“What happened?” Rima asked Penn.
“And where is our golden boy?” Stanley added.
“Thankfully not here yet before I am tempted to kill him.” Penn stated as she sank into the chair beside Rima's own and rubbed her brows. It was too early for her to be stressed. Imagine going to find golden boy only to reach the records room to discover that he had harassed the person there into showing him the records then he had left. He was lucky that Penn did not up with him there because if she had, maybe these people would not be here, they would be trying to separate the fight that would have happened between Penn

“The group is approaching.” Stanley whispers to Curtis who was sent to accompany him since he was the best choice as the man had gotten on both Rima and Penn nerves already. “Send the signal.”Curtis looked at the flare in his hand and then looked back at Stanley and the look at the group of soldiers who were coming. “Is there no other way than to kill them all?” Curtis asked instead as Stanley's head whipped around from watching the people to staring wide mouthed at Curtis for his words.“Honestly? You really want to have this discussion here when it has already been finalized and we are supposed to start doing what we are told? What is wrong with you?” Stanley questions.“Better late than never right?” Curtis laughed humorlessly, he looked at Stanley’s face who was glaring at him with a dark intent on his face, Curtis flinched back at the look.&ldquo

“Take care of yourself.” Vallas waved as Penn and the rest left on the horses they had arrived on. They also left some weapons behind which Vallas was happy about but that was just a tiny reason for his happiness that day, he was going to the resistance meeting today after he had stormed out of the last one because of their decision, this time he was going to rub it in their faces about their choice then beat Denzel black and blue for lying to him amongst other things and that was something he was very much looking forward to. He had wanted to do that to the man for a while now because the man had stepped on him more times than he could remember, even this Curtis of a person was still used by Denzel to step on him, then the bastard had to open his mouth and mention that Vallas progeny had to start from the ground up meanwhile his started from the same position that Penn had taken a year to achieve. Those words made Vallas so angry he was seeing the world through re

“You have?” Vallas's eyes widened. It has been long since he was surprised, he honestly thought Master Rodas will not be able to see the father of Penn. He did not know anybody who could hide his trail as good as the supposed father and based on the intelligence of his daughter, he had already given up hope that the real identity of Penn family would never be found, even by a great trackman.“Yes sire.” Master Rodas bowed.“Good, come in and tell me everything.” Vallas ordered then they both went into his quarters and the small room besides his bedroom where they could sit, after settling into the chairs Vallas turned fully to master Rodas who was still rubbing out the stiffness from his muscles as he did not even go to refresh or rest first since he found out instead he started his homewards journey.“His name is Basil.” Rodas started as horror dawned on Vallas's face at the name. &

Basil was tired as he headed home from his farm, he and his wife might have good crops and goods now since Dinos' attention had turned from them but they would prefer having nothing to eat if it means that their daughter was to remain with them. When Penelope had first gone missing, they had done everything they could to search for her but Basil sighed, he wished he had knew better while she was younger so he would not have taught her how to hide her tracks but the girl was good, she took after him in most aspects so strongly that he forgot she was not a boy and raised her like one and now, he keeps hoping and praying that his teachings might be enough to save her and help her survive wherever she was.Basil stopped his donkey as he readied himself for fighting as the pathway ahead of him rustled with movement. “You have until the countdown of ten before I attack, I will not be responsible for the state you see yourself after I am done with you.” Basil

Penn sighed as Curtis rushed into the cellar for another resistance meeting, this one was for a few he was lucky to be included in it and which he still manages to be late for even though there was no excuse to pardon his lateness.“You are late.” Rima stated.“I am sorry, I am trying to adjust.” Curtis returned, pleading by joining his two palms together. “I know that it has been more than a week but I am still finding it difficult to adjust to the resistance timetable.”“I wish you could adjust it as quickly as you adjusted your character.” Stanley mummers as Curtis smiled consciously in a sheepish way. What everybody in the room did not know was that he sneaked out of the camp last night to report to the queen who sent someone to the town so that Curtis will have someone close by to report to in case of any instant changes because he had discovered that Penn was the kind of person who always ch

