Sonette was waiting for Ryan to come back. She was starting to get nervous. Lionel walks over and Sonette looks at him and Lionel smiles.
"Are you feeling okay?" Lionel asks.
"A little nervous." Sonette replies.
"I see." Lionel said. Then Sonette saw Lionel with a young hedgehog next to him. She has cobalt blue fur, short red hair, bright orange eyes and is wearing a dark green dress.
'Lilith.' Sonette thought. 'She has her father's eyes.' Sonette then thought and Ryan smiles.
"Lilith, you see that slave there." Ryan said, pointing at Sonette and Lilith nods. "That's your mother." Ryan tells her. Lilith looks at Sonette shock and Sonette sighs.
"M-mother." Lilith said with tears in her eyes and Sonette nods. Lilith runs over as Sonette drops to her knees and Lilith gives her a hug. Sonette breaks down in tears and Lilith smiles. "Mother, I knew my wish would come true." Lilith said and Sonette smiles. Sonette looks at Ryan as Lionel walks over and pays him.
"We have a lot to talk about so can you follow me." Lionel tells Ryan.
"Of course." Ryan said and the pair walks off. Lilith lets Sonette go who stands up and Lilith grabs Sonette's dress.
"Come, we have work to do." Sonette tells her and Lilith nods as the pair walks off. Sonette couldn't stop smiling. She has her daughter back. Amy then runs over and smiles. "Lady Amelia." Sonette said.
"Is this your daughter?" Amy asks.
"Yes." Sonette replies and Lilith looks at Amy shock.
"Lady Amelia." Lilith whispers.
"She's so cute." Amy said and Lilith tries to bury her face in Sonette's legs. Sonette smiles.
"Yeah, she is." Sonette said as Aleena walks over. "Lady Amelia." Sonette said.
"Sonette and this must be Lilith." Aleena said and Lilith sighs.
"Yes, this is her." Sonette said and Aleena smiles. Her granddaughter. Lilith looks at Aleena and bows. "She's a new slave so she is very nervous." Sonette explains.
"I see, well you better take care of her." Amy tells her.
"Yes my lady." Sonette said bowing.
"Go on, I'm sure you want to introduce Lilith to the other slaves." Amy said.
"Thank you." Sonette said and the pair walks off. Sonette met up with April, Rose, Ivy and Holly.
"Aw, who's the kid?" Ivy asks.
"This is Lilith. My daughter, my first born." Sonette replies and they look at her shock.
"Hi." Lilith whispers.
"Oh she's so cute, she has your fur." Rose said.
"She has her father's eyes." Sonette whispers.
"True." April said.
"Who cares, she's here now." Holly said as Fire walks over. Lilith grabs Sonette's legs and Sonette looks at Fire, then smiles.
"Hey Fire." Sonette greets.
"What's with the kid?" Fire asks.
"This is my daughter, Lilith." Sonette replies and Fire look sat her shock, but then smiles.
"Lilith, beautiful name." Fire said and Lilith smiles.
"Thanks." Lilith whispers.
"Come on, let's show her around." Rose said and Sonette smiles. They showed Lilith around, introducing her to all the slaves. Sonette was a little worried. They found Cira hanging washing so Sonette starts helping with Lilith holding her dress.
"I see you have a child clinging to you." Cira said, looking at Lilith who looks down.
"This is Lilith, my first born." Sonette introduces.
"Really, I see." Cira said smiling. "She's cute." Cira adds and Sonette smiles.
"Yeah, she is." Sonette said.
"Does she know she is a rich blood?" Cira asks.
"Rich blood?" Lilith asks confused.
"That's a no then." Cira said. "Go and explain it to the girl." Cira tells her and Sonette nods as they finished up. Sonette walks off with Lilith, finding a shady tree to sit under.
"What's a rich blood?" Lilith asks.
"Us." Sonette replies. "Lilith, I wasn't born into slavery like you were. I was taken. You remember Lady Aleena right?" Sonette tells her and Lilith nods. "Well that is my mother, your grandmother but as we are slaves, that doesn't matter. Being a rich blood means you come from a rich family. Your children won't be class as a rich blood because the blood line would be too tainted as they say. You, me, your siblings and Rose, we are the rich blood slaves. We cost more." Sonette explains.
"Siblings, I've met them, at the farm." Lilith said.
