"Queen! Queen waking!"
"What the hell is this thing saying?"
"Queen!"
"I am about to let it's head magically fall between my jaws as I close them."
"I won't tell her, if you don't."
What the heck? I moaned and tried to turn over but ended up feeling iron locks hold me in place. "She is waking. Vanish, come on. Open your eyes for us, Vanish."
I opened one eye, confused beyond belief. I saw darkness and it took several seconds before my eye started to adjust and I saw a handsome boy above me next to a big wolf and a little critter with perky ears. "What's going on?" I asked.
"She is okay," the handsome boy closed his eyes and sighed in relief.
"Who are you?" I tried getting up and moving away, but my limbs seemed stuck in place. My heartbeat started picking up as anxiety started to rise in me. Who were these people and what did they want? "What do you want?"
"Vanish, it's okay--"
"Answer my question." I demanded, surprised by my steady voice.
"It's the Cave and the blood. It is messing with her mind." The huge wolf muttered.
"Vanish, it is Drake and Fenrir," the handsome boy named Drake moved his hand from him to the wolf.
"What do you mean a Cave and blood? Whose Vanish?" I tried moving my body again.
Fenrir and Drake made eye contact before answering me. "We need to get you out of here, but we don't understand what this little guy is saying. We were waiting for you to wake up so you could translate." Drake said.
"Wake up? What do you mean?" I asked.
"We can't be sure, but you have been out for like 3 days and we had to wait until you awoke." Drake rubbed his forehead. "We need to get out of this moving Cave thing, but we can't communicate with this" he pointed at the critter, "and only you can understand what he is saying."
"Why should I help you? I don't know any of you. That critter--"
"--Maddy. Maddy." Maddy, I think is his name, said.
"--Maddy," I glanced at the critter, "keeps calling me the Queen. I don't know any of you. I don't have to help you."
"But you will." Drake said confidently.
"What makes you think that?" I scoffed at him, my mouth agape.
"Because that is who you are, even though you don't know who you are at the moment." Drake said with a serious expression before turning into a ridiculously gorgeous smile, "plus, I am hot and you even think so."
I felt my eyes widen in surprise, I was completely speechless, "uh, wh-what makes you think that?"
He brought his head close to mine and I couldn't stop myself from glancing at his lips. "That's why." He laughed, taking his head away. I just scowled at him, how dare he do that?
"Okay, fine!" I yelled, frustrated.
"Queen, Queen! Time to move!" Maddy said jumping on Drakes back and pulling on his ears.
"You hear the little critter! Time to move!"
"Actually, we don't, little girl. That is why we need you." Fenrir growled, staring Drake down.
"What?" Drake asked while lifting me up.
"Do not get close to her like that again, human." The wolf snapped.
