"Woodlock!" A guard bangs his fists on Nora's cell making her jolt awake. "You've got a visitor." The guard walks away. Nora yawns and rubs her eyes. She had cried herself to sleep the past few nights. She had been hearing voices and seeing a ghost that looks like Sophia. So she had slept well. "Visitor..?" She thought to herself. Travis walks into the room and smiles awkwardly. "Hey Nora.." Travis looks down. Nora's eyes normally would have lit up when she saw Travis. But her eyes stayed empty. "Hey Travis.." she says softly. "How.. have you been.?" Travis looks back at Nora. "I haven't slept in three days." Nora looks at the cold ground. "I.. I'm sorry.." Travis looks away. "Do you see her too..?" Nora asked. Travis raised an eyebrow at her. "See who?" Travis looks confused. "Sophia.. do you see her too?" Nora looked at Travis. "No, do you?" Travis still looks confused. "I'm not crazy.. but... I keep... hearing her... and sometimes I see her.." Nora looks down at the ground. "Everyone here thinks I'm insane." Nora sighs. "You're not insane. I believe you." Travis smiles. "Me and the king are working to get you out of here. You just have to hold on a little longer." Travis says softly. Nora smiles. "Thanks Travis." She looks up at him. "Your time is up!" A guard walks in. "I promise Nora, we will get you out." Travis smiles "let's go!" The guard grabs Travis's arm. "Don't touch me." Travis pulled his arm away and walked out of the room. "Freak." The guard spits and walks out of the room as well. Nora presses her knees to her chest and sits there on the cold hard floor.

Akira slams his fist onto the table. "What do you mean I can't use any of my evidence to prove her innocence?" Akira shouted at someone. "Your majesty, calm down." A woman spoke softly. "No! I won't calm down! You tell me right now why I can't use my perfectly good evidence to get Nora out of prison?!" Akira yelled. "No one will believe you." The woman spoke sternly. "Oh I'll make them believe me. Get me in interview with Sophia's stupid judge." Akira crossed his arms. "I cannot do that." The woman looked away. "That wasn't a fucking request!" Akira yelled at the woman. "Your majesty!" Travis came into the room. "Travis I've told you, call me Akira." Akira sighed. "Get me that ducking interview. Or else it's your life that will be on the line." Akira gave the woman a death stare that sent shivers down her spine. The woman nodded and walked away. "Akira, I talked with Nora." Travis says softly. "Is she okay?" Akira turns around. "Sophia's ghost is haunting her." Travis says. "What? How is that even possible?" Akira looks confused. "I don't know, but we need to get her out soon." Travis crosses his arms. Akira nods. "I'm getting an interview with Sophia's judge. Hopefully I can get her out." Akira sighs. "Let's just.. hope she's okay until then." Akira smiles.

"Hm..." a man sighs. "Sir, we got the camera running in Nora's cell." A maid bows to the man. "Good." The man smiles. "I'm just keeping an eye on Akira.." the man sips his wine.

"Come on.. come on.." Leo paces the living room. "Nora pick up.." Leo says in a worried tone. The call goes straight to voice mail. "Shit.." Leo sighs. "Where could she be?" Leo thinks to himself. Knock knock! Leo looks at the door. He puts the phone down and walks up to the door. He opens it and sees a royal guard on the other side. "Hello? Can I help you?" Leo asks. "Why would a royal guard be here?" Leo thought. "Hello, my name is Travis. You're Nora's roommate?" Travis asks softly. "Yes I am, is she okay?!" Leo asks slightly panicked. "She's fine, she's.. in jail." Travis looks down. "Jail?!" Leo says worried. "Queen Sophia from the kingdom next door is dead. She tried to poison Nora and Nora defended herself. But now Nora is facing murder charges. Me and the king are trying to get her out." Travis crosses his arms. Leo looked shocked. "We will get her back, but the king thought you should know." Travis smiles. "Thanks.." Leo looks down. "Have a good night." Travis goes to walk away. "Wait!" Leo shouts out suddenly. Not even Leo knows why he did that. "Yes?" Travis turns around. "Can you stay?" Leo asked, Travis blushed a bit from awkwardness. "Uhm.." Travis mumbles. "Sorry.. it's.. I haven't slept in a house by myself since I moved in with Nora and.. I guess... I don't want to be alone." Leo says softly. "I'm sorry but I have alot to take care of." Travis sighs, Leo looks down at the ground with a frown. "But, I can stay.. til you fall asleep or something.." Travis scratches the back of his head. Leo smiles and lets Travis inside.

