The servants were dismissed being told to meet in the ballroom in the morning for farther instructions.

Kagome sighed and looked at Kikyo, “I guess we need to go speak with the head cook.”

Kikyo nodded then jumped when she heard a roll of thunder and saw a flash of lightning. They both sighed as they made their way to the kitchens. They opened the door to see an old woman with an eye patch rushing the others around as she was cooking in her own pot. They decided that this was defiantly the head cook.

Kikyo cleared her throat, “Excuse us.”

The woman looked up, “What do you want?”

Kikyo recoiled but Kagome was in no mood, “What is your name?”

The woman growled, “My name is Aoi now what do you want?”

Kagome cleared her throat, “Well Aoi I am Lady Kagome and this is Lady Kikyo we came to ask you why no one wished to volunteer to decorated the dining hall because of you?”

Aoi’s eyes widened in shock, “Forgive me my Ladies for my rude behavior. As to why no one wished to do it is because the last time they did no one cleaned it up and it was left to the kitchen staff to do. Since we had to clean it the meals where not done when they where suppose to be and it angered the Lords. That is why everyone is scared to volunteer to do it.”

Kagome nodded her understanding with a smile, “Well I need thirty volunteers for this task could you think of anyone that would wish to lead a group to do this?”

Aoi was quite for a few moments, “I know who would be perfect for this job he will make sure it gets done and that it is cleaned up afterward. His name is Hiro he is most likely in the stables right now.”

Kagome and Kikyo gave her a bright smile thanking her then left.
