Hi, this is Ari and when we first got into K-pop there was a story I started on my own, I was curious if anyone thinks I should continue it or not?

Hero  was bored to be blunt and rather irritated as well, he really truly didn't want to go home, after all there were several reasons why he opted to make the trip to Lord Kim's home to run messages for his father. Most obvious reason being he and the young lord were friends, another being that he didn't want to be around while his father looked at potential brides for him, and the very last being something far more complicated. Hero groaned running a hand through his hair in irritation, he was terribly terribly upset to be returning home right now considering a potential bride was waiting for him, he would much prefer to stay and hide longer at Heechul's home. Hero was all to grateful when his 'prayers'  for a reason to turn around and go straight back were answered, albeit in a less the pleasant way. He wasn't about to take any unnecessary risks he was far to pretty and young to die, and no that was not vanity speaking that just his will to stay alive and looking as good as he could as long as he could (meaning every time he turned down a marriage at least he was still 'handsome' enough that his father wouldn't force the issue and would look for someone else...meaning he kept his freedom.) but he wasn't about to let something potentially deadly stay in Heechul's lands. So naturally he was going to investigate, cautiously but still, He sighed as he  went to investigate after tying his horse to a tree. He mentally shuddered at the thought of ever travelling by something other then a horse...it a terrifying idea and all those who wanted it to work were lunatics. Shaking his head back to the present he carefully made his way toward where he heard the noise only to stop short when he saw the source. The boy had to be a few years younger then him and looked like he was half dead, truly a disturbing thought, but oddly welcoming still after all he was a 'noble' man and he had a responsibility to take the boy to Heechul and alert him, and the boy was in such condition he would have to stay to see him better...the boy would be his responsibility after all. Mentally smirking Hero carefully made his way forward to the boy who was thankfully out cold and picked him up heading to collect his horse and return to the safety of Heechul's home. He knew his reasons for wanting to take care of the boy were selfish but right now he really did not care, it didn't matter any way he would keep the boy safe and in turn the boy gave him a reason to delay returning to his father, an even trade in his opinion.

Heechul looked up when he heard a knock at the door of his study and sighed, he really didn't want company right now he was still seething over the message Hero had brought to him, and the fact that Hero had to go back to live with the pompous . His friend was to good of a person to be the offspring of such an annoying man. "Come in if it's important if not leave." He ordered at the closed door, he still sometimes wondered how he had come to inherit the position of Lord in the household after all he was the SECOND born son! Ryeo winced at the tone knowing easily that it meant the message Hero had brought was not a good one, but the news he had was still semi-important so he braved the tiger as it were and stepped in the richly decorated study. "My Lord." he greeted with a bow waiting to be addressed in some way before he spoke. "Yes Ryeo what is so important?" Heechul asked coolly he wouldn't take his temper out on his friends and while they were servants a few of them were in fact friends. Ryeo nodded and began. "My Lord, It seems that Lord Hero is on his way back, and he has something with him, he should be here soon." He informed with a sigh. "Really?" Heechul asked actually interested at this point at Ryeo's nod he smirked, "Very well inform Eunhyuk that someone will need to prepare a room for him you are dismissed." He said with a wave towards the door and watched as Ryeo slipped through silently. He smirked again and got up slowly to go wait on his returning guest maybe he could convince Hero to stay, after all Hero was a friend and it would ruin the old man.

