I stretch my arms over my head. Then last night popped in my head. I opened my eyes and sat up. I was in the same room I was in when I first woke up when I first got here. There is a knock on the bedroom door.

"Annie, its Margo and Dawn, we are coming in." The door opens and they walk in. "Good morning, Annie." They both say.

"Morning" I say Then I feel something on my neck. I look down it is my mom's necklace. He gave it back to me. I smile.

"He gave it back to me" I say

"Yes, it was yours, he should never have taken it." She says then continues.

"This is your room." She says walking by me. "How are you feeling." She says putting her hand on my forehead.

"I'm fine, what do you mean my room."

"The king wishes you to stay in the castle." I can't help it, that pisses me off. I could care 2 fucks what the king wants.

"Yeah, I don't think so." I stand up a little wobbly. Dawn grabs my arm. "I am going back to my camper. This will never be my home." Dawn frowns.

"OK, but just know you will always have a room here." She says "Also remember the howling time is coming; it would be dangerous to stay in the camper when those come. During then you will need to move in the castle or to the village"

"My camper is pretty sturdy. I should be fine." I say

She looks at me, and shakes her head. "We are not trying to trick you. They are dangerous."

"When will that happen"

"4 months from now."

"If he never saw that picture, and learned I was innocent, he would have let me fend for myself. TO me nothing has changed."

"He would have stepped in; he would never allow danger to happen to those trapped by the curse."

"Yeah, ok wish I could believe you." I say. "You said I have time right."

"Yes, but not much. "Hopefully I will be gone by then.

I walk and open the door to the balcony. I forgot what a great view it was from this room.

"During those nights we close the gates to the castle and village. Once the sun goes down, they come out. "

"OK, well I guess I have to build a wall around my camper." I say

I looked at Dawn and her wings. Then an idea formed in my head. She could fly me up to the cliff, I can try the portal again.

"Can one of you fly me to the cave on top of the waterfall?"

"Why" They both say at the same time.

"The way out, if I could get through the portal and just run, I should be good." Dawn looked at me.

"What do you mean the way out is on top of the waterfall." I jump when I hear the king behind me. When did he get here.

"I made it through, but then that bitch threw me back in." I say. The king's face was unreadable.

"Wait you got out? I can't believe you made it out?" Dawn says.

"Yes, but then the person who put me here threw me back in." Dawn looks at the King.

"Someone threw you off the cliff." Margo says as her eyes go wide.

"Yes, that bitch that put me here." I reply Dawn, Margo and the king stare at me.

"I can't believe someone threw you off the cliff."

"If she can get out"

"So can everyone else." The king ended the sentence. The King still looked sad. "But we must not tell the others until we can confirm it."

"Of course." Dawn and Margo say with a smile.

Then he says "I'll make you a deal. I will fly you to the cave, if you do not make it through you must move into the castle." Why would he want to fly me up their or force me to move into the castle. I would rather someone else flew me there.

"Or Margo or Dawn can fly me up and if it is gone, I can still live in my camper."

"No, that is the deal. Either I fly you up or no one does. Then if there is no portal you move into the castle."

"Fine."
