(TW: MENTIONS OF BLOOD AND BEHEADEDMENT!)
Oh.My.God
How did they know who I was? I thought since I was only a townsperson, I wouldn't draw attention to myself, but only the person I was supposed to act as?! But then, I started to wonder how the carriage from days ago was here? wouldn't it still be in town? It would either be getting repaired or tomato's thrown at? "How did it even get here?" I said. I looked out the window and got my answer. I saw the countries national flag and I heard a gate closing behind me. I was finally there. I had made my way to the castle. We travelled into what seemed like a hidden passage, then park.
I heard the back being unloaded, then the wheels being taken off, wow, they didn't want me to get away huh? and then finally. Me.
"Welcome Mrs. Shier. You have been summoned for a task from the princess herself." one of the higher looking authorities say to me.
"Princess? The bluebloods that currently rule over Carimenta have no daughter?" I respond back in a cautious tone, thinking if I say something wrong, it'll cost me my head.
"Well..." he stutters a bit, "When she was born, she looked nothing like her parents, so they hid her in the shadows." he speaks as he wraps my arms around his, "And when she flourished and started looking like her parents, well... they couldn't just announce their daughter at 16 right? could you imagine?" he says with a laugh, "OH! and btw guys this is our daughter! she's 16 lol, we kind of forgot to tell anyone we gave birth to her!" He says while laughing his head aside.
I do laugh at the joke, it's funny. But, something isn't right... "well, if she started to look like them, wouldn't that be a good time to announce her to the community?" I ask.
"Yes, but... at the time they wanted to announce her, she got into her, teenager phase let's say. She started sneaking out of the castle to go meet some teenagers she met in the village, she started wearing sweats and tube tops instead of the required ballgowns and..."
"And?"
"Well one day when she was walking around the halls, she wasn't looking and one of the maids crashed into her..." he said. "Okay, well what's so bad with that?" I respond "well they started hanging out, the maid was paid extra to become her new personal assistant and... "
"they fell in love..."
"Okay that's fine? your point is?" I respond, thinking he's a little on the homophobic side.
*GORE!*
"When the king found out, he was furious, He wanted his daughter to marry one of the countries rich men or the child of a leader of a country, and when he found out they planned to run away and get married together..." he started hesitating, "What spit it out!" his hands clasped over his mouth "Tell me!" He started violently shaking his head. I remembered that the guard address me as queen so I said, "I ORDER YOU TO TELL ME!" I scream at the top of my lungs. "THEY WHIPPED HER HEAD OFF WITH AN AXE RIGHT INFRONT OF HER OKAY? HER HEAD WAS CHUCKED AT THE PRINCESS AS HER BLOOD SOAKED THE WEDDING DRESS SHE WANTED TO WEAR AT HER WEDDING! WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME?! The man screams as he falls to the floor, hand pulling his hair out of his head. I froze.
*GORE OVER!*
"oh no. oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no," he starts chanting. "What?! What's wrong? Two guards come and drag him away. Another man with a mask walks down the hallway and says, "just continue down then take two lefts, don't come back." he says. My curiosity gets the best of me, I look back, they had chained him to the wall and the man who told me to keep heading forward was armed, I could hear him screaming for me to help him. The doors close and separated us. I continued down the hall taking my first left. all I could hear was his blooded screams. Then it just stopped.
I took one final left, It was just a dead end? "Wha? did I make a wrong tuRRRNN WHOA! The floor let out from under me and I fell on a pile of hay.
I fell into a... very weird room? it had whiteboards, barres, flash cards, and at the top of the room there was an overhang with a throne on it, and what seemed like thousands of guards. but the weirdest thing... was the pin board covering the wall, it had written notes, mail letters, plans, airport tickets, luggage, dead flowers and... a picture... it had two girls on it, one of their faces covered up with red marker and... me? no wait my eyes aren't brown...
"So, how was your trip?~" a voice whispers from higher above. I whip around to see, Me? no, I look better than her, She looks like she hasn't slept in days, she had blood stains over her face and my eyes aren't brown...
"Surprised? I'm sure you are. My name is Erica Walten."
I stand, confused as ever. "Wait... I think that I'm supposed to be meeting with the princess?
The girl starts giggling in her seat "BAHAHAHAHA! You actually believed that? ahhhhh, it feels good to have a laugh." she says, "Okay, okay, I'm Alexis Leaven, I am your princess."
I freeze. That's the princess? I was gonna be beheaded. I didn't bow, I didn't respect her enough. I didn- "calm your nerves, jeez." Alexis says
"Well, you're probably wondering why you're here." she says as she begins to crawl onto the ledge and jump off to land right in front of me and says
"You my little doll..."
You're gonna play princess with this country...
While I'm going to leave this place!
