It was a peaceful morning in the Solon Manor, the birds were singing, the sun was up, and the staff were able to do their jobs with ease. A peaceful moment like this was something the staff could only dream of, as they were staff of the Solon family. Also known as 'The House of The Greatest Intimidation', the most feared and respected dukedom in the empire.

They are known for being absolutely insane, and dangerous, thus meaning daily life would be chaotic, especially with the children of the Solons. With the parents being as crazy and wild as they are, the children would most definetly be 10x wilder, and they are. They are loud, crazy, ambitious, and very tiring. Because of this, nobody dared to mention it. If even one of them pointed out how quiet it was, the day would turn hectic in an instant.

Recently, the house of the Solon had hired a new batch of maids and servants. They had just arrived a few days ago, and didn't know about the may untold rules of the house. So when one would break one of these rules, they would be told about the rule and be forgiven. Usually, the new employees would understand and promise not to do it again, but sometime...people can be a bit..rude.

"Y'know Jade, It's so peaceful and quiet right now, I don't understand why people say that the House of The Solon is a loud manor to work at". Said a young maid with short caramel hair, and mysterious green eyes.

"I know, It's so quiet. Is this the hectic atmosphere people talk about? If it is then there is actually no way it can get worse". Responded another maid with beautiful blonde hair, and warm brown eyes.

"Olivia, Jade....y-you just..." A maid with scarlet hair muttered, an expression of terror on her face, her blood ran down her body in horror, and left her face pale.

"Just what"? The one with caramel hair asked.

"You just said the...forbidden words.." The scarlet hair had tears in the corners of her eyes.

"The forbidden words? What do you mean? There was no forbidden words when we were given training". The blonde remarked.

"No....your don't understand, you said the words, the words that brings the utmost bad luck". The woman whispered in a panicked tone.

"Bad luck? What word could possibly bring bad luck"? The blonde questioned.

"Don't tell me your one of those supersticious people, Miss Aria, could someone really be that dumb to believe in that?" The caramel hair replied.

"Pfft, has she seen the atmosphere? It's obviously peaceful and quiet, not hectic and loud". The blonde said, mocking the scarlet haired maid.

The two girls laughed at their superior's 'foolishness' and started making fun of her, and began questioning how she is their superior.

Just then, a sword was thrown dangerously close the the blonde's face, and got stuck in the wall behind them.

They looked in the direction the sword was thrown in and say two boys wearing upper-class attire arguing over something. "Well for someone that says their the best at everything, you sure do suck at sword fighting". The taller, purpled haired remarked. "Shut up, Ben, for someone that mingles with girls as long as you have, you sure can't seem to have a girlfriend"! Shouted the black haired one with an extremely annoyed face.

The blonde was too stunned to speak, she was petrified, not only from the sword thrown just inches from her face, but the two boys who were fighting. 'Could those be....?' She thought.

"Now look at what you've done, you two, you brought the boys over to our wing"! The scarlet haired sighed. She grabbed the sword out from the wall and held it carefully. She walked towards a random butler asked him to give the sword to the duke. "Today is gonna be hectic.." She said under her breath in a disappointed tone.

The two boys continued their bantering while walking through the halls, slowly getting louder, louder, louder, louder and louder.

The butler knocked on the duke's door and waited for the duke's permission to enter. Once he got the green flag he entered and showed the sword to the duke. "You don't have to tell me, I already know, I was just about to get them". Then, they started yelling, and at this point, the duke truly had enough of them.

He sighed and dropped his quill and paper, and walked out of his study. He kept walking until he found the boys. His eyes glaring at the two boys that were bickering in front of him. He stopped and just watched them, with his arms crossed, not making a sound. The two boys were too caught up in there bickering to realize who was standing at the side of them.

"Ahem". Coughed the man in a stern voice. The two boys flinched and instantly stopped talking. They turned their heads slowly, now facing the man that caught their attention. They knew that voice...

"O-oh...hey dad...what are you doing..here?" The purple hair boy asked sheepishly.

"Yeah..what are you doing here, our great, amazing, wonderful, father..?" The black haired responded.

The man just glared at them, then he finally spoke up. "Do you two mind explaining to me why I can hear you screaming from my study"? He glared even deeper into their souls as he said that.

"I-I-...oh-...um...because..because...we.." "Because you have incredible hearing, honestly, anyone would be jealous of your spectacular hearing. Especially at your age". The purple hair said confidently, thinking he had it under control.

The man furrowed he eyebrows at this remark. "So you're calling me old now"? "W-what? No, of course not, we were just saying...that..y'know...people don't have as incredible hearing as you do in your guys's age.." The man glared at them once more before speaking. "You two, follow me, NOW". He started walking the opposite direction he came in by, indicating that they should follow him, and they did as instructed.

It was quite funny, seeing as the boys were bickering just two minutes ago, and now, they were walking in a straight line not saying anything. They both looked at the floor not wanting to even get a peek of their father's angry face. He was pretty scary when he was mad, then again, he's scary whenever. They kept walking to different areas of the manor, each time there were less staff, it was very concerning. And then, they started walking down a couple flights of stairs. They wanted to look up, but were too afraid.

Then the duke stopped when he reached a huge metal door that had a heavy lock on it. He took out a key that was made of a rare stone, and looked like it was covered in blood staines. He held the large lock in his hands and stuck the key in, turned it, and the lock fell on the ground, causing a loud crash.

That caught the two boys attention, and they finally looked off the ground. When they saw what door they were in front of, they were horrified. They knew what that room was. The duke opened the door then looked at them, "Come on, stop doing nothing and follow me". They hesitantly followed him once more, knowing what was to come. The duke walked behind the boys and shut door, locking it. He then turned to look at them once more, and pulled up his sleeves, getting ready for what was about to happen.

"So what do you think the boys are doing"? A young girl with black hair and purple eyes asked to the girl next to her. "Hmm, they probably did something dumb again and got caught by dad, but don't worry about them Kiera. Now that their gone, we can finally have some peace". "Ahah.."

Kiera, the younger girl, sighed and took a sip of her tea. "Mmm, this is good". "I know right, I was think about inviting mom to join us, but then I remembered that she has to do paperwork". "She has to do more paperwork"? "Yeah". Kiera felt a bit dissapointed, her mother always had to do paperwork.

That was when she had an idea, her face lit up and she hugged her sister. "I have an idea". "You do"? "Mhm". Kiera leaned into her sister's ear and wisperd her idea. The lighter haired nodded her head in agreement and got up from the chair she was sitting in. Kiera did so as well, and they began walking away from the table, radiating with confidence.
