Vex

Chapter 8

Sorry in advance about terrible translation between English and Polish
----------------------------------------------

Vex's POV
We were walking for what seemed like eternity. When finally Spark stopped in his tracks, swivelled around almost as gracefully as a ballerina would and said "Vex, what would you like to do first? Would you like to shop for clothes or get a make over, that is before we go to the tattooist."
"Uhhh could we go to get some new clothes first then get a make over?" I replied unsure if it were a trick question.
And so off we went to buy alsorts of clothes most were black or dark red, we also got a few beige and white dresses and t'shirts.
"You look amazing!"
"Thanks Spark!" I replied then out of nowhere a little boy came running up to me, he was crying.
"Hey, what's the matter?" I asked he seemed not to hear me
"I know him!" Spark exclaimed "Wait! Rodney! Where's Leopold!"
"Ja... Ja... Leo zniknął..." (L...L...Leo is gone) the little boy cried as he kept running just before he ran into someone...
...someone I knew "Oh my... Sp..Spark! That's Master Machiavelli!"
"What are you doing here chimney boy! Get back to work!" Machiavelli screamed, then, all of a sudden he noticed me. I couldn't tell if he recognised me but I knew he liked the look of me in a way I certainly did not like. "Hello young lady. What are you doing alone out here..."
"I'm not alone!" I interrupted
"...It's dangerous to be out at noon" he said as Spark came back and took me by the arm, "She is not alone, she is not free and she is certainly out of YOUR reach!" Spark screeched through his teeth. He was not happy though neither was Machiavelli. "Hey Rodney, come with us."
"Oh... Dobrze!" (Oh...Okay!) He said really happily as if he had just made a new friend. And so with that Spark paid and we all left. Once I had been tattooed, I dyed my hair dark red with black tips we bought some black contacts with vision correctors built in and a heap of black, dark red and white make up Spark also had me tested for any abnormalities, extra powers or diseases. I was vaccinated, because being a serf you never get any medical attention even if your dying from it.
We also got Rodney checked up because he was severely scraped up.
"May I ask, who is Leopold?"
"Mój smok" answered Rodney
"I'll translate!" Sighed Spark "Rodney said 'my dragon '. Rodney understands English but he struggles to speak it, he does know some though."
"Kim jesteś?" Rodney asked
"Who are you?" Spark translated as Rodney's face was covered by a huge cheeky grin.
"Vex. Nazywam się vex." I answered slowly, I knew little polish but I could say enough to get by.
"Say Polish?" Returned Rodney in his strong polish accent and faulty English. Spark accidentally  let out a small giggle and said "Chodźmy, możemy porozmawiać po drodze. Oh and by the way he was asking if you spoke Polish before." (Let's go, we can talk on the way) I was sure that Rodney was going to break his jaw, the smile on his face was ear to ear and very cute (cuter than the cutest baby animal you have EVER seen)
We walked on and on and on. It seemed like we would never stop walking untill suddenly Rodney said that he was getting worried about Leopold, his dragon.
"We'll find her, Leopold won't have gone far." That was when a small red ball of scales and flames came around the corner. "Talk about timing!"
