Derae sighed, sitting in her tent, her eyes trained toward the ground. She honestly wanted to disappear right now... She could feel the tremors in her body and she watched as she lifted her hands, the tremors that shook them. 

[color=yellow]"You know... I've always liked your long hair. Reminds me of your mother."[/color]

She clenched her teeth, anger slowly replacing fear and shock. How dare he!

[color=gray]-I know you don't want to hear it, but you did ask for it. Stop egging them on.-[/color] Kou spoke finally, sauntering over to the other side of the small tent. 

[color=cyan]"I don't care!"[/color] She shouted aloud and looked over at Kou, only to see him staring at the other end of the tent. She stopped for a moment and turned slowly to see Levi staring down at her. Ahh... That had to be a bit awkward...

"Stand up, please." Levi asked, watching her with concern in his eyes. With a glare in her eyes, she did as he asked, no longer wanting to piss anyone off. She could feel the pressure release yet again as the rope was cut from her wrists.

[color=cyan]"What?"[/color] She asked, turning around.

"Xander's orders. They'll post up guards around your tent, but you'll be treated better from now on. Is there anything I can get you?" Levi explained.

[color=cyan]"I wouldn't mind a better hair cut."[/color] She replied, chuckling despite the anger she still felt towards the damned commander. Levi simply nodded and soon returned with a mirror and a sharp knife. 

The next morning, Derae woke with better hair than she would have otherwise, but it was still sticking up in all directions. She sat up as the morning sun shone on her tent and ran her fingers through her hair. Pursing her lips, she ruffled her hair a bit, attempting to get it look at least a bit decent before getting dressed. They weren't too far out from Hyrule Castle so they'd probably get there that day... Hopefully. 

Patting Kou on the head, Derae crawled her way towards the exit to her tent only to be greeted by guard ass. [color=cyan]"Ahh... Not that this isn't a lovely site but could you... uhm... move... please?"[/color] She asked, waving up towards the guards. This was a bit of an awkward position to be in.
