Lady Minx continued to star at the little girl staring back at her, and for a moment, I had no idea what to do.
"MY names not LE Faix, it's LUCINDE. and what's wrong wif my KIKI!!??" the child screamed at yelled at Minx. The child began to shake and cry. My body moved before my thoughts did. I hugged her around her shoulders to make the little one stop.
"You shouldn't do that Lady Lucinde, or Lady Kiki won't get any better." I said carefully choosing my words.
As I released Lucinde, she laid on Lady Kyxsha’s arm and murmured. I breathed out and walked over to the medical cabinet. I took out a few new antibacterial medicines and thing, but as I turned around, my eye caught Tanex standing in the medical wing. My eyes traced where he was looking, and I saw he was looking at Lady Xemmsur.
Tanex seemed to catch me staring at him and looked at me.
“Hello hentai guy,” he started. “Been a while since our curious meeting.”
“Tanex,” I started. “What are you doing here…..are you under orders to….”
“No one orders me to do anything,” Tanex answered sharply. All of my cells tingled at once.
“Then why,” I asked.
Tanex didn’t answer but returned his gaze to Xemmsur.
“Just getting a friend,” he answered.
I looked at Lady Minx, but she just returned the glance with a scared look.
Lady Xemmsur seemed to be waking up, and she almost tensed as she saw Tanex. He looked back at her and smiled a bit. I remained silent for a moment.
“Lady Xemmsur….do you know him?” I asked careful to keep my voice down.
Lady Xemmsur nodded.
“Tanex,” she started.
“Yep,” Tanex answered. “There are things at work Xemmsur and I’d like you to come with me to a meeting. All the apprentices are there as well as a few unexpected guests.”
“A-all of them?” Lady Xemmsur asked.
“Yes, well….RaXi and Marlex are out at this point in time, but there are still matters that must be brought up.”
Lady Xemmsur only nodded, and Tanex opened a portal.
“See?” he asked turning back to me. “Just retrieving a friend. Take care of your medical wing,” he finished as he started through the portal. Lady Xemmsur gave me a look. For a moment I wanted to protest, but the look Lady Xemmsur was giving me caused me to stop.
“If a lady wants to go then a lady wants to go,” I said trying to smile. “Go if you want.”
Lady Xemmsur smiled and nodded. With that, she followed after Tanex and the portal closed. There was a split second that I wanted to ask just what was going on, but in that moment, but I stopped. It wasn’t like I was getting an answer…
I turned back to Lady Minx. She was hugging Lady Lucinde and shaking a bit.
"That's it," I sighed. "I need answers......"
