Then the flood of memory's came back. recalling being cuaght in the underdark. a place few of his kin or any surfec dweller has been or at least escaped to tell of. all thoug's who did retured chaged. He had failed his sister and her companin they where all here. he could her ther shuffling movements not far a way. but his capter's moved about him with out the slites sound. no sound he could here any way.

The most evil and vile of sorts kin to the elevs and as wicked as they come. He had tacken down five befor he was cought this bring a littel comfort to him now. a small smile found its way on to his face.
Reaching out with his chakra to find his sister. Laying a cross the way she was weeping and had been when he had frist came apon her and her captors... there captors now he suposed. more chakra then sholud have been. Flowed in her body as if two more life forces where growing in side her.It hit him hard all most phiscally so. She was pergenet another small smile came to his face as he thought of Dan his brother in law. Who died when his sister was forst chaught now she was pregnat. They going to die as well tears came to his closed yes! he wished he could see her face. Even with his eyes open it would be nigh impossble it's dacker then the darckest night down here and would be dead silent.

if it wasnt for his impresond compainons shuffeling as well. when it hit him. "they are not dan' kids he die nere to months ago he beraly noticed this chakra three weeks ago. The damed drow raped her that why she weeping not over dan but what they had tacken from her now she had toof them in her or least half of them

." filling one of them aproch him he lay there as if still a sleep opening his eyes. he herd this one grumbeling to him self in his own toung with a great understanding of it he listed to what he was saying "we are still Four cyicels of time a way from the city and it many months till the actull selbration starts" feeling the eyes of the drow on his back he continued to listen to his ranting

"humm this one still asleep" walking over and kicking him face up he was surpirzed to find him awake. zack moved quikliy rolling up on to his shoulder feet slamed in to his face knocking the drow back a few feet roling a round behind him the drow stumbled and fell wishing nothing more then to kill him and be done with him he. Fillped on top placeing his knee on his throught nerely crushing the stund drow right then and there " info I need info

" his mind screemed at him in quick and flaws drow toung he spoke " as you know this selebration not far off qnd know what i know about ur dark kin. we likly to die some time during this part. Tell me what is it. tell me what going to happen to us and witch one of your friends touch the girl on the other side off here"
gaining his wits enogh about him he repled. "nothing" and glared at his now captor. "bad answer" he wisperd to the drow " finlly he gave in it was are leader ilbith" snarling at that word glaring more intently "he touched your girl had his fun with her to! So did most of my troop" seeing the rage in the humens eye he being quick to add "but I did not! I swaer I did not!" he lessend the presher on the drow not seeing any of the looks comeing his way in the gods forsaken darkness "as for the selibation its in honner of the Queen of Darkness you will die dispite you skill and efort ilbith" agin spiting that word at him "you will be sacrifced in the finle days of the celbration that is if I dont kill you fist" drawing his wepon but to slow Zak moved his leg to the side of the face with a quick jurk to the side he herad his neck snap. still in absolut darkness seeing nothoing but hereing the others comeing. Filing there dark chakra he rolled across the uneven stone floor. landing with his lages crossed he sat perfictly still wating for the others to arive.
Macking mottions with his hands. in attempt to escap the bondege his jutsu. Repeled by what ever enchantments placed in to them. he formed another hand sign sinking in to the floor and frome veiw. The grop arived at first shoked at his silent disapprens remaing un fased by there now dead kin. signiling to the rest in there silent hand code to spred out and sherch for him. they did so ther rest of the prisoners squiermed gunted at the aprotching captores. when all but three drow had moved of down the tunel in sherch of him. he splie up behind them hands in front of him but still bound he took the keys off the belt of the jalier and in to the stone floor agin. Throwing the chains back the way the drow had come. they spune around drawing ther fabulsely made drow wepons. So quikliy and silntly Zak had to marvel at them from below.
Grabing the ankel of the one in the back he yanked him in to floor befor he cold mack a sound of warning to the other's to suficat and die below. jumping up out of the ston caverns floor he drew the dirk fro ones belt stabing with prisestion the blade whent right in to his hart. and dived in to a role. coming up just in time for the surpirzed drow to tunr and find the hilt producing from his chest. Four dead in mater of minutes "lets not get to cocky here zak"

the thought flutterd a cross his mind. just as he piked the up chakra of another group of drow aproching this one big. Evil lots oit to "damm they have a clirec a powerfull one at that. damm!damm! damm!... ther go's my escape. leats I can still kill this group frist hold on sis. your torment will not go unpunished this I sewer

walking in a tow heel cross stepp fashion. his skin crawled as he saw the chest with his stuff in it ten on watch the rest hunting. Down the tunnel thay had been traveling for weeks. Steping up behind three of them in the cursed toung he spoke "Any sing of the Ilbith" to his sureprize the said "yes" in unisen.

