I grew up listening to a story. In that story there were villains and heroes. Like any story out there. For years, I believed and swore loyalty to the people who told me, and to those I thought were the heroes. But after I got older, I learned that...

The cafeteria was full and noisy as usual. My focus is on Stella and Sky who were showing the rest of the girls a map. Stella's attitudes irritating me more and more. She is becoming more arrogant and thinks that people should do everything she wants just because she is the queen's daughter. Luna is creating a miniature monster of her.
Already tired of just looking, I go down from the second floor towards them. Bloom gets up and leaves. I noticed the way Sky looked at her. The way the two look at each other.
There's something there.
Soon Sky goes after Bloom leaving Stella behind.
When she went to turn around, she almost bumped into me. Realizing it was me, her body tensed and held her breath. Her emotions were a mess of fear and nervousness.
"Do I need to drag you, or will you walk on your own?" I ask in a low voice not wanting to draw more attention. The other students looked and whispered. I look around before turning around hearing Stella follow me.
I lead her to a classroom that was empty. As soon as I closed the door Stella started trying to explain herself. I raised my hand in a signal for her to be quiet.
"I don't want to hear a single sound coming out of you right now" Stella swallowed hard. Knowing she had crossed the line "You're gonna sit your ass in that chair and listen in silence"
After she sat down I stopped in front of her with my hands on the table.
"I still can't believe what you did yesterday Stella. Jealousy. Out of jealousy you lent Solaria's ring, a crown jewel that was under YOUR responsibility" she had her head down and was silent as I commanded. "If I hadn't arrived in time, Bloom would be dead. Do you have any idea of what that means? Can you understand that? She could be dead and that's because of your stupid, childish jealousy. Sky is not an object. He's a person. Try to grow awareness and responsibility in that hollow head of yours. And don't forget common sense" I sighed straightening my posture "You're the oldest Stella.You should guide and be mature. I know you're only seventeen, but you need to grow up a little in here" I point to her head.
"Verena I'm sorry" She tried to say.
"It's not me you have to apologize to Stella. It's the girl who almost died yesterday."
Thinking I've said enough for now, I head for the door leaving her to her own thoughts. But before getting out, I turn to her again.
"You better stay inside this school and don't risk anyone's life for YOUR mistake. As soon as I can, I'll get that damn ring"

I look around making sure I was alone before entering the east wing. A few seconds later I find the closed room.
