"So you do know him." Hector said tersely. "Well then, have a happy nightmare. Dream of me." She said with a smile, gripping the sheath and quickly whacking Cedric with the hilt of the sword. 'That should be enough to knock him out.' She thought as the blanket she was holding over her chest fell to the ground. She grabbed her chest binder from the floor and let out a sigh.

"what?" Cedric blurted out before being struck in the face, he fell to the ground like a log. He wasn't completely out but his sight had gotten blurry, he turned and barely manged to see Hector before everything went dark.
Shepards woke up with a gasp, something wasn't right and he could feel it. He pushed himself up with his arms, gritting his teeth at the pain. He stood up "Cedric!?" he yelled out hoping he would hear him wherever he was.

Hector scratched her head after putting the chest binder back on. He threw on a robe on his shoulders and attached the sword on her belt before dragging Cedric out of her room and down the stairs. The servants standing by were confused by the gesture, thinking Cedric was still asleep in the living room, and didn't dare get in her way. She proceeded to drag Cedric into the living room where Shepard was.

Cedric could feel his body move but couldn't wake up. He twitched slightly as he kept seeing an image of Hector above him with an evil grin spread across his face.
Shepard could hear something in the distance, he looked around and saw Hector dragging something, upon closer inspection he saw that it was Cedric, he became furious "what have you done to him?" he asked calmly.

"Don't worry. I just knocked him out. He'll be fine on your way back to Hannon or wherever your going." Hector said, putting Cedric back on the couch he was on before. "And by the way, next time one of you decides to come into my room to kill me while I'm sleeping, you might want to bring a weapon." She said with a yawn.

Shepard, ignoring the intense pain he was we, ran up to Hector, he grabbed him by the neck and pinned him to the ground "Cedric wouldn't need a weapon to kill someone like you" he said speaking directly into his ear "I don't know what he was doing in your room but I know it wasn't an assassination attempt" he looked over at Cedric who was still unconscious "I think you need to be a little kinder to your guests" as he spoke he grabbed Hector's arm and twisted it up his back.
The image of Hector stayed stuck in his mind, but then it began to change ever so slightly and it disappeared. Cedric woke up, he was lying in the same couch again 'was it a dream?' he thought.
((might go to sleep soon))

((Ok. Same here. ))
"Kinder?" She grunted. "I gave him more then enough time to explain himself, and he spat out insults. I knocked him out for his own sake. And considering my servants healed you and I allowed you into my house despite you both being illegals and spies from Hannon, I would hold your tongue. By all rights, I should have slaughtered you both at the door for the sake of protecting my own house." She replied coldly. "But let's be practical. Your in no condition to fight me."
While all this was going on, several of the servants looked at the scene terrified. One of the maids ran out to go find John while the others looked at them, stunned with fear.

Shepsrd grunted, he was right, in the condition he was in fighting would be out of the question "Shut up! That gives you no right to blindside him" he said as he tugged harder on Hectors arm causin him more pain.
"Shepard?" Cedric said while getting up from the couch. He looked over and his eyes widened, he already had Hector on the ground and he seemed ready to kill "stop!" he said running over to him "he didn't do anything...I made a mistake, Hector only acted appropriately." he said trying to convince the man to let go.
Shepard turned and saw Cedric was alright, he released his trip on Hector's arm and tried to stand to no avail, Cedric ran up to him to help him but he kept his eyes on Hector unsure if he was going to attack or not.
((okay goodnight))

((Goodnight))
Hector said nothing, standing up and looking down at Shepard with a glance that could make even a king feel like dirt. He gripped his sword hilt and turned to look at his servants. "You two, help these fools back onto the couches before they hurt themselves." He ordered before looking back towards the Shepard and Cedric and said nothing before turning and leaving the room.
The servants were hesitant to help, especially after what they just did, but orders were orders, and they helped the two back onto their couches.

Shepard could only return a menacing glance to Hector. A servant reluctantly car up and helped him on to a couch.
Cedric let go of Shepard when the servant came, another came to help him but he nodded the man off. Cedric watched Hector walk off, he bit his lip, hesitantly he stood up and went after him "Hector!" He called out.

Hector stopped when she had reached the door and turned to look back at Cedric. "What?" She asked darkly.

Cedric stopped a few feet short of Hector and looked at him with a serious expression, he bowed his head "I wish to apologize..." He said and returned his head back up so he could look at Cedric "you don't deserve to be treated like that, especially in your own home." he said trying to be As sincere as possible "And on behalf of Shepard he also apologizes..." he said looking back at Shepard who only shot him a deadly glance.

"It seems your friend does not share your opinion." Hector replied, turning away from him towards the door. "I will be leaving to visit the king tomorrow. You should be able to find a ship in the capital that can take you back to Hannon. Your words are worthless if they don't inspire motion. If you really are sorry, try using some other method then causing trouble to show it."

Cedric turned back and flashed an angry look at Shepard, quickly he turned back to look at Hector. "you're right..." His hand moved up and he rubbed his neck "is there anything I could do to gain your forgiveness?" he asked prepared to do anything.

"Depends." She replied, turning back to him and folding his arms. "How far are you willing to go?" She asked.
