Scales of Imprisonment

The new challenges the old

So the eggs have hatched. And Sam came back. The kids wanted me more so they've been staying w/ me and the party. Unfortunately when they first hatch they look like actual snakes. Tiff is not happy to say the least. She said and I quote if these snakes aren't cute when they get their human forms then she's kicking us out.

"So how do you like having 2 dozen kids cling to you?" Bronx asks. I'm currently wrapped in my snake kids. And the dragon kids are just clinging onto me for dear life. Yeah half of them are snakes and the other half is dragon. The dragons look like lizards.

"We it makes me remember them and the small differences are they're smaller and there's more of them." I say. He laughs at that.

"Um babe?" Violet asks cautiously.

"What's wrong?" I ask concerned.

"Rose got challenged, so can you deal w/ the kids a bit longer?" Violet asks nervously.

"Um... sure? But why were you so afraid to ask?" I ask.

"Well because of that." She says pointing at the kid blanket I have on me.

"Ok fair." I say in response.

"But we're not sure how long it will last. So send someone to get me and I'll come for a while." She says. I nod. Then she's gone.

"Can a guard or someone bring me to my mates? And can another one take the kids?" I ask. It damn near been a whole fucking day!

"Are you sure?" A guard asks.

"Yes. Don't worry if they get upset I'll just say I made you." I answer.

"Ok. Follow me." He says and leads the way. We walked for sometime before we finally got there.

"Thank you." I say to dismiss him. He bows then leaves. I go towards the clearing. That's when I start to hear voices.

"We are our own kingdom! And have been for a while! So why is it now you have a problem!?" I hear Rose yell.

"Because our queen and her mates were nearly killed here! We found them in time sure, but look at them! They look fucking depressed as fuck!" A male says. I make my way far enough in and gasp at the sight. Not only is Rose fucking bleeding like fucking water rushing down a waterfall but I see 3 ghosts.

"Who the hell are you!?" The male asks.

"What are you doing here babe?!?" Rose and Violet asks.

"Ours!" Is what the ghost say.

"Babes come here now." I say lack of emotions. The ghost try to come over but stop when they see my mates move to me.

"Get away from her!" A ghost says.

"Shut the fuck up!" I yell. The male growls at me but the ghosts stop him. "You three are supposed to be dead. So why are you here and not decomposing?" I ask.

"Babe! You can't say that! They're here fighting us because those 3 almost died and they think it was us!" Violet says.

"My mates had nothing to do w/ that. I cut off their heads." I say.

"Mates!?" The ghosts yell.

"Yes! Now Hades, Stormy, and Sky why are you trying to fight my mates?!" I say slowly. Letting the anger in my voice become more pronounce.

"I'm the queen of the Farming quadrant. And my people went looking for me and my mates when we didn't come back. We were found in the Resource quadrant which they rule. We weren't supposed to be gone as long as we were chasing you. So they found us before 24 hrs had passed. That's how long it takes for us to fully die from decapitation." She informs.
