"You might want to rethink that, my companions," Ruth said from in front the two, starting on the flight of steps ahead of them. "It's told that the Four Brothers are ten times as cruel, strong, smart as Alec. I would brace myself for the worst, Renn Seri."
((I'm planning that someone else creates the Four Brothers, all of which are ten times better than Alec. Faster, stronger, smarter, crueler, meaner, more bloodthirsty. You know, it's unfair that all the Freelancers think Alec is the worst. There are others with Simpcon characters.))

Renn heard. "Fantastic," he said, smiling. "At least it will be a good death," he lied, terrified.
Renn sighed. "Yeah, yeah," he said, frowning.
"I would prefer NOT to even speak to them," Renn replied, but nodded.
"Too bad? I suppose you don't wish for me to comfort you...though that is not a problem; We have arrived," Ruth said with a slight shrug, coming to a stop before two large oak doors that towered from the high ceiling to the cold marble floor. "Do you wish to enter now or are you in need of you friend's pep talk as you gather your courage, hmm?" he said, looking at the doors up and down.
((Let's see...yeah, I guess so. *shrug*))
Renn shook his head at Ruth. "Don't give that high and mighty crap, buddy. Open the door," he growled.
Ruth just laughed at Renn's comment. "You are requested. You are meeting them. Therefore, you open the door. Go on, you're the all-mighty one here," he told the other bleeder. "And as for us, Zena and I, we will only serve as witnesses of this meeting. Any questions, Seri?"
Renn sighed, opening the large door easily, striding inside. He was prepared.
((Who is going to play the Four Brothers?))
((So I'll do it? I played a lot of bad guys recently. Almost all the characters I made in this group are Simpcons. :P))
((Okay, I'll have to take some time, trying to look for the perfect picture...))

"I see you brought him, Seneca," a low voice that echoed through the long, yellowish marble hallway said as the three stepped in. "Yes, sire. Am I of anymore assistance?" Ruth replied, bowing as they came into the clear visual range of the four gold thrones and the robed men who sat upon each.
(I'll get call them One, Two, Three and Four for now.) Along the row, starting from the left, they wore either one, two, three or four on their robes. One continued, "Of course, Seneca. Find Nexus and tell him we call for him." Ruth bowed once again but didn't make a move to leave. Instead he asked the four, "I am sorry if I do intrude, but may I ask why?" Three laughed and so did Two. Four was the one that answered, "Ah, maybe you have forgotten, young boy. Nexus will record what happened here in this room today and after out meeting, if Seri is proven to still be a threat, he will take custody of this bleeder that stands before us." "I understand," was what Ruth said before turning and leaving the two alone with the Four Brothers.
"So, as I've heard..." Three murmured, leaning closer to examine Renn and Zena. "Ah, yes. We've heard about you, Seri," Two added in, crossing his arms and leaning back. Still, their four faces were hidden under their snowy white hoods. One stood and stepped down the platform which the four thrones were held. "Seri. We heard that you set a deal?" he said, his voice louder as he drew closer. Somehow, he gave out a godly feeling, making most who stood close afraid. If there was anything you should fear, it was the four of them. Mightier then Leo and Lara, mightier than Ruth, Mightier than the Head and of course, mightier than Alexander.

Renn knelt, looking up at One. "I did. I set a deal, giving away a camp of howlers that sheltered, and might still be sheltering, Lucian, the original howler. In exchange, I would've liked my record wiped clean, so I could once again take on Simpcon jobs, and no longer be hunted by Simpcon," he explained, keeping a respectful tone.
"Well, you do prove yourself for attention and maybe even worthy. Though, I want to ask you a question: Do you want to be a Simpcon or Nobody?" Two asked, his voice slightly taking a higher pitch than One's.
"I would like to be Nobody. But, it seems far more likely that I'll have to be a Simpcon," Renn said, gazing moving to Two.
"Well, well, you can make your own choices, Seri. If you wish to be a Nobody, you may leave now. IF you wish to be a Simpcon however..." Four said, he too was starting to stand and moving closer to Zena and Renn.
"You'll be in the custody of me," Alec's voice finished the previous sentence. Behind them, at the entrance, was Ruth and Alec. Ruth held a laptop in his hand while Alec was fiddling with his ear, now in Droid form.
"Exactly," Three said, nodding at Alec curtly. They weren't amused by Alec's presence, though they still needed him to record the whole thing down. "If you wish to be a Simpcon, you'll be like Seneca and...Shi, was it? You'll be under his training. Though, I see Brown would like to have something to do with you, too?"

