"Argggggghhhhh!" Valerian screamed.

Acalia giggled.

"So why are we going to the castle?"

"None of your damn business?" Valerian replied gruffly.

"Is it because of the boy that just ran through this forest hours ago?"

"Okay, if you know already....why are you asking?"

Acalia ignored her and looked down at the pup. She then looks at Valerian. "Isn't he cute?"

"No." Valerian simply replied.

In fact, he seems to look like decent food to me. I'm starving!

Acalia then looked around in boredom. "What should we do in the meantime? I want to play a game?"

"Shut up and keep walking!" Valerian demanded.

Ugh, worst day ever!
