Demos' Palace ^
The ride there wasn't that long thanks to there technology. We came from what used to be Georgia which is now Crescent Moon Pack to Blood Moon Pack which is now Virginia. Since the New World Order the White House was taken over and turned into Demos' palace. A lot of things in America were changed like some of the statues in Washington were turn into the image of the new leaders. Although they share many similarities with our culture still our world has literally has been shaped into their image.
The car soon landed in front of the humongous palace. The door to the car was opened and Demos step out the car.
"Come." He commanded holding his hand out for me I took it. When I got out Demos put his arm around me tightly and walked me over to the palace front entrance. I saw staff standing outside the door with hands behind their backs and heads down. They stood there waiting for orders. We walked inside the palace and I was amazed at how the inside the was laid out. Once we were inside the foyer a lady quickly ran up to us and bowed her head.
"Master?" The lady said.
"Take Katharine up the room beside mine and find her some clothes for bed out of my room."
"Yes master." The woman said. "Follow me miss." I began to walk forward until my arm was grabbed by Demos. I turned to see him have a serious look on his face. He leaned down to my ear and whisper. "Try anything stupid and you will be punished. Now go." He released my arm and walked another direction. I rolled my eyes and followed the maid.
I was led up the stairs and down the hall until I final made it into my room. The room was beautiful. I think I could actually fill that shack I called home in this entire room.
"Here you are miss. I'll bring you your dinner in a little while." After she showed me to my room left, I guess to attend to her duties. After a moments of just standing there I decided to look around my new room. I walked over to one door and it turned out to be a beautiful bathroom.
I went to the next door and it turned out to be the closet but it was totally emptied. After that disappointment I began to walk around the room wondering what to do or what's going to happen to me? I wonder if my parents or brother are okay. Maybe if I get in Demos good grace I maybe able to find a way to get in touch with them.
I laid on the bed looking up at the ceiling wondering how my life went from a simple high school girl to this. I rolled over on my side until I saw something small reflecting off the light from the sunshine coming through the window. I sat up and grabbed the glass object. It was thin and rectangle shaped. When I picked it up my thumb touched the screen and it had different options on the button, such as service or television. I clicked television then I heard a sound come from the wall in front of the bed. The opened wide enough for a big glass like the remote but was bigger; now on the wall. A computerized female face came upon the screen.
"Guest of Alpha Prime Demos household, please submit your name." The female computer voice said.
"Uhm, Katherine."I said unsure.
"Hello, Miss Katherine, you requested television a few minutes ago. What would you like the watch. I recommend the news to see the latest story."
"Uhm, I guess the news then." I said then the TV showed the news.
"We are coming to you live right now that the terrorist human rights group has tried to attack the head Moon Council. The threat has now been eliminated by the guards.'" The woman said.
"Yes thank goodness the threat is gone for now. Rannah, I am in awe how these humans think they can rebel against us. After all the things we done for them; we gave them homes, foods, and jobs." The man said as the woman shook her head. "It is a crime shame, Tryant."
I'm not surprised by it people have been trying to rebel for the longest time. Ever since they moved the 'new world' in motion. I was still outrage about how they can treat us like that and think they helped us. How is living in poor conditions, starving to death and having back breaking jobs helpful? This only motivated me more to try and find and escape out of here. I just had enough of this.
"Computer, turn off, please." I said not want to hear anymore.
"Okay, Miss Katherine." She then turned herself off. I then decided that I will explore the palace since I had nothing better to do with my time.
I made my way to the door and stuck my head out of the doorway making sure the coast was clear. The hall was clear of anyone. With that I made my way out of the room and down the hall. Throughout my walk through the hall I opened up door that only led to more bedrooms. I walked passed the stairway when I noticed another set of stairs that led to a higher floor from where I am on.
I walked up the stairs and walked down the hall until I notice a set of double doors. Due to my curiosity I opened the door and walked into a nice looking office and library. There was a small stairwell that lead up more books and also a lounge area for reading. Then I notice the balcony doors across the room from the front of the desk. I walked over and opened thee balcony doors and stepped out on the balcony. The view was beautiful of the city lights. The sun had not rose yet due to it being early in the morning. It amazing all of this craziness happened or is still happening in one night.
I didn't realize how tired I was until I yawned a little with the fact of having no sleep. "You should get some sleep." I startled I turned to see Demos standing there with a t-shirt that hugged his thick muscles. He also wore some sweatpants which he had his hands in his pockets.
I just stood there awkward and nervous not saying a word. Demos rolled his eyes and grabbed my hand. "Where are we going?"
"To bed obviously." He said as he pulled my hand.
We eventually made it back to my room. Where in the middle of the floor was a cart and a covered dished sat on top of it. Also what look liked blue Kool-Aid in a glass.
"You should eat and then get some sleep. Once you are done with your food put the cart along with everything else in the hallway. Someone will get it." I nodded my head and we both just stared at each other awkwardly. He looked as if he conflicted with something judging by his facial expression.
Then he walked over to me slowly and pulled me into a hug and nuzzled my neck. He did this for a few more seconds then hesitantly let go. "Good night, my mate." Then walked out in a hurry.
Okay, that just happened. I shrugged my shoulders and walked over to the cart and pulled the lid off. My mouth immediately watered at the sight of food. The plate had smothered chicken, green beans, and a roll. I immediately started stuffing food in my mouth. I ate so fast I choked a little and picked up the drink. I almost gagged at the drink's taste. It tasted like apple juice and lemonade combine. It must be one of the drinks from their culture. I was definitely done with the drink.
After I had finished eating, I put the cart outside I guess for a maid to get it. I walked back in the room and found a set of clothes on the bed for me. I picked it up and it was a large t-shirt, no doubt Demos' and a pair of boxers. My eyes widen at this and I dropped the boxers.
"There's no way I am wearing this." I said out loud. I'm just going to go without them. I went into the bathroom and took a shower. the water felt so good on my skin. It's been awhile since I had a clean and warm shower. All I had was dirty once in a while baths that were cold. After about thirty minutes in the shower, I got out and dried off. I put on the big t-shirt and, as gross as it may sound, I put my underwear back on. I refuse to wear his underwear. Why would he think I want to do that?
I got in the bed and laid my head down and almost instantly went to sleep.
