The day went by so fast, it's already getting dark. After the incident with Khaliana and the king yesterday, she made sure not to face the king in every possible way.
"Khaliana, it's time for dinner." Lily said to her.
She nods her head and they went to grab some food. They were savoring their dinner when she felt something strange in the air.
"Lily, can you feel it?" she asked worried.
"What?" she said munching her food.
Lily can't feel what I am feeling right now but it really gives me chills and it scared the hell out of me. She might be scared if I will tell her what I'm sensing but she has to know. We have to get ourselves ready.
"Something is coming and it's dangerous, I can feel it. Get yourself ready." She told her.
Khaliana stood up and gather her sword that she laid on the ground while Lily shove the food in her mouth and stood up as well.
They went to see if the soldiers were preparing but they didn't sense it all.
They were just eating and relaxing their butt on the ground.
"Prepare everything Lily, I must tell Captain Benedict about this." She said, she doesn't have a choice but to tell the captain about the upcoming danger so that the soldiers will be informed. She cannot yell at them and tell them that she sense something in the air, it will just make her hilarious.
Lily went back to their tent and she went to where captain Benedict was but the king was with him. They were talking about something.
What should I do?
The king is with him, can I face him now?
But sooner or later I shall face him, why not now?
She walked towards them bravely and bow her head when she faced them.
"I'm sorry for interrupting your conversation but may I speak with Captain Benedict in a moment?" she asked politely still with her head low.
"You're too brave for your own sake, you whore! Who are you to interrupt us!" the king said furiously.
"I apologize for my bravery Lieutenant but this is more important than what you thought." She said back still on her position.
"How dare you talk back to me like that, I told you already to call me by my position, but you still disrespect me by calling me Lieutenant. You will be punished by your actions winch!" he said irately.
"Soldiers!" he called them.
The soldiers came running upon his order.
"Lock her up anywhere or tie her tightly on a tree until she recognize her fault!" he said greeted.
The soldiers caught her hand and dragged her but before she could be out of their sight, she shouted her intentions to them.
"Something is coming and it is dangerous, can't you feel the air? It screams danger! I'm here to tell you those, your soldiers were relaxing without even knowing what's happening out there! It's coming and it's coming fast, if you will not order your men to get ready and pull their swords, this camp will not see the sun rise by tomorrow!" she shouted to them while she was dragged by the soldiers.
"Captain, I'm begging you, please trust me with this!" she shouted to captain Benedict until she was out of their sight.
She was tied tightly on a tree, she cannot even move her body. The soldiers made sure that she will not get out from there.
