Aphmau's Secret

Chapter 10 - EDITED

Master's here!

Oh gosh, will she be proud of me or will she hate me? I mean, I got the sack that she wanted but she had to come and get me herself. I'm so confused, this is so confusing, women are so confusing. Humans are confusing!

"What are you doing here, you Beast?" Lord Aaron sneered as I growled at him. Surprised at my reaction, the gears in his head were spinning as to why I was protecting my Master, interrupting his thoughts, Master spoke up.

"Hello Aaron, long time no see, last I saw you, you were such the wimp." Master smirked as she crossed her arms. That's Master to you. Clearly angered by her words, Lord Aaron growled at her and acting out of instinct, I immediately growled back at him.

"Calm down Lunar," Master cooed before turning back to Lord Aaron, "it's just his immature way of dealing with things."

Growling more, Lord Aaron retorted back "What do you want you Beast?". Smirking, Master rolled her eyes before retorting back, "Do you mean yourself? Anyways, I got what I came here for, come on Lunar."

Without hesitating, I followed Master out of Lord Aaron's home, leaving him speechless.

" By the way, thanks for the sack Aaron!" Master waved before exiting.

"You Beast! When you die, I'll be sure that you'll be buried in a body bag instead of a grand coffin." Lord Aaron hollered after Master.

"Thanks, be sure to make it glittery." Master replied before exiting.

...

The walk back to O'khasis wasn't entertaining as expected. Both Lunar and I returned the sack, soon after, went to a mini cafe and headed back to Garte's place. Yeah, nothing too special...

Walking through the gates, the guards saluted me before stopping Lunar in her track, "Halt! Why were you following Lady Aphmau?"

"Calm down boys." I all but sighed, at least they were doing their job right unlike those Falcon Claw guards, "she's my apprentice."

Looking dumbfounded like the idiots they truly were, I led Lunar to my room and got her settled down. Just as I was thinking of introducing Lunar to Sky, he pops up from the chandelier. Honestly, just think about him in the bathroom and he can appear from the bathtub.

"Hey Jess, who this?" Sky asked, pointing at Lunar as he jumped off the chandelier.

"Oh, my new apprentice. Her name is Lunar." I merely shrugged as I headed over to a nearby chair to rest in with Lunar following me diligently from behind.

"Why you gotta be like this Jess? You always have something that lasts forever." Sky complained as he started chewing off a stick of 'budder'.

"Well, nobody asked you to send off your last apprentice to the Nether to get glowstone over the sea of lava unprepared." I retorted back, shrugging off my cloak in the process, "come one Lunar, sit beside me." I said as I pointed to a chair beside me.

"Well, it wasn't MY fault that he wasn't actually THAT prepared..." Sky lingered on as he nabbed a few cookies from a jar in front of us.

"Well," I started, mocking him, "it technically was your fault that he went unprepared. You gave him ACTUAL 'budder' armour and weapons! No wonder it melted!"

"What?! It actually looked like the real deal!" he argued back, nomming on a few cookies before reaching into his back pocket, pulling out a piece of 'budder', he began nomming on it as well. Seriously, isn't it uncomfortable to be sitting on it for long be it real or fake?

Not wanting to argue any longer, I pulled out my notebook, wanting to prepare some plans for my lessons before Sky disturbed my thoughts for fun lessons, "Hey Jess, have you wondered how the rest of the Gang are doing?"

Turning away from my notebook to look at Sky, he was still nomming on his piece of 'budder' staring intently at me. That guy may be an idiot but he can really be smart when he wants to, " I don't really know, honestly, the one that I'm really worried about is Ross."

"Nah," Sky declined, still nomming on his 'budder', "I'm seriously more worried about Ross."

Looking at each other, the both of us bursted out laughing as we talked about the good memories that we used to have together as the Gang with Lunar asking questions that piqued her interest at several occasions.
