Chapter 7 - CHAPTER EIGHT THE HOME SEARCH

Currently Two Guards had been led in by Mark's father into thier home.

" Good morning sir I am Erica and we are from the Castle of the Grand Master and an order had been given by the Grand Master that we search every home because there is an assassin on the loose." A female guard spoke.

" Hmm an assassin on the loose? That is scary but I can assure you that assassin is not in this house but to be sure you can go ahead and check." Mr Hanstine said not understanding what is going on.

"Okay thanks sir I will go upstairs and he will stay here with you." Captain Erica said pointing at cain then she went upstairs.

' I am doomed that is Captain Erica and sergeant Cain if they notice me what will be the outcome? No no no no, I can't go back to that palace.' Kayla thought to herself as she was trying not to make eye contact with the guards.

A few minutes later Captain Erica came back from upstairs with a disappointed look on her face. " You were right sir, the assassin is not in this house so we will take our leave sorry for the trouble." Captain Erica said as she and Cain were heading to the door.

' Thank God they are going this whole escape thing is becoming too stressful ' Kayla thought while starting to calm down.

" Good appetite my friends." Captain Erica said as she turned and looked at the kids then suddenly she halted.

' Something about one of the kids looks off.' Captain Erica thought.

'The first thing is the entire time I have been in this house that kid have not turned his face and he do not look relaxed.' Captain had these thoughts and came up with a plan.

Captain Erica turned back and headed over to the dining table and asked.

" Hope you don't have if we have breakfast with you mr Hanstine?"

"Why, sure, go ahead and have a sit." Mr Hanstine said as he passed a bowl and a kettle over to the guards.

" Hello I am Erica and this is Cain and you?" Captain Erica asked while looking at Mark.

" Oh I am Mark nice to meet you." Mark replied.

" And who is this?" Captain Erica asked pointing at Kayla.

" Yeah She's my brother" Mark answered.

" Eh She?" Captain Erica asked with a confused look on her face.

" Oh sorry I meant he. He is my brother." Mark replied.

"And can I know his name? If you don't mind? "

Captain Erica asked referring the question to Mark.

" Ehm he is called..."

'What name can I tell them? I can't say Kayla because that is a girl's name so what name can I tell them?'

" Well what's his name ?" Captain Erica asked Mark again who seemed like he was thinking about something.

" Baylas, yes Baylas that is his name." Mark said nervously giving out just any name that came to his mind.

Pfft hahahahahahi "Your brother is so weird. He has such a funny name and on top of that he looks just like a girl when he is having those earrings on." Cain said while trying to control the laughter in him before he stopped when he saw that Captain Erica was not finding it funny.

' Damnit we totally forgot that Kayla has those earrings on. tch How could we forget such a thing' Mark thought.

" Earings?" Captain Erica asked as she was turning to look at the earrings.

ohu ohu ohu...

at this point Kayla was sweating very much and she started coughing while leaving the table and too trying to hide her earrings because she knew if Captain Erica noticed the earrings she will recognize it is her right away.

So Kayla left the table and went upstairs.

" Uhm Miss Erica please I request you to stop asking questions. It will not be a good habit to talk while eating don't you think?" Mark's father spoke as he was referring the question to Captain Erica.

" Yes you are right I am sorry and we will take our leave now thanks for the breakfast." Captain Erica said as she stood up and she was heading to the door.

" Huh we are leaving?" Cain asked as he was was looking at his unfinished food on the table but he followed Captain Erica because he never wanted another scolding.

' Damnit we have been working all morning and when I want to have a little meal this woman won't let me eat even for a minute. tch.' Cain thought as he was looking at the back of Captain Erica with anger.

Currently Captain Erica and Sergeant Cain had left Mark's house and they were leaving the area.

" Cain I know you have a big appitite but don't tell me you didn't notice that those people were acting strange." Captain Erica asked.

" What do you mean? Oh yeah it was strange that the boy had such a funny name and he was putting on those earings." Cain said while laughing.

"Apart from that the boy called Mark was finding it hard to answer simple questions and the Baylas boy was sweating alot and trying to avoid eye contact and too he had such a strange cough all a sudden when I was asking questions." Captain Erica said.

"Hmm yeah that's true those people are really strange I think they are hiding something." Cain said.

" And maybe that something might concern the princess. From now on we will keep an eye on this house until we discover what they are hiding." Captain Erica said as she and sergeant Cain left the place to search else where.
