When we had finished we were really happy to see that she was still alive or so that she was breathing as if she was sleeping. We took her to her old room where we made sure that she was going to get healthcare.Now we had to wait for a bit.

Modesty POV:As time passes by I started to feel the warmth of where I was. At first I couldn't open my eyes nor so move any parts of my body. So I tried to think about what happened. All I could remember was the bomb raid at school, leaving the safe area to save some young girl locking the door the bomb on the laboratory and then the frost coming all around me and now I was feeling warmth. It was odd. I felt like I slept for years and yet I was still sleepy.
After some times, I heard a door open and by the sound of the footsteps I guessed there was two people now with me. They came near me to check me and then I heard them sit down opposite to where I was. The first man talked:
« Do you think what we did was wrong? »
« No we tried our best, maybe it will take more time. She seems stable enough to survive » an other man answered.
« Even if she woke up what would we tell her? Nothing is like before now. She will recognize no one here »
« Yes but we are here for her she is a symbol for the 3rd war, do you think it will be hard? »At this sentence I could for the first time open my eyes. My eyes tried to adapt to the light and when they did I was surprised to see that I was in my old room from even before the war. The bed seemed new and it was a really princess like room. Grand and chic. Flower on the wall that I wanted when I was younger. I looked by the window to see that the outside seemed ever more peaceful than before the war. I then looked over to the couch to see 2 man about my age and one looking exactly like my brother talking. I was so silent that they didn't payed attention to me so I was able to listen to their conversation.
« How do you think that we are gonna tell her when she will wake up. If she ever wakes up? »
« I don't know, we will see at the moment »
« no but seriously do you imagine telling her that she slept for more than 2 hundred years that I'm literally her descendant and so that the war is over and the world she used to know is not the one she is living in now »
I was shocked. I gasp. I couldn't believe it.
« I slept for more than two hundred years how on Hearth is that possible? » I thought out loud
They turned to me their mouths wide open and their eyes like they had seen a ghost.
"Mathieu pinch me. I need to know if I am dreaming or not."
"Are you dreaming cause if yes me too" Mathieu said while pinching the other boy arms.
"Aiiiiii it hurts. Okay we're not dreaming"
They started to come closer to me and so to move towards the bed I was laying on.
" Who are you and what are you doing in my room" I ask confused.
They looked at me, eyes wide open and jaw falling to the ground.
" you just woke up and you heard me saying that you slept for over 2 hundred years and all you think of asking is who we are and not what happened or anything you're quite something Modesty."
I turn to the boy who was talking with the darkest look I could nodding my head just to force him to introduce himself. He let a sight.
"I'm Joris and I'm currently 17 and we can say that I'm your great great great great nephew from your brother Romann"
"And this is?" I asked with a poker face even though I was shocked.
"I'm Mathieu, one of Joris best friends we don't have any family link we just grew together. I'm a chemist and I got you out of your glass jail"
" and how do you know who I am??" I ask
"You became an symbol during the war after your sacrifice. Everyone knows you even though some doesn't get to see you."
"Oh. And may I ask how did the war ended?"
"Oh yes you can. Soon after the raid, Romann decided to change camp. The school then started to work for Asia, who was wining from far above. After the war, a new country was created and everything changed. Asia put a Queen and a King on the new country, the golden empire. Every student from the school got put in the highest class of the new society. Our family became duc and duchess your brother was one of the confident of the king and your sister started to work as a mode designer."
"She always wanted to do that" I smiled.
" so now that I answered your question Mathieu is gonna inspect you to make sure that everything is alright and while he is doing that I'm gonna call your maid so that you can have something to eat and to clean you up and maybe to get you dressed up. I will see you".
Joris left. I couldn't help but think he looked just like my brother I smiled to myself at least i have someone to relay on. Mathieu checked everything making sure that I was not in any health danger as I asked him few stuff most about this society. Two minutes before he finished a girl about my age came in with some treat she said hello and proceed to introduce herself. Her name was Mary she was a year older than me and she was my maid. She then put herself in a corner. Mathieu and her got some eyes contact while he was finishing.
"Mary. I said gently. Make yourself at home in this room you can sit on the couch if you like plus don't call me madame or anything cause first I'm younger than you and secondly I don't like it. Have you finished Mathieu?"
I watch Mary who was shocked waiting for Mathieu to finish.
" I'm done Modesty. I'm gonna report everything to Joris in his office and when you will have finished getting ready Mary will take you to his office so that Joris can make you visit the place." He said while walking toward the door. "Don't worry everything is in order, your heart is a bit slow but there is nothing to be scared of so it's okay." He then left leaving me with Mary.———————————————————————————