"Then it's your lucky day, Nexus. You have Brown to accompany you as you try discipline Seri into our ranks," One concluded, giving Zena a small nod. "By the way, where is Tristan?"
"In the washroom with his butt stuck inside the bowl," Alec muttered but shut up instantly when all four Brother turned to glare at him.

"I-" Renn started. He didn't want to leave, but he didn't want to be tied down to Alec. Not like he needed to be trained, anyway. He was already a swordsman. But, he supposed it would be worth it. Pitiful. He was locking away his freedom for a woman. Well, too late now. "Choose Simpcon," he finished.
((Wait. Can I edit that? Because I kinda changed my mind.))
((Nah, never mind. I want him to be a bounty hunter, but I want him to be able to live in simpcon territory.))
((But I don't think that's possible, so Simpcon.))
((*Takes your hand and copies your fingerprint* M'kay.))
((I could always pluck out your eye? *Smiles evilly*))
Surkhab wrote: ""What?" Zena blurted out, shocked. "What are you doing? Simpcon? Seriously?" She whispered furiously."Renn shrugged and nodded. At least he'd be able to live without being chased to the edge of the world.
"So, you're saying I would be allowed to live on Simpcon land, take Simpcon work, and NOT be led around like a child?" Renn whispered. "I'd like that. Is it too late to choose that?" he asked.
"Then Simpcon," Renn said, smiling. He wanted to bee near her.
"Freedom's overrated," Renn said, desperately fighting his nature.
Renn sighed and thought for a second. "Simpcon," he said, nodding.
"Yes," Renn said. He hared repetitious conversations. They kept giving you opportunities to change your mind and confuse someone.
Renn looked at her. What was she so pissed about? He stayed because of her d@mmit. Well, whatever. That bastard Alec has another thing coming if he thinks I'll be his dog like Ruth, he promised mentally.
((Okay. I know I'm being offline and stationary in most of my groups these days. I'm really, really sorry. I'm trying to be fair and RP in all of my groups but my life outside Goodreads is getting more packed with a national examination coming up really soon... To try make up for it, I'll start to make time for Goodreads. I'll try really hard.))
"Okay...what's the decision now? Time is ticking and I'm not growing any younger over here..." Alec muttered drumming his fingers impatiently on the mini table he was standing next to. Beside him, Ruth and Tristan were sharing some brief words about the history of Renn Seri.
"What was his first crime I wonder," Ruth muttered and shrugged in slight wonderment. "Was it theft or straight to murder? I am thinking the latter, remember the time when he totally wiped out a town or city in blood lust? I've never managed that before."

((Renn already chose, but okay.))"I'll be a Simpcon," Renn decided, announcing it to the brothers.
"No, of course not," Alec snapped, "I set those laws, in case you forgotten. I decide whether he's off the hook or not. And I say he isn't, he'll still need to pay. You see, a small map isn't ever enough to fix all the problems you have committed. I don't care if you risked your life for it, I don't care if you nearly died. It is still not enough. It is not enough for me."
"Master, please. Seri will pay us with service. There's no need for further violence between you and him. He's a Bleeder, remember? He's immortal. Therefore he will live long enough to pay for his crimes slowly. There's no rush," Ruth said as the Four Brothers remained silent, watching them from under their hoods.

Renn glared at Alec. "Yeah, yeah, I'm a bad guy. And you're not?" he asked.
Alec pushed Ruth aside and took a few steps closer to Renn with an evil smirk on his face. "Well, of course I'm evil. I just get away with it but you don't," he said, ignoring Renn's piercing glare and the disapproving murmurs from the Four Brothers.
"Ooh, scary. You got a poodle? Did he give you lessons?" Renn asked, not impressed.
"Silence," Four said, his low voices echoing in the hall, "Nexus, you have caused trouble once again. You're dismissed. Seneca, you and Constantino will make sure he doesn't go running about shooting others or else." Ruth sighed and turned to leave but Alec was more determined to continue his argument with both Renn and Tristan. "But-" he started, but with another 'You are dismissed' by Four, he turned away angrily and stormed after the Bleeder.
Renn sighed and bowed. "I apologize," he said to the brothers. "I did not do much to help the situation."
Renn glared at Alec, determined to pay him back later for that embarrassment.
