August was sitting on her throne half asleep listening to the villagers' urges and begs.
Woman: (Please! My crops are dying! I need your power!)
David: (As I have told you many times ma,. Our power has no growing plants in them.)
August: (You have to leave now. We can't do anything about your problem.)
The woman fought as two knights dragged her out of the castle. August sighed and almost fell asleep until—
Knight: (SIR! A message from King Cael, Sir!)
David stood up. August woke up from her sleep and was confused. August looked at David as he opened the letter. August almost fell back asleep until David started shouting again.
David: (AUGUST! Read this for us!)
August: (Damn! I was half asleep and now reading a letter. Dear lord.)
(Letter)
Dear King David,
GUESS WHAT BITCH! IT'S FALL! The war is where it was last time when your fucking sister killed my army!
The date will be in more than two days so calm the fuck down. Anyways, the date will be around... 11-02-1832. I know you all do a Hallows Eve Fest. So, I thought maybe after because "It's being nice" says my knights and healers.
See you soon King David.
From,
King Cael of rosemary
(End of Letter)
August: (Shit! I forgot about the war and it's fall already! No wonder why it was so cold this morning.)
David grabbed the letter out of her hands and walked away. August sat there alone.
August: (HEY! YOU CAN'T LEAVE ME HERE WITH THESE GUYS AGAIN! NOT THIS TIME BITCH!)
August ran after David. August stopped running and started walking behind David. She then turned around and a Soul Bringer faded into the ground. Before it came back in front of David she stopped him and put the poison on the floor. The Soul Bringer raised then a high pitch scream came from its ghost-like mouth.
David and August covered their ears as the screaming faded away.
August's thoughts: (This is getting really annoying. That dumbass really needs to stop. Before I make the Soul Bringer bring me to him!)
David and August uncovered their ears and stood still for a few seconds then David walked away, leaving August alone in the hallway. August walked into her room seeing Miko played with some toys with Kelly. August smiled and walked into her closet.
August came back out into a blue sparkly dress. The kingdom's colors were always blue and gold. August really didn't like the gold part but she thought it was still pretty together. She put on her crown and picked up Miko
August walked back into her closet and brought out another blue and gold dress but smaller. Just the right size for her Miko.
Miko put on the dress and spun around making the dress make beautiful waves. Kelly clapped while watching Miko spin around. August stops Miko and puts on her crown.
August: (You look like a beautiful queen, Miko.)
Miko: (Really?)
Kelly: (The most beautiful princess I have ever seen.)
Miko smiled and hugged August then hugged Kelly. August and Kelly held Miko's hands as they walked down the hall. They headed out of the castle and into the market.
