Chains of Darkness

"Myaaaaaa!!" the old woman cried. "Myahahahaha!!"

"Silence, churl!" Giorgio said angrily. "Since you are too much of a coward to accept the training willingly, it shall be.. thrust upon you."

Astra suddenly realized Berenice was standing behind her with a knife. She spun around to kick it out of her hand but it was an instant too late. The knife plunged into her stomach and Astra cried out in shock.

"Nyahahaha," Berenice laughed. "See ya around, Aqualarian bitch."

The knife was pulled out and Astra fell backward, everything suddenly going dark.

"Auditions are over for the day!" said Giorgio, emerging from the office. "All warrior princesses return to your holding quarters. "Chop chop, this hallway better be empty in 10 seconds!"

The girls, grumbling, started crowding away. Velus barked in confusion. Morgana was sitting down and shivering. Everyone seemed to have forgotten about them.

"What about ours?" he barked.

"Oh my," Morgana said. "How odd, what are we supposed to do now?"

"I've got a bad feeling about this," Velus said. "Astra may have been a spoiled brat, but she wouldnt just leave me here unless she had no choice. Something is definitely fishy about this place."

"Let's leave for now and think of a plan," Morgana said. "I dont want to think of what they'd do to us if they caught us by ourselves."
