Aubrey smiled. "You really don't need an eavesdropping device, but use it if you want to." She said lightly. "And Arianna, don't listen to the other centurions. They're just jealous of you."
Aubrey smiled. "You really don't need an eavesdropping device, but use it if you want to." She said lightly. "And Arianna, don't listen to the other centurions. They're just jealous of you."
"Ok…" Sage replied, confused at Ari's rapid change of attitude.
"I like the belt buckle Cato. Are you going to wear it Ari?"
“Wait what. Why are they jealous of me? Wait did they tell me something?” Arianna asked, confused to Aubrey. “And Sage, you want me to break a rule?”
“You dont have to,” Cato said quickly.
"Well, it's your choice," Sage said, shrugging, "but if you do, you're going to have to be really careful in case Alexander sees it."
“Alexander would probably execute me if I did.” Arianna shrugged.
"Maybe not then." Sage said. "I don't want you to be executed!"
“Me neither. If you really want to know, I can just tell you. As long as it’s not like super classified VIP info.”
Aubrey's face darkened. "I wish I could do something about Alexander. He threatened to kill me yesterday because I went easy on a new girl during training."
Sage raised an eyebrow. "Super classified VIP info? Is that a thing? Like Reyna get's up and says "Now senators, I just want you to know that this next part is Super classified VIP info?" Really?"
Then he registered what Aubrey had said. "What!" he cried.
“He’s always like that.” Arianna said softly.
Arianna rolled her eyes and chuckled a little.
Cato mumbled a few curses under his breath and said, “Get me proof and I can have him exiled.”
Arianna sarcastically laughed, “That wouldn’t work, trust me.”
Aubrey nodded. "He's mad. Like, crazy-mad. I can't stand him. He thinks that he's better then the rest of us centurions, just because he's actually been on a quest. I've been on a quest, it's not really something brag worthy other than 'I survived'."
“The rules have changed,” Cato shrugged. “Also my cousin my or may not be praetor.”
(If thats ok)
“I’m leaving.” Arianna said sharply, walking out briskly.
“Okay,” Cato said to her retreating back. “Byeee.”
"Bye…" Sage said, confused. "What did we do?" he asked, spreading his hands helplessly.
Aubrey sighed. "I wish I knew." She rubbed her necklace.
Arianna drank a glass of water and went to the meeting.
“I have no idea,” Cato replied, his forehead creasing in confusion for a moment before he returned to his work.
Sage looked at Cato. "I guess that's a no for the recording device then…"
“I guess so,” he sighed. “No matter what anyone tells you after the fact, its always better to hear it firsthand.”
Aubrey sighed. "Alright, I've got a meeting to go to. See you guys later. I promise to tell you everything I learn." Then she ran towards the Senate, scared of being late.
As Arianna took a seat, by another centurion who was she was friendly with. Too bad Alexander was already first, taking a seat beside the praetors, he stared menacingly at her. Arianna wanted to leave.
(I gots to go now swim practice bye)
“Alright, before we begin. I would like to say that everything in this meeting is not allowed to be discussed to anyone outside. Unless, we-“ Reyna motioned towards her and the other praetor, “- bring it up. Understood?”
(I gots to go now swim practice bye)
(Byeee.)
