Bonni and Anu

Will left my brother and I at the hotel while he went in search of new clothes, as not to raise too much suspicion. When he got back, he told us of how he had gotten distracted by a little show put on in town square, "some kid begging for money. It was like a circus, puppets and everything."

After putting on his new uniform, Anu glared in disgust, "This is the best you could do? I look like a sissy! Come on, couldn't you have gotten me some kind of armor or something? I don't want to be anyone's foot man."

I had to admit, he did look a little froo froo, "Well, at least you don't have to wear a dress." I tried not to look disgusted, "Will wants us to look like royalty, so you will wear that and you won't complain." I scolded Anu, though secretly wishing the same thing he did.

"How do I look?" Will came out in his equally froo froo outfit. We couldn't help but laugh.

"How long before this stupid ball, anyway?" Anu complained, "I can't wait to put on normal clothes again."

"Soon enough, brother. Now, you know the plan, right?" I looked sternly at him.

"Yes, yes. Of course! How could I forget? You only told me a million times!" He rolled his eyes at me.

"I won't have that kind of behavior tonight, understand?"

He rolled them again,"whatever, you're not in charge of me. . ."

"Yet." Will and I said in unison.

"You guys are boring. Besides, if you really wanted to come home you wouldn't be frolicking about, and wouldn't be going by your civilian name." He shot back.

"What?"

"No, I do not want to go back. What do I have to return to? More scorn and rejection? No. I will never use that name again. If I hear you even mutter it, you will be dead to me as well."
