Beast of course wasn't aware that Malice surviving and being the hybrid pup that Slayer was trying to avoid telling Vishious and had in fact twisted and left out a few things when he had told Vishious the story of what led up to his Generals death; all those things were of course included in what the Commander was telling Vishious. And Slayer could only sit there and become pissed off at how badly things had seriously backfired in his face, as he heard Beast finishing up and telling Vishious of everything.
"So after I had killed the Night Creature with a single, lethal blow; it was only then that I came to realize what the demon was and put together everything about it and the young pregnant female Kamaira. I did what any demon leader and Commander or General, would have done under those circumstances and wouldn't expect it any other way. For us demons we can't afford to not attack and kill first, showing hesitance is a deadly and stupid mistake to make." Beast snarled as he explained to Vishious his reasons behind killing his Night Creature 18 years ago now.
Vishious understood what Beast was saying and agreed to his thinking and how he handled the situation. He appreciated Beast for not trying to cover up the truth and put the blame on the dead General. Which most would have done in this situation, for it's always easier to blame the one that can't say anything against your story and nobody wanted Vishious as their enemy and would try to lie their way out of possibly being killed by the Demon Lord.
Beast finally ended up continuing to say, "So after the mother Kamaira started to go into labor and she.." Beast was suddenly cut off mid sentence by Slayer who said, "Why don't we take a short break?" Even though Slayer knew that it was pointless to try hiding anything at this point, he was still hoping that maybe Beast would agree to taking a short break. But Beast was on top of it by saying, "I don't mind finishing what I have to say and I'm pretty much done with everything that happened that day anyway that concerns Lord Vishious's General. Unless of course you're needing a break, Lord Vishious? Beast asked.
This made vicious smile his mischievous smile.
This made Vishious smile his mischievous smile, for he couldn't help but find Slayer's dilemma that he had caused for himself amusing and enjoyed how it was unraveling perfectly in his favor. So he answered, "Please, continue on then. So we can go ahead and just get this over with, instead of dragging it out any longer than is needed." Vishious said sweetly. Flashing his smile towards Slayer and when he could see that Slayer glared at him, he winked at him to let him know that he was touring with him by doing this.
Slayer wished he could've punched Vishious in his smug looking face at that very moment, but knew it was his own doing and he had put himself in this predicament.
"So the only thing left to say is that the mother died while giving birth to her pup. And when I saw that her pup was still alive, I knew that I would need to go and inform Slayer of what had transpired that morning and take the newborn hybrid pup for him to decide what to do with it. And at first I had honestly thought of just killing it and not allowing what I viewed as an abomination to live because I was repulsed by it's making. He said not holding back how he had truly thought when he discovered what the pup was. To think that a Kamaira and a Night Creature had actually mated and the baby had actually lived while both his parents were now dead, I didn't see any reason for letting such a thing live. But I'm grateful that Slayer did as he chose and decided to let the pup live and as you did meet malice last night, you could see what an exceptional and very unique hybrid Kamaira he truly is. He's a very strong and powerful warrior who we have yet to see what he is fully capable of." Beast finished telling Vishious everything that he knew Vishious wanted to know about.
The room was instantly filled with a dark laughter that came from Vishious. Alarming the other two that were in the room with him. Vishious' laughter sounded like it belonged to a crazed person and it took a few minutes for his laughing to finally stop.
"Thank you so much for your help and giving me the whole story that took place that day Beast." Vishious said politely. He started to stand when Slayer cut in to ask Vishious before he would exit the room," I'm sure you must have questions for me, concerning Malice and his hybrid makeup?"
"I don't at the moment but I'll definitely let you know when I do". Vishious said coldly. Just then black shadowy smoke started to grow all around Vishious until his whole body was consumed by it and then just as quickly as it appeared the shadowy smoke started to dissipate, leaving just Slayer and Beast in Slayer study.

"Did you honestly think that I wouldn't sense you following me?" Malice said in a deadly, threatening voice, while he sat on top of the cloaked figure that he had pin beneath him. He was looking down at the struggling person before Grabbing the hood and pulling it back.
Malice then said in a mocking tone,"Let's see what hideous thing we have that's hiding it's face, shall we.!" After struggling with the person thrashing their head around trying to stop him from removing its hood, he finally pulled it back to reveal not a hideous creature at all, like he had been expecting. Malice would have never expected to see what he was now looking down at and laying his eyes upon.
Instead he was looking down at a breath-taking, beautiful woman. Who had the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen, they were dark purple with emerald green that went around the outer circle of her Iris in her eye, with dark blue hair that held light blue-green highlights in it.
His thoughts were suddenly interrupted by the woman saying, "Are you going to get off me or is throwing down and fighting with a woman, something that you guys do in this kingdom?" The woman who was still pinned under Malice hissed in anger.
Malice then said after snapping out of his momentary trance, "I'll get off you but don't try to run." Malice warned. Malice then moved to get off her and sat on the ground right next to the woman. She sat up very slowly and started brushing herself off and pulling the leaves and twigs that had gotten caught in her hair out.
Malice sat and watched her while she did this, not knowing why but he just couldn't help but stare at her. He had never seen someone that was so beautiful before and absolutely and breath- taking in his life.
Unsure what he should say to her he finally spoke saying,"Can I ask you your name?" Malice asked. His voice was kind and his tone was polite, forgetting to be angry and wanted answers as to why he had been being followed; that had led up to this.
The woman stopped messing with the leaves and twigs that she had yet to untangle from her hair and turned her head to study the white Kamaira who was sitting next to her on the foggy ground. He wore nothing but a black leather loincloth that hung down to the middle of his thighs. She couldn't help but of course notice how he looked much different than the other Kamaira she had met before.
