Our Little Secret

Lunch

Amity walked through the castle halls. It was around lunch, so she was going to go eating in Bones Borough with Boscha. Amity groaned. "What is taking Boscha so long....." Amity dragged out the last word, getting frustrated. Her and Boscha have been friends since school, which meant they never really split. Amity paced back and forth, she had been waiting long enough. She left the front doors, crossing the bridge. Amity waited on the other side of the bridge for Boscha, getting pissed. "WHY IS SHE TAKING SO LONG!??!" Amity summoned an Abomination. She started thinking, back to her childhood. Her father was an amazing Abominationist, sure her mother was a pain but it's not like it mattered anymore. She never talked to her mother, her father was on a whole other island too. Amity knew she used to be friends with Willow, but that didn't work. So she became a bully with Boscha and Skara. Now they made it to the top. Edric and Emira still kept in contact, only on the weekends when she wasn't in the castle. Amity was thankful Luz- The Emperor, gave the Coven Head's the weekends off. The scouts had a complex schedule though, so Amity never really cared about their schedules. 

Amity did hear about a human in Bones Borough when she was younger, sure, but she never knew that the exact same human could learn magic and become Emperor!! Amity sighed, sitting on a rock. She knew that her dad was with another Abominationist. His name was Darius Deamonne? It didn't matter, he only called her once a year for an annual check in on things. The twins made sure to visit him more often since they weren't in anything like The Emperor's Coven, nor were they any Coven Head. Amity did her best though, and she ended up beating them in any score. Lost in thought, Amity sighed. She hadn't been this bored since... well.... ever! What was taking Boscha and Skara so long? "UGH!" Amity groaned, using Abomination goop to slash a tree. She didn't knock it over... yet. "Ms. Blight." Amity tensed, and shrieked. "Now, is that anyway to address you Emperor?" Amity turned to Luz- The Emperor. "I'm sorry, please forgive me." Amity knelt down. "Please, get off of your knee. I don't need you to do that all the time, you look like you are begging." Amity stood up, dusting off her pants. "My apologies." The Emperor nodded, her golden cat mask gleaming in the Sun. "It's nothing. Tell me, Ms. Blight. Why are you waiting out here? Let alone getting frustrated?" Amity sighed, "I am waiting for Coven heads Skara and Boscha, but they are taking their time." "What for?" "We were going to get lunch together today. As we do every Tuesday." 

The Emperor tilted her head, "If I may ask, why Tuesday?" Amity shrugged, smiling. "When we took Coven tryouts, we got lunch together Tuesday. After we got promoted Coven Heads, we started getting lunch together every Tuesday. It's nothing much, but we do go to a little coffee shop in Bones Borough on Sunday's as well." Amity looked back at The Emperor. "Ahh, must be nice to have a little friend get together." Amity nodded. "I was actually looking for you, Ms. Blight." Amity tensed again, the feeling much less strong, but still. It was a demand from The Emperor, which meant it was important. "Have you sent out the scout party for the rebellion?" Amity gulped, "No. I have yet to reach King, but I will-" "No. It's alright. I was just wondering, given I heard Willow giving the order to Kikimora." Amity nodded, "My apologies, Emperor. I will do better." The Emperor sighed, "It's alright, Ms. Blight. Don't slip up again, at least you do not forget who I am. This time." 

The Emperor walked back into her castle, guards and scouts surrounding her. Amity was left tense, "Oh my Titan, Am's. The Emperor speaks to you like that? And what does she mean by 'this time.'?" Skara walked up to her. Amity let out her breath, she didn't even know she was holding, and smiled. "It's nothing. I slipped up with her title yesterday. Where is Boscha?" Skara shrugged. "She said she was busy with a mission today." Amity nodded. "And you're free for lunch?" Skara shook her head, "I have to send out a few scout's today, and I have a few documents to order." Amity nodded, "I'll just get lunch by myself. We can do this next week." Skara nodded and hugged Amity, "See you later!" Skara walked off and Amity walked through the woods to get to town. She had a small coffee and a sandwich when she got to the usual spot. She went back to the castle, taking her time. When she arrived, she went to a hall and relaxed, still on lunch.
