They roughly grabbed my shoulders and spun me around then another put me in handcuffs. Don't struggle.
I nodded as they shoved me into the closest wagon and ordered I be taken to the palace gates. The merchant hastily obliged.Then the guards sat beside of me.
"What now?"I whispered.
Wait until we're in the castle, then let me take control.I rolled onto my side,my cheek pressing against the wooden bed.Soon I heard keys jangling and the screeching of the gates.
"Take him round back to the servant door."The merchant yelled then there was a rough thud.Probably the merchant. Gasps of astonished ladies sounded as we passed across what seemed to be a spacious court yard.A door swung on it's hinges and the guards hauled me out of the wagon. I was forced to stand then was blindfolded.
"Why? "
"Shut up!"I got a rough slap to the face then they pushed me forward.A few minutes later we stopped and I could hear big,old doors creak open.I was walked over to somewhere and was forced to sit down.My blindfold was removed to reveal that I was in a throne room with elegant white walls and pillars.Then a young woman with red hair sat at a silver lined throne with plush cushioning. She was in a beautiful black hoop dress with white trim.
"Leave. "The guards hurried out and she settled her gaze on me."Who are you?"
"Sukia. "She shook her head.
"No, I mean the one you share bodies with."
I spoke ,I didn't have any control of my mouth and was astonished when Orochi used a polite tone of voice.
"Orochi. "
She got up.
"As you know,I am Queen Maude,and I have a request for you. Join the Hunters. Your job will be to assassinate people like you. You and your body will serve whether you want to do so or not. "Orochi forced me to launch myself at the queen.She responded with amazing speed.A blade appeared in her hand and she already had us pinned to the ground with the point at my neck. "Don't. "She sighed. "Now, you will do as I say no questions asked, or you will return to where you were summoned and your host will be killed."She motioned toward something and monks in white robes came then held me down. "For good."She was handed tongs that held a white hot metal cross .She opened my shirt then Orochi began to struggle.She pressed the cross against the center of my chest. I let out a scream combined with an unearthly roar .The pain was unbearable and I had barely had time to catch my breath as she was handed nails and a hammer. She inserted one nail into a hole at the top of the cross.I screamed as she pounded it and others into my chest. "You will atone for your sins,you will follow the will of Jesus Christ,and the Holy One, our heavenly father."She walked away from us.Tears rolled down my cheeks and my flesh throbbed.That'll scar.
"No shit..."I muttered as I was blindfolded again and was picked up.A few minutes later a door opened and I was carried a few feet then dropped onto a bed. My blindfold was removed and the door was locked behind the monks.
"What now?"
We rest.But that bitch has a seal of Solomon.
"Which is...?"
It's let's her have control over and protection from things like me.
"Oh."I groaned and went to sleep.
