"Looks wonderful! Thank you for having me." Dingi said with a slight bow of his head. He joined the family at the table, which again was strange and weird. He was used to eating on the floor after all, but some change is good. "He certainly is." he agreed, slightly ignoring the part where she brought up his background. Dingi has had to do some terrible things in his past too, and sadly, they'll continue to happen so long there is war in his land, but he feels no remorse in it. For his people, for his home, he will fight and kill as he needs too.
Dingi started to cut, and eat his meal when the topic was changed. Oh god, how whas he going to answer that one. "Can't I just tell her? I mean, if she figures out my nationality, it's kinda hard to fudge it." Dingi asked in his mother tongue before turning to Evona. "They both work to keep our city up and running. My mother focuses on external affairs while my father focuses on internal and military dealings. I do a bit of both, help where it needs to." He answered, thinking he did a good job trying to convey that without saying he was part of royalty.
"Oh. I am very sorry. Service is really spotty at home. We will work on that, I swear." He turned to Sohrab. "For now, you're more than welcome to use my computer for whatever." he said continuing to eat. He didn't mind eating with them, the food reminded him of home, and the company was kind.
Sohrab could see that Dingi offered to let him use the computer. The long-haired boy hesitantly nodded as Evona stared at the both of them. "Well it is only the first few weeks so I should be a bit more lenient." She then continued eating. She did have casual chats with everyone else though as the four of them sat and talked about...whatever. Dinner was over within an hour as Sohrab and Evona cleaned up the place.
"Do you need to be back at work?"
"Yeah, I am expected to." Sohrab answered as Eliza got up to bring her dirty dish to the kitchen sink. Sohrab tabbed the counter so she would put it there. "Do call us often ok?""I will, the service will be good soon." Sohrab lets them know that as he got to Dingi. "Anyway, I will be going now. I'll see you back at the place." Eliza frowned. "But you just got here."
Evona had a hand out. "He has a job to do darling. He'll call us often." Sohrab nodded as he then looked at his phone to see an e-mail message. Sohrab whispered to Dingi in the home language. *I need to meet the person. I'll be back at the home soon.* He then said his goodbyes to his Aunt and Eliza, giving them a hug before walking off. "Dingi, I'll meet you at the place later." He then left the place to go to the destination.
Sohrab ended up getting to the destination which made him suspicious as it was in a landmark park, type of thing. It was close to closing its gates for the day so Sohrab had to sneak through to find the place. He ended up at a private picnic area which surprised the boy in the lack of guards. He would find out eventually. He saw what seemed to be a man sitting there, smoking a cigarette which made Sohrab cringe as he hated the smell of smoke. "Hello." He called out as he stood there with a casual yet defensive posture. "Sorry for the wait, and I would like to apologize. I ended up finding a job with a different household, so I cannot-" He then saw a hand was lifted, to stop Sohrab from talking. That got him to narrow his eyes, rude. The stranger stood up and tipped his hat to see eyes, glowing eyes. That got Sohrab to panic and suddenly held onto by two men who refused to let him go. He kicked and thrashed around trying to escape but it only made the man with the hat chuckle as he took it off. "Do you think I really care about that? I got the pieces right where I wanted them." The man went to Sohrab and lifted the boy's chin. "We intended for you to land in the palaces of Al'Taitha. But it seems like you had forgotten your orders." That got Sohrab to keep on struggling, trying hard to escape. "Your orders were to let us know what is going on, what are the weaknesses, who are the royal family, where there are spots we can easily infiltrate. Did you forget that?"
"You never said such things! Now LET ME GO!"
"Oh, don't worry...we will once we are done talking." That got the man to sharpened fangs to bite Sohrab's shoulder which made him scream out of sheer pain. A mark is slowly forming on Sohrab's arm, forming some sort of tribal tattoo wrapped around the arm. Sohrab felt himself being released and was now on his knees, holding onto the arm that formed the tattoo. "Now, Imma let you make a decision, you either do as we ask and give us the information as it comes, or....we can possibly either kill you or put you in a brothel, along with your only remaining family suffering for the rest of their lives. It does seem like your sister will form into a beautiful flower.."
"YOU....DO....NOT....DARE." He growled, clenching his teeth as he is trying to get rid of the pain. "Then you do as we ask. Your eyes become my eyes, and your ears have become my ears, and with a bit of magic, I can control you. So follow our orders and nothing will happen to you." With that he forced Sohrab to get up. "So with the e-mails, make sure they are answered within 24 hours, if they are not....the suffering and tortures will begin. You understand?" It took Sohrab his might not to show weakness.
