A Different Kind Of Life Part 3

~AJ~

So Kevin finally got with the program and sat next to us. We all just sat there and tried to eat but the food--if you could call it that-- was funky with a capital F.

"Everyone out! Dining hour is over!" One of the cooks said and everyone filed out of the room.

I guessed I was supposed to go back to my "slave quarters" so I did. To get to my room, I had to go thru the princess's room and then open the door to my room. I walked into Princess Nadine's room, who I was a slave to, and took in a breath. She was amazing.

"What do you think you're doing just standing there?" she said.

"I…umm…sorry…umm…what do you want me to call you?"

"You will address me as Princess or Nadine."

"Ok, is there anything you need?"

~No one (narrarator)~

Brian found himself in a similar predicament…

~Brian~

I walked in the room and saw Princess Cathrine. DANG that girl was FIIIINE!

She stood up and turned her back to me and just stood there. Was I supposed to do something?

"What are you doing? I thought you were trained already. Undress me!" she said.

I gulped. Did I hear her right?! "What?" I asked, incredulously.

"I will not repeat instructions again! Undress me!"

My eyes went wide, "Allrighty then." I put my hand on the back of her dress and undid the laces. I continued until she was in her underclothes.

"Get me my blue dress and set it on my bed. That will be all."

I did what she said and then went into my room-- if you could even call it a room.

~Nick~

I went into my "room". A teeny tiny made of stone room with an old, grody mattress on the floor and a little bowl looking thingie in the corner. There was also a bowl filled with water for washing .

Suddenly I felt I had to go potty, but I didn't know where the bathroom was. I went into the adjoining room to ask Princess Savannah.

"Yes…what's your name?" she asked.

"Oh, it's Nickolas but everyone calls me Nick."

"Oh well then, Nick, what do you need?"

"Umm…your highness, Princess--"

"Savannah, just call me Savannah."

"Savannah then. Savannah, where do you um… go to umm…you know…go?"

"You mean relive yourself?"

"Yeah." I said, blushing.

She bursted out laughing, "I'm sorry… I've never met anyone who didn't know… but then again, you're not from here, are you?"

"No but could we discuss this after you show me where?"

"Oh yes." She led me to my room and pointed to the bowl thingie in the corner. The one without water.

"There."

"There?! Oh my gosh…gross!"

"I leave you to do your duty. The chamber maid will empty it at dawn."

"Umm…okay…thanks I guess."

I went over to the corner and stared at the small bowl where I had to go. I saw bugs crawling all over it, worms, beetles and flies.

"Ugh." I sighed and umm… went.

~Kevin~

I walked into the room and saw Princess Melinda. She was next in line to recive the throne.

"Woah baby!" I said, when I saw her.

"What was that, slave? Did I hear you speak without being spoken to?!"

I got the idea and shut up.

"Answer me!"

"Yes mam, sorry."

"That's better. Now take my clothes to be washed and go!"

I sighed, "This is gonna be a long--life? How are we gonna get out of here?!" he thought.

"I said GO!" The princess ordered.

I left the room with her dirty clothes.

~Howie~

My princess is very nice. She said since it was my 1st day, I could rest and start tomorrow. She WAS nice until I found out that "tomorrow" meant 2 in the morning!

~The next day at slave breakfast~

"Hey Frick, have you gone to the bathroom yet?" Nick asked.

"Ugh. I know…don't remind me!" Brian replied.

"Well I found a way to play medieval Nintendo!"

"How's that?"

"Aim for the bugs!"

Brian started laughing so hard he almost choked on the "food".

"How do you do the score?"

"5 for worms, 10 for beetles and 20 for the flies, if you can nab 'em!" Nick said, laughing.

The rest of the guys just shook their heads at Nick and Brian and went on eating.
