Chapter 2
"Heeee! Heee!", the sounds of horses neighing and the rough bumps on the road were the first thing that Serenity and Minalle had awoken to. With
the suns bright rays of light shinning in their eyes, before both girls could get a chance to lift their little bodies up there was an abrupt stop of the
carriage, causing both girls to spring forward into another group of children. One child in particular though did not take to kindly to this force of
impact and fiercely pushed Mina off her, causing Mina to fly right into Serenity. While dusting herself off as if the touch of Mina was disgusting to her,
"You know maybe you should watch where you land next time", she said with disgust clearly written on her face and venom dripping from every
word she had spoken. Before Serenity could get a chance to give this rude girl a piece of her mind the carriage doors were quickly swung opened as
rough callous hands made a grab for each child, quickly removing them from the carriage one by one.
One by one as each child stepped through, the rude girl that had pushed Mina off of her screamed in disgust. This gave Serenity a chance to quickly
get a good look at the rude girl. Serenity could see that this girl had red hair that looked like she washed her hair in blood, her skin was palely white
but her eyes, they were scariest of them all. Her eyes were the blackest Serenity had ever seen, so black that they could be the color of purple. Not
knowing that she was staring at the girl for so long she barely realized what the girl had asked the man, " Why are you putting these rough foul chain
like things on me, Do you know who I am, My name is Beryl Strognuf", she told the man that roughly pulled her through the carriage. As if he didn't
care, he roughly pushed the little girl now known as Beryl "As if I really care as to who you really are, slave", he said. Realizing what Beryl had
asked him, Serenity looked down to see what the rude girl was talking about. As she looked she could see that each child one by one were
contained with metal like shackles on their wrists and ankles. 'Slaves', she asked her self, 'What does he means by slaves'. When it came turns for
herself and Mina, the men roughly grabbed Mina and her, put the shackles on, and threw them separately in different piles.
Not knowing what was going on, but before she could get a chance to wonder, a man had quickly answered her questions, " This pile, is to be sold
slavery, and this pile is to be sold to the palace", he said while pointing to each pile that is to be sold to either category. While looking Serenity saw
that the pile he was pointing for slavery to be sold was the very pile that Mina was thrown into when they were taken off the carriage. As men
quickly listen to their master, they had begun to instruct the slavery crew to move. "Faster", one man yelled. When Mina stumbled and had cause the
group of children to slow down, the man grabbed Mina by her hair and roughly threw her to the ground and pulled out his whip.
Before he could get a chance to bring down the lash, Serenity ran over and quickly covered Mina up, ready to take the whipping for her dear
friend." You will not touch her", said a determined Serenity. "Move you insolent girl", he yelled ready to bring down the lash to gladly whip both girls.
Before he could fulfill his desires to cause both girls pain, a rough voice stopped the man, "STOP, ROLF"! The man turned around as Serenity and
Mina layed down with both their eyes tightly shut awaiting their punishments for defying this so-called man-master. "But, Sir", said the man now
known as Rolf. Rolf slowly brought down his whip and quickly saluted to the man that had stopped him from his happy thoughts. "Get up!", said the
man. As he tried to help, Serenity and Mina up, Serenity looked up to see it was the very man who had stumbled upon her and Mina's hiding place
in the bushes.
Seymour looked at both girls and could see fright on the blonde headed child and determination written on the silver-headed child. As he looked
closely, he remembered it was the two children that he had found in the bushes of the village that he and his men had destroyed that very morning.
Before he could finish his thoughts a voice, young but determination dripping from each word interrupted his thoughts, "We will not be separated, nor
will we be sold into such slavery", Serenity spoken. Seymour looked at the girl as if she was crazy and laughed as if the thought of her speaking in
authority would scare him. "Little girl I think you are in no position to be speaking to me like that", he said to the girl while looking at her. Serenity
stood her ground and kept her head held high and continued to stare at the man with hateful eyes.
Looking at the girl when she did not cower down when he spoke to her, he laughed, ' Such determination, in such a young body', Seymour thought.
Still laughing, "What is your name", he asked. Looking at the man as if he was crazy for asking her for her name she responded by saying "There is
of no need for you to know my name". Seymour's laugh stopped abruptly. Serenity watched as his face turned in to a scornful disdain look. He
harshly grabbed the girl up by her arms. "When I ask for a name I get a name, Now what is your name", he asked again with fierce in his voice this
time. Determination to scare quickly changed on Serenity's face, Mina quickly answered the man's question before her friend could get hurt.
"Serenity, sire, Serenity is her name". "Minalle", yelled Serenity at Mina for backing down into giving this man her name. Seymour put Serenity down
and looked at the little girl that had spoken. "Serenity is it, hmmm... and I take it that your name is Minalle", he said while putting his finger to the side
of his mouth as if in thought. As if he found something that sparked his brain, Seymour smiled and said "Well, those are very pretty names, pretty
names indeed", "So pretty I think those names are fit to work for the king at first hand, maybe you two could work as palace wash girls", he said, but
before Serenity and Mina could smile thinking that they were not going to be separated from each other they barely heard what Seymour had said
next, "And when your of age and your bodies mature into supple young women , you could be the king's very own concubines and maybe even for
me", with that said, Seymour ordered for Serenity and Mina to be removed from the ground to be quickly put onto another carriage.
With a few other girls following behind them all of them trying to figure out what in the world was a Concubine, looking behind them Serenity could
see that the blood red headed girl Beryl was also going to be joining them on their ride to become wash girls and years to come concubines.
"Concubines, what are concubines Seren", asked Mina to Serenity as they were being seated into the carriage. Before Serenity could turn and tell
her friend that she had no earthly idea what a concubine was, the red headed girl answered for her, "Don't you know anything you stupid retchulant
girl, a Concubine is dancer for the the king's nobles and the king himself", she said in disgust as if Mina stupid ness was disgusting to her. "Oh! Well
what's so wrong with dancing", Mina asked again. Before the red headed girl could answer her question the carriage had come to a stop and each
girl one by one was quickly being taken off of the carriage and being pushed to their now awaiting destiny.
