Chapter 40 - Chappie 40

The doors were pulled open and a lady stepped in. She was wearing a simple black dress with a high collar, green necktie and long black sleeves. She also had on a large hat which covered the entire left side of her face and blood red lips.

Of course none of the prisoners even knew what she had on, not to mention what she even looked like. They all kept their heads lowered as they were told to.

The lady walked into the room and began to inspect the prisoners. Her eyes were scanning the prisoners with great interest as she walked back and forth. She stopped when she was satisfied.

"Kenward, are these the prisoners you captured? "

"Yes, Lady Elenor. I hope they're to your liking."

"Not bad...except, I have no use for the old people ." Elenor said."Feed them to the zombies. " She then took off her hat exposing her disturbing face.

A few skeletons came forward and dragged all the old people out of the ballroom to be fed to the hungry zombies.The old people resisted and kicked as they were dragged away by the skeletons.

While the old people were dragged away, no one dared to make a sound of protest. They all kept their heads down .

"You've done well Kenward. "Elenor praised Kenward.

"Thank you my lady. " Kenward said bowing before her.

Elenor pointed at three girls and said to Kenward "Brimg them forward ". She pointed at Vivian and two other girls.

The girls were brought forward and Elenor said to them. " As of this moment, you three will be in charge of making sure my study is in order."

"Yes miss. " They stammered.

"DON'T EVER CALL ME MISS! You will address me as 'My lady'. Do I make myself clear? "She asked.

"Yes my Lady." The three girls said in unison with their heads still lowered.

Elenor continued to separate the rest of the captured prisoners into their respective duties.