Hero was not in the least surprised when he arrived to be greeted immediately by Ryeo and led to where Heechul was waiting for him as his horse was led off to the stables. "Lord Kim." He greeted with a careful bow since he was still carrying the boy he had found. He also was not shocked that Ryeo hadn't asked questions about the boy in Hero's arms, after all Ryeo didn't care what Hero brought with him as long as it was not dangerous to his lord. Heechul smiled and noded briefly to Hero noting the boy in his arms and motioning to a couch that he could set to boy on. Hero nodded gratefully and set the boy down stepping back and allowing Ryeo to make the boy comfortable and begin to check for major injuries that might threaten the child's life before he looked to see if the child might live in Heechul's lands somewhere. "I found him in the woods on my way out." He explained as he took one of the arm chairs at Heechul's nod and watched his friend maybe a tad to closely as far as most were concerned and he settled in the opposite chair. "Hm Ryeo will see to him, I'm glad you came back though." Heechul started and glanced at the boy Ryeo was looking over and shook his head, "Not the reason why."He admitted. "I have something I need to speak to you about your father." He said watching Hero wince. "What did the old man do this time?" Hero groaned knowing that things had always been tense between Heechul's Father and his...then for a 'child' let alone one such as Heechul who was a second born and 'odd' by several other means to take over...his father was furious. Heechul sighed and leaned back to get comfortable this would take a while. "Your father is trying to start something of a blood feud I believe. The entire message was aimed to make me angry and almost every time he directly mentioned you it was some comment about how you agreed I was a deamon." He sighed holding his hand up when Hero went to deny the claim made by his father. "I know you better then he does my friend I don't believe him, but I think he hoped that I would either kill or maim you so he could take 'revenge' and kill me getting everything I own." He said with a slight shrug. He wasn't done with his news and he knew by the furious look on Hero's face that it was only going to get worse...after all the next bit of information proved what they both subconsciously knew, Hero's father had no love for him. "The last thing said to infuriate me into blindly hurting the messenger, you, was an exploitation of our friendship. He wanted to inform me and invite me to the wedding of himself and his new wife...since your mother can't give him another child...and you are what he called 'deamon spawn'." Heechul just watched as the information sank in, he hated having to inform Hero of that but it was better he knew before he possibly returned to find out from the old man. Hero stared at Heechul in shock for a moment while he let everything sink in. He was furious no other way to explain it, and that his father was putting aside his mother? the insult to her pride hurt him worse then the comment made about him. He already knew now that the old man had intended that he die or something equally horrible and he wouldn't put it past the man to have set up an ambush on the border or something to have his way regardless. "Well then it seems like the spirits of the forests protected us both today my friend." He said oddly calm for what he had just been informed of. Heechul simply smiled at that reference shaking his head, it amused him that Hero could honestly believe like he did when his family bought into the useless lip service off some religion or other based on some divine being who ruled without living among those they ruled. "Yes it seems so, will you be staying? or returning to confront your father?" Heechul asked hopeful his friend would stay. Hero sighed and leaned back pinching the bridge of his nose, "I'll be staying Heechul, it's not safe for me to return and we both know this. I'll swear my aligance to you happily if you'll let me." He admitted slightly pained to have to, it also hurt to know that he was going to have to abandon his mother...if his father hadn't killed her somehow already. Ryeo gasped in shock int erupting their conversation unintentionally. "Ryeo what is it?" Heechul asked worried since Ryeo was usually very calm about everything, almost irritatingly so. "My Lord I apologize but this child is from no where in the area, at least not that I know of. He had green eyes." He said still shocked at what he had seen. Hero just looked from Ryeo to the boy in confusion and had apparently been enough to shake Ryeo from his usual calm (which was NOT easy he had tried it before). Heechul just raised an eyebrow and sighed, "If he isn't dangerously injured then go inform Eunhyuk or one of the others that another room will be needed...we'll have to be careful till we know who he is and why he is here." Ryeo nodded and left quickly to do so, it wasn't the colored eyes alone that had shocked him, after all Heechul's were purple and Hero's ice blue, it was the color of them that had him so confused...any color was odd but that green was about the color of the forests around actually it was exactly that color. Heechul sighed and shook his head glancing at the sleeping boy, "Will nothing ever be simple anymore? If I believed in them I'd say that god or gods whatever hate me." Hero nodded in agreement on that and sighed letting the now awkward silence hang over them not entirely sure if he should bring up the topic from before Ryeo's shock or not. Heechul sighed glancing out the window and wincing when he saw how late it really was, he shook his head as he stood up and nodded to Hero, "Well my friend, it is late and after your ride you must be exhausted. I believe it time to rest we will continue this...less then happy conversation in the morning. If you will excuse me I'm going to bed one of my servants will show you to your room." He said waiting for Hero's agreeing nod before he left eager to be in his nice warm comfortable bed and put off the rest of this very unpleasant conversation till tomorrow.
