{"Yuoshoka come, follow me."}
Yuoshoka was confused,how could she follow a voice with no body.
{"Come Yuoshoka, you must follow."}
"How can I follow you, who are you?"
The voice pauses for a moment and speaks again.
{"I'm someone that can help you get away from them but, you'll have to help us first."}
"Us, who is this us, are there others?"
The people at the table became vivid again,but no longer laughing and chatting. They're all staring at her.
"Are you alright dear, you were talking to yourself a little, do you need rest?" A woman says to Yuoshoka. Yuoshoka already knew what she meant, she meant did she need mental help.
"No I'm perfectly fine,but thank you anyways."
Yuoshoka listens for the voice again and calls out to it, but it doesn't answer her.
<"Guess it was just a false.">
Yuoshoka just absently listens to the people at the table chatting. She gets bored of this, leaves the table, and roams around the huge castle. She smells a unfamiliar scent, and follows it to a room. She opens the door, and sees a boy about the age of nineteen sitting on his bed reading a book.
She just stares at him for a moment,taking in his smell for she may have to remember it later on.
The boy looks up from his book and looks at her with wolf like eyes.
Yuoshoka slightly jumped and blushes from embarrassment but settles down afterwards.
"I'm sorry I didn't know this was someone's room."
The boy chuckles at her knowing she was staring at him for quite some time now.
"It's quite alright little one. What your name there.?"
"My names Yuoshoka, what's yours.?"
"The names Zake, it's very nice to meet ya Yuoshoka."
Just then a maid walks by and panics.
She grabs Yuoshoka by the hand gently, careful not to startle her and end up like the other maid from before.
She had heard about it from Lia and it frightened her, but this situation frightens her more.
Yuoshoka isn't supposed to meet Zake, ever.
"Come Mi'Lady, we must get you ready for bed now." The maid said in a rushed voice.
Zake frowned at the maid and growled slightly.
The maid flinches but stood her ground of the dog boy.
"I'm very sorry Zake, but Mi'Lady has to sleep now, and so do you."
"Tch, don't tell me what ta do Miranda, ya not ma mother."
The maid now known as Miranda, rolls her eyes at Zake and drags Yuoshoka to her room.
Zake flicks Miranda off and continues reading his book. <"That girl smells like that woman, could she be. No not possible, but then again who knows.?">
Miranda and Yuoshoka reaches Yuoshoka's room, and the maid closes and locks the door. She looks at Yuoshoka and smiles.
<"How could a little girl like Yuoshoka, inflict such damage on a single maid, with one single blow to the face. It's quite fascinating.">
Yuoshoka hears Miranda's thoughts and becomes disgusted by them.
<"Why must everyone be so disgustingly proud of me killing?">
"All you people disgust me greatly."
The maid widens her eyes at Yuoshoka, but then bows her head in apology and respect toward her.
"Very sorry Mi'Lady, I'll try my best to be your personal maid."
