KHAOS

Day 12

Liv points to a boy and girl holding hands, "Are they mates?" She asks and I nod.

Another person walks by, a girl with short black hair and brown eyes, Liv asks me who she is.

"New girl." I tell her, "Her name's Sasha. You've been missing a lot of drama since you've been hanging out with Ajax. Are you guys together?"

"Erm..Well..I'm not actually sure." She stutters, "If his father found out he won't be happy."

"You're right." I say, "King Terros could put you to death because of that."

"He could?"

"Yes."

Liv rolls her eyes, "That man is a lunatic."

"He is." I agree. "Hmm..." She continues, "What about Bell and that boy Lou...Liam..."

"Lance." I remind her, she nods "Yes, Lance."

"He's interested but I don't think Bell is picking up on his hints."

"Oh."

A guard marches over to Liv and me, he grabs me by my arm and roughly pulls me forward. He is muscular and talk so flinging me around wouldn't be an issue for him.

"You!" He yells, getting tiny droplets of saliva on my face. I try to stop myself from cringing. "Number 13! Stop lazying around and get to work!"

I nod and the guard lets me go. I land on the ground with a hard thud.

Ouch.

"What work?" Liv asks me as he leaves. I shrug, "I have no idea."

"Did he call you a number?" I nod and rub my sore arm, "Yeah the guards give us numbers, some get letters. You don't have one cause everyone thinks you're with Ajax....By the way, be careful of Gretta I think she's trying to kill you."

Liv smirks and crossbar arms proudly. "Yeah I know." She says with a smug grin, "She can't do anything though."

"Yes, but still be careful." I want but Liv just  rolls her eyes.

"Sure, whatever."

The guard comes back, this time he grabs my hair and pulls me to where other girls are, he kicks me, and I fall on the ground. I'm surprised I didn't fly straight into a wall with the force of that kick.

Some girls walk towards me, they smile not minding the huge frown I have on my face because of the burning pain in my stomach.

"Newbie." The three girls say in unison, I look at them in confusion, one rolls her hazel eyes at me.

"You're lost, aren't you?" The girl asks me, "Come with us."

I nod and they lead me to a castle, not just any castle, the king's residence!

We enter the kitchen, the oldest girl amongst the three hands me a brush and tells me to clean.

"What exactly do I clean?" I inquire and she glares, "Anything that looks like it should be cleaned! Stupid!"

Okay, didn't have to be so mean.

I go out of the kitchen and into the passageway, bend down and start scrubbing the floors, a girl around my age walks over to me.

"Oh no! You're doing it wrong." She points out and I look at her, "What do you mean?" I ask.

"That brush is for the windows, not the floors." She corrects me.

"My mistake." I admit, "Thanks."

"No worries."

"Where should I go then?" I ask her looking around.
