HE Is Too GREEN for the World
Smoke and shadows
It's been 7 years from that incident
[Location: Abandoned luxury hotel, now a mafia negotiation ground. Midnight. Rain outside. The smell of gunpowder and cigars hangs in the air.]
(The double doors creak open. Enigma enters — tall, sharp, wrapped in black. His presence pulls silence into the room. Every man at the table freezes. His reputation walks ahead of him.)
random 1
(whispering to Reyan): That’s him… The Enigma.
Reyan Aster /TBA
(cold smile, hiding nerves): Took you long enough.
Lucien Rhys /E
(voice smooth, but sharp as glass):
Power doesn’t wait.
It arrives when it chooses.
(They sit opposite each other. The long table between them feels like a battlefield. Papers slide across. Money. Routes. Promises dressed as lies.)
Reyan Aster /TBA
You’re trespassing in my territory. I don’t care who whispers your name in fear — here, it’s meaningless.
Lucien Rhys /E
(chuckling darkly) Fear is never meaningless. It keeps people alive.
(The tension tightens. A gun clicks somewhere in the corner. Then — Lucien’s gaze lowers. Something glints from the Reyan’s pocket. A folded handkerchief. Embroidered edge. Soft white against the black suit.)
(The world slows. His eyes sharpen.)
Lucien Rhys /E
(low, almost to himself): …That.
Reyan Aster /TBA
(raising a brow): Hm?
Lucien Rhys /E
(pointing with deadly calm): Where did you get that handkerchief?
Reyan Aster /TBA
(Reyanl ooks down, then casually pulls it out, smoothing the fabric with his thumb. He smirks.)
Reyan Aster /TBA
This? My little baby gave it to me years ago. Said it was… good luck.
Lucien Rhys /E
(cold smirk, hiding the storm inside):
Lucky, hm? Let’s see if it keeps you breathing through this deal.
Reyan Aster /TBA
(mocking): Careful. Maybe it’ll turn your fate instead.
(The silence breaks as papers are exchanged. The air is a chessboard of threats.)
Reyan Aster /TBA
(sliding documents forward):
Routes. Shipments. Contacts.
You wanted access to the Eastern ports — this is your chance.
Lucien Rhys /E
(glancing down, unreadable):
You’re generous… almost desperate.
Makes me wonder if you’ve already lost ground.
(A subtle twitch of irritation flashes across the Reyan’s face, but he keeps his smile razor-sharp.)
Reyan Aster /TBA
And you — hiding behind smoke and rumors.
Do you even exist outside your shadows?
Lucien Rhys /E
(smirking):
Existence is overrated.
Power is what matters.
(A gun clicks again in the corner. Two guards exchange sharp looks. The atmosphere is a taut wire — one wrong word could snap it into bloodshed.)
Lucien Rhys /E
(Lucien leans back in his chair, voice low, deliberate.)
Lucien Rhys /E
Still… that handkerchief of yours.
It’s not… your style.
Reyan Aster /TBA
(snorts, pulling it halfway from his pocket):
Maybe not. But I don’t throw away gifts. My baby was a child when he gave it.
He insisted it would protect me — even from devils.
Lucien Rhys /E
(mocking):
From devils?
How quaint.
Tell me… has it worked so far?
Reyan Aster /TBA
(smirking, leaning closer):
I’m still alive, aren’t I?
(The tension bursts as laughter echoes around the table — cold, dangerous laughter. Lucien’s men rest their hands on their weapons. Reyan’s men mirror them. The air is war.)
Lucien Rhys /E
(suddenly cold, commanding):
Enough games.
You want an alliance. I want obedience.
Decide which it will be — before this night ends in blood.
Reyan Aster /TBA
(Reyan narrows his eyes, leaning back. For now, he signs the agreement, but his smirk says he’s not defeated — not yet.)
Lucien Rhys /E
(As the meeting closes, Enigma stands. His coat shifts like black fire. His eyes flick once more to the handkerchief. His voice lowers — a murmur meant only for himself.)
Lucien Rhys /E
(to himself, almost unheard):
Seven years…
Lucien Rhys /E
(He turns, leaving the room. Thunder growls as he steps into the night. His men fall in behind him.)
Lucien Rhys /E
(to his right-hand man, in shadows):
…Find the younger brother.
¿¿¿
(The man stiffens, nodding quickly. No explanation given. None needed.)
