Soldier Guts and Glory Butts

Prologue: Daily Routine

Glory Ross walked into Walmart. She stepped across the tiled floors, relishing the scent of sweat and food. She stepped past a shelf chock full of slip n' slides and picked up a box. "How nice would it be to have this?" She wondered.
She checked the pockets of her blue jeans for her wallet. She reached in and grabbed it, opening it to see nothing in it. She shook it upside down with a note saying, 'I needed to borrow some money. I won't be able to pay you back by the way. Sincerely, Emma.' Glory scoffed. "Why would Emma steal my money? It's not like she is queen or something!" She shouted, not realizing she said that aloud.
People stared at her when someone tapped her shoulder. They were wearing a crown and were wearing kingly clothes. They asked Glory, "Do you want to rule beside me?" Glory responded with, "No. We. No."
He stepped away and frowned. The person said,"You are going to be my princess. Princess Glory and King Jon." Glory shook her head and looked at Jon's crown. "Why did he need to have her?" Glory thought.

King Jon saw the dismayed look on Glory's face and immediately pulled a gun. "Glory! Glory? Glory Ross get out here!" A voice shouted. Glory groaned and got out of bed.

She walked to the bathroom and brushed her teeth, avoiding the mirror for hate of her looks. Glory quickly brushed her hair and stepped outside, quietly closing the door.

"Mom! Is Sound up yet?" She shouted downstairs. Her mom shouted back, "You should know that Sound is always first up!" Glory sighed about the prospect of feeding her dog so early in the morning.

She quickly dressed herself, changing from her nightgown with a dog on it to a pair of blue jeans and a black tee-shirt.

Glory walked downstairs and she was greeted by a bundle of fur that pressed itself down on the floor in excitement.

"Hi Sound," Glory chuckled. Sound used to be a hunting beagle that refused to hunt. Glory impressionated a wolf's howl and Sound cocked her head. In return, the small silver, brown, and black dog howled to her.

Glory sat down and ate breakfast. A strawberry poptart with a cup of Tampico. Glory rolled her eyes and abandoned her half eaten poptart.

She walked over to the base of her steep wooden stairs and looked into the bag of dog food. She took the small cup from inside it and filled it about halfway. At this point, Sound was jumping on Glory to get the food.

Glory walked over to the small table and picked up one of the pet dishes that were under it. Glory, still holding the dog food and cup, put the dog food in and got some yogurt out of the fridge.

She put a spoonful in and mixed it around, the sound pleasing the small dog. She then set the bowl down and stepped back to let Sound feast on kibble.

Glory walked into the living room hoping to get a few minutes on WriteNRead, her favorite app. She realized that Sound had finished eating and wanted to be let outside. Glory sighed and asked Sound, "You wanna go outside?"

As if the dog understands what she says, Sound runs to the door. She opened the door and let Sound out before retiring to the bed in the playroom.
