Sophie looked around with suspecting eyes.

"Soph? What are you looking at?" Elizabeth asked Sophie

"I wonder what Howl will disguise himself" Sophie replied

The two passed by a group of crow.

"I'm sure he is not a crow" Elizabeth said

Sophie and Elizabeth continued their journey and walked pass by the central plaza.

"I'm sure Howl is not that, he's too flamboyant to disguise like that" Sophie said

Old age is really setting in her...

Elizabeth sweat-dropped at the idea of Sophie acting like a grandmother.

*swoosh*

A flying transport flied pass them and Sophie deadpanned at the transport.

"That could be him" Sophie said

"After all he's a womanizer" Elizabeth added, her tone did not go unnoticed by Sophie.

It was like Elizabeth is sad at the fact, who would be happy to find out that your partner is a womanizer?

Sophie would confront Elizabeth about this later.

The two continued walking as they pass the gate of Kingsburry.

"Look at how far we still have to go" Sophie slightly complained

Elizabeth looked around, it is not her first time here. But still she feels overwhelm with how much wealth do the people lives in the kingsburry.

The two continued their way not minding the rich people walking or boarding the air transport.

*choo*

The dog made a sound and then followed the two best friends.

Sophie eyed at the dog with a suspicious glance. While Elizabeth do not entirely trust the dog.

"Howl? You disguise yourself as an old dog?" Sophie asked in her disbelief tone

"Oh come, Howl. I know you can do much better than that" Elizabeth added

Sophie lectured the old dog about how hard to do things when a person is old, Elizabeth tried her best not to laugh at the scolded session of Sophie.

"Looks who are here! The tacky little girl from the hat shop and the single little girl from down town" The witch of the waste greeted

"The witch of the waste" the two ladies said at the same time.

"Thank you for sending my regards to Howl" The witch added

"How he's doing by the way?" The witch asked

"He's acting like a big baby" Elizabeth started

"And he keeps me working to the bone as a cleaning lady" Sophie added

"How delightful" The witch replied

"Plus he's married already" Elizabeth smirked

"What?!" The witch exclaimed

"To who!" The witch demanded

"To me." Elizabeth replied

The witch did tried to curse Elizabeth with the same curse on Sophie but then again, Howl have put a protection spell on her.

The witch shrug off as she lose but did not still give up on Howl.

"So tell me, what business do you have in the palace?" The witch asked
