the Price of Life

This is a story about two sisters. Their names are Hi and Yoru. Day and Night. They are stuck in a wilderness, trying to find civilization, only to find they are trapped in an alternate dimension. There are small groups of others who have been drugged and brought here to that place, called Htrae, as punishment for crimes unknown, and all they have are their matching lockets, given to them by their kidnapped father. The last thing you expect when you clicked and started reading is that they're shape shifters.

Back to the Camp

Five days later:

Hi and I arrived at the camp.. It took three days, and we had packs laden with supplies. We dared not shapeshift, in case someone saw us. We walked to the entrance of the camp. "Time to make a ruckus," Hi said as she picked up a stick to bang against the timber of the wall. Hi, no, please do-" I was cut off by the TWACK! of the log against the wall. "oh, Hi, why..." I mumbled as armed men came rushing out of the gate. "HEY! You two!" Hi pointed sarcastically at herself then to me. "Who, us?" "YES, YOU! What WERE you doing!?" "Oh, I dunno, ju-" I tapped Hi on the shoulder. "We were attempting to get your attention, but my sister here went about it the wrong way. Does my answer satisfy you?" "Don't get snotty, bitch. And yes, it does." Hi but in. "Um, could you please not say that to Yoru? she usually talks like that so-" one of the other men grabbed her. Everybody except probably him became acutely aware that none of us had clothes (everyone was a real dipshit for not thinking about MAKING clothes). "We'll let you and your smart-mouthed sister in, won't we, fellas?"