After being thrown down, Sohrab laid there slightly as the three men vanished. So the demons had planned this before Sohrab had even come. It made him feel so pathetic even coming here. Maybe he should've gotten Dingi to come....Sohrab would've chosen death but with his family in the line, he had no choice.
Sohrab returned to Al'Taitha soon after. He went to the bedroom stripping himself to change to his pajamas. He saw that his arm was slowly forming on his arm and it made him shake...his life would never be happy would it? Changing into a long-sleeved shirt he sat on his bed, rubbing his face trying to get rid of the water from his eyes. What was he going to do now? How can he do this? Betray the people that brought him...he will never forgive himself after this.

Dingi nodded to Sohrab and smiled. "Alright, see you home." He said, then turned to Evona and gave her a slight bow. "Thank you for sharing your home with me. It was a pleasure." HSe said once the dinner was over and he was leaving. To Eliza he gave a simple thumbs up and a grin before he left. Once outside and after Sohrab told him he was going to meet someone he signed. "I have a few more stops, I'll behome late, I'll bring home something for ya on my travels, kay?" He said and patted Sohrab's head then separated from Sohrab and off to the creampuff shop.
Before he got there he made a quick side step home. No one saw him teleport, sot hat was good. When he got home he wandered the halls until he found Sabih. "hey! Come with me, I needya to carry a few things for me, you can eat them too~" Dingi said.
Sabih shrugged and closed the book he was reading and followed Dingi. The prince opened another portal back to the creampuff shop. He, with Sabih, entered the shop and was greeted by a nice little old woman and her granddaughter. "Ah, young man, you're back." The frail woman said looking to her granddaughter to go get the order. "It's always a pleasure doing business with you." She said as her granddaughter handed over 4 boxes of 24 large creampuffs in each. "Mmm, thank you so much." Dingi grinned, handing the boxes to Sabih before he paid.
After paying he left the store and Sabih quickly said in the only language he knew; "You ordered enough tor half the harem! what are you going to do with all of this?!" Sabih didn't even get an answer before Dingi shoved the male through the portal home with a chucklee.
Dingi, now alone hummed in his step as he turned and this time opened a portal to Germany. he wasn't going to stay, just get a few things. A few things for shits and giggles that is. He went to a small shop (he liked the small, locally owned shops it seemed!) and bought a few things for himself, and some for Sabih and Sohrab as well. He shopped for another good hour before coming home, not because he wanted to, but his arms were too full to cary anything else.
By this time Sohrab was probably already home and cozy, so Dingi was quiet walking down to his room. He did stop by Sohrab's room and he placed a bag just inside the door. It was filled with all sorts of useless s**t. Most notably Lederhosen, a couple carvings, some beer (because why not, 16 was legal here), and quite a few pieces of fine jewelry, even if he knew Sohrab was a man, jewelry and being highly decorated was a normal thing for a high class man to do as well. If he didn't wake Sohrab, he'd go off to his own room to sleep.
Sohrab woke up, after twisting and turning with a bunch of nightmares. Emotionless eyes opened up to see that it was morning, crusty rocks formed underneath so he had to wipe them away. Sudden;y he saw something which seemed to be a gift of sorts. He looked them over to see what they were and it made him sigh, he would be happy with the gesture if it wasn't for the fact that...now...he was a prisoner. The 'curse' on his arm was growing bigger and bigger and it forced him to wear a long-sleeved outfit so that nobody would find out. Now his family was in danger...
Coming out, he wore the jewelry that the 'gifter' gave him, or Dingi....he knew it was Dingi as he did the normal chores. The Harlem girls were shocked by the expensive jewelry and asked where 'she' got them from. Sohrab shook his head and said it was a gift from the family as he continued working. Fatina could see that 'Abira' was not doing ok and had asked 'her' on multiple occassions if 'she' was ok. Sohrab refused to answer, or would say 'she's fine' as he ate the food in an emotionless state.
Fatina went to Dingi when she saw he was free as she took a breath. "Something's wrong with Abira. She looks so sad, and she won't tell me why. Is there something we can do to make her feel better?"

Dingi was actually having a good day, even when all of his work needed to be done, it wasn't that bad. It was mostly trade items and things that he needed to appraise and get ready for shipping out or breaking up and selling. Fun stuff, numbers, nothing the prince couldn't handle.
