Anonym & Switch, Obtaining Power to Retaliate Chapter 18

Chapter 18

Intermission (2)

Sitting right beside the lonesome girl, she looked up at her and smiled. "Greetings"

The girl was about eight, her innocence clearly still on her face and actions as she looked at her quickly and bowed her head to someone older then her. She looked a little scared but never wanted to be rude, knowing that something bad could happen.

"Do you hate your siblings?"

The girl looked at her startled. She shook her head viciously, stating that she could not think of such a thing!

Anonym started to talk to her, but she had indeed started the wrong way to talk to her. Noticing that the little girl rarely spoke and that she looked eager to have Anonym leave, Anonym wondered where she had gone wrong. Don't people who get bullied want any help these days?

"Oh, look! Little Gale found a friend!" A boy, that was about twelve, pointed at them, he said this rather loudly to gain attention.

A few people looked back at them, seeing it was finally time that they were able to do something else in attempt to bully the young girl. "Gale, who is your friend, tell us!"

"She looks like she's from a n.o.ble family, she shouldn't be sitting there with you, she should be sitting here with us!"

Anonym, using the art of invisibility, pushed the boys chair towards the other child beside him. The boy fell onto his elder sister’s lap, startling her as she started to fall, losing her drink all over herself.

Laughing, Anonym covered her mouth and said, "If I had been with you, I wouldn't look so good right about now!"

Now there were four children looking at her and the lonely child, the two who Anonym had pushed over were giving her a very nasty look. The other two, seeing that their siblings had come out to lose face in front of another person, made them angry!

Of course, they wanted to take it out on both Anonym and the other little girl!

Getting up, off their chairs, the two came towards them and stood in front of them. "Come with us, we'll show you something good outside."

Clapping her hands, Anonym smiled. Great! "Sure!"

The two older children looked at each other, thinking that this new acquaintance was strange.

Four of them left...

Two came back. Anonym winked at the eight-year-old girl and left to go back to her General's chair.

Switch had watched Anonym from the other side of the room and noticed that the two other children had not returned. "What did you do to them?" He asked, as she sat down next to him.

Anonym smiled at him.

Why can't she just answer me!? I am not going to beg for an answer!

So, he never found out!

The reason Anonym hadn’t told him was because the art she had used had been long known as forbidden. For one, Switch may not have even know about it and she’d have to explain it, which she didn’t want to do! Two, if she went on about it and someone heard, it would cause trouble to all four continents and she wasn’t strong enough for that yet!

Basically, all she had done was undo any cultivation that those two children had…Making them start from the very beginning once again, and having the art cast upon them will leave them unconscious for nearly a week. She wanted to give the little girl a chance to be able to fight back! Just before they had walked in and Anonym had said her goodbye’s, she had told the little girl to blame her and to become strong, so they don’t hurt her anymore.

"All arise! Imperial Concubine Dawn and Prince Nathan enters."

"...Awesome!" Anonym was ecstatic, royalty was also here! Bargain!

Switch noticed Anonym wasn't going to stand and then bow, he whispered, "What are you doing?"

She looked back at him innocently and shrugged, "I'm above royalty here."

Switch was speechless, but somewhat agreed and stayed seated himself. Looking at her, he was sure that this ten-year-old girl really did know the past! Knowing that her power was much more significant, could only be that...Or, could she naturally have such a high ego? Unsure, Switch was really tempted to ask! If she knew who she was, they would surely be able to work better together.

He was about to start speaking when Prince Nathan pointed out towards them. "Do you not pay respects towards the crown? Why are you arrogantly sitting there and not kneeling before us!"

Anonym laughed, "I'd much prefer that you to kneel to me, your highness."

…

Switch didn't think she'd say something like that! She really does have such a high ego!

"Audacious!" Yelled both the Imperial Concubine and the Prince. "Guards! Take them away!"

Anonym cracked her knuckles and stood up. "Right on! Let me have em all Madam!"

Switch looked at her in astonishment...Was this…Her plan?

Jumping on top of the table, she watched as several guards came towards her. Jumping out, she went invisible in mid air and the crowd went speechless!

…

"The art of Invisibility!"

"Invisibility!"

Switch shook his head, didn't she know how to keep secrets!?

It was also at this time that the Imperial Concubine knew of this girl! She was the messenger between the Rain Clan and the Hydra Clan! When had she gotten loose?

The Imperial Concubine looked towards an elder of the Hydra Clan, that was also attending the banquet, and he saw that the Imperial Concubine was very upset...They hadn't wanted to tell her that they had lost the messenger, they wanted to get her back before they could find out and pretend that it had never happened. But now...

The elder looked at the middle of the large area with hatred. They were under the protection of the Imperial Concubine and did whatever she asked, but now that they had lost their biggest bargaining chip, would she dismiss their relations.h.i.+p!?
