Down-trodden People: Part 3

Hinata and Sasha were not aware of the development in the storage hatch. They were already troubled due to the deteriorating health of the queen and this accidental attack on their most beloved worker Chan Su. But a servant informed them of all the procession in the storage house. Sasha did not let the servant inform Hinata about it and she picked up a sword and left the castle aggressively.

People in the hatch were provided with dry clothes. Servants along with Maria brought the clothes in the spur of the moment. Ladies took shelter to change their clothes by drawing a curtain between them and their male counterparts. These ladies made the curtain out of their raincoats and they changed clothes by taking the turns. Everything was going on smoothly until Sasha arrived and she started shrieking.

"What the hell on earth is going on?"

Who the hell gave you the permission of letting these down-trodden people stay here?" Sasha was loud. Her voice seemed to echo and everyone was in a trance. Nobody said anything. She saw into the eyes of Jerua. There was self-confidence in the eyes of Jerua. He did not seem embarrassed or afraid of Sasha and he did not think of any explanation required to be given to this strange authoritative girl. Now she was looking at Chika. Sasha remembered that she was the girl who she chided a few days ago. And it was established before this girl that Sasha would be the chief of the tribe from now. She looked at her with a sight of familiarity. Chika was shivering out of cold and Sasha thought she was afraid of her. She asked her to come out. She came nearer and asked then Sasha asked

"What do you think, who gave you the authority of staying here?" that girl did not speak about anyone. She was not ready to complain about anyone here. Not about Maria at any cost. And Sasha just suspected that these two girls have befriended each other. It was her wild guess. She thought that situation is getting out of her hands, as no one was cooperating with her investigation. When Sasha could not reach any conclusion she said to the Chika girl

"Come join me in the castle" everyone was silent and Chika thought it in the best interest of everyone to accompany Sasha. She left and everybody stool still including Maria and Jerua.
