"H-how long do I have to wear this?" Shiro whimpered, it was a brace that physically suppressed her spine. They were stopping her growth forcefully, through this painful accessory and pills to close her growth plates. "Until the plates are completely closed Shiro, you know this already." The Queen replied, an edge to her voice. She had already answered Shiro's question three times. It was clear that there was something wrong with the little girl, she seemed almost incapable of learning. The Queen's patience was beginning to wear thin. While Shiro could do simple addition, read, and write, which was more than all the Rubbles combined, it was her duties that she proved most incompetent in. She was far too clumsy, had no sense of style, and made far too much a mess.
"Oh Shiro, you poor little thing." The Queen tsked when she failed at making the bed properly again. The other servants talked about her behind closed doors, that Shiro was far too naive, that she would never be a suitable servant. Shiro tried to ignore them, but at night, she couldn't help but worry about if they were right. "Shiro, I have a gift for you." The Queen smiled, seeming so benevolent and beautiful in the light of the early morning. "A gift? For me?" Shiro asked, her eyes sparkling. She never received gifts, unless the spine brace and pills were considered presents. "Yes, it's very special. It was made just for you," the Queen took out a box wrapped in red paper. Shiro was careful to open it, removing the bow and folding the wrapping paper carefully. The Queen was watching her with a measured gaze, gauging her reaction.
"It's a dog collar?" Shiro asked, a bit confused. "No, not a dog collar," the Queen lifted it out of the box, it was pink with a gold bow on it, her name engraved into the tag. "It's a special training collar," a special training collar? "Oh," she did not understand what it meant, but she hoped it was a good thing. It was only an hour later that she discovered its true purpose. Each time she did badly, the collar would administer a shock. "Think of it as motivation to be better." The Queen said, stroking her head as she cried, the electricity making her body twitch. "With this, you will become the perfect lady in waiting. No dinner tonight, alright?" Shiro nodded, going to bed hungry.
The next morning came another surprise. "Shiro, the Doctor is waiting for you." Shiro nodded, following, still in her night gown. She was wearing the brace and her new collar, trudging behind the Queen, barefoot, sleepy. They gave her medicine that put her to sleep quickly and she awoke in horrible pain. "She will have to remain here for several days, it is not an easy recovery." The Doctor spoke in soft words, the Queen standing over the bed, her arms crossed. Shiro feigned sleep, in far too much pain to ask what had been done. "Uterus removal is a serious surgical procedure my Queen."
Shiro awoke with a start. The Princess had an arm around her, holding her. She blinked twice, wondering what had happened and stiffening when she realized the Queen was there. "G-good morning! I apologize, I did not see you!" She tried to curtsy, but she realized that Princess Narisia had her arms wrapped around her middle, hugging her like a stuffed toy.