"Lilith, what are their names?" Sonette asks.
"Well there's Jules and Elizabeth, they are seven years old, then there's Jackson who is four years old and then there is Isis, she's only three years old." Lilith replies and Sonette smiles.
"He did take my names." Sonette whispers.
"What do you mean?" Lilith asks.
"As a slave mother, I don't get the right to name my children. It's the law but Mr Ryan, every time I gave birth he asked me for some names and those names are the ones I gave him." Sonette explains and Lilith smiles.
"So… you gave me the name Lilith, not Mr Ryan and Mr James." Lilith said and Sonette nods.
"I named you after another slave that helped me when I was in my darkest moments of life." Sonette explains.
"I see, I love my name now." Lilith said and Sonette smiles.
"Come on, there are the rest of the rich family you need to meet." Sonette tells her as she stands up and Lilith nods as she stands up. Then Shadow and Teagan walks over so Sonette bows.
"Lord Shadow." Sonette greets.
"Sonette, I heard your first born is here and I would like to meet her." Shadow said and Lilith walks next to Sonette.
"This is Lilith, my first born." Sonette introduces.
"Oh she's so cute." Teagan said.
"Lord Shadow." Lilith said bowing.
"She is." Shadow said and Sonette smiles.
"I still have to take her around to introduce her to the others." Sonette admits.
"I see." Shadow said.
"She's met Lady Amelia, Lord Lionel of course and Lady Aleena." Sonette said.
"So you haven't introduce her to your siblings or your father." Shadow said and Sonette sighs. "Go on." Shadow tells her.
"Thank you Lord Shadow." Sonette said walking off with Lilith. Then Sonia and Manic runs over and they pair stops.
"Lady Sonia, Lord Manic." Sonette greets as she bows and Lilith bows.
"So this is Lilith." Sonia said.
"Yes." Sonette said.
"Wow." Manic said.
"Hi." Lilith whispers and Sonia giggles.
"She reminds me a lot of you Sonette." Sonia admits and Sonette smiles. "Has father met her?" Sonia then asks.
"No." Sonette replies.
"Come on." Manic said and they head off. Lilith stayed close to Sonette. Lilith then grabs Sonette's hand and Sonette looks at her shock, but then smiles as she face forwards. They met up with Jules who was with Amadeus.
"Sonette." Jules greets.
"Lord Jules, Lord Amadeus." Sonette said bowing.
"And this… this must be Lilith." Jules said and Lilith bows.
"Mr Hedgehog." Lilith whispers and Jules smiles.
"She looks a lot like you Sonette." Amadeus said and Sonette looks at her. Lilith grabs Sonette's dress and Sonette smiles.
"Maybe a little." Sonette whispers. Then Tails runs over and Sonette bows. "Lord Tails." Sonette greets.
"Sonic told me the news." Tails said, then saw Lilith and smiles. "So this is Lilith." Tails said and Sonette nods. "She's cute." Tails said and Sonette smiles.
"Mother." Lilith whispers and Sonette looks at her worried.
"It's okay." Sonette tells her and Lilith nods. Amy then walks over and Sonette bows.
"Come with me Sonette." Amy tells her and Sonette nods as she follows her with Lilith who has a tight grip on Sonette's dress.
"Is everything okay my lady?" Sonette asks.
"Yes, I need some help. That's all." Amy replies and Sonette nods. Sonette stayed with Amy for the rest of the day, Amy got Sonette some more dresses and Lilith some clothes. Sonette made sure Amy had a hot bath after dinner. By night Sonette was lying down in bed with Lilith in front of her. They didn't have a room for her so they had to share a bed. Sonette felt tears in her eyes. She knew her children would end up like her, a slave but seeing it hurts her.
'Forgive me Lilith. You future is going to be hard.' Sonette thought as she closes her eyes.
"Mother." Lilith whispers. Sonette open her eyes and smiles as she saw Lilith eyes open.
"Yes." Sonette whispers.
"Is Mr James my father?" Lilith asks and Sonette sighs.
"Yes, he is." Sonette whispers.
"I see." Lilith said.
"Go to sleep." Sonette tells her and Lilith close her eyes. Sonette sighs as she close hers. Lilith was too young to know the truth, she has too much innocent. Something Sonette won't let her lose. She will protect her daughter as best she can.
