                  "Hey! Where are you taking me?"
  "To the castle my lady, or should I say, my queen~"
____________________________________

You are held onto tight by two guards, while one prepares a carriage. "Let go of m-!" you are placed and locked in the carriage with one of the guards as he throws you in in a delicate yet strong way. The guard then takes off their helmet and begins to pull out a tray full of only the finest food and drink.

  After a few minutes of reasonless screaming and begging to be let out, you have given your white flag. you sit down for a minute and look at the rows of food in front of you. "Ooooo these look good. Can I eat this or will I be charged my entire family's fortune for this?" The guard laughs and says, "pfft- you are our highest authority, our symbol of hope. And, you're our queen, take whatever interests you and would catch your attention ma'am"

You decide to take a flaky treat, which you later find out is a baklava, (A flakey pastry dessert with layers of honey, cinnamon, nuts, etc)
"It looks really weird, is it goin- hey wait... is that dad? I think it is..?! Hey! That's my dad! I want to see him!" The guard closes the curtain on the carriage "Who? Ah that man on his steed. How about you forget about him? In fact, forget about your mother, forget about your commoner life. You are now the daughter of Queen Eleanor and King Alexander." The guard says as they slowly start to drape the curtains over the window facing your father.

"But- I'm not! I'm the daughter of Alexa and Neil Shier, not some rich, powerful royals!" Suddenly, the carriage begins to shake, you were moving. You look out the back window to see your mother helping your father off his horse, and hear, "Where is my little girl?" As he begins to look for you as you slowly get taken away. 

"You have a long journey to the castle my queen, I recommend you get comfortable." You grab some pillows and curl up into a ball, "Will I ever see my dad again?"