The capital was alive at night and the resistance was just as alive and active as the capital was. While the capital was streaming with festivities and laughing children playing on the streets and eating candies, Penn looked around from her perch in the Prime Minister’s house, these children had everything handed to them in their lives, they were happy because they have not witness the horrors which belong to the real world yet, the horrors which their parents created and in turn will teach them to create when they get older. Penn was not happy with those thoughts because they were true.“So here is where you are hiding.” Rima’s voice announced her presence before the door slammed shut.Penn looked down where she was clearly visible to those who were celebrating in the streets then raised an eyebrow at Rima. “You and I have different definitions of hiding.” Penn muttered drily as Rima approached him rolling her eyes at Pe

Penn's face was fixed in an impassive mask and he followed Curtis to where Cain was waiting for her, her heart was beating loudly in her chest as she was thankful that she wore her usual free clothing and that there was no injury on her because of yesterday’s alterations.“Why is the Prime minister here?” Penn wondered out loud while Curtis snorted.“Maybe to gloat or prove to us that he has found us out when he has not even had the slightest idea about what is really going on.” Curtis responded as Penn's mind came down a little bit.Resistance could cover their tracks with something closed to perfection, something which she had taught to them, she was certain that they took care of leaving any incriminate evidence behind, Curtis must have been right, Cain came here to gloat.And Penn was not in the mood to listen to that gloating.“Curtis, do me a favor. When you drop me off with Cain, I

“You are late.” The maid said to Curtis as Curtis gritted his teeth in anger. Maids ought not to talk to him like that but this was no ordinary maid, she was the queen special maid and spy and Curtis even sometimes think that she was more loved to the queen than her own daughter and this maid was just as cruel of the queen and was also wrapped in a pretty package too.“I had to get away after I was sure that they were drunk from celebrating. If they were not I would not have been able to leave.” Curtis returns as the maid glared at him.“The queen is upset with you, why did you not tell her that The Prime minister home was going to be attacked. She gave him many priceless things that was destroyed in that little farce the resistance put up, need I remind you what exactly is still keeping you alive.” The maid's nose was raised as she said her last piece as snottily as possible while Curtis fists clenched.

Penn tried to run but there was no way she could escape the grasp of twenty men, she was caught within a minute. “Let me go.” She struggled against their hold as she was dragged back to Cain who had not moved from his spot when she had tried to run, fully trusting in his men's capability in bringing her back. “My father will hear of this.” “And how will he, when the person who should tell him will be dead?” Cain said as Penn felt a chill in her spine at his words. Cain had just confirmed that he was going to kill her and there was nothing she could do about it at all. “My father will know that it is you.” Penn bravely said but her voice betrayed her when it came out shaky, displaying her fear for all present to see. Cain leans to her face. “He is going to need something called proof to be able to do anything. You see, unlike that incident of two years ago, this time I will be smarter so that no one can witness this happening. Let us go.” Cain said

Penn watched the carriages stop as soon as he came down from his own carriage with Rima still inside and wondered if Vallas had visitors which she was not warned about?She had just came back with Rima for a trip in town, for a few days they have been here with Vallas as Something had gotten the resistance leaders so worked up that they were requesting for their heirs to be close to them.Penn sighed, someone would think that since Penn was at home that means that she would at least have an idea about what was going on but when she had asked Vallas, he shrugged and informed her that he does not know anything about what was happening.And when she asked him why he had called her home, the crazy man just replied that he did not want his heir to be the only one remaining especially when they have drawn the others back.Penn admit that Vallas's heart was in the right place but most time she felt like she would strangle Vallas.

“Your majesty, I have the perfect idea for what you want to happen.” Cain said two days later in the king's study.The king stared at Cain in surprise, he had not seen Cain this excited since he decided to start punishing the resistance. “I am not sure that I will like this idea.” The king responded.Reflected on Cain's face was the confusion which Cain felt as he did not understand what the reaction of the king. He did not plan for the king to shut him down even before hearing what he had in his mind. “My King, You did not even listen to what I have to say.”“I know.” The king sighed as he dropped the reports he was perusing. “I just hope that it will not waste my time.”“Of course not your majesty sire, I will be very brief with my explanation.” Cain hurried out and when the King gave his nod of approval, Cain started. “You wanted the children o

