Chapter 14

     I continue to move forward but I suddenly stop when in front of me was the man who kidnapped me and was called Michael. He was standing there clapping his hands. "Bravo, your highness. See, you can kill like hell, you kill them by yourself." He is talking when I shoot my gun at the back because someone was about to attack me, I exhale at his words and wipe the blood from my face, "You know, this only proves that I am no Queen. I am a fucking someone who happens to enjoy killing, not a Queen, so stop bothering me, and I will finish this by fucking killing you!" I said, but while looking at him, he suddenly started laughing, "What is so funny?" I asked then he stop laughing and said, "Your denial only proves who you are, your highness. But don't worry, people are seeing this now, Live." "What do you mean Live?" 

      I looked at my surroundings and saw that there are cameras in the building and in his chest, which is shit. Outside, I hear police car horns and royal guards marching. I don't know what to do anymore and I just have killed this guy, "Well, I am screwed and I apologize for all the people looking at this." I stand up and fix my broken shoulder, I gasp in pain and run towards Michael. I cover the camera in his clothes and slice his throat, what I did still was seen from the other angle of the camera. So, I shoot all the cameras around me and that is it. Outside the narrow road of this place, the police are probably outside waiting to arrest me or arrest them, but technically to arrest me. I don't really imagine that going back here again will cause me to be a target for a rebellion and that is not good, especially since all people will recognize me as the late Queen and as someone who enjoys killing. So, in order for me to escape this place I need to find another way. I look around and found nothing when I hear someone calling my title, "Your Highness." 

     I know I should not bother looking at it, but that is my only way out. So, I follow the voice and saw a man who shouts. I point the gun toward him and he said, "Don't worry your highness, I do not intend to bring you harm, but I am here to help." "Why should I trust you? There are other men who pulled me in here and look at what I got into. I am no Queen, and I will never be a Queen. I am just a tool for all of you people's play." I got a bit emotional and fall down, the wound in my body is still fresh and the blood falls out of my body. Then, the man tried to help but I still point my gun at him. "Please your majesty, my father will help you, we will help you." I still don't believe him and spit blood, "Who is your father?" 

     "He said that you know him because you already saw him." I tried remembering the people I saw today, the hotel clerk, the manager, the royal guards, and... the driver. "The driver, you mean Robert?" The young man was confused but he said, "Yes, please just trust me this time." I have no choice but trust him and I will just kill him when he did something else. But, before that, I have to burn everything about me here, "Wait, I know we don't have time, but I need to burn all the evidence about my identity." I try to find some matches but the young man said, "Don't worry about it, we already covered it." "How?"

      After I join him, a car is waiting for us, not just a car but a limousine. I don't want to get arrested and got tortured again so this is my only chance to get out of here alive. "Let's go!" I ride the car and look out the back door when I saw royal guards saluting at us. I don't understand what is happening but I have to know now that I am here. I look at the young man and said, "What is really happening here?" The young man looks at me and said, "The group that kidnapped you are having a rebellion against the royal family, they want someone to be the face of their organization. But when they saw pictures of the late Queen of Bretramia, they choose someone who have the same face as the Queen and make her the Queen, but in the past years all the people they find and locate were killed because they don't want to participate about it as well." "So, what you are saying is that I am one of the people who got kidnapped because of this freaking war!" 

     The young man was surprised because of my reaction, "Well, yes, your majesty." I look at him when he still said "Your majesty." "Can you please stop calling me that when we both know that there are other people who have the same face as the Queen," He got silent and looked out the window. When I look outside, I found myself that I am at the Queen's mansion. "What are we doing here? I thought you will help me. Did you also kidnap me to kill me?" I point the gun at the young man but so did the guards around us. 

     Then, outside the car, someone speaks, "Please you don't need to point guns at each other especially if you know that is against the order of the Queen." The guards point down their guns and walk outside, I look at who it might be and I saw Robert's face. I know it is not Robert but I said, "It's you... You look like him." The man smiled, "Yes I do believe that, your majesty." "Please stop calling me your majesty, I am no Queen." Then, while we are talking, someone interrupted us, "Please, Theodore, stop calling the lady that way and do as she wishes." "Your majesty, I apologize for just a force of habit." I look who it might be and, to my surprise, it is the Queen. I bow down and said, "Your majesty, please don't kill me, I don't intend to ruin the throne. I am just a tourist visiting your country." But the Queen look at me and just laugh, "Don't worry about it dear, I don't intend to kill you but I think we should talk about your identity." I looked at her and her face is calm. Maybe they do know about who I am, but how?
