky Lord "_____s," he mutters under his breath, watching as the pebble he had thrown splash across the surface of the water several times before it sank to the bottom. He inhales slowly in the riverbed, looking up the flat channel to see the setting sun; he turns from it, using his hand to support himself as he rose from the ground and climbed out from the river.
At night, he stumbles along the dirt roads in his village with a bottle of whiskey in his hand, spilling several drops of the alcoholic liquid with each overexaggerated step he took with a crooked frown on his face. "Damn the Star Guard - killing my own.. father!" He screams, soon followed by another gulp of whiskey. Once he reaches the village center, the corners of the massive plaza with thousands of bodies milling inside of it along with a strong number of the Star Guard to keep watch over the shoppers. At the sight of the first Star Guard, the drunk huffs and raises the bottle over the soldier's head. "You filthy bastards!" He screams, their noses only a few centimeters apart. "Soldiers like you.. deserve to _____ing die! After killing a man with no evidence, no trial?" He screams almost rabidly. Just as he was about to strike the knight, others had surrounded him, knocking the bottle out of his hands and had him handcuffed to be taken to jail, with two guards to him. Although, even when drunk, his father's training of the Heuksa techniques could still be used.
Once he began running away from the corpses of the guards, Kyuhyun knew he would be searched for all across his village. "Where the hell do I even go now?" He mutters as he plucks the grass strands from the earth beneath.
