"a-athanasia.." he said as his shaky hands brought her lifeless body into his arms.
his dear sister athanasia had been executed by their father because she just wanted love from her family. her father of course
he brought his hands to caress her hair "please wake up..don't leave me i promised.." he sobbed
"i promised mother i'd protect you even if it meant i'd die first." he cried out as he hugged her tightly
to athanasius it'd looked like she'd been sleeping peacefully but deep down he knew she was gone.
"i-i'm sorry athanasia..i didn't protect you..i'm so sorry.." he cried as he rocked her back and forth
he then gently laid her down on the carpet and walked to his sword and picked it up before returning near her
his eyes held no emotion as he directed the sword towards his stomach "i have nothing left to live for." he'd said as tears rolled down his face
"i have no meaning to become emperor anymore i..i have no meaning to keep on living...my dear sister i'm sorry i couldn't protect you." he said looking at her body
he smiled "with this..i can be with you again and we can continue to dance and have tea together can't we?" he smiled at the thought

he nodded "we will of course we will.." he then pushed the sword into his stomach and collapsed onto the ground beside his sister
with the little strength he had left he reached for her hand and held it "d-don't be s-s—scared athanasia i'll protect you.." he said as his eyes felt heavy
he smiled as a tear fell from his eyes one last time.

5 years later
a slightly taller white haired boy had been seen sitting up in his bed as his forehead was drenched in sweat.
"that was quite a terrifying nightmare.." he sighed as he pushed his bangs away from his forehead
ariella his nanny opened his two doors and embraced him in a tight hug "good very morning prince!" she had beamed
he had smiled forgetting about the nightmare he'd had "good morning ariella..did you rest well?" he asked her
ariella quickly nodded "yes my prince! did you sleep well?" she asked him
athanasius nodded and smiled "i did somewhat of course.." he mumbled the last part
ariella then pulled away from him and walked over to the curtains to open them, letting the bright sun in.
