Once I let Bill go he ran off with his little friends. It was quite amusing there faces so scared. I looked at my blade.
I walked inside and threw myself on my bed. I slept peacefully but I had a sudden dream. I could see my mother cover in blood laughing pointing. She got closer and closer. She becoming louder and more blood. When she got close where I could only see her face she spoke in a soft voice.
"Hail Mammon"
I woke up in sweat feeling restless. I stood up looking around me for any sign of something weird. There was nothing. I got dressed slowly thinking of the dream over and over again. I went down stairs to got bread and I began to eat it. It was soft and warm like usual. Suddenly, I heard a knock at my door. I went to the door to see three soldiers standing there.
"Do you need something?", I asked still eating my bread.
" Captain Ren would like to see you", one said.
"Fine I'll be out in a second", I said closing the door.
They wore red uniforms and red hats. Captain Ren and Captain North had the same hat so I guess they had the same ranking. I grabbed my knife and gun and went outside.
The soldiers and I began to walk through the town. I took my medicine on the way there and my back still in pain but it was much better today. We finally got to the building! I walked in Captain Ren's office to see Bill so I tried to walk out. But, the soldiers blocked to way.
"Anora stay", Captain Ren said.
" Why? I don't want to be here", I complained.
"I heard you put a knife to Bill's neck. Is that true?", he asked.
I looked at Bill straight in the eyes and tried to attack him but they held me back.
" I'll take that as a yes", he sighed.
"Bill explain what happened", he said.
" Well I was going to apologize to Anora but she just started to attack me for no reason", he said a pitiful voice.
"Anora explain your side", he said.
" Well he was making noise outside my house so I went out to ask him to stop. And so he started talking about how I lost in the match. So he tried to hit me and so I put a knife to his neck", I said with a serious face and voice.
"Well either I believe a man or a woman", he said point at both of us.
" Just because I am a woman does not mean anything", I said strongly.
"Yes it does. Women are liars!", he said just as strong.
" Men are lie the most", I said thinking back to Suryan.
"Well I will think about the problem and I need to talk to Anora privately. So please leave Bill", Captain Ren said.
Bill walked out finally!
" Anora we run things differently here. You can't just threaten them like that if they do something wrong", he said looking at me in the eyes.
I looked away and said, "things weren't like that in Angelpost too. But, I got to do what I got to even if y'all don't like it".
He thought for a second and nodded his head.
" I believe you but I don't want to see something I like that again ", he said.
" No promises ", I said looking at him.
" Well we are gonna go to the capital for some businesses and we need you to come", he said smiling.
"Why?", I asked.
"You are of course the savior and your very intelligent. Your a quick thinker. We need that", he said, " But you will get backlash for being a woman. Will you still go?"
"Yes when?", I asked giving a tiny smile.
" In a couple of days so be ready.", he said.
"Of course"
