  “You know what, that gets my vote,” Triska agreed with.

  “Yes, please?” Alyssa asked with a sweet smile. “Would you two be so kind as to help Squeak talk to Daniel during her turn with him tonight?”

  “Hey!” Falla barked out. “We had a deal. I’m going to be her translator tonight. She nearly killed me earlier and offered this along with sleeping next to Daniel as an apology, she owes me!”

  Jovian and Jacqueline smirked and glanced to each other then looked at Squeak curiously.

  “Wait,” Jovian questioned. “Are you saying you want us to convey her words to Daniel tonight while they’re on their ‘date night’?”

  “I believe they are, sister,” Jacqueline mentioned. “Although I’m not quite sure if I want to sleep next to a boy tonight, that would be very strange for me.”

  “Perfect!” Triska eagerly said. “You don’t have to sleep with them. Once they go to sleep you can just leave, no worries.”

  “Yeah, we actually prefer it that way,” Alyssa agreed.

  “What do you say?” Specca asked hopefully. “Could you please help us with this?”

  “What the hell?” Falla yelled out. “You can’t do that, I was going to help her tonight. Dammit, I’m trying to be nice to you stupid jerks here!”

  Daniel looked around at the group then to Squeak as the ant girl was thinking about her options, her eyes going from Falla then over to the witch sisters as her antennae twitched slightly.

  “Well, um… I guess it’s up to you, Squeak,” Daniel said with a shrug.

  Squeak glanced to him then looked at the sisters with a small smile and squeaked a few times, with the two new girls giggling and looking back and forth between her and Daniel.

  “Oh my,” Jovian said playfully. “I don’t know, should we really get involved in their affairs like this?”

  “They’re being so nice as to give us a ride, I don’t think we have a choice, sister,” Jacqueline answered with a shrug.

  “This is bullshit!” Falla shouted while stomping her foot. “What about me? I’m trying to be nice to you people here, you can’t just turn around and say no to me now. We had a deal!”

  Squeak looked to her with a dull expression and squeaked something, with Falla watching her with annoyance then glancing to the sisters as they laughed at her.

  “She says she changed her mind,” Jovian relayed. “But is still sorry about nearly crushing your head earlier.”

  “Yeah,” Jacqueline added with a shrug. “She trusts us with Daniel more than she does with you.”

  “What?” Falla yelled out at Squeak. “How can you trust them more than me? You just met them! Besides, I promised I wouldn’t do anything with him, remember? I need your help finding my sister. I’m not doing anything wrong here!”

  The ant girl squeaked at her while shaking her head, with the group watching her curiously. Jovian smirked and walked up to Squeak, gently pushing Falla back away from the ant girl while Jacqueline walked over to her other side.

  “She said they shall still help you find your sister,” Jovian explained. “However since you don’t really care about the human child at all she feels less inclined to be nice to you.”

  “How can you say that?” Falla demanded. “Of course I care about the little brat, I was helping Luna bring her to you, wasn’t I?”

  Squeak rolled her eyes and squeaked something else at her, with the other girls watching with amused smiles while Daniel had a curious expression on his face. Jacqueline then giggled and shook her head.

  “She’s not sure why you tried to help that child, but feels that it wasn’t for her own wellbeing,” she relayed.

  “How dare you say that! I’m being the good person here and-” Falla started to argue before Squeak stood up and began squeaking at her sternly while pointing to her, the group watching as she said something with a very firm tone while Falla watched her with confusion. After Squeak finished Jovian nodded then shrugged at Falla.

  “Good person or not,” Jovian relayed. “The only reason she was offering you such a privilege of sleeping next to Daniel was because you could help her talk to him. Now that she’s found those who wouldn’t try to take Daniel’s pants off while he’s asleep, she feels they are the better choice over you. If you don’t like that, then you can just leave.”

  Falla growled with anger before Triska chuckled and nodded in agreement.

  “I’d say they’re the much better choice over her,” she commented.

