New Beginning

Thorn and King Vaas

Written by

Watching wistfully at the two young males outside. Thorn nearly jumped when his name was called.
He turned, looking at his new King. "Yes, sir?" He asked slowly, walking away from the window.
Only to be joined by the older male who also looked down into the courtyard.

"You fancy him, no?" Vaas whispered, watching as Humina tackled Honeydew playfully into a
flowerbed.

Thorn's eyes halved and his mouth became blank as he continued to stare outside.
"Perhaps. He is quite young. I owe him my life, if he had not found me..."
The wasp looked to Vaas slowly, his expression rather unreadable. "Actually I anticipated
you to have me killed."

Vaas laughed lightly, placing a palm onto the young adult male's shoulder. "My dear Thorn.
We are not violent Wasps; we are bees. We do not murder senselessly." He ignored the newest
guard's stance, even though he was clearly insulted. Vaas knew that Thorn was smart enough
not to defend his former people.

"Come with me." The king said suddenly, walking away from the large window and toward his
quarters. Frowning, the wasp followed, giving one last glance before leaving the opening
completely.
