| Chapter 25 |
| Leli's heart felt as if it were going to burst as she calmly walked down the dreary cement steps to her doom. Her mind rang over and over about how she could get out of this, but then she remembered she had to keep up the act of being a knight then she would be found out, and then they would have no chance of getting Flik's sword back and most importantly of all, Leli thought lifting her head high, Terran would never forgive her if she failed. "Okay, just keep your eyes low and you won't see a thing...they'll all wear shorts with shirts. I'll just keep my arms crossed..." With that so clearly in mind, Leli followed Miklotov off the stairs around a corner, and where she bumped into Miklotov. Leli blinked and quickly took two big steps backwards, "Sorry." "I don't think I caught your name." Miklotov asked. "Uh, just call me Lance." Leli quickly lied. "Lance. Fine, follow me, I will show you the bathing area." Leli eeped, but remembered her plan of keeping her head low, and followed Miklotov through the door. A whoosh of hot air hit her and the sounds of water, and men. "The changing room is just around the corner where you can hang your uniform," The blue knight said pointing to the left, then stopped and looked straight at Leli hard, "You don't have your bathing articles, do you?" Leli shook her head. "No, Sir." "Then you can use mine. Come, let's get changed." With that Miklotov walked off towards the changing room with a whimpering Leli following closely behind. |
