When The Last Leaves Fell (AngellaXOc)

Chapter 1: A Reunion of Friends and Lovers

"Your Majesty! Queen Angella!"
"Wait did you say Angella- ACK!"
The Bright Moon general, Juliet, walked into the Throne Room, holding her helmet under her arm. Queen Angella looked up from the floor and stood up, leaning into her whole 7 feet. She liked to feel intimidating towards potential prisoners.
She cocked her head, her purple eyes narrowing. "A horde soldier, my queen." Juliet said, bowing smartly to her and then moving aside to reveal the prisoner.

"Hey, Angella."

I looked up nervously, waving weakly to the Queen standing before me. "Uh, long time no see?" Wow, she looked queenly. Very serious, very intimidating. Not at all like the girl I knew 17 years ago.

Recognition flutters over her face for a second and then- "HISTORIA?" Everyone in the room flinches as she swoops off her throne and flutters down to me, her powerful wings blasting air in my face. "So you do remember me." I say wryly, as she looms over me. "U-uh. Did you get taller? I feel like you got taller." Angella glares at me and I feel sweat dripping down my back. She throws her hands up in the air, "Really Historia? You leave Bright Moon, saying you're going to 'travel the world', but instead you join the Horde?!" I huff, "Actually I-" She swoops down on me again and the guards step back, "I'm quite disappointed in you right now." She says, and then rubs her forehead. "Okay, well first of all, I'm not a child, I'm a full grown adult, second of all, I did not join the Horde, well I did, but I did it as a spy!" I say, holding up my hands in front of me defensively.
Angella looks up, "You- what? Explain."

I stand up with difficulty, and then brush my blonde hair out of my eyes with my cuffed hands. "Okay... So. It started when I left Bright Moon 17 years ago, but you know that part.... So, um. I did travel the world but when I went to visit Selenius, they thought I was a spy for the Horde and brought me to Princess Mermista. Long story short, she hired me to be a spy for her and I joined the Horde for her." I say, looking at Angella, hoping my expression isn't too pleading.

Angella looks dumbfounded, flabbergasted even. (Can a Queen be flabbergasted or is that not proper enough?) She tugs on her white gloves, her purple eyes meeting my blue ones. "Okay..." She says slowly, "Let me get this straight... You joined the Horde as a spy for Mermista?" I nod quickly as the guards just gape at me.

She stares at me for a long time. I stare at her for a long time. Awkward.

"Guards, un-cuff her." Angella says and I feel my heart lift with hope. Juliet pulls out a key and unlocks the cuffs. I rub my wrists and laugh softly. Angella turns towards the door and motions for me to follow. "Wait! My queen!" Juliet says, "Do you really think it's safe for you to be alone with her? Do you really believe her story?" I cross my arms and glare at the General as Angella nods softly. "I do, General. As you may or may not have already figured out, we have a history. I once trusted her with my life. I'm willing to do it one last time."