  “Yes,” Specca agreed. “I have no problem with both of them joining Squeak for the night at all.”

  Falla looked to them with discontent and waved to the sisters.

  “Why? Just because they’d rather have sex with a girl than a guy?”

  “That is a very big reason why, yes,” Alyssa replied dryly.

  Falla growled furiously before Squeak walked up to her and pointed at her again, pushing her finger against the butterfly girl’s chest with stern squeaks. Falla looked at her nervously then glanced to the sisters who smiled amusedly at her.

  “She says if you truly want their help with finding your sister, then you will drop this right now,” Jovian conveyed.

  Falla looked to Squeak’s finger then to the ant girl who was watching her with narrowed eyes. After a moment she grunted then pushed the girl’s hand aside.

  “Fine,” she grunted. “That’s the last time I try to do you any favors.”

  “Then it’s settled,” Triska said with a stern smile. “Jovian and Jacqueline will be Squeak’s interpreters for the night, and Falla can sleep out here with Lucky.”

  “What?” Falla barked out at her. “Why am I sleeping out here with the horse?”

  Specca smiled calmly and adjusted her glasses as she glanced to the caravan.

  “Because Jovian and Jacqueline will be sleeping inside,” she informed factually. “And with Daniel and Squeak having their own area along with all of us sharing the rest of the cabin it may get a little crowded. Not to mention we’ll all feel better if you sleep outside anyway.”

  “Leaps and bounds more so than with her sleeping right next to Daniel,” Alyssa commented flatly.

  Falla clenched her fists with anger as she growled while Daniel nodded slowly in agreement, feeling more relieved about just spending the night with Squeak rather than her and Falla together. The sisters giggled and smiled at the group.

  “Thank you for your kindness,” they both said together in perfect unison.

  Falla blinked then glanced to them cautiously.

  ‘Something about them… seems familiar.’

  Squeak smiled at Daniel and quickly rushed over to him, taking hold of his arm and tugging him towards the caravan. The boy laughed a bit as the other girls watched her with dull expressions.

  “Okay, okay, we can go inside now,” Daniel said as Squeak happily squeaked at him.

  “Daniel?” Alyssa asked sweetly. The boy looked to her as she walked up to him with an innocent smile. “Can I get a goodnight kiss from you before you go? Please?”

  Squeak looked at her with a frown then to the other girls as Specca and Triska stood up and smiled curiously at the boy.

  “If I may, I would also like one as well,” Specca said timidly.

  “Would it be alright if I could have one too?” Triska asked softly.

  Daniel looked around at them with a nervous smile then to Squeak, the ant girl rolling her eyes then looking away with a shrug as she reluctantly let go of him.

  “Well, I guess that would be fair if-” he started before Alyssa hopped up and kissed the boy with a loving sigh, holding onto her staff to keep her up high enough while she had her other arm around his neck. Squeak glanced back to her with an annoyed scowl as the witch obviously used her tongue in the kiss, with Daniel staring at her with surprise before she pulled back and giggled softly.

  “Thank you, I love you, Daniel,” she said before slowly lowering herself down, sliding her hand down his shirt to his waist before she gently r
an it off to the side with one finger. Daniel smiled a bit and nodded then looked to seeing Specca walking up to him. The nixie held onto his chest and kissed him, her tail gently swaying over and going around his thigh. The boy closed his eyes as he felt the girl rolling her tongue around his, not being sure if he should hold her or keep his hands at his sides like he was doing. After the kiss ended Specca smiled timidly at him with a small blush.

  “I love you,” she said before slowly backing up, her tail gently going around his thigh before letting go as well. Daniel smiled lightly at her and nodded slowly before looking to seeing Triska parting the two girls aside and walking up to him.

  “I love you too, so much,” Triska said softly before kissing and holding her arms around the boy’s neck. Squeak at this point was showing a very irritated scowl as she tried to be fair with the girls getting one last kiss for the night, while Falla was just watching the boy with a dull expression and her arms crossed. Specca and Alyssa watched with annoyance as well as Triska kissed Daniel deeply before she leaned in closer to his ear.

