...'Sweet Magnolia House'...
The dark oak sign hung deathly still against the yellow House that still looked paint new but upon a close look there were cracks in the paint, with large white French windows and doors and a balcony hanging over the front door and fake flowers and plants hanging from any place possible it never looked more out of place and like I just had been picked up from somewhere else.
As we were lead in side the house to grand seating room with sofa and chairs where ever was possible. Then a young woman walked in like she was on air.
"Our mistress will be with you soon please take a seat." with that all three of sat on the same sofa still unable to say a word each other only able to give each other side glances. What felt like hours but were probably minutes late an older woman walked in, but it was in possible to tell her age. "Hello children I am your new mistress you can call me Mag but in public you will refer to me as mistress. Know come introduce yourself."
With a few glances back and forth I set forward first with a small a slime and curtsy "My name is Carmen and I'm six years old" as I stepped back the girl next to me went the same as I did " My name is Victoria and I'm also six" and the boy went last "My name is Max and I'm seven years old" once we were back sat on the sofa she spoke once again.
"You children have all been sold to me and are now my property, here at Sweet Magnolia House you will be educated and raised to by spy, seductress and killers for these are now your roles. Now you will all head to your rooms and get clean up and head back down here for your introduction in to your new life."
with out a second to process or think we where wisk away up stairs to another room that looked like a communal area than had four door each having are name already place on them. When I enter in to my room there was small double bed, a chair, table, desk, chest of draws and a small bathroom to the side. It was almost as nice as my old room.
The bathroom was small and simple with a shower, sink and a toilet. when I look at my reflection in the mirror I barely could reconside myself I was caked head to in dirt my dress was ripped to shreds and my hair was red and brown from the dirt and blood of days past, after a some tears slipped from my eyes I got in to the shower and watched the mud and blood run of mean till the water ran clear once again. After that I stepped out the shower and rapped my self in a fluffy towel and sore a new out layed out on the bed a black and white dress with red ribbon.
Once dress I stepped out my room to see Max sat there waiting alone in a matching outfit to mine.
"Your Max right I'm"
"Carmen I know"
"Oh right where Victoria"
"She still getting read"
After a Nice but short interaction we sat in silence waiting for Victoria to come out when she did her hair was still a mess and her eye where red but she was clean and dress. That when it hit me and by the look of shock on Max face it hit him as well we did not care for feel any sort of sadness toward are situation I was more up set that I was covered in mud and dlood than that I was sold the shock and pain had fade and I no longer cared but it seem like she still did. With out a second thought both me and Max got up and pulled her in to our arms and in that moment it was like we became a family for we all know we only had each other from this point on.
