Chapter 6 by Brickhouse Brickhouse

Does anything interesting happen on the way?

Nothing out of the ordinary...relatively speaking

Meril was starting to suspect that the lack of negative interactions, apart from tall blonde and bitchy of course, might be to do with her being an unknown quantity. Nobody recognised her, so there was every chance people were waiting for word to get around first, quietly waiting on the sidelines like vultures to a carcass. Meril frowned lightly at her being the carcass in this situation.

At the very least the town hall came into view, a larger building than most around it, surrounded by a decently sized park, which helped make it look even bigger. The style of the structure was certainly older than the rest, stone pillars were in place to support the roof and walls, red brick walls, dark slate tiles for the roof. Apart from it's size the building looked rather modest, three floors high, or two tall floors high and enough space for it to have offices and a hall area large enough to contain the whole town.

Vaguely impressed, the nude brunette cut across the park to get to the hall, the grass surprisongly soft given the summer conditions. Her bare soles were tickled with each footstep, the sensation each time was a firm poke, demanding she focus on her nudity. Biting her lip she regretted going for the grass, but was too far to turn back now and practically skipped to the other side. Feet back on solid concrete Meril was now feeling rather silly, skipping in her state of undress, it was impossible to ignore how much her boobs jiggled...

Shaking her head she continued up a set of steps leading to the front door, given the classical nature of the building she was getting vibes of being led to be judged for her crimes, to be flogged or stuck in a stockade to get fruit thrown at her. The thought made her chuckle as she pulled the door open, slipping inside. The town hall lobby seemed to emulate the same style as the exterior, except much cleaner. There were classical wall decorations, wooden beams about the place. One detail she'd noticed through her feet though was the floor. It was made up of perfectly smooth black and white marble tiles, in a sort of checkerboard pattern, they were cold to the touch, not an issue for the regular person, but to someone as naked as she was...

Meril pulled herself together, trying to ignore how hard her nipples probably were at the moment as she headed off to her right, towards a quaint looking reception desk in the corner of the room. A middle aged lady manned the desk, her hair a faintly greying dark brown, wrinkles creeping in onto her face. She seemed rather distracted with her work on the computer, one that seemed twenty years out of date, but Meril wasn't exactly a technophile herself so she wasn't going to judge.

"Excuse me I was told this is a place I can look into getting a job?" The nude woman asked, leaning to the side a little and flashing a genuine smile.

The receptionist unfortunately seemed a little less than cooperative "Job listings can be found on our website" She stated plainly, not looking up from her work. Meril at least was thankful that another 'I'm just a nudist' interaction would happen so soon. The younger woman loitered for a moment longer, before noticing a cork noticeboard on the wall behind the receptionist.

One item on there was a sort of wanted sign, there wasn't a reward listed or anything though. 'Wanted: Supposed Witch Coven' Now this just got Meril curious, first Kara jokes about witches then there's a wanted poster on the town hall noticeboard about a coven of witches. There seemed to be more text underneath, mostly just the boring details, but then a part stuck out to Meril 'Suspects Appear To Be Young Women Early To Late 20's And Have Only Been Seen Nude'

"The uh, witches..." She began, not quite sure where she'd take this "Anyone know where they are?" Meril asked in about as casual a way as she could.

The receptionist just shrugged "Nobody knows, they hang out in the woods at night" Okay that's one shred of data.

"Yeah but where in particular? So I can avoid them extra well y'know" Meril smirked at the sheer smoothness of her questioning.

Once again she was greeted with a shrug "It's a different place each time, law enforcement are really lazy with arresting them. To be fair they're never naked in town, that'd be crazy"

"Y-yeah, pretty crazy" Meril chuckled awkwardly "Anyway I should be going..." She wasted no time leaving, slipping out through the door again, almost literally with how smooth the floor was. Back outside Meril grumbled quietly to herself, lazily padding barefooted along the park pathway. She'd attempted to get a job and been met with essentially 'don't you just use an app?' Which wasn't the most helpful answer in the world. On the other hand she'd dug into these witches a little more, finding out they were indeed the 'naked and goat' kind. Well, she wasn't sure about the goat part yet.

Letting out a sigh she carried on walking, figuring her next destination was back to the post office again, that or walking home. With her watch in her phone and her phone in her purse, she was relying on estimated time, guesswork, assumption. Something that surprisingly is rarely accurate, Meril was a teacher so she had a degree of in built timekeeping, but that was usually linked to the kids growing more excited when lunch came around. Here, with no allies or equipment, or even frame of reference she now realises she just might be screwed.

Meril contemplated breaking into a light jog, she needed to make the meet up. But at the same time if she started running around then she'd be tired if she needed to walk. So she kept going at a respectable pace, on the brink of power walking. Thoughts sped through her mind as she got closer to her goal, what if she was late? What if Kara had driven off with her things? What if Kara wasn't as trustworthy as she thinks. Meril bit her lip at that, the thought of being betrayed and stranded naked...it didn't excite her, but it made this game a bit more interesting.

Does Meril make it back in time?
