Bab 7: Saving Quinn
Samuel sat outside in the gardens of his manor, the sun was slowly descending, he heard Elena speaking with Dariia, as they continued their class. Elena smiled as she began trying to recite the alphabet, "A, b, c, dandelion, d, e, f," Elena continued trying, before stumbling and then stopping.
"Elena, I told you it would be hard, lets try it again, you can do it."
"Okay, a, b, c, d, e," She pointed at the letters as she said them, she had learned extremely quickly, at least that was the first page in Dariia's textbook, it had 49 more pages, for numbers and words, she had a long way to go. Samuel got up and began walking, hand on blade and the other at his belt. He turned around and saw Fiora walking towards him.
"Another humiliation will take place soon, Sam, you should get going."
"Will do, is there a carriage ready?" Fiora nodded, "I better get going then."
"Juliet and Georgia are waiting for you."
"Perfect."
He walked towards the main square where a girl was separated from her clothes and forced into restraints that would then force her to take any humiliation. He looked around the crowd and saw several men eyeing her, clearly he would have to be the first one to be able to save her.
The last restraint was tied and the three men climbed down from the stage, leaving the girl alone, unprotected and helpless to her supposed fate. A man was the first one to climb onto the stage, ready to humiliate her, "Back off," Samuel called as he walked up onto the stage, "I will take her."
"Nah, she is mine, I'm gonna make sure she pays for her crimes."
"Okay, but if you do, know that you will not have much else to do in life, having no hands is pretty crippling," He said as he walked towards the man, "Now, leave, unless you really want that to happen."
"Now who the hell are you?"
"Sir Samuel, knight of our king, retired," He said calmly as the man pulled a blade from his belt, "You don't want to do that, I will kill you if you try to kill me."
"Yeah, yeah, old man, you can't fight me," He lunged forwards and Sam ducked under his strike and lifted him from the ground and made him fall to the ground on his back. Samuel drew one of his small blades and spun it around his hand, showing off a certain mastery of blades, "You little," He lunged forwards with his blade and Samuel dodged before jamming his knife into the man's gut, lifted him from the floor and then tossing him aside before pulling his blade back to his hand. He cleaned his blade on the man's shirt as he bled and then walked towards the girl who was tied up. He freed her and then helped her out of the frame that held her in an awkward and defenseless position.
"Take your clothes, my lady, they don't need to do more to you," She nodded and took her clothes before pulling them on, "Now, follow me if you wish."
"Where are you taking me?"
"To a place that will be better for you," He said as she finished getting dressed, "Don't be fearful," He smiled as she followed him and Juliet appeared once more like for Elena and smiled, "Please, climb up," He helped her up, "Juliet, thank you," He tapped the carriage and Georgia began moving it once more as the crowd tended to the wounded man, "I am Sir Samuel, but please call me Sam, you are?"
"Quinn Silverblade, whereabouts are we going?"
"We are going to Sir Samuel's manor, he protects ladies like us."
"Like us?"
"Yes, those who were humiliated."
"Wait, so you aren't saving me to get something out of me?"
"Of course not," Samuel laughed, "I am offering you a room in my property, a place to stay, people to teach you to read, write, speak or other skills."
"I know how to write," she said proudly, making Samuel smiled, "I can't afford to pay you."
"You don't need to think about it, I am giving you this chance."
"This chance?"
"Yes, Sir Samuel will allow you to stay in his home and live freely, away from the terrible intentions of those who humiliate instead of providing justice."
"What does that mean?" She turned to Samuel.
"You will have your own room, your own schedule, your own freedom, we will have people to help you out, but you will be free."
"How can you do that?"
"Through hard work, and having over 5 campaigns with the king's army."