Side steping and ducking two hammers rolling for word's to dodge an axs comeing up bettwen the sword and hammer guy leaping at the low sword swing fliping off the moving wepon and over side steping a hammer jumping over the suprized drow's other hammer who expeted a duck.
Landing on the hammer as it whent back to stike agen the drow blinked wonder where he whent. Zack leting out a low wistle as he looked up to se him preiched on his hammer head not even filling the added wait to it. i smiled swung willedly trying to shake him off unsucse fully. as he kept he balenc on the head of the hammer as it moved. the other hammer swung in form the side. doing no more then lift his hand to catch the othe heading his palm un fased by the blow it stopped. thinking him distracted the sword and shiled wildeing one amzed and wiery of his skilled none drow opnint swigin a side ways chope wit a raizer sparp edjed shield he siply lifted a foot th difect it with the mettal splip on the bootom of his boot stoping his swored in bettwen two fingers and giving a slit twist as well the sworn man let go and stumbeld back just in time to fillp the well crafted drow sword in his hand to grabe the hilt and block the to x shaped axe chop at his back sending them up he kicked his feet back in to the stuned drows face falling forword in to a dive swinging the swored under the shild to cut the whears arm cuting mucels weekening the arm he revesed the movemet of the blad back around to stab down behind the shiled in to his chest. sending a bit af his secondary chakra elment down the blade and in to his chest the sword now glowing red hot from the heated metal spinig the sword realy fast the air around the blade and taling it. Simerd with heat glowing brightly in the drow'sheat seing eyes stabing at the axe willdeing drow.
Who his to cedit acuttly blocked the blow with the flat of his axe leving a red glowing srape on it spining the heated sword even faster the heat wall once agin blinding the drow he stabed it in to the floor with qiuck hand movement and great speed and grace he made hand sing's remidng the two remaing drow of there own complicted silent hand code but relizing it all most for what it was a spell. or some thing like that hiting his open hand on the ground pulling it up quikly to diagnel stliagmint came from the floor to stick out ther chest blood poored from the mouthes as the slide down the two spear like objectes to the floor.

"stone wall jutsue" his hand moved so fast only to slam in to ground wall flying form the ground to bolck the tunell behind him.to run face first in the the high pristest of the other group. "Damm" he mutterd under his breth right as the slepping dart hit home. falling in to the darkness not like what was around him in this god forsaken place." is this the lats thing ill ever see in life darkness?"

Chapter two
The Offer Refused

wacking up in chains arms dangling apart so he culd not form hand sings. feet berely tuching the gruond that he might stand.no locks on the chais he cuold easaly dislocat his thumb and fall out of them. zack grond as locked around surpized he could actuly see the room was lit with magical purpel fire. one of the few natral stunts a drow could do like globe of darkness the nobels could levat. Chucling out loud well least he wasnt dead or aprently going to die in total drakness. geting a good look aroun the room he saw a trunk with waht he thought might be his stuff."idots leaving my stuuf in the sam room with me. even if i catn quit reach it ye"

on the sam wall not so far a way he spoted one of the other of his sister copany chain just like him self but no sing of her at all.
"Zalyla im sorry I couldnt rescue you."

the rest of the wall looked prety much the same until he came cross a velvet curten. "There totruer equpment must be there".

he could not emagin what the where. nor did he whant to. A cold shiver whent down his spine he could fill them coming the darck power coming from them. Filled him with fear. brething in and out deeply. He must not show an fear at all. they where bring his sister no dout to get him to react. "Or to torcher her".

all most droping his head in defeat.
sharpening his hearing with a quick flexing of his chakra he listend to them aproch. "Put her on the rack." the voice held nothing but malice in it "yes Matron Mother" subborntenss or less famliy members as drow soctiy would have it. " this is the room. he in there" another female remarked with a note of prid in her voice. it is said he killed quit a feew of are bretherin. Over this female hade to pay a lofty sum to get him in the market." laughing the mother said this girl is week so he must be weeker" she hissed allmost sounding like a snake "bbbutt he iis not" ther march came to an abrupt halt.
"she is a femal and of import to this other ilbeth. are you saing that on the sufice the males rule." she paused no wonder ther so week. they let the week lead." laughing came out in the hall
"I should worn you matron kire that he should not be undre estmated"... "silenc! I did not say you could speak. and dont tell me how powerfull he is ill find out for my self!" a crack of wipes and some grnuting fallowed. "do you understand Bordoke"
"yes" he mermured more laughter fallowed the moved on coming to a stop out side his door. Three femil drow entered the room two male draging his sister behind. He droped he chakra as she came closer
smiling at him as she came. well you are and ugly littel thing as t why they say you all lone killed all thows me by your self ill never know. you dont look like much." he just smiled in respons.
