I was being fitted.

It was horrible. Never have I been in so much pain. I have been jabbed with a needle at least ten times. I have been poked and prodded and this corset I am wearing is practicly suffocating me.

Ouch. I thought as Elle stabbed me in the back with a pin.

"Oh, I am so sorry Cassie. This must hurt tons." Elle said as she picked up a roll of fabric. You don't say. I thought. I didn't say it though. I just nodded. These girls where lifesavers and I decided I would try to be as nice to them as possible.

Julie unlaced the bodice and pulled it off of me. Leaving me shirving in just a tank top and underwear. Avery handed me a robe. I was standing in a stool in my room. It was two in the afternoon and I haven't even had lunch. I was starving. The royals weren't at breakfast today and I found that weird considering it was our first day here.

My maids were trying to get measurements for my costume done. They had started on the basic body of it and it was already looking great. I quickly changed back into my green day dress and my heels. Threw on my necklace and pinned back my stray hairs.

"Julie I am going to the women's room" I said as I opened the door. "Come get me if you need me." I closed the door and walked quickly to the room. There where three people there. Lynn, Breanna, and Allie. They where all sitting in different corners of the room. Breanna was reading a book called My Sisters Keeper. Allie was writing in a journal. Lynn was sitting in front of the TV watching a old looking TV show. It had a guy in a beige trench coat and blue tie and the other one who was extremely attractive with green eyes, he was holding a gun.

I debated what to do but eventually I walked over to Allie and sat down beside her.

"What are you writing?" I asked. I looked at the book and gestured towards it.

"Oh... Its kind of silly but... Its a diary. I know. I know. There for little kids but when I am older I want to be able to look back and see what I did. Who I was." She looked at me. I could see what she ment. She looked at me.

"I know what you mean. Hey I was wondering if maybe you want to look around with me if your not doing much. It might be fun. Let's explore." I sounded like a child but I really wanted too.

"Okay... But let's try to stay out of trouble." She said smiling. She set down her journal and we walked over to Lynn.

"Hey Lynn do you want to go look around with us? We were thinking it might be fun to do as friends." I said. She smiled at me and got up.

"Then what are we waiting for losers?" She said smiling at us.

We walked over to Breanna and soon the four of us where leaving.

We walked down a flight of stairs and swung a left down a corridor. We kept walking until we found a large pair of double doors. We went threw them to find the most beautiful garden you've ever seen. There were statues and a rainbow of different colored flowers. There were benches and ivy arch ways. There were bushs in all different shapes and sizes.

We wandered. After awhile we were all sitting on a bench talking.

"Did you here that?" Lynn asked. We all went quiet and listened.

"I say we go in threw the back door and see if we can find it there." Said a man.

"Shhh be quiet there could be someone out here." Said a different man. I turned around and peered threw a bush. I saw three men all holding guns. They looked dirty. One looked Asian. Another had dark skin and the other had super pale skin. They where covered in dirt and they had on black t-shirts and dirty jeans. They were all wearing worn looking leather boots and I knew one thing for sure. They were rebels.

"There rebels." I said a bit to loudly. They turned there heads and in seconds we where surrounded. They had there guns pointed at us.

"Ah. Look its some selected. I think that one-" he pointed at Allie. "-is named Allie. She's my favorite of the selected. She's pretty." He said. That scared me a bit. The way he said it like she was some sort of prey. "That ones Lynn, the one with the hair." Lynn made a face like she wanted to kill something. I was feelimg the same way. "That ones Breanne or Bre or Breanna something like that." He said it with easily. Like he was above her in someway. "The last one, the ugly one. That's Cassie." He looked at me and siad it forcefully like he needed me to know that i wasnt as pretty as the others. He said it to make me feel bad. This was all said by the pale one, let's call him... Rebel #1. He pointed as he said our names.

I looked around. I remember reading somewhere that if you run you have a 99% chance of not getting shot. Especially if you run in a zig zag pattern. With that in mind I ran. I slipped under the gun held by the asain one (ha can be #2 and the other can be #3) and ran towards the woods I could see in the distance. Allie was right behind me. Breanna was running in direct of the castle. Where was Lynn?

I turned she was on the ground. It looked like she was knocked out. Rebel #1 chased Breanna and rebel #2 was after me and Allie. #3 had his gun trained on Lynn.

We kept running. Once we where in the forest allie had me scramble up a tree. She whispered to me the plan.

"I can't leave you alone down there." I said. "It will be fine I promise." She said. I looked at her and she seemed sincere. I crawled on to the first branch. I ducked behind leaves and hung my heels from one of the branches. Allie stood under me clutching the tree. This was going to take perfect timing. I could see rebel #2 about ten feet away. He was running. I poised.

I jumped, landing on his back. Allie cane out from behind the tree and kicked him square in the face with her heels. He fell to the ground knocked out. Man was that going to leave a bruise.

Oh and the slide is Cassie's outfit. If you want to look at that. Thanks for reading. Byeeeee.