This Kamaira was actually handsome with beautiful snow white fur that almost glistened in the dark and she had felt that his fur wasn't coarse to the touch but was silky soft when she had been wrestling around with him when he caught her. His eyes were a stunning dark purple that made her gaze linger on them linger, longer than she had meant it to; but She had never come across anyone else who had purple eyes before and they were absolutely beautiful, and they would have even made the amethyst Stone envious of their beauty. She had always thought she was the only one that had purple eyes.
Noticing that she was still staring at him, She shook her head cursing herself silently in her head for letting him catch her staring like she was. But she couldn't deny that she too was curious to know what his name was as well. But She wasn't going to let him know that he had caught her interest in any way, So she decided to answer him by saying,"I think it'd be more appropriate for you to tell me your name first, don't you think?" She said coldly. While looking away from the man who was sitting next to her, acting as if he had done her wrong by throwing her down and catching her, even though it had been her following him that made him do so.
"My name is Malice." Malice answered without any argument or hesitation. This surprised the woman and she quickly snapped her head to look back at Malice next to her, shocked that he shared his name so easily when she asked and that he didn't appear to be mad or care that she had been rude when she answered him.
Malice, who is still sitting on the foggy ground next to the beautiful woman said,"Now may I please know your name?" His voice was polite and sweet as he spoke to her.
"Sinyster" She answered him. There were a few moments that they just sat there and stared at each other, neither one saying a word. Malice didn't understand the whirlwind of emotions that he was having.
But he knew that he wanted to be in her company a little longer as she was sitting there looking at him with those beautiful, mesmerizing eyes of hers.
"You have a beautiful name i hope you don't mind me saying so?" Malice complimented. He didn't know why but that name sounded so familiar for some reason, but he couldn't figure out why that was. "Shall we start walking back to the Palace?"
As soon as Malice asked this she became alarmed and tried to scurry to get to her feet. Malice quickly stood up with her and grabbed her arm, when he saw that she was planning to run. "What are you doing?" Sinyster asked him in an almost panic tone as she tried to push herself away from him.
"I told you to not try to run when I got off of you." Malice reminded her firmly, not loosening his grip on her. "Please, you must let me go, please?! And you can't let anyone know you caught me or even mentioned my name!" Sinyster desperately pleaded with Malice. Panic and fear clearly seen on her face as she kept trying to pull herself backwards and pull her arm free from Malice. Hoping he'd let her go, she didn't stop trying to get her arm free.
Malice didn't know why but seeing Sinyster scared and panicky like this made him mad and he didn't like the thought of her being afraid of someone. "I won't let anything happen to you. I'll protect you. Who is it you are afraid of?" Malice asked, more demanding than he meant to. He didn't want her to leave when she was scared like this of someone.
For how hard she had felt that Malice's muscles were when he had pinned her against him, Sinyster knew that the only way of her getting out of his grip was if he decided to let go of her, but she still tried anyway.
Sinyster after awhile stopped struggling to get out of his iron hold that he had on her arm and she just stood there and stared at him an angry desperation. She didn't have time for this and needed for him to hurry up and let go of her arm before Vishious or Slayer should happen to come along.
It was thenThe realization of what he had just said to her sank in, Sinyster blinked. 'is he really worried about me? That would be the first, Well the first in many decades now anyway. Why would it matter if I was scared of someone or not? He doesn't even know me and just barely met me to say such things.' Sinyster questioned inside her head.
"How can you say to me that you'd protect me? When you just barely met me!? If you want to protect me then I just need you to keep your mouth shut and not mention my name!" Sinyster said to Malice through clenched teeth. She glared up at him, not wanting him to think of her as a weak woman who needed protection. Malice saying he'd protect her, even though said with good intentions, started to make Sinyster mad and become defensive.
Malice didn't know why Sinyster suddenly became defensive, he didn't think he said anything that would be found to be offensive to her. "Yes, we just met but still I'd protect you if you needed me to." Malice answered her honestly. "And I won't mention anything concerning you, but since you are demanding this of me than it should be only fair that I am able to request something from you?" Malice said to Sinyster, who was now looking up at him with wariness in her eyes, not knowing what he'd want to ask for him to stay quiet about her.
"Ok, it seems like I don't really have a choice in this situation." Sinyster answered in annoyance at the situation that she had gotten herself in to with this white Kamaira.
Malice's lips lifted into a smile and Sinyster's eyes moved nervously over his handsome face, while trying to figure out what he was up to. She couldn't help but notice the softness in his eyes as he looked at her and for some reason it made her feel at ease.
"I only ask in return for my silence that you come and meet me tomorrow? At the same time, will that work for you?" Malice requested in a soft voice.
"Where?" Her voice came out a bit breathy.
"Since you don't know the lands... Here," He answered.
"Alright. I can do that. I can meet you tomorrow." Sinyster agreed a bit reluctantly but for some reason she found herself already looking forward to it.
Malice hummed in approval and let go of her arm. He than took a couple steps in front of her like he was going to start to resume walking towards the Palace, before stopping, turning to look back at her, but to his utter surprise she had already disappeared.
He exhaled out of a little frustration towards himself, he knew he acted in a way that was foolish and unacceptable on his part.
He let someone go who could very well be a threat towards not only him but, towards Slayer. She did come here with Vishious after all and for some reason she, had been following him.
He would make sure that when he met up with her tomorrow that he would get some answers out of her, he had to make sure that he didn't let his guard down because of a pretty face.
For he knew that no matter what he'd never allow anyone to distract him and harm Slayer in any kind of way.
His eyes narrowed and he clenched his jaw, while his hands that he was holding down on his sides balled into fists.
He then turned and preceded to head towards the Palace.
