A Certain Job

"Lily… I might have to put on an act soon," Sophie admitted truthfully.

"Not matter what you see or hear, you need to keep the mask on and not say a word until we get on the starship."

"Can you do that for me?"

It was better to be honest now since there was no way that Sophie could hide the intimidation and threats that she was about to make.

Sophie also had a feeling that Lily knew more than she let on about what actions she had taken during the journey to ensure their safety.

The little girl wasn't foolish or blind. 

It was just that… 

Sophie really didn't want to show her the depths of her inner darkness or the monster that she became once she channeled the powers of the hunter goddess.

"Okay big sister. I understand," Lily replied softly. 

Sophie smiled gently at the little girl before reaching into her storage bag and pulling out a thin facial covering.
