CHAPTER ELEVEN
"Her path is still unclear; she has yet to make the choices." A child sat on the floor looking up into a mirror with black swirls.
"Worry not for her child, my Zoe is as strong as her father was. She will make the correct choices. She will help slay the false god and free our people." A warm voice filled the room.
"What about her shield sister's?" The child asked looking down, there was a noise of understanding.
"Ah the lost ones, they will cut their own path and have their own choices to make, there are worthy though and shall soon enough receive the blessing of the shadows."
"But that means." The child looked at the Mirror in awe.
"Indeed child, Indeed."

Sighing I headed back to the cell that I called home; I wasn't in a hurry to get back. It was Kimber's night to cook which meant it was going to be a stew of a soup, which I wasn't too big a fan of.A light growl caught my attention, turning I saw a little pup it looked like a baby hound, smiling I kneeled down and held out my hand.
"Hey." I called out lightly and got a soft purr as the little hound ran up to me and rubbed its head in my hand.
"What are you doing out here?" I asked softly scratching behind its ear there was a louder purr and I looked up seeing what I gathered was this little cups mom. Looking at her she purred then laid down a few feet away. Her head shot up though moments later standing and turning, she started to turn a red color and a sigh of aggression. Looking around I saw a split in the wall and headed that way. Lightly calling out to the hounds the cup joined me first before the mother back up guarding the front.
"Where are those things, the warden is going to be pissed we lost her pets." One of them growled out.
"No she's going to be pissed you lost her gifts to her husband." The other one shot out annoyed.
"I don't know why shea bothering he said he was just going to sell them to the highest bidder." I watched as they walked out a view and sighed. Both looked at me and waited.
"Fine come on." I groaned out and headed back to the cell the two hounds in tow. It took a little long then usual to get back to the cell and when I did Kimber shot me an odd look then blinked at the two hounds following me.
"Um Zoe you know they eat people right?" Kimber questioned seeming unfazed. Reaching down I patted the mother on the head before walking over to my bed. Both jumped up the bed, the puppy settling in my pillow and the mother not to far off.
"People here eat people so as long as they don't eat us." I shrugged as Kimber just shook her head.
"Kyra is going to tell Leo." Kimber suddenly started sitting on her bed and shaking her head. Before looking towards the exit of the cell.
"They have been gone awhile." Walking over I sat down next to her and nodded.
"We have to let her take charge of her life. I don't want to interrupt." I admitted, we had been on the run because of me, and I choose where we went how long we stayed, and guilt was slowly eating me away. Kimber nodded before smiling at the two hounds.
"You know there gunna find out." Kimber warned, I smiled a bit and nodded. Kimber raised an eyebrow.
"There gunna try and bring you in for it." Kimber added to her warning and I smiled.
"I'm counting on it, looks like we have other issues to deal with first." I trled off as Leo came into sight with the left side of his face torn up.
"The bellowers." He mumbled before falling.
