421 Girl Talk...

Saavi arrived at her door only to realize that Mikaela wasn't there, changing directions she went towards Mika's room.

Standing in the doorway, Saavi watched as Mika moved about her room clean and put away items from her luggage.

"Mika…" She ran in giving her friend a big hug.

"Aww...Saavi, I missed you too." They stood hugging for while before Saavi remembered Ailwin.

"Is Prince Ailwin here...he's not with you?"

"No, we split up. He has some stuff to take care of before the solstice banquet."

"En." Saavi looked around at the luggage she bought back, and notice some of it looks like it's came from home.

"Did you go back to the Amara clan?"

"En...A lot of things happened that I need to fill you in on."

"Okay, I'm listening." Saavi bent down to grab clothes from Mika's bag to help put it away.

"Hold on one minute." Closing the door and placing a concealment charm around the room, Mika wanted to make sure no one would over hear their conversation. From Saavi's words, she too had notice the royal guards posted in areas around the school.

"Okay, let me start from the beginning where we arrived at Rowood City…" Retelling the events since they separated took a long time.

When she got to the point where they found out the King was doing experiments on the citizens, Saavi couldn't believe it. It wasn't until Mika showed her the books she had taken from the basement of the Bizana clan household that Saavi nearly threw up in shock and disgust.

"This...this...how…"

"Saavi, it's best not to look through the books any further, they will only upset you more." Mika took the books from Saavi's cold hands. The horror in these books made Saavi's skin look pale and clammy.

"Should I continue…?"

Mika was afraid the Saavi wouldn't be able to handle the rest of the story.

"No...no, I'm listening. Please, continue."

"Okay…"

She proceeded to tell Saavi about their escape then the battle they had with the royal guards and how she now has two warships.

"Mikaela, you can't keep the two warships."

"What! Why not?"

"What are you going to do with two warships, you don't even have an army."

"Oh, I have an army...and it's the greatest army around." People need to stop looking down on my nanos. They can do anything the Shadow Wolves can do and then some, Mikaela forgot to realize she hasn't really told anyone about her creations.

"Mikaela…"

"Ah don't fret, I'm letting the Shadow Wolves borrow one." She smiled, making Saavi shake her head.

"Anyways, back to my story…" Continuing on, she explained what happened when Ailwin met with the Amara clan, which turned Saavi from a icicle into a raging volcano.

"How can the they do such a revolting thing!?" Standing up, Saavi began pacing around the room, yelling out degrading slurs toward Sienna and her mother.

"Saavi...calm down, I handled it already." Mika laughed seeing her friend's huffed up cheeks and redden face.

"Still Mika, your sisters….your sisters are all-"

"Sluts. Yes, I know." Saavi finally started to calm down after seeing Mika's composed face.

"...Mika?"

"Hmm?"

"Aren't you worried that Sienna and Ailwin might have...you know...and she might be pregnant with his…"

"No."

"Your not...?"

"No, because like I told you. I handled it already." There was no way she was going to allow Sienna to leave her ship without checking her body for any later troubles.

When she sent her nanos to give Sienna her punishment, they also checked to see if she was pregnant.

Long story short, Ailwin must have kept some inkling of sanity about him, for he stick didn't get anywhere near her hole.

Which was another reason she felt the need to smack upside the head. All her worries and stress was nothing.

Saavi didn't believe her, but she decided to let it go, "So, Sienna is a canoness now."

"No."

"No?" Saavi was puzzled, didn't she just tell me her sister said she was going to become a canoness?

"You really think my sister would go through with become a canoness for the rest of her life?" Remembering, Sienna's personality, Saavi slapped her forehead. How could I be so stupid?

"Hmph...Sienna found a way to get a celestial temple admission letter."

"Celestial temple? Aren't they the females who have the enormous power in court…their head even has the same authority as the King!"

Although Saavi is older, her lack of a background has stopped her from receiving some of the most basic education provided female her age. To make up for that shortcoming, she studied every night, so she doesn't fall behind the other students.

"En, the celestial temple...thought to be a place of worship and power, however, it's anything but." Mika dazed off as she recalled the information she read when she was hacking into the Rowood City's mainframes.

"What does that mean?" Saavi was confused as Mika didn't elaborate.

"Just know that if you ever receive an admission letter from them, to throw it away. Don't even think of going there… Even Sienna would have been better off becoming a canoness." Mika noticed the despondent look on Saavi's face at her warning. She wanted to say more, unfortunately, she hadn't finish looking through all the data she got from Rowood yet, and some of it was incomplete. However, she felt Saavi would be better off leaving that place alone.

Anything that has ties to that city and the King just spells evil.

Saavi was disappointed, she had been thinking get about joining to the Celestial Temple.

It's a place where females could shine, but hearing Mikaela's words she was starting wondered if she missed something important.

"Okay, I won't go there." After seeing the books and everything Mikaela told her about, she felt it wouldn't be worth it to ignore the danger.

Plus, if Sienna is accepted there then that place is not as virtuous as I thought. Saavi thought as she continued to help Mika to put away her clothes.

"Argh, I'm going to need to find a dress for the banquet in two days." Mika realized as she looked at her clothes in her closet, "Want to go shopping with me?" She asked, but received no reply.

"Saavi?" She came to see her friend staring down into her trunk.

"Mika, what are these doing in your luggage?" Saavi pulled out two bottles of fine wine that Mika smuggled out of the Bizana clan's household.

"….oh, you found your gift! I got us matching wine bottles." Mika grabbed one from Saavi's hands, "Bestie forever!"
