Soul Fusion Online-Chapter 144.2: Run In At The Clothing Store Part 2

"Mary, let Trisha push me." Yuki finally cut in. She was used to Trisha always pushing her anyway.

"But Master..." Mary's bottom lip began to quiver as she looked at Yuki with big doe eyes that were slightly watery as he continued: "Am I not doing a good enough job? Ha-Have I completely failed at being your guard? Is my… Is my service no longer needed!?" With all the glory of an oscar winning actress Mary threw herself on the ground as tears rolled down her cheeks: "To think after I was born and first activated, all I ever thought about was serving my master. Every day I watched as people bought all the other guards while I stood there hoping that one day I would finally meet the master I could love and care for.

"And today, my dream finally came true. But who would have thought that within just a few hours, my dream would end? I would rather not go back and wait for a new master. Since I am useless and am not even able to serve my Master correctly, I can only terminate myself here and now. Master, although our time was short. Although I tried my best to serve you well and protect you from the hardships of the world. I still cherished our time together. Goodbye, my Master. The only one who was willing to give this useless me a chance even though in the end I was unable to do anything. Goodbye, this world that had created me... "

"Alright, stop!" Trisha was starting to feel bad, and the people around them were all staring at them. Even Tina had backed away and acted like she did not know them. Gritting her teeth, she looked at the damn A.I. guard who seemed to be some kind of first rate actress and stepped to the side as she said: "Please push Yuki."

As if nothing had ever happened, Mary jumped up from the ground and took up her position behind Yuki. "Let's go, Master, there are so many clothes in this store that I am sure you will like. We really need to buy you something nice. I will help you try everything on."

Seeing the sudden change in Mary's attitude made Yuki unsure if she should laugh or cry. As for Trisha, she was staring at the damn robot wanting to beat it up! Mary sensed Trisha looking at her and turned her head. She smiled mockingly and stuck her tongue out at Trisha as she happily pushed Yuki into the store, leaving Trisha standing there pointing her finger at the damn robot. "You!" She could only say one word as she stomped her feet and chased after Yuki!

Bell, who was watching the whole scene from the side, held her head. "When will Big Sister Mary grow up…."

Tina found the whole thing amusing. But she was quite shocked at how much of a personality these A.I. guards had. She took a peek at Keith who was standing next to her, and wondered just what kind of personality he had since he was very quiet. Only after staring for a few seconds did she turn her head away and follow Yuki into the store.

Unfortunately, this happy family outing was something that was not meant to be. Inside the store, a figure that Trisha knew all too well was standing there with a group of other noble daughters standing around her looking at clothes. They quickly noticed when Yuki and her group walked in.

"Pfft… look at this disabled girl. Did she think coming here would allow her to look pretty? She doesn't even have any hair on her head." One of the noble girls said her voice was not loud but loud enough for everyone around to hear.

"Haha! Now, now. It is not good to make fun of the disabled. Let her shop and dream of becoming a princess one day." Another girl said. Her words sounded like she was speaking up for Yuki, but they had an underlying meaning.

These were girls that Yuki did not know at all, but yet they still dared to speak ill of her. Sadly they talked about the wrong person. "Say it again!" A voice filled with anger echoed throughout the store.

Hearing this familiar voice, Jasmine turned around from the clothing rack she was at and saw Trisha standing there. "Oh? If it isn't the ex-unwanted princess. Are you sure you should be here at this store? Do you even have money to be here?"

Jasmine's words were full of mockery. She scanned Trisha up and down then her eyes landed on the girl in the wheelchair. "Sister to think you would go so low as to serve as a maid for a disabled girl."

"Heh, Do you think you are all that Jasmine? Do you think you can just look down on anyone!? Do you think you can talk shit about my Yuki!?" Trisha yelled out as she walked right up to Jasmine, raised her hand, and…

*Slap!*

The crisp sound of skin hitting skin was heard. Jasmine stood there holding her cheek, looking at Trisha in disbelief. She never expected the easy to bully unwanted princess would actually slap her! Her eyes quickly burned with rage as she yelled out: "You dare hit me!?" She raised her hand and was about to slap Trisha back when a voice stopped her.

"Stop!" Yuki yelled out. "Mary, push me over there."

"Yes, Master." Mary was already holding back since her Master did not tell her to attack yet when she heard those girls making fun of her sweet, loveable Master.

Jasmine did stop her actions because she was told to stop but because the voice seemed familiar. A little more feminine, but it was still very familiar. Jasmine turned her attention to the girl in the wheelchair who was being pushed over, trying to figure out who this girl was. "Who are you? And what right do you have to give me orders?"

"You're the 8th princess of the world, yet you act like a shrew in public. Are you not afraid of disgracing the royal family with your actions? Or do you think that just because you are a princess, you can act as you please? Let me tell you something here and now. This is not your palace which means you can not do as you please. Even as the royal family, you still have to abide by the laws unless the king himself says otherwise. Mary, slap everyone who bad mouthed me and then slap this princess three times."