  “And I want to be your bad girl again, so much,” she whispered before leaning back and winking at the boy, with Daniel staring at her with wonder as she slowly let go and walked back away from him past the girls, her hips swaying a bit more than usual as she glanced back to him with a coy smile.

  “What did she say just now?” Specca asked looking back to Daniel. The boy watched as Triska smirked and wiggled her rear slightly before she began collecting the dishes from around the campfire.

  “Um… just… goodnight,” Daniel said with a nervous smile and shrug.

  Squeak huffed then grabbed his arm with a squeak, the boy looking to her as she tried pulling him towards the caravan again with a pout.

  “Okay, we can go in now,” he said with a small laugh.

  “Hold on, she can’t go yet,” Jovian said holding a hand up to the ant girl.

  The group looked to her as Squeak stopped in place and squeaked curiously.

  “Squeak, this is your date night with him, is it not?” Jacqueline questioned.

  Squeak nodded and pointed to Daniel then to the caravan while squeaking something. Jovian giggled and shook her head with an amused smile.

  “But you simply can’t go in there like that,” she said expectantly while gesturing to the ant girl. Squeak looked at her puzzled then down to herself as Jacqueline walked over and patted down the girl’s tunic, causing dust and dirt to come off in small puffs.

  “You are absolutely filthy, you can’t go on a date like this,” Jacqueline laughed.

  The group watched Squeak curiously as she checked herself over before looking at the sisters with a few squeaks. Jovian shook her head and walked over to her, taking hold of the ant girl’s hand while Jacqueline took hold of the other.

  “No no,” Jovian insisted. “If we’re going to have a part in this, then we’re going to do it right. And the first thing we need to help you with is getting you cleaned up, you dirty girl you.”

  Squeak looked down at herself then to Daniel as the boy was looking her over curiously as well.

  “Well,” he said rubbing the back of his neck. “She did get dirtied up a bit earlier helping us, but that’s alright. I know ant girls can get like that, I don’t mind how she is at all.”

  Squeak smiled softly at that before the sisters shook their heads in unison.

  “If this is a date then she needs to look her best, that’s all there is to it,” Jovian asserted.

  “There’s a stream just over the hill,” Jacqueline mentioned. “We’ll get her cleaned up while you get ready for your date with her.”

  Daniel smiled nervously to that as Squeak looked herself over curiously again. Triska, Specca, and Alyssa glanced to each other then to Squeak with concern.

  “Hey, if she doesn’t want to go then she doesn’t have to,” Alyssa said shaking her head.

  “Yeah,” Triska agreed with a weak smile. “So what if she’s dirty, that’s how ant girls can get, right?”

  “You don’t need to clean her up at all, she’s fine just the way she is,” Specca insisted with a few nods.

  “You just don’t want her looking any better for Daniel,” Falla commented flatly.

  A few moments later the butterfly girl tumbled to a crash on the ground with a grunt, having been thrown far away from the campsite by a magical force. Falla coughed out grass and dirt then looked back to seeing Triska, Specca, and Alyssa glaring at her.

  “You want us to help you find your sister or not?” Alyssa yelled out.

  “Not another word out of you for the rest of the night, Falla, not one more word!” Triska shouted out.

  The three girls then looked back to the others as Daniel was watching them curiously along with Jovian and Jacqueline while Squeak merely had a dull expression on her face.

  “So, off to bed with you two then, huh?” Alyssa urged with a nervous smile.

  Jovian and Jacqueline shook their heads then started leading Squeak away.

  “Come, Squeak,” Jovian politely insisted. “Let’s get you looking your best for your date.”

  “We’d better wash her hair really good, it’s so dirty,” Jacqueline giggled.

  As the three walked up the hill towards the stream on the other side Daniel looked back to the other girls, all of them smiling nervously at him now.

  “What was that about?”

  “Um… nothing, Daniel,” Alyssa replied shaking her head.

  “Nothing at all,” Specca said with a shrug.

