Moriarty's
POV
It's been a few months since, my capture as I hear footsteps
down, the hallway of the prison cells. Judging by the sound of them.
It's appears to be a young woman, her gait confident. I am but, an
observer as she approaches my cell. The
irony of it all is not lost on me.
I a man, who once held the strings of fate. The very man in
Holmes his world to be able to be called his shadow, his nemiss his equal. Moriarty the man: Capable of determined to change the fate of
nations. Now reduced to a mere spectacle for the curious and powerful
to gawk at.
I move shifting my position, feeling the cold metal
of my cuffs moving against my wrist. One of the many constant
reminders of my captivity.
I could feel my cat ears twitching ever so
slightly, a telltale sign of my discomfort. Ignoring them, I keep my face
impassive stoic.
And then she appeared stopping before me.
I cannot help myself
but, wonder if even for a moment of what she would see in me. Is it
curiosity like so many before? Pity perhaps? Our maybe in the very
off chance she believes there's still a spark of greatness left
within me, something worth salvaging from the ruins of my
ambitions.
“Ah Miss Yuzahara, well if it's the rumoured
successor to the Yuzahara family.” I greet her, ensuting my tone is
measured and polite along with a polite smile. My voice sounding almost unfamiliar to me after the months that, I spend here in sollitude.
"It appears
we are to become acquainted under less than ideal circumstances."
I study her expression carefully, trying to gauge her thoughts. The
questions from before returns.
Does she see me as a monster, a
man deserving of this cage, our perhaps as a tragic hero brought down
by forces beyond his control?
Senka: “So you've heard of
me. That makes things a lot easier.” Her gaze reading
determination.
“Your
family's name Miss Yuzahara it carries.... a certain weight. The
whole schandal and, then the Kurogane family preying on it. One can only imagine the scars
it left behind not to mention your father's latest affair. ” I
study her reaction, savering the moment. It appears I've struck
exactly where it hurts.
Senka: “I assume, then that you do
know why I did seek you out.”
A small grin appearing on my
lips as I meet her gaze, my crimson eyes never leaving hers.
“But,
you must know Miss Yuzahara, my services don't come for free.” I
allow the silence to stretch between us. Like a taut wire. Heavy with
unspoken words. My mind already calculating her every reply,
preparing for it's every outcome as I patiently await for her
response. My tail my tail swishing idly behind me, like a metronome.
Senka: “Very well then, a Yuzahara always pays it's due's.
Help me to acquire what I want and, I shall reward handsomly. Perhaps even your freedom would be up at the table.”
