✂ — a vivid memory
Slice.
“Please! I’ll be good! I won’t talk back!”
Slice!
His attempts at begging only made the man work harder at cutting open the chimera boy’s back. The chimera attempted to muffle his cries of pain. If one tactic didn’t work, maybe another. Maybe if he stayed quiet, his Master would forgive him.
But that wasn’t how this worked. It went on for nearly a half hour, as the pig king had to keep redoing his work if the Commander struggled. Punishments were never done half way. Back peddling and apologizing would get him nowhere. It was then he promised himself that he would never insult this man again, or anyone else if he could help it. He couldn’t risk it. He couldn’t take this take. If only this was the worst punishment he’d ever receive.
