Tala smirked and un chained her. He had done what he was ordered to. Now
Alex was weak and she felt used. Tala hauled her to her feet and pushed her
up the stairs and back onto the main floor.
" Well now are we going to be late ever again?" Kai was waiting at the top of the stairs when she was brought back up.
Alex was ashamed of herself that she couldn't do anything to stop Tala. He had raped her, and there was nothing she could do.
" I don't think she will be. 'Cuz she now knows what she gets if she is." Tala smirked and pushed Alex forward.
Alex fell to the ground she laid there, competly used and abused. Kai kicked her hard in the side. Alex didn't budge. She didn't move. She didn't make a sound. Kai kicked her again. Still her body stayed limp. This time Tala kicked her in the side and she moaned in pain. Alex jolted up and cluched her side. Kai smirked.
/{/ Tala is very strong, he will show Alex what that word means very soon. \}\ He thought glancing at Tala.
Tala picked up Alex and they escorted Alex past the court room. They brought her to the kitchens and talked to Oliver. Ray noticed that Alex was so weak and went to help her out when nobody else was looking.
" Alex what happened, are you alright?" He said feeling her forhead and then removing it when he felt sweat. " Did you get beaten or something?"
Alex couldn't tell him. " You should get back to work, your going to get yourself in trouble. And me as well. I'm in punishment right now for being late to the job." Her first words since the rape.
Ray frowned deeply. " Punishment? What did they do to you? You shouldn't look like this for being late. They did something to you and I promise you that I will find out, no matter how much trouble I get into." His promise was made out of anger not concern. And this worried Alex alot.
" Ray please leave. Your making things worse!" She whispered.
She caught the courner of Kai's eyes and she shock her head. She hadn't meant to do that, now she was going to get it and she had pulled Ray down with her.
" I'm not leaving until you tell me what they did to you." He whispered back.
Ray shivered when he caught Tala's eye and he looked back at Alex, waiting.
" I'm not telling you anything! I don't even know you all that well. For all I know, you could go running off and tell Kai. Getting me in more trouble." She snapped silently at him.
Ray was hurt. " I'm not some kind of spy if that's what your getting at."
Alex's temper grew. " For all I know, you could be. I learned to never trust anybody without getting to know more about them first."
Ray looked annoyed. " You know Mariah, she had to of told you something about me!"
Alex glared at him, her pride starting to creep back into her body. " She never stops talking about you! I'm starting to think your the only thing she talks about!"
Ray growled at her, still whispering. " Well isn't that enough! She probably told you a lot about me. What more do you need to know?"
" I need to get to know you personally. I'm not going to trust somebdoy because I know there child-hood friend and because she told about all the fun times you guys had." alex snapped at him.
" Well you'll have plently of time to to get to know him better because we just got you dish duty." Kai sneered.
Alex looked totally shocked and glared at him. Tala butted in.
" Looks like you got some of your pride back. You'll be losing it mighty fast if you don't get over there and start of those dishes."
Alex's heart dropped and she got a flashback about what had happened between Tala and herself. If she could help it, she would try to avoid that situation the best she could.
Alex snapped at him. " Dish duty? What do I look like a kitchen maid?"
Ray glared at her. " Hey you were looking at one a few seconds ago. Do you think I'm going to take that one lying down. I don't think so."
Alex tore her glare from Tala and rested it on Ray. " What's wrong with you? I thought you hated being a servant in the kitchens?"
Ray growled at her again. " Every single servant hates their jobs here! I'm no different. And by the looks of your condition, your not injoying it either!"
Alex' eyes flickered with fire. " Back off Kon. Your getting on my nerves."
" Good at least I know I'm getting to you." He said and glared at her.
Alex' temper rose to almost explotion. She was burning with anger. She had to unleash it.
She swong her fist and it came in contact with flesh. Ray looked stunned and gasped.
" What the hell Alex, what did you knock him for?" Ray yelled at her.
Alex smirked down at Tala, who was on the floor and he was holding his nose. Alex walked over to him and squated in front of him. She snickered and punched him in the face. Tala's head flopped back and she was pleased to see she had knocked him out.
" Pay backs a bitch ain't it?" She muttered in his ear and she stood up.
Tala's limp body went from motionless to restless. He tripped Alex and caused her to fall to the ground. He grabbed her hands roughly and held them behind her back. A thought flashed through her head. If she wanted to stay out of the rape situation, then she had to learn to control her temper. Too bad she never listens to the 'little voice inside in your head'.
She kicked her leg back and knocked him hard in the knee. He losened his grip giving Alex enough time to free her hands and back hand him. Tala lost his balance and fell backwards landing in a pile of dishes. They were all pots and pans made of metal so Alex let them fall. She caught one pan in her hands and she knocked Tala over the head with it. His body went limp.
Alex wasn't going to let him trick her again so she played it safe. She knocked him over the head once more before putting the pan back to where it came flying from.
" My kitchen! You little magot! Get out of my kitchen! NOW!" Oliver yelled at her.
Alex smirked. " Gladly. I think I killed him. It wouldn't be a disapointment though. The fucker deserved every last bruise I gace him." She winced when she said 'fucker'.
Kai growled at Oliver. " I think not! She stays, she will clean up this mess and then she can leave."
Oliver growled back. " Not if she is like that she won't be. Besides she is not my responsibility, she's yours."
Kai bit at him. " All the more reason to keep her here!"
" She leaves and that's final! Out of my kitchen you little fiend." Oliver bit at Alex.
Alex's temper over toke her again and she hit the handle of the pan she had placed on the counter. It spiraled and she caught it. She knocked Oliver in the side of the face. She was calm again but not 100%.
" I leave. And THAT'S final!" She snapped at him and stormed out of the room.
Kai followed her to make sure she didn't escape his sights. After oliver had recovered from Alex' hit he cried at Ray.
" Don't just stand there Kon! Clean up this mess!" And he left on his heels.
Ray growled under his breath. " What a little troublemaker."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kai grabbed her by the shoulder and spun her around. Alex glared at him but soon it faded. He was smiling at her, not the 'your in big trouble' smile but a bright one.
" Nice shot Moren. Couldn't have done it better myself." He congratulated her.
Alex was taken back then she smirked. " Like you couldn't have done it at all. Your too weak. tala's stronger then you and I knocked him out. Which reminds me, are you going to get him help or can i just leave him there to bleed?"
Kai snickered. " Somebody will notice him still there or he will come around evenutaly. We can leave him there. Come, we have much work to do."
Alex blinked at him and he pushed her forwards. She was confused. Kai was complementing her and leaving his 'partener' there to bleed? There was something wrong here! He had something planned out to do to her. Alex could feel it.
But no punishment of any kind came during the rest of the day. Alex did as she was told because Kai was being gentil with her. (I really mean gentil) Alex was doing her final job for the day before supper when Tala walked into the court room with a bag of ice on his head. The cloth had went from a baige to a limp red.
Kai turned to Alex and yelled at her. " Hurry up and finish the job then leave."
Alex continued her job and picked up the pace. Why would he change his mood so fast like that? Talk about a major case of mood-swings! The truth never even toke a hint in her mind.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
She ate only a few peices of half cooked chicken that night and she had a glass of water. She had earned a glare from Tala at the gaurds table and one from Ray who sat right in front of her. She frowned and soon everybody left the feast hall and went to sleep.