For once in his life he really didn't even seek out his friends for the longest of time that day. Not until Fatina found him when he was resting and told him about Abira. "Hm? Maybe she's still a lil home sick." He mumbled and shook his head. "I'll talk to her." Dingi said with a smile and went off to find Abira--er, Sohrab. It was goign to be hard getting used to the pronoun and name change, but he was sure he could do it just fine. He fould Sohrab and pulled him aside.
He didn't beat around the bush about it either, but he did try to hide their conversation from ears that were close. "How are you doing?" He asked. "Fatina is rather worried about you, says there's something wrong."
Sohrab was a little shocked when he was pulled to the side like that. His face contorted to pain when Dingi started speaking, saying that Fatina was worried, Sohrab rubbed his infected arm and wished that in his mind that he could cry for help, for once he begged that he could just say something but his family would be in danger. Sohrab had to take in a shaky breath, "Sorry...I just had a nightmare." He lied, as he looked down onto his feet. "That red-haired girl loves to question everything." He chuckled bitterly as he then wiped his eyes. "Anyway, the nightmare...I lost some sleep over it. I'll manage for now. I'll just probably go to bed early after my work's done." He then shook his head as his hand started shaking. Knowing this, he had it stuffed in the pants pocket. "How did last night go? Sorry I couldn't see you, I was asleep when you must've came back...and thanks for the gifts...they are nice." He shows the jewels that Sohrab wore so DIngi knows it was well-appreciated.

Dingi looked over the male I front of him, eyeing and watching him closely. Things did seem a bit off, and Sohrab said it was nightmares. "Perhaps I should let shadow stay in your room. He eats nightmares." He whispered and he stepped forward and instinctativally wrapping his arms around Sohrab and pulled him close. "If you are tired, let someone else do your work and take a nap." He pulled away and gently pet the males cheek. "You do live in a place you can do that." He sighed at Sohrab.
"It was fine, I did get my puffs and no one has really eaten them so that's good." He said with a smile towards the jeweled up male. "It looks good on you." He said, eyeing the jewelry. "Very nice." He chuckled. "Seems one of our trading groups have gone missing." He did add. "And my parents have more or less settled that I will be wed a few years to the brat of that homophobic King unless I find a bride myself before then. She's not all that happy bout it either." He shrugged.
Sohrab shook his head. "You...don't have to have Shadow there....it's fine." He really wanted to keep his distance away from everyone since he did not want to bring any pain. But instead he felt arms around him and it made Sohrab want to beg for forgiveness. So Sohrab hugged him back tightly before being released and having his cheek being felt. "Well..I mean...yeah...I guess. But I don't like to free-load." He then listened to Dingi explain about his night and also confirm the jewelry was nice.
But then the other information came in and it made Sohrab a little horrified, cause now the information was relayed to the man inside his head. He wanted to tell Dingi to be quiet and not to give out something so personal. "So in a few years...huh? Well I guess it gives you time to find a better woman for you." He had a slight chuckle, although his eyes were tired. "I'll take a nap since my work is done." Sohrab backed away as he left to go to his room. He wanted help so badly. So he sat on a desk and closed his eyes. But the reason why he closed his eyes, was because of what he needed to do.
He was quiet as he got out a piece of paper and pencil and had wrote a plea for help in Chinese. Since this area was mostly Arabic, they would not know Chinese...it's too hard of a language. So he wrote on it explaining everything about how he and his family were held hostage and everything Sohrab sees and hears the assailant can hear it. He wrote this all before quietly flipping the paper to its blank side before then slowly going to the bed and laying down. He now needed to figure out what to do. He cannot do this...he just cannot. He will need to fight this assailant..one way or another. So while he slept, he was planning on how to get to it.

"it's not freeloading if I command you to rest, right?" Dingi chuckled and rolled his eyes. As if he could force Sohrab to sleep. What would he do? tape the guy's eyelids down and force feed him pills? No. He smiled a little and dropped his hand to his side. "Good, because Shadow's a creep, even when he's doign something good." He rolled his eyes knowing he had an attraction to weird people. He did smile at Sohrab though.
"Yes, probably should... But still. Don't like women." He shrugged his shoulders sighing to himself. He crossed his arms over his chest. "Alright, sleep well then, my friend. And make sure you come find me again, I'll feed you." Dingi said watching the male leave. The prince sighed and shook his head before he wandered off.
