"...morning Mia," she said softly she saw the rats but wow cooking meat smelled good. She looked at her "how come you change forms?"

 

[Ricia]

"Would you like the long answer or the short one?" Mia asked Jubei. She pulled the mice away from the fire before kicking dirt on it. She waved the mice around to try and cool them while she waited for Jubei's answer.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"um... well," she said softly "perhaps the long one? SO I can understand everything...how long are we talking?"

 

[Ricia]

"Long." Mia said, she was not sure how to describe long, "A few hours?" She tried before handing Jubei the stick.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"then maybe the short one for now please," Jubei said "Thank you for breakfast,"

 

[Ricia]

"Well we have hours.. and now plenty of time for suck explanation." Mia said. "In short. I am bonded to you so I've lost my adult form. I have lost my beast form as well. I now can only attain this child form and my animal form." Mia had a feeling she was going to ask for clarification.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I don't understand," she said "bonded to me? you cant become an adult now? but you were earlier?" her head hurt a bit from thinking too hard.

 

[Ricia]

"The long answer it is." Mia said sitting down. "Master, I am a species call Galvent. I am a sub-spices of demigods. In order for me to live I must be bonded to a intelligence being. This bond is my body to your soul. As you progress as a person... I will grow in power. My pourpus is to protect, serve and guide you through your life."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"So as I grow... you do?" she ask for clarification. "Does that include bodily? or is it a mental thing since you are bound to my soul rather then my body?" Jubei had some education so she had a light understanding of the difference between soul and body.

 

[Ricia]

"You are a very smart human. Mentally. As you grown mentally. I will grow with you psychically. So in other words... I will be the psychical manifest of your mental growth. I have 6 forms... two in which I can only achieve through special circumstances, though at any time when they have been meet. The other four... are the four you've seen. The beast form is my most powerful. My animal my most weak."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"The purple kitty, then I guess this form is second and the adult is next then the beast? What of the last two?" she asked Mia a bit boldened by the praise.

 

[Ricia]

"I don't know their names. I've never achieved them. I just know they exist. I don't know how to archive them either.." Mia told Jubei.

 

[InsaneTruth]

'i see... so you will learn it like I do, if I do," she said softly "Well... first I think we need to ... I need to get a bit of strength back, I was an entertainer at first, I can dance and sing. We can get money that way... I am not sure how well I could suurvive out of towns or social areas."

 

[Ricia]

"I will assure your survival no mater where we go." Mia told Jubei. "That is part of my job. You can order me to do what ever you need me to do. Nothing is out of your bounds."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I think it sounds harsh how you put it, you make it sound like... I could make you do something impossible," Jubei said

 

[Ricia]

"You could... There is a chance I may not be able to achieve what you ask of me. But I must try." Mia told Jubei. "but I was more hinting at that I can do most anything. Don't let this tinny form allude you to my powers." Mia straightened up a bit, "You can ask me to just go get money if you wish. Or to go get clothing. I can do so. Laws don't really apply to me."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Laws apply to all of us... I don't wan break laws unless we have to to live," Jubei said after a bit of thought. "I want to live... in a way I can hold my head up no matter what happens... do... you understand?"

 

[Ricia]

"If living by the law makes you proud, then you should go turn yourself back into your slaver. You are breaking the law just by running away. You, were, property of another." Mia told Jubei turning to look up at the sky. She wasn't trying to be argumentative... but Jubie didn't make sense to her.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Jubei shuddered and hugged herself "I... I don't... wanna be beaten or starved... I don't know what I did to deserve it," she lost that boldness and rather quickly became scared

 

[Ricia]

Mia sniffed a bit, "Don't follow laws. Laws are for the stupid." Mia then looked back at Jubei. "Master always said you should follow what is right.... and what is right changes from person to person. He described it as... following your heart. I did not understand. But he was set on that explanation."

 

[InsaneTruth]

Jubei was quiet she was scared still "Slavery isn't right," she said. "Masters don't care about you ... you're just meat,"

 

[Ricia]

"Master Oliven cared for me. I was sure." Mia told Jubei. "You will care for me as well. Correct Master Jubei?" Mia asked her, trying to give her some confidence.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Of course I will," Jubei said "but... I ... I'm in no shape to care for anyone physically all I can do is support... but... you're right I'm just a slave runnaway,"

 

[Ricia]

"I suppose you will need to change that." Mia told Jubei. "But away form here. I do not wish to get into a fight trying to keep your recapture." Mia looked over at Jubei. "Was the food to your liking?" she asked her.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Ah yes thank you," Jubei said she didn't have a huge appitite being as small as she was now. "We should leave... this area I guess you are right,"
