Yugure

WHY?!

(Silver POV)

I haven't been allowed outside in four days. I haven't been allowed near a window for four days. I haven't been allowed to take off my cloak while walking around the base in four days...

I've been slowly going insane for four days... So much so, that I'm pretty sure I saw a black-haired guy wearing yellow outside the window after the meeting... I haven't said anything about it, I've already freaked out over seeing what I thought was a snake... But turned out to be Tails, and I'm not trusting myself anymore.

"Silver? What are you doing?" I heard Jay ask while I was in mid thought.

"What?" I asked quietly,

"... You're- you're staring at a wall, and you have been for forty-five minutes." He explained.

"Sorry sir...." I replied.

Jay cleared his throat. "Whatever, I have a few jobs for you... I figured you could use something to do..." He said before pulling out a list. "I need you to do the breakfast dishes, clean the girls' bedroom, then clean the kitchen, make lunch, you can take a break to eat with us, then clean the girls' sitting room and finally do the lunch dishes." I blankly stared at him, did he really need me to do all that!?

"Oh oops..." He said watching another paper slip fall from his pocket. "I also need you to clean the girls' bathroom and wash the blankets before this evening." He said before handing me the pieces of paper. I stared again.

"Come on, get going." He said before walking away.

"I can handle being a fugitive, I've been a prisoner for the past few weeks, but I draw the line at a slave!" I thought to myself. But what chance did I have? No matter what I'm still here to not be an actual prisoner...

I walked into the kitchen, the dishes weren't too bad, I mean, for the average day... There are ten of us after all... I got to work and finished in about an hour and fifteen minutes. I went to the girls bedroom and picked up the covers and put them in laundry bins

The rest of the day included blindly doing chores, and taking breaks.

Eventually I finally finished. I walked back to the girl's bedrooms nod lied down. The sun had just gone down, and everyone was still out and about.

"Silver? Lynn said she would appreciate if you could do a few cleaning jobs around the base..." I heard Rin say.

"How urgent?" I asked tiredly.

"She said ASAP... And that she hopes you don't mind staying up for a few hours..." Rin explained.

I got up and walked over to Daelynn, it wasn't easy, but I did it... I fell asleep almost immediately once I got the chance...

I almost wished I had someone who knew the pain of having to hide... Of being hunted... But then again, it's not like I'd ever meet up with another Triche that wasn't Silica... And who (who ever wasn't a Triche.) would want to talk to me anyway? Oh well...

I fell asleep having another nightmare, however unlike the usual ones that resulted in me being killed after being imprisoned, I was told I was going to live, under the condition I would be a slave...

I woke up to the sound of the usual chaotic morning... I was the only one in the room though... Was I really that tired? To miss the wake up call? That's when Lynn walked in.

"Oh, sorry Silver, I intended to let you sleep, I heard Jay had assigned you many things too, so we're giving you the next two days off, or with light housework... I can tell we've been driving you crazy keeping you... Prisoner? Is what you called it?" She explained.

"Uuuuhhhhhh......" I said in reply before she laughed and walked away. I was dead, she read my mind... I was about to put to more work than any slave could ever imagine...