He'd go and find Fatina, if he could, to see if she was around. He wanted to be able to tell her that Sohrab was alright. When he found her he smiled at her. "Hello, doll. Um. Abira was just tired, she went to rest, but I think she'd be alright." He said with a smile, though it was a bit hard to say Abira now instead of Sohrab.

I am sorry this took long. School kicked the crap out of me
Fatina looked at Dingi as he returned while she was making some clothes. She blushed slightly when he called her a doll and that 'Abira' was just tired and went to rest. She was a bit skeptical first but she nodded regardless. "Ok..." She responded as she continued making clothes. She will check on Abira later.
Sohrab was thankful the assailant cannot hear his mind and/or thoughts. So he got up a few hours later staring down at his hands as he then got up. The jewels dangled around his neck as he had his hand gently hold onto it. What a nice man, giving you jewels like that Sohrab's eyes widened and it made his eyebrows furrow together. "Shut up man!" He exclaimed to himself as he needed to make sure no one heard it, well...Shadow can hear it and it might as well be known that Sohrab could be insane.
Such rude words. We wouldn't want your family to suffer because of that would we? Sohrab growled as he then shook his head. "Now what do you want?" The long-haired boy aggressively asked.
Well, I want to know more about your...'friend'. We now know that the trading groups are missing and he'll be wed to someone in a few years. So we now know who to go after. Sohrab's hands tightened to fists as he knew he had gotten people in danger now. Well, do you know who he truly cares for? Sohrab now had to think about it...who did Dingi care about? Well...he did care about Sabih in a way... "Why do you care?"
Well...we want to see Dingi ourselves of course. So if you can bring the person he holds dear to me, it will make sure your family will be safe. Sohrab clenched his teeth together as he knew that he will never be forgiven for this. So with his eyes closed, he picked up the paper...softly. He wrote down on the piece of paper in English: "Give to Dingi". before opening his eyes. Sohrab made absolute sure he did not look down. "I'll go."
He came out of his room to see Fatina was walking out and her eyes widened with a smile. "OH! How you doing? Did you get a good nap?" She asked to which Sohrab nodded. "I....well..I need to talk to Sabih..do you know where he is?" Fatina didn't find it strange since Abira seemed close to Dingi and Sabih. "He's hanging out with Nayu as usual.""Thank you." He then slipped a piece of paper in her hands; the paper that was crying for help. Fatina was confused and turned around to say something but Sohrab vanished quickly so that the assailant didn't hear. Fatina raised a brow as she stared down at the paper...it said 'Dingi' on it so she assumed it was to him again. So she went around looking for him once again.
Sohrab went out to the garden, assuming that Nayu was near the waters like usual. So he walked around, looking for Sabih. He hoped that Sabih would forgive him for the things to come.

Dingi had smiled at Fatina, examining her work. He didn't remark on it, but he did make note of her talent. He left her to it. The prince would find his way to a courtyard that was often passed, but rarely used, as everyone knew it was sacred ground, and for use of only by the royals. Dingi would enter the wildfolower covered courtyard and he sat in the middle, in which no grass nor flower grew. the yard was small enough that one can yell from one end and be heard o the other end. This place was where Dingi meditated, and balanced out his energies. Everyone would have known never to bother him during this, as it could really rather hurt them, so questions had to wait.
Shadow, of course did hear Sohrab going off his rocker talking to himself, but he really didn't pay attentin to it, he had better things to do thant o listen to Sohrab and his imaginary friend fight. He couldn't read what Sohrab wrote either, all he could read was Dingi's name, really. He watched the interaction between Fatina and Sohrab, and quickly got bored with it, too, and left them alone.
Sabih was, as predicted, by the water. His feet were dipped into it and thegod of choice was prancing around like a hyper child in the water, barely formed. He did quickly shape up when he saw Sohrab. He didn't pay attention to Sohrab as he was too busy chasing fish around. Sabih pulled his feet from the river and he waved to 'Abira'. "hey lady, long time no see, what's up?" He said, gesturing Abira closer to him. He didn't stand like hw was supposed to do when a woman came near, but then again, he never did follow that rule.
