As morning came so did reality. You got up and got ready. Then walked over to your window and looked out. You felt numb and that was understandable. You just lost everything you held dear. There was only one thing you knew. You were going to escape this place. After composing yourself, you decided to explore the area. You smelled something wonderful and followed the smell to a noise room. In side you saw Suzu cooking. She noticed you and smiled. You entered the room.
"Good morning." Suzu said. "I was going to wake you up after I finished cooking breakfast. You look better then yesterday. Are you feeling better as well?"
"I'm a little hungry." You confessed.
"Then if you help me cook this, you can have some." Suzu smiled. "You can stir."
You felt a little like a kid. Suzu was at least a foot shorter then you, but she was treating you like a child. Fortunately, you were too hungry to argue. After cooking multiple things, Suzu took four trips out of the kitchen carrying two plates each time. Suzu explained that they were for Youko and the other thieves. So, that meant that there were five other thieves besides Youko, Kuronue, and Yomi. You sat at the table and Suzu gave you a plate and sat down with you.
"So how did you end up here?" Suzu asked.
"A demon kidnapped me and then sold me to another demon that sold me at an auction." You explained. "What about you?"
"I was a demon hunter in training." Suzu answered. "I would catch the low class ones and take them away. The richer, higher class, demons would hire my family to do this. I had just caught some lower demons and then Kuronue caught me... Ironic isn't it? Spend the first 13 years of my life catching demons and then I got caught."
"You were thirteen when you were brought here?" You exclaimed.
"Yep." Suzu sighed. "I'm fifteen now. Two long years..."
"I see you two are getting along." A voice interupted.
You looked over and saw Youko.
"I was just telling her how I got here." Suzu explained. "She told me how she got here so I told her mine story too."
"Really..." Youko smirked.
You backed away a bit. Suzu stifled a giggle and left the room. Youko walked over to the table.
"I still haven't punished you properly for you disobedience..." Youko told you.
You looked up into his eyes. Having a collar around your neck like a dog wasn't enough of a punishment? Youko stood right above you. He bent down to your face. His face was an inch away when the door to the kitchen opened.
"Youko, ha-" The voice stopped. "Am I interrupting anything?"
You recognized the voice as Yomi's but it wasn't until Youko backed away from you that you saw him. Yomi was smirking.
"Judging by the size of her eyes, I'd say I had good timing." Yomi continued. "Do you disagree, Youko?"
Yomi was obviously teasing Youko.
"I was about to punish her." Youko leaned against the table. "But if you have something important to say, go ahead."
"I found an excellent place to raid." Yomi explained. "They are heavily guarded, but they have the best goods I've seen in a while."
Youko took the map Yomi had in his hands. He frowned.
"You actually think we can get in here?" Youko questioned. "Their walls are so fortified, we'd be lucky to get past the first wave of guards. You'd be endangering the whole team by going in there."
"You really have so little faith in your team?" Yomi asked. "What does the girl think?"
"You'd trust a little girl with such a decision?" Youko asked. "Fine. Girl, come here." You walked over to Youko slowly. He slowed you the map. "Do you think this building would be easy to break into?"
You looked at the map. It was of a building you only heard of once. It belonged to a wealthy, yet pessimistic man. Villagers said he was the wealthiest demon in the area. You knew there was no way anyone could get in without heavy losses.
"If you really want what's inside then a few lost demons should be of little concern to you." You answered. "How much to you want it?"
"She has wit." Youko smiled. "Go. You have prolonged your punishment once more."
You scurried out of the room. Suzu met you on the other side.
"What did they want?" Suzu asked. "Did Youko 'punish' you or did Yomi come in to early?"
"No. Youko did not punish me." You told her. "Yomi showed Youko plans to break into a building. Youko doesn't seem too enthused about it, though."
"Yomi is like that." Suzu replied. "Youko is our leader for a reason. He understands stuff that Yomi never will. Youko has patience and brains."
You nodded.
"Oh!" Suzu exclaimed. "I have my lessons! Um, can you clean the kitchen and see what ingredients we have run out of? Then there is a load of laundry in my room that needs to be washed. The wash room is right across the hall from my room. I'll be back in time of that though. If not, get started without me."
Suzu ran off and you stood in place dumbfounded. Suzu sure had things in order. If she always thought this much ahead you would probably have no time to yourself. You opened the door to the kitchen and saw that Youko and Yomi had taken their conversation elsewhere because the kitchen was now empty. You sighed in relief and began to gather the plates to wash.
You met Suzu again just before you left to start the laundry.
"I'm usually able to get the kitchen work done before my lessons, but with what happened today I just didn't have the time." Suzu explained as you washed the clothes in a bin with her. "Thank you for helping out. I hope things will get easier now. Kuronue trains me. It's his responsibility as my owner. Youko will start teaching you how to fight after you settle in more."
"I will have to fight?" You asked.
"Of course!" Suzu laughed. "You have to repay your debt to Youko. When you're older you'll become a thief or a maid until your debt is paid. With the cost of food, clothing,and everything, the quickest way to repay your debt is to become a thief. But, it takes time to learn the stuff. Once you prove to Youko you're worthy you'll start. The most important thing is not to get Youko angry with you."
You looked at Suzu. She knew so much more then you and you were the same age as her. How could she be so much more advanced?
"You learned as this is two years?" You questioned.
"It is my future." Suzu answered. "I think I'll remain as a thief here even after my debt is paid though. I don't have much of a life to return to anyway."
'I'll return home.' You thought. 'Once I get home, I'll live happily with father and mother. They must be worried sick by now.'
The next days were quite alike. You'd met Suzu in the kitchen make breakfast and clean until you helped make the next meal. Occasionally, you'd be sent on an errand to get cooking ingredients or something else you needed to work. You took in more and more of your surrounding each time you got out of the hide out. Suzu went with you the first few times, but now you were trusted to go alone. You decided you would try to run away once you had a plan. Even though Suzu had managed to do the jobs without your help before, she always had work for you to do. As soon as you reached your bed, you fell asleep. You thought you'd always be trapped in a cycle of work and loneliness. Then, one day, you had finished breakfast when Youko came into the kitchen. You had seen in rarely since the day in the kitchen.
"Come, girl." Youko said. "Today we start your training."
Youko took you to a room with wall of stone. The room was empty except for a barrel full of weapons. Youko reached in and took out a sword with an axe blade at the kilt.
"You will need to learn how to use each weapon, but you will only specialize it one or two." Youko gave the sword. "I have mastered the whip and growing plants on command." He back away from you and made a whip. "Now, we fight."
Youko came at you with his whip. You quickly dodged, but then you found yourself up against the wall with your own sword at your neck.
"I'm going easy on you." Youko told you. "If I had been any other warrior, you'd be dead. Your movements are predictable. You twitch right before you move."
Your eyes widened. You didn't even notice you twitched. You just tried to get out of the way before he hit you. Youko really didn't expect you to be able to defend yourself, did he? You weren't a seasoned warrior. This was the first time you even held a weapon.
"And now I claim my reward." Youko smirked.
Youko threw your sword to the side.
