The Lion's Lady

Together in Sunlight

Chapter 15

With the Chamberlain leading them, they slowly make their way to the back entrance of the castle.

While whispering, Linda asks, "How far do we have left to go?"

"We shouldn't have too far to go, after we make a turn here." Said the Chamberlain.

They finally reached the entrance.

Leonardo shakes the Chamberlain's hand and says, "Thank you for helping us out of here, I'll make sure to repay you."

"It's no problem at all, but once the Princess finds out you're gone you'll have to make a run for it."

Linda smiled and said, "We know, but we still thank you."

Then Leonardo gently grabbed Linda's hand and they started running.

Once they made it halfway out of the Velcent Kingdom, they started to hear horses running in their direction.

"She must've figured out we're gone." Linda says worryingly.

Leonardo, annoyed, says, "if only she didn't figure it out so soon."

Leonardo picks up Linda and starts to run even faster.

"It seems that even though I'm free from turning into a Lion... I still possess the speed of a Lion." Leonardo thought.

After they made it out of The Velcent Kingdom. Linda pointed the way to the Griffin, while they were still being chased by Velcent soldiers.

"Up there, there's the Griffin!" Linda shouted.

Leonardo, then makes a big leap up the cliff. And puts Linda on the Griffin then hopped on himself.

Linda gave the other half of the fruit to the Griffin, "Here you go."

After consuming the fruit, the Griffin took flight and blew the Velcont soldiers away.

Relieved, Leonardo and Linda hug each other.

"Finally, we're free and together." Says Leonardo.

Tearfully, Linda says, "Yes, we finally are."

Coming to the middle point of the sea Linda dropped the Seed and a giant sequoia tree grew. There was a platform at the top, where they and the griffin would rest for the rest of the night.

Leonardo carried Linda off the Griffin.

"Now that the curse is broken, I'll finally be able to stand in the sunlight with you." Leonardo said while smiling.

Linda hugged Leonardo while he's carrying her and said,

"I'm glad, we can go everywhere... Well after we handle our royal responsibilities..."

"Yea, and not only that. We need to handle the trouble Princess Robyn caused." Leonardo says while annoyed.

Linda sighed and said, "We're gonna have so much work to do once we're back."

Leonardo puts Linda down, and puts his hands on her shoulder gently.

"But, for now we can relax knowing that we're finally together."

With the sun rising in the background he gets down on one knee, and gently takes her hand.

"Linda Salto, will you do me the honors of marrying me and becoming the Queen of "The Forest of Capet"."

Linda smiled tearfully and said, "Yes."

Then they hugged and kissed.

After the Griffin fully rested, they made their way to "The Forest of Capet".