Sohrab sighed, he would have to find out how to get Sabih to follow him...follow him to a...impending doom. But he promised himself, that he will be the first to die. Not his family...not Dingi....not Sabih...it will be all him. So with that he sat down next to Sabih, trying to keep his face normal in a way and to prevent his eyes from getting watery. "Yeah...long time no see." He had a short chuckle, although it was...what people would call... 'half-assed'. "I uhh...I got a favor to ask of you. And I am sorry for the trouble." He then had to take in a breath before speaking. "Dingi has met my family, but we...we kind of mentioned you a bit as well. The family wants to meet you...it's ridiculous I know...but my Aunt....likes to know who I am hanging out with....sometimes I wish she would stop worrying about me." He rubbed his neck, his other hand gripped on the ground. "Sorry for the trouble, I am trying to get them to back off..but my Aunt is pretty stubborn. Well..she has to...since she is a widow." He took a shaky breath, hopefully no one caught it. "So I hope you don't mind. It doesn't have to be today, tomorrow will be fine also."
Fatina went around the place, trying to find Dingi. She didn't know where he was until she asked another woman. The woman told her that he went out to his 'meditation' spot, so it was best to wait for him to be done. Fatina sighed, not seeing the full extent of Abira's situation, she decided to wait, stuffing the letter in her pocket. But curiosity overtook her. She wanted to know the language and what it said. So in the meantime, she had decided to look around for a translator.

Sabih blinked at Sohrab and the request. "Well, sure, But you'll have to translate for me. I am not gifted in tongues of man, just this one, and water... and fish... Is it weird I talk to fish, but i cant talk to people of different languages?" He asked, chuckling a little and he smiled at Sohrab, noticing the nervousness, but he calked it up to the 'woman' feeling awkward about having to ask Sabih. "Any time you like then. It's not like I ever do anything important around here anyways." He snickered. "I'll go after any meal, I dont like visiting people on an empty stomach."
Dingi calmed himself right on down and when he was done, he laid in the scorched grass, yawning. He didn't want to move now, he was a little ache to be honest. He would lay there for a bit before he got up. THe prince stretched his arms up in a long, spine cracking stretch before he left the garden in search of, you guessed it, food. For a guy who never worked out, and ate a ton, Dingi was more fit than the average joe. He'd wander around trying to find one of this servants who always had her homemade candies on her, and would share with him, of course, finding someone like that in the place was hard.
Sohrab had a small smile. "That is actually interesting...talking to fish. Sometimes I wonder what's on their mind." He then was...somewhat relieved that Sohrab can redeem himself...today...rather than wait until tomorrow. "Yeah, we are both hungry are we?" He chuckled, although he still had his hand tighten its grip on the grass. "I still have the ring Dingi gave me that allows me to teleport to and fro. So there's nothing to worry about." He then stood up and had his hands in his pockets. "I'll probably see you at dinner." Sohrab then walked away, trying to keep his head from turning around and bailing out in tears. I need to do it....even if I have to die...
Time had passed before it reached dinnertime. Sohrab was somewhat nervous to see Fatina was not around....was she able to give Dingi the letter? Not like Sohrab wanted Dingi to help him, the letter would just explain his feelings, and that they will never see each other again. Sohrab just hoped that Dingi could read Chinese. Sohrab sat with the others as they had dinner, Sohrab made sure to eat everything that was on his plate, fearing it will be his last meal. Sohrab looked down to see the glass, reflecting on the surface of Sohrab's paled and melancholy face. He couldn't falter now...he needed to be strong for this one...at the least. With eating everything, Sohrab took his leave and went to the front door, waiting for Sabih. He hoped the man would take his time, as Sohrab wanted to appreciate his small life...even though it meant nothing to some.

"I can sum it up for you, if you like. Swim swim swim, eat eat eat, breed breed breed, dont get killed. They never have anything exciting to say... normal fish that is, there's a few that are quite gifted." Sabih said as he saw his god sit in the water with his face in it. He'd drown like that, if he were human, but Sabih paid no attention to it. "I just dont like when people are burdened with cooking me a meal when they're not prepared to feed an extra person." He chuckled and he nodded. "Alright, should be fine then, whenever is good for you. And I'll see you at dinner too." He said, watching Sohrab walk away, none the wiser to what was bothering the male.
Dinner came and Dingi didn't run into the servant he was looking for, or Fatina for that mater, so he just went to dinner instead. He sat with his parents, as always and he ate. There was a mix of foods, both Arabic and western, most notably there was steak and potatoes, one of Dingi's favors. He sat and ate it rapidly.
Sabih ate as well, scarfing food down his throat. When he was finished, he went back to his room to get a scarf for himself, and shoes before he met Sohrab at the door. "So, is your family nice? I'd ask why we couldn't bring Nayu, but I guess a near naked god in the house of a human would be rather... off." He teased, waiting for Sohrab to lead the way.
