Hey I know I updated my stories yesterday but I wanted to get as many Chapters done before I leave.

Ch 7

O'Hara had let the two ladies in and they were formally introduced.

" My Lord this is Miss Catherine Okano and Miss Elizabeth Braden." O'Hara said.

" Ladies this is Lord General Cornwallis." O'Hara said.

" Yes, O'Hara, welcome to Fort Carolina." Cornwallis said.

" Well if you don't remember you were found in an abandoned house in Charlestown and were found by his Majesty's soldiers." Cornwallis said.

Cat played along while O'Hara stood quietly behind Elizabeth as if they were a married couple. Cat thought O'Hara was some annoying jerk that was hitting on her best friend.

" Miss Okano, I suspect that you two want separate rooms?" Cornwallis asked.

" Well, alright." She said.

" My Lord what will we be doing here, do you want us to clean, cook-" Elizabeth was cut off by Cornwallis.

" Nonsense! I won't have any of it! You may stay here it's safer than any where else in the colonies." He said.

They stood to leave and were once again escorted out by O'Hara.

" Miss Braden I was wondering if you would like a tour of the grounds?" He asked Elizabeth.

She looked at Cat for approval. Cat rolled her eyes and nodded, Elizabeth took O'Hara's arm and walked happily outside.

" I can't believe she likes him." Cat said to herself.

She turned around and bumped into Tavington.

" Well, well, well. Is it not the Damn Colonial that threatened to teach me a lesson?" He sneered. But he wasn't alone this time another stockier man stood behind him as well a taller man.

" Well, maybe if you hadn't called me a 'Damn Colonial' you and I wouldn't be in this position." She said.

" Yes well you see, as much as you may be a Loyalist, you sure act like a Patriot." He said.

" Ha! Me a Patriot, I wouldn't be so smug sir. You may lose to them after all." She scoffed.

" Are you suggesting treason?" He threatened.

" No, but if you keep treating people this way, Karma is so gonna kick you in the ass." And with that she turned and walked away.

The two men behind him were speechless. Where did she learn to talk like that? She had just told off their commander and stumped him!

" Sir-" Bordon started.

" Don't say a word Bordon." He hissed and stormed after her.

He caught up with her in the middle of the hallway and turned her around sharply.

" You think you're so smart don't you." He snapped.

" I don't think I'm smart Colonel, I know so," She snapped back.

" Right let's see how smart you really are then." He couldn't very well hurt her he'd never here the end of it so he decided to go with knowledge.

" What's the hardest mathematical problem you can think of?" he asked.

" The Pythagorean theorem." She answered going easy on him. Math was always her best subject.

He frowned and continued.

" If you can answer my questions and beat my answers then I will never bother you again." He said.

" Fine by me." She smiled.

" What's the longest word you know?" she asked.

" Cornwallis?" He asked knowing he was going to get the wrong answer, he was going to lose.

" Try, pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicavolcanoconiosis!" She laughed.

" Well-" He was really upset right now. There was no ending to this nightmare of a woman with her never-ending knowledge.

" Are we done yet? I have to fix my hair," She said looking at her nails.

" Fine, you win." He said frustrated.

" Good day colonel." And she started to walk away.

" Wait. What's your name?" he asked.

" Funny you should ask. My friend was screaming it at us fifteen minutes ago." Cat said.

" Just answer the question." He said impatiently.

" Catherine." She replied as her figure moved down the hallway.

He nodded and left her alone for the rest of the day.

Okay that's probably going to be the last chapter for a while.