The crowd was somber, most of the nobles who attended the burial of Denzel attended with the knowledge of why he died, some more than the others.*He angered the resistance so he was killed, His son was discovered as a member of the resistance so they shut him up, he was killed because his son was a traitor…*Those were few of the talks that were flying in the air at that time. The time were Denzel was being laid in the ground and that made the king teeth to grit in anger at the blatant disrespect shown to the noble who died and his living nobles who could not wait for them to be out of the hearing range of the young ones which Denzel left behind before running their mouth.The only persons who were observing the right curtsey was Vallas and his son Penn. The king watched as Vallas placed a comforting hand on Penn's arm and then led him off.“Father.” Chandler called to his father who turned around to con

Penn felt something akin to pity as she watched Denzel stumbling back as if him shifting away from Vallas would somehow make the news unreal and change the fact that Curtis was dead.“No, you are lying. Is this some sick joke you and him are playing to make me lose my cool?” Denzel demanded but Penn could see the pale pallor that Denzel skin seem to have taken.“Not everything is about you Denzel, Your son was a traitor, this is about his death which was caused by his actions and decisions not yours.” Vallas stated as Penn paused.“Of course, he was your son.” Penn realized.“Stop referring to him like he is no more.” Denzel snapped at Penn who shifted back. “Now enough of this game you are playing and tell me where my son is.”“He is dead Denzel.” Penn stated calmly, trying to add feelings into delivering the news. “He was a traitor

Cain had never felt any intense hate for anybody as much as he felt for this brat in front of him. Even what he felt for Vallas was like a tiny flame compare to the inferno he was feeling for this being called Penn.“Are you sure you want to go there?” Cain asked Penn not caring for the audience they were having which was the king and his family.“You brought this upon yourself and let me inform you, my father will hear about this.” Penn threatened.“Is it just me or this whole scene turning into something that is just wasting our time?” The queen asked the king who nodded.“Cain you know better than to bring your personal vendetta here.” The king said firmly as Cain looked around unsure of how the table turned so quickly.“But…” Cain tried to convince the king but Chandler's voice was the one to cut him short this time.“But no

“Did the Prince give you a blow to the head that I somehow did not see?” Stanley asked Penn who rolled her eyes.“I am serious, those who run will be the first to be captured and taken in for questioning. Dispose all your weapons here and let’s go trade the horses for a wagon then rent a night at the inn and after that, we go out and mingle with other in the crowd, maybe grab a wench or two per person and have fun. After all, the reason we are here is because Lord Vallas decided to visit our home and we need to release some steam right?”They looked surprised at the easy way which Penn solved the problem until Stanley clapped his arms together. “Alright, let us start, time currently is of the essence.” He started giving instructions to others about what they should do while Penn started undressing. “Penn is everything alright?” Stanley asked looking at Penn weirdly.“Of course, it woul

Curtis realized too late what the queen might have wanted, the woman replaced her husband with her son, and she would not have done that if she wanted to son to be alive. With that thought, Curtis lunged forward, hoping to sink the knife into the Prince's chest but the Prince disarmed him within a flash.“Thank you for the weapon. Needed it.” Chandler smiled at Curtis who backed away from the Prince in shock.“That is one of the most foolish you have ever done.” Penn growled at Curtis making her voice deeper so that the Prince will not realize that it was her and still she saw the way the Prince's body jerked at her voice like he was recognized who was talking. It was a good thing that Penn tied her head and covered half of her face just like the rest of the resistance.“Thank you for believing in my ability, it is nice when your enemies know what you are capable of.” Chandler grinned towards the direction of

“I think you need to start from the start.” The queen said with her chest pounding. The king could not die, not yet. She still needed to kill the crown prince and make Lance the crown Prince.This was all Cain fault, if he had killed the prince then she would not have felt anything, she would not have done anything other than to sit still and wait for this to happen but it cannot because she will be left with Nothing. The Crown Prince no longer listened to her anymore, not since he came back to realized how many people she had disposed of since his edict. He had refused to listen to her since then or even to be in the same room with her, claiming that the sight of her makes him sick and he was repulsed that she was his mother… that was what he said while he was in the king’s presence but the queen knew what Chandler was referring to.“The resistance are planning on attacking the king today and Curtis shared this
