The tribute chapter 32. Chatter
It was a rainy evening, and the two girls were cleaning the walls. They moved together, so they could talk, and split the work evenly. Today they found themselves discussing why they were even there. "My village was taken over by the kingdom a few years back." Meredith said, her blonde hair swishing with the movement of the sponge. "I was taken here, and forced into maid duty. My boyfriend had been working as an adventurer for a while now., trying to earn money to buy my freedom." Her eyes lowered, and her movement slowed. "But you'll get out eventually, right?" Neila asked from beside her. Meredith nodded, and continued cleaning. "I hope so. What about you?" Neila shrugged. "My mother died giving birth to me, so i suppose my father always had it out for me. One i told him i was lesbian, he sold me into this business. I've got no way out." Meredith patted her shoulder. "At least we're here together, right?" Neila smiled. "Yeah, at least we're together." The buckets of soapy water they carried sloshed around as they moved down the hallways. "You know, Neila.." Meredith started. Neila looked over at her. "There's something i should probably show you..." Meredith looked down at her hands, and back up at Neila. "Promise you won't hate me?" She asked. "Of course not!" Neila says, concerned for her friend. Neila watched as Meredith opened her mouth, and two long, sharp canines slid down behind her normal ones. Meredith removed her gloves, and Neila watched as claws slid out from her fingertips. "I am part monster...." Meredith slid everything back, and pulled her gloves on again. "That's all i can do, though..." Neila stared at her, unable to speak. "Ive been using it alone more, trying to learn how to use it to fight because..." She paused and looked up. "I want to pretend to be loyal, and then kill the king."
