Trash disposal 2

After many hours of scouting I decided to head back before it got dark.

A while later I jumped back down into an alley when I was suddenly grabbed.

"What is a cute girl like you doing here~" came a mature sounding woman's voice.

"Let go" I threatened.

"Oh~, looks like we've got a fighter but worry not you'll fit in just fine~" she said while running her tongue up the side of my face.

Using all my strength I pulled free of her grasp before grabbing one of the many knives to throw at her.

Before I even realized what happened she was behind me again. I turned as fast as I could only to have my back slammed against the wall.

"Why don't you calm down and we can have a chat."

If I had to describe her then she would be a beauty, with her creamy white skin, black hair, plump red lips, over her left eye was was an eyepatch that added an air of seriousness, her right eye was a bit strange but I couldn't quite make it out as I had ducked under her. Using all my strength I pushed off the wall; quickly making my way out into the streets.

I was about half way back to the mansion before realizing that I hadn't gotten anything for Shar.

It wasn't long before I found an expensive looking jewelry store. I rushed inside and went to the counter immediately.

"I'd like to commission a ring" I half shouted.

"Oh~, then please follow me and we can discuss what you'd like made" said the man standing behind the counter.

He walked to another man dressed identically and who I assumed was another employee. Soon after he came back and to lead me to a small room not far away. As I peeked behind me I saw the other man take his place behind the counter with the same smile as the one next to me.

'They're almost like twins. Scary thing professionals are. Note to self don't mess with people that have that kind of smile' I thought to myself.

Contrary to their facial expressions the air they gave off obviously told that they didn't want to be there. I had even noticed a couple of the few shoppers completely avoid them unless needed.

When we entered the room I instantly spotted a table with a pair of simple chair; one on each side.

The man swiftly walked past me and pulled out a chair. He motioned me to sit and I complied. He gently pushed me in before seating himself on the other side.

"So what's something like you doing here?"

My guard shot through the roof as I stared him down.

"Now-now there is no need to be so hostile over such a simple question."

"May I ask how old you are" I say while continuing to give him a death stare.

The words seemed to catch him off guard but still he answered, "16, why?"

"Because you look like some cunning old fox."

The words once again seemed to catch him off guard and once again he answered, "I'm hurt that you'd think of me that way."

"Is your father the same way? They do say the apple doesn't fall far from the tree."

"Hmm~, a bit but if it came to a battle of trickery I'd say that the winner would be me."

"Don't underestimate old men they are usually only second to the ladies. Especially those in positions of power."

"Oh~, how'd you know that I was from a powerful family?"

"The air around screams, 'give me the respect I deserve or die" I say while trying my best to imitate him.

"Pffft ahahahahaha" he continued to laugh for a while before saying, "Phew that was the best laugh I've had in a while. So let's play a game."

"I'm listening."

"If you can guess who I am then I'll pay for your ring" he said while putting his hand out.

"What are the rules."

"You get three guesses as to who I am. If you win then I pay for your ring and if you lose then you answer my question, deal?"

I sat there for a while weighing my options before finally agreeing, "deal."

"Not going to shake my hand?"

"Not with someone like you. Now let's get a move on."

"Fine with me."

"I doubt you're a merchants son as your movements are to refined. The air is much stronger than any low ranking nobility so you are either from a counts family or above. But I highly doubt that so a marquees?"

"I'm sorry to inform you that is incorrect."

"True you are a bit young to fully own a position of power so maybe a duke's son?"

"Also incorrect, last chance~."

"Then you're a prince."

Note: mwuhahahahahaha cliffhangers for days. Also this is a few minutes late as I forgot I had to write the note yay. Also this was completely useless I don't know why I wrote it as I don't really important to announce.

Well, thanks for reading and have a good day.
