"there she is!"

There was a sudden urge to hold into the amulet that was being used as a broche. a hand soon rested on my shoulder. I quickly jumped up and whipped my head towards the figure that the hand owned to.

"Reine, was it?"
there stood the man I saw a few week earlier. he was at the market in the kingdom. his bandana sofly fluttered in the wind.

"uhh. yeah! Reine. you're...sapnap?"
I question back. he was about to answer but was inturuped by the other two finally catching up to him.
"sapnap! you shouldn't just run away like that. you could've got hurt! oh-uhh hello. you're Reine?"
I nodded at the man in the blue shirt. his rimmed glasses still sat comfortably on his head.

the last man emerged from the dark forest. my eyes drifted to the man in green. now that I think of it, he's a fucking green screen.
"green screen man? Green screen bitch, is that you?"
I quickly covered my mouth with my hands. that just slipped out.

the other two started laughing. dream's stare burned right through me. I don't think he liked the joke that much. After that, we all started to have a conversation while heading to the hardcore Kingdom again. it looks like we were all going to the same place anyways. dream didn't talk that much. he mostly kept his gaze on me.

on the other hand, the other two were very engaged into their conversation. sometimes dream would join in and joke around with them. I didn't talk. it was just a habit I did. I wasn't really allowed to talk in the presence of people. I was just like a decoration. nothing else.

"whats wrong, princess? you haven't talked much."
my whole body tenced once sapnap said princess. I fucking hated that pet name. it's stupid and gives me chills. it reminds me of who I was.

"don't fucking call me princess. and don't worry about me. its just a habit I gained while living with my family."
I was being very defensive yet open about my resonings.

I glance over at dream to see his gaze still on me. he must've saw me tense. we continued the walk and made it to the kingdom not long after. I clenched on my broche while we walked through the croud. I didn't feel comfortable around so many people.

they were just buying food again. I deicided on doing the same.
"hey Reine. why was there smoke and ashes where you were?"
George asked. I didn't know how to answer. I don't even know why I did it. it was just a sensation.
"I burned down my house."
"why?"
I just shrugged.

"I just wanted to. I can't get attached to anything."
I could see a small smirk from under dream's mask. dream pleasantly hummed and nodded at my answer. as I was distracted by listening into the three's discussion, there was trumpets. this was showing that the royals were walking passed. everyone moved to the side.

unfortunately, the four of us stood at the front of the line of separated people. the four royals started to walk down the path that everyone made for them. whispers bounced around the croud.

"Phil, I'm telling the truth! I was at nikki's bakery and there was this girl. she wore a red cloak and she covered her eyes. her hood was down and she had h/c hair! she even knew about me and Sally's relationship."
it was Wilbur. Wilbur whispered the last sentence.

the four of them scanned through the crouds that were separated. I backed up into George's chest. I looked up at him and he just chuckled a little. but that smile quickly got whipped away once he saw my worried face. then it started to hit him.

"wait. you're the one they are talking about? you were at nikki's bakery?"
you nodded. he was quick to put his arms over your chest for a small amount of protection and comfort.
"don't worry. it's going to be okay."
you nodded at his reassuring words.

Wilbur continued to look around the croud. his eyes soon met yours.
"you! Phil, look! I found them!"
your eyes widened at his words. I mean it was quite easy to find you. you were the only one wearing a red cloak.

everyone's eyes slowly went to look towards you. sapnap, dream and George started to look at you. George was the only one that looked worried, besides from you. while dream and sapnap looked confused like everyone else.

technoblade, Philza, Tommy and Wilbur starts to look at you. a guard quickly pulled you out of George's grasp and out of the croud. now everyone had a good look at you. the amulet started to illuminate a small amount of green. you quickly tried to hide the amulet with your hand. but it was already too late.

"who the fuck are you?"
Tommy asked. you were soon bombarded with questions after Tommy's. the whispering in the croud got louder. they were all talking about you.

"where did you get that broche?"
technoblade asked in a stern but monotone voice. I clenched on the broche as I froze. my lips parted but nothing came out.
"answer me!"
that was the first time he yelled in a long time. I obviously flinched at his sudden anger. I always did flinch but eventually tought myself to stop.

"take off your hood."
I hesitantly obliged to philza's demands. my h/l h/c hair flew in the slight breeze that came across. the sun perfectly shining on it.
"take off the cloth that covers your eyes."
philza demand again. I felt really uncomfortable.

everything froze once he said that. everyone stopped talking and stared right through me. their blazing eyes pircing my body.

"Reine, you don't need to do this if your not comfortable."
George spoke from the croud. he was the only noise at that moment.
"do it."
phil spoke again. why couldn't he just shut up.

I started to shake. his voice was still the same aggressive tone as it was before I ran away. I shut my eyes and slowly take off the cloth. it wasn't even me. it was like strings were attached to me. I didn't want to take it off. I tried to stop myself, but couldn't.

"open your eyes!"
Tommy yelled. it startled me. I flinched at his yelling. my feet slowly stepped backwards. I was quickly stopped by the guard that dragged me in the middle of the croud.
"open your ey-"
philza repeated Tommy but was quickly cut off by me.

"Phil, can you just shut the fuck up for once!?"

I didn't even realised that I said that. neither did I realised that I opened my eyes to finally look at them.
