-I don't know if I should call you fiend or beast are just straight out demon...

-To my defense can I first know what you are talking about ceci,,,i mean madam...

I said trying to make sense out of the situation at hand cecilia was obviously a bit mad at something maybe because I was gone for a few days leaving stella alone,but its not like I could help it ? Literally my life was on the line well not that I was about to say that,but the point here is I am not sure what she is trying to tell me...

Hearing my question cecilia widened her eyes slightly looking towards me appraisingly trying to find something in my look that she could call out,but wasn't able to making her even more frustrated even thought I didn't do anything !

-Stop playing innocent you know very well what you did ! Think about it if you don't understand then ?!

She said almost yelling even which made me even more confused why she was doing that her face was also pretty deeply flushed to the brim while she talked her green eyes showing intensity...considering her words I started to think about what she was talking about and thought how she could be mad at me...in the end the only conclusion I had from this was that it was somehow related to the girls in my house...ohh now I get it.

With a blank look at my face I turned towards the flushing cecilia and told her.

-I didn't seduce them I just helped them actually they needed work so I employed them...

I wasn't sure if I should tell her that they were actually former slaves I wasn't even sure if I should tell her about the adventure I got into for the last few days I was actually expecting steward to tell cecilia everything...if she knows it then it means its alright..

The moment I told her my excuse cecilia made a slight grumpy expression and said.

-Steward told me everything already no need to hide it I know these people were all former slaves and that you left for some kind of request or something,but what I know is that....why are they all woman !

Her question was a bit loud and the others probably heard it too since I could feel most of them not too far away from the kitchen door listening into our conversation talking to each other with worry in their voice christina seemed to be the most worried out of all of them trying to calm everyone,but being panicked herself the most.

-I am not really sure what to say since I never really had the biggest selection of gender while on my request and on the topic why do you even care ceci...I mean madam...

The reason I was calling cecilia by her title was because I thought that doing so would calm her down a little bit...which wasn't the case it seems.

-Stop calling me that dawn !

-yes mad...i mean cecilia

Hearing me talk cecilia sighed and face palmed she didn't look stressed,but made it look like she did.

-Of course i would care since stella lives in this place you know ! She is also very important to me and since you made that agreement with steward about the academy you could say that she is partially my sister as well so I am very considered and thought it was pretty indecent to have your sister live in a place full of woman and 1 male...on top of that they are all beautiful for some reason mind explaining me that ?

She didn't count leraje in did she forget maybe ? and on the topic yes they are all beautiful which I know,but come on,they were all beautiful I swear I didn't even see one ugly girl..

Its not like I could protest like this and everything I say will probably not reach her ears,should I just accept my fate it seems to be the most sensible thing and its not like cecilia is actually pretty angry she just seems to be put off which is understandable since I was gone for a few days and came back with a lot of woman starting to live with them under the same roof every person would understand that as fooling around,but cecilia also understood the circumstance I was in to make these things happen,but she still chose to call me on them,well its her way of saying that she was worried of me probably...

-Wait mr.dawn didn't do anything wrong ! He actually did all of this to help me so please don't scold him its me who is at fault !

The sound of a soft shivering voice could be heard as a girl entered the kitchen she had very long white hair going down her ankles and her statue was very petite fitting to a girl her age who was 4.5 feet tall slightly bigger then stella,but close enough.

Her looks were also very unique such as her big round golden eye that were the same as mine the smooth baby soft skin which was pure white and spotless making me surprised by her incredible change into a healthy 8 year old as I praised hestia in my mind...the only flaw in this picture was that she was wearing a makeshift eye patch made out bandages everything else seemed to be okay which I was glad about.

Seeing this mysterious girl suddenly appear before cecilia she quickly reassessed the situation and gave out her question.

-wha...who are you ?

-Ehh...I...I..I am...don't know...I don't have a name..

The white haired girl in responded her voice showing the amount of lost thoughts she was in trying to cope with the fact that she literally didn't know what her name was and now that I think about it she never game me her name in the first place previously I just believed that we were in a hurry so we didn't have a time for introductions,but now that I am hearing this I could see that wasn't really the case she just didn't have a name to be called she would have introduced herself or told who she was on our escape or in the circle room...this alone showed already how hard of a life she had been through not even having a name and just be killed "it" or "She" after all names were states of existence they were proof of things that had existed previously without those no one would know who you are or if you were ever real to begin with,they are points of your origins something people remember you by as you go through a day meeting other people...

I suddenly stood up from my seat feeling a bit dazed I walked towards the slightly lost girl who was trying to see if she had a name or not drawing straws out of nowhere and not getting anywhere was torturous she didn't even notice that I was stand in front of her and only noticed it when my shadow engulfed her as she looked at my tall statue staring into my golden eye the same as her...she was a bit desperate for answer right now answer that I couldn't give her immediately answers that I needed someone else to tell me...so for now how about we make up those "Answers" it wouldn't hurt anyone and they can stay temporary.

With those thoughts I slowly knelt down in front of her putting on a gentle smile on my lips and patting her silky white hair which was completely clean her appearance was also a bit too revealing since she was only wearing a white T-shirt which was actually my T-shirt too big for her looking like she was wearing a white baggy dress.

