Gloria hummed to herself as she pinched a grape with two of her claws. Here you go, she said and raised her paw. With a flick of her ankle, the grape soared through the air and into a blue bears waiting mouth. The bears head was jutting out of a black vortex, floating in the air beside Gloria. The Star Ursula swallowed without chewing before smiling at the cursed dragon.
My sealed evil is better than yours, Ramon said and picked up a grape. He tossed it at Kozabokget, and the white goat had to jump to catch it lest it hit the ground.
Daniel is cuter and easier to hug, Gloria said without looking at her brother. She picked up another grape and flicked it at the Star Ursula. Kozabokget is so small. If you try to hold her, youll break something.
Thats not true, Ramon said and leaned over. He grabbed Kozabokget and hugged the goat to his chest. A loud cracking sound echoed through the palace room along with a miserable whimpering sound. Ramon furrowed his brow, and his eyes shone. A white light enveloped Kozabokget, healing the poor goat. See? Shes easy to hold.
Gloria rolled her eyes before picking up the bowl of grapes. She raised her paw and dumped all the grapes into the Star Ursulas mouth. Its time for class, Gloria said and lowered the bowl. She patted and rubbed the Star Ursulas head before scratching behind its ears. Ill see you later, Daniel. Be good!
The Star Ursula let out a low roar, and its head retracted into the black vortex. Gloria grunted and pressed her paw against the ground. Runes appeared on the edge of the black vortex, and with a sucking sound, the vortex collapsed in on itself, taking the runes along with it as it disappeared.
Ramon let out an exaggerated sigh and collapsed to the ground, stretching out his limbs while letting his chin rest on the floor. He rolled his eyes down to look at Kozabokget. Can you ask the light to make an image of me going to class? I dont want to go.
I can, Kozabokget said. But your mom will see through it, and both of us will get in trouble. She nudged Ramons face with her front legs. Lets go. You might not be afraid of getting hit by your moms punishment stick, but I am! That thing is thrice my size.
Gloria shrugged. Maybe it makes her happy, she said. I like feeding Daniel even if I dont have to.
Oh, Ramon said, dragging out the word. His brow furrowed, and he stared at Tafel as if she were a freak. Studying is your hobby? He shivered. Cant you get a normal one like biting rabbits tails off? Its because of you that Grandma is always pushing us so hard. Ramon stood on his hindlegs and pinched his snout. Look at Tafel; see how diligent she is? Why cant you be more like her, Ramon?
Kozabokget nudged Ramons leg. Your grandmas almost here, she whispered.
Ramon flinched and dropped to the ground. He quickly took his seat by Tafels side and folded his paws in front of himself on the table, looking much like a model student. Moments later, Gren walked into the room and stared directly at Ramon. If youre going to impersonate me, your voice should be lower, not higher.
Yes, Grandma Gren, Ramon said and lowered his head. He stared at the table, not daring to make another sound.
Gren stared at Ramon for a little while longer before turning to look at Kozabokget. She grinned at the goat, baring her teeth. Youre not going to try to run away now that Vur isnt here?
Kozabokget shook her head back and forth. I like it here, she said. Why would I run away? Ramon treats me very well. Other than accidentally crushing her with his strength, Ramon wasnt a bad owner. He didnt force her to do anything, and he even fed her grapes on occasion. Although there was less freedom, she preferred to be a little less free than have to worry about the threat of being eaten by Vur constantly hanging over her head.
Gren snorted and glanced at Ramon. Lets hope that stays this way.
Ramon blinked. Why was he the one being lectured again? It was Kozabokget that replied!