  Falla trudged back over to them then spat out some more grass before looking at the girls with a scowl.

  “You people suck, you know that?”

  On the other side of the hill Squeak and the sisters walked over to a gently flowing stream, the water glistening slightly from the moonlight while the soft trickle of the current was all that was being heard nearby.

  “Okay, first thing’s first, we-” Jovian started before Squeak quickly took off her tunic and kicked her boots to the side, the sisters watching as she hastily pulled her underwear off then jumped into the stream with a splash. The ant girl tossed and turned around in the water before quickly running back out again. Before she could grab her clothes Jovian took hold of her hand and shook her head with a laugh.

  “Hold on,” she said playfully. “That’s not getting cleaned up, you silly girl.”

  “You need to actually wash yourself, you’re still dirty,” Jacqueline laughed.

  Squeak looked at them with concern then to the hill again with a few squeaks. The sisters led her over to the stream and set her down on a large rock on the shore.

  “We know,” Jovian said gently. “You want to get back to your date for the night. But if you really want to make this night count with him than you have to look your best.”

  Jovian gently scooped up some water then began scrubbing Squeak’s hair while Jacqueline was using some to wash the ant girl’s thighs and legs.

  “You wanted us to help you tonight, didn’t you?” Jacqueline reminded. “Then trust us, if you get all washed up and looking so pretty for him you’ll have a better chance at winning his heart.”

  Squeak smiled softly and looked back towards the hill, eager to return to her night with Daniel and hoping that he did indeed notice her more after this. The sisters washed the ant girl’s hair and body gently, both of them smiling kindly at the girl as they tried to clean off the dirt from her. As they did they went over her statuesque figure with hungry smiles, slowly licking their lips in anticipation for the ant girl’s flesh. Squeak looked at the hill with hopeful eyes and squeaked something, with Jovian glancing to her then back down to the girl’s large breasts with a cold smile.

  “Don’t worry, Squeak,” she assured gently. “I’m sure after this you’ll be much more noticeable to him.”

  Jacqueline nodded while washing Squeak’s thigh with both hands, almost seeming to caress the girl’s leg as her mouth watered slightly from looking at it.

  Chapter 12

  Getting to Know Her

  In the world of Eden many spoke the same language. Humans, and even monsters, knew how to speak or at least understand the language that was deemed ‘human’ throughout the world. However, not all spoke with the same tongue, and there were language barriers that could be met while traveling. For instance, some witches were known to mix human speech with their own dialect, which sounded like a twisted and haunting vocabulary. Others, like trolls, spoke mostly with foreign tongues, using very few if any human words. And some monsters only communicated with grunts, howls, or even squeaks rather than actual words at all. Still, sometimes even if there was trouble understanding someone due to a different language there were still ways of communicating with them all the same.

  After all, actions speak louder than words.

  *****

  Under the night sky Specca was watching the campfire burning with a distant gaze, the glow from the fire lighting up her glasses with a soft bloom while she seemed deep in thought about something. Next to her Triska was watching as Alyssa was forming a patch of soft bedding for Lucky to sleep on for the night, the witch using her magic to create a spot of folded grass and thin vines on the ground near the caravan. Alyssa waved her staff around precisely, causing the weeds and grass to grow and bend around at her will while she had a blank expression on her face. Next to her Lucky was standing and just looking around the area with a quiet grunt while Falla was sitting down on a patch of grass the witch had prepared for her.

  “I can’t believe you’re having me sleep out here with the horse,” Falla muttered as she looked to her ankle, seeing a green vine ensnared around it and rooted to the ground.

  Alyssa didn’t even glance to her while she focused on making her horse a nice place to sleep on for the night.

  “Again,” Alyssa replied flatly. “We’re helping you find your sister, aren’t we?”

  “Did you really have to tie me to the ground like this though? What if I have to pee in the middle of the night?” Falla snapped as she tried to loosen the vine around her ankle. Each time she pulled on it however it tightened more and tugged her leg towards the ground.
