"Then share his punishment," the chieftan stated, taking up position infront of Steel, holding his hand out for a sipilarily fashioned weapon Lapis was now holding. Two guards moved in besides them and forced her down on her knees, putting a wooden log infront of her, pushing her down on it. They also took the weapon from her.
Both the chieftan and one of the guards, with a soft whizzing of the thin sticks, prepared for giving the punishment. It was than that Steel shot in action, grabbing the wrist of Lapis' assailant, at the same time, going to grasp at the chieftan's throat and raising him from the ground. "Fuck if they're hurting you," he snarled.