Seeing my expression and feeling the comfort that I was giving her the worry in the girls eye also started to go down she felt safe once again looking down still not sure about herself of who she was,but in the end was it really that important ?

-How about amy ?

-huhh ?

The white haired girl replied with a obvious question mark floating on her head she didn't know how to reply really.

-I am saying how about the name Amy ? it fits you a lot since you are going to stay with us you need a proper name so Amy how about ?

I wasn't really sure about the name,but clicked inside my head the name was also common and very pleasant to hear.Hearing my suggestion the white haired girl smiled suddenly nodding her head with small tears she quickly hugged me from the front embracing me and holding onto my neck.

-What is going on ? Dawn who is that girl ? why is she wearing only a T-shirt ?

Feeling slightly awkward I started explaining cecilia about my request and that this girl was the person who I was supposed to get she did ask about the person who requested me about this,but I didn't reply to it since I couldn't do so,seeing my quietness she immediately got grumpy again since I wasn't telling anything to her she told me once that she would someday crack me open and have all of my secrets in front of her even now she was on the front and had a lot of time to execute her ways to do so,but now she just concentrated on the little girl who was leaning on my chest she also took a glance towards the others who were hiding behind the door noticing them from the very beginning like I did,but with a more appraising way then my sense's she simply sighed showing that she had given up on the topic and sat down on the kitchen seat drinking her tea prepared by the girls..

-Ehm...miss...my my name is Amy its nice to meet you...

Amy said while making a small smile her language was partially broken sometimes showing that she didn't know all too many words,but had enough to communicate which was already impressive thinking about the place she had grown up in I wouldn't be even surprised if she didn't talk or anything like that.

-Ahh..yes my name is Cecilia greenwood its nice to meet you too amy..

Cecilia also made a smile and gave amy her hand for a handshake this particular action made amy confused as she didn't know what to do,but she followed her deduction and gave her right grabbing onto cecilias hand shaking it awkwardly it was a touching scene which cecilia also smiled upon as she stood up from her seat patting the little amy walking past her towards me with her eyes fixated at me.

-Follow,we need to talk..

I thought that we were already doing that,but looking at her current expression I could tell she wanted to say something else something that wasn't involving other spectators.

-Sure lets go I escort you to your dorm if you want..

-No,to the circle on the third floor is alright I only have a few words thats all...

She said refuting my offer which I accepted as we made our way out of the kitchen and as we did so I could hear the sound of stamping and panicked cries got left and right the girls weren't really the best spies...

Getting out of the kitchen you could see that everyone seemed to have gone into a different room,but then again there was still one person present in the corridor with her fiery red hair she stood next to the door leaning on it and blocking the way her expression was blank and looked bored and when she turned her head towards cecilia her eyes were immediately locking onto her eyes orange clashing green challenge each other which only lasted for a few seconds as both of them looked away at the same time...hestia also walked out of the way.

-She also works for you right ? like leraje how do you even get these people sometimes...

-They come to me not the other way around..

I said with a laughable grin on my face hestia could be weird like this sometimes.Hearing me say it like this cecilia made a appraising look on her face trying to see some kind of thought in my answer,but finding nothing in it very interesting as we made our way towards the third floor which was the magic room the roof where the circle was,

-Are you going to make more of these request in the future ?

I shook my head even thought she couldn't see it herself I knew that she saw that movement which followed my words.

-Not really I believe it was a one time thing and the requester is actually a person who is related to amy I will soon get answers and then I think its finished...

-I see...other then that I think you know about tomorrows celebration right ?

-Yeah the birthday party I am supposed to be your escort,but I don't have a large wardrobe for that 

-Hey I know and because of that you and I are going to go to the shopping mall remember what I asked you a few days ago ?

I thought for a little while and realized what she was talking about...it was the offer to go shopping with her she said that she knew a lot of good stores and the timing was also pretty good since we would have the party tomorrow night it would be give me time to purchase some things and also fix other things.

-Yeah I remember don't worry about it just call me if your ready to go since I don't really know the way around this city you have to become my escort...

The words were smooth and didn't feel wrong in my mouth,but when I voiced them they triggered something in cecilia's head as she suddenly stopped in her tracks muttering to herself.

-me...your escort

She was a bit flushed,but not too much shaking her head a bit and finally calming down...her act was confusing to me and on the way into the third floor she refused to talk to me and quickly left with a bright shine telling me that she would pick me up at 2 or 3 o'clock day light.

-So thats the girl you are supposed to protect ? she seems pretty strong not gonna lie,but also a bit stuck up...

I laughed for a bit hearing the familiar voice and turned around to meet a fiery woman standing next to the door arms crossed.

-I know another person actually who is the same how come I don't remember her name actually I swear it starts with a "H"

Hearing this Hestia flinched for a moment and started walking towards me trying to argue this point,but strangely the moment she took a step forward my vision disoriented all of a sudden my head also pounded for a bit and then...absolute black out.

The last few seconds I could hear hestia's yelling and desperate shout her voice cutting and her warm hands grabbing onto me until I finally couldn't feel them anymore.
