Unwanted Reunion rough draft
🕑 Added 2024-10-05 03:29:45 +0000 UTCSo just a heads up this is touching on some major issues/content warrings. It's not kink bad, more mental heath bad (and I work though this stuff with my Fredricks Fancy series from time to time.) This is going to be a very hard story to swallow so reader beware.
Unwanted Reunion.
“Vess!” Hector pushed the door open. “What are you doing in here. I told you that you needed to be guarding the guest we brought in.”
The woman blew her bangs to the other side of her face. “Guard duty is benath me.” She stood up. “Besides whenever have we had to deal with guarding people before. I thought you said if we found rouge giantesses from that town would just. . .”
“I told you what the siuation is.” He grabbed her by the arm and shook her. “Can’t I ever get anything though that thick skull of yours?”
Vess rolled her eyes. “Look I don’t know why you are so interested in me being the next one to watch over these sorry bunch of losers. I don’t want to. I don’t even want to stay here.” She sighed and looked out the window.
“Well that isn’t your choice Vess. As my daughter it’s your job to—”
“Job?” Her head snapped back and her eyes burned into his body. “Is it my job to stay here and keep people over fifty feet tall hidden away from the world? What kind of life is that? Huh? I didn’t ask for this. I never did.”
Hector slapped her across the face. “Stop that right now. You need to understand your—”
“Stop treating me like I am a child. I am not! Do you even know how old I am?” She stood up, looming over him. Vess was the tallest person in the village by a wide margin, having to duck in most of the buildings. Everyone was a good ten to twenty feet smaller then she was. “Hell you even sent me out in the world to see the evils of humanity. That was twenty years ago.” Hector tried to slap her again but she stopped him. “Why can’t you get Kira to do this soul sucking job that you want? I am sure she is more than eager.”
Hector snorted. “More like more than eger to start a war.”
“What?”
“Nothing. Look no one but. . . hey where are you going?”
Vess walked to the door. “For a walk. I am not listing to you rant on and ignore me.” She ducked out of the doorway. “Because you are just so bullheaded that you can’t see anything outside of your own point of view.” She slammed the door behind her.

Sarah sighed as she looked up at the sky. “Well this isn’t what I expected from a society of giant folk.” She looked down at the chain around her ankle. “Not at all.”
A woman who was a good thirty feet taller then Sarah walked up to her, the woman’s giant blue eyes staring into Sarah’s soul.
“Do you want something?”
“I want to see the woman that has been causing such a stir.” She crossed her arms. “I don’t get it. You don’t look like much.” She snorted. “I don’t even get why you are still around.”
“What are you talking about?”
The woman pulled Sarah to her feet. “Do you want to know what we do with people who have twisted DNA like you?” She slams her foot on the ground. “We end them before they can polloute our kind. You are an abomination.”
“I am not!”
She dropped Sarah before bending over and undoing her leg shackle. “You can say that all you want but it doesn’t change the truth. Now get up.” She twisted her hips to show off a gleaming axe in the moonlight. “We are going for a walk.”
“Huh? But Hector. . .”
“Hector wants me to take control of this stupid village so I am going to deal with you.” She forced Sarah to her feet once more. “Now move it!” Sarah gulped as a strong hand was forced around her shoulder. “Just walk naturally.”
“But if you are doing this because you can. . .”
The woman elbowed Sarah in the back. “Shut up!” She looked about. “And keep your voice down. The last thing we need is any sleepless nosy bodies overhearing us.”
Sarah got the feeling that this lady wasn’t telling the entire truth but with a weapon around her belt there wasn’t much of a way she could question her so for the time being she let the woman escort her into the middle of the forest. As they moved though the trees and the moonlight shone down from above Sarah tried to start up a conversation. “Can you at least tell me anything about giantess civization.”
“That isn’t what we call it.”
“Then what do you call it?”
“Nothing. It’s just home. Stupid, borring, predicable home. Where nothing ever happens.” She elbowed Sarah hard in the back. “Now fucking move it. I am not going to waste my breath on a bitch like you!”
“You don’t have to be so crude.”
“And why do you think you can talk back to me?”
Another voice filled the air. “Because she is the most lovely woman in the world!” Before either of them could blink Ashely dashed at Sarah’s captuor. The sudden ambush cauht the giant woman offguard, knocking her to the ground and sending her weapon flying as they crushed dozens of pine trees.
“Ashey. You are—”
“It’s temporary. Thank the timely arrival of the super moon. Now help me keep this bitch down!” Sarah nodded her head and rushed over. “You fucking asshole!” Ashely puched the giantess in the gut. “That is for shrinking me!”
“I did no such thing. I have never seen you before.” The woman sneered. “Besides I would have just killed you, not shrunk you.”
“Huh?” Ashely blinked her eyes. “That was blunt.”
“What? Too much for you to handle?”
Sarah narrowed her eyes. “Why do you want to kill us? Even that Kira woman didn’t want to do that until she realized I had a human parent.”
Ashely chimmied in. “Who are you?”
“Who am I?” She turned her head. “Like I would tell you.”
Ashely pressed her elbow down harder. “Tell us!”
“Ughh. My name is Vess. Now get off me you bitch!”
Sarah snorted. “Okay Vess now explain the hostility.”
Vess narrowed her eyes, focusing on Sarah. “You want to know why I am so. . . hostilie? Why I hate you? If you weren’t around my life would be perfect!” Her voice raised in pitch. “PERFECT!” She thrashed under them. “Why couldn’t you have just died years ago. You little bitch.” Tears filled her eyes. “I don’t need you to be alive. If the others knew you. . . they would exile me or worse. I can’t have that happen.”
“What are you talking about?” Sarah looked at her confused.
“You can’t tell? You are almost the spitting image of me. You are going to ruin what little of a crappy life I have.” She tried her best to worm her way free. “I am going to do my best to get rid of you so. . . you don’t ruin my life. I hate you. I hate you. I wish you were never born!”
Sarah stood up. “You. . . no. No. This can’t be.”
Ashely turned around. “Sarah?”
“You can’t be my mother. My mother is supposed to be kind and loving.”
“I gave you up for a reason. You would have ruined my life and now you are.” She spat. “And I am going to rectifiy the mistake I made long ago!”

Yeah I have been very tight lipped about Sarah real parents for a reason. It's not pretty. I do touch on harder subjects from time to time as my characters do need to struggle every once in a while. But still, it's more about family isn't by blood but those who love you.