"King Akira! What a lovely surprise." The judge smiles. But Akira wasn't. "How may I help?" The judge looks down at paperwork but Akira grabbed the paperwork from his desk and moved it and slammed down evidence of what happened with Nora and Sophia. "What's this?" The judge asks with a fake smile. "Evidence, of when Sophia tried to poison Nora." Akira said sternly. "I'm sorry, but this is not relevant to what actually happened." The judge gives an annoyed smile. "You have a good-" the judge got cut off by Akira grabbed the collar of his shirt. "I'm gonna make myself very clear here and you're gonna fucking listen. Sophia tried to murder Nora. Don't believe me? I have camera proof." Akira said with a death stare. "Nora is guilty still." The judge smiles. Akira chuckles, he punches the judge and wipes the smile straight off of his face. "I'm gonna give you a choice here.. you either let Nora go, or I beat the living hell out of you until you do." Akira said with an angered tone. "I'd like to see you try." The judge spit. "Alright." Akira smiles. He punches the judge again but this time harder. Akira raised his fists to do it again but the judge finally gave in. "Okay okay!! I'll let her out!" The judge squirming to get out of Akira's grip. Akira lets go. "Nice talking to you." Akira smiles."

"And then, Nora fell backwards into the lake and I had to jump in and get her." Leo laughed. Travis also laughed, "You really were prepared to risk your life to save your friends?" Travis asked. "I would do anything to save Nora. She's been my friend for like ever." Leo chuckles. Travis nods. Travis looks down at his wrist and sees an alert. He taps his watch and sees a message from Akira. Nora is free from prison. Travis looks up. "What is it?" Leo asks. "Nora is free.." Travis smiles. "I have to go get her." Travis gets up. "Travis wait!" Leo stood up. "I enjoyed talking with you." Leo smiles. "Me too Leo." Travis smiles. Leo walks up to Travis and kisses his cheek. Travis blushes intensely. "Go get Nora." Leo smiles. "Y-yeah!" Travis grabs his sword and runs out of the house. Leo smiles while blushing slightly.

Nora was sitting on the cold hard floor of her cell, she looks up when she hears the door open. Travis walks in and unlocks Nora's cell. She stands up immediately. "What's going on?" Nora asks softly. "You'rere getting out." Akira walks into the room. "What..?" Nora smiles. Tears in her eyes. She runs and jumps into Akira's arms and hugs him tightly. "Woah.." Akira chuckles, he hugs her back. Nora looks up at Akira and her smile fades.. she presses her lips against his suddenly. Akira went backwards and gets pinned against the wall and he kisses back. "Guys!" Travis tells. Nora snaps out of staring at Akira. "Let's go." Travis smiles. "Yeah.." Nora stops hugging Akira. Akira smiles. They all walk out of Sophia's kingdom together. "You go home Travis, I'm gonna take Nora home." Akira smiles. Akira starts driving. "It feels so good to be out of that hellhole." Nora chuckles. "And back in normal clothes?" Akira smiles. Nora looks out the car window.

Leo paces the living room when Nora walks in. "Okay bye." Nora smiles. Leo runs and hugs Nora tightly. "Oh!" Nora smiles. "Missed you too.." Nora mumbles. "I thought something happened to you.. I-" Leo had tears in his eyes. Nora wiped his eyes softly. "I'm okay." Nora smiles. She hugs Leo tightly. "Don't leave like that ever again." Leo chuckles.

"Sir!" A maid comes bursting into the throne room. She bows to a man. "Sir! I have news." The maid says softly. "Talk." The man says sipping a glass of wine. "Nora is out of jail." The maid says a bit hesitantly. The man drinks the glass of wine and the glass shatters. "WHAT?!" The man yells. "Get eyes on her now!" The man yells. "But sir!" the maid tries to speak. "NOW!" The man yells loudly. "Y-yes sir!" The maid walks away scared. "You think you can leave my jail?" The man laughs. "You're stuck in my game now Nora, and I will make you suffer." The man sits in the throne. "Watch your back Nora.." the man laughs like a psycho.
