Evil

The Vengeance

      **

   I cried myself next to her, after that I wiped my tears and fix myself. The princess shouldn't see me with blood on my clothes, she'll be scared. I slowly lay her down. I noticed the flowers in her hands. She even wanted to save them from the fire before herself. I placed her hands together and put some flowers in her hands. I put the rest around her.

"Why did I even do this? This won't help her. This can't atone my sin. I killed her, then what? I'm fixing her deathbed where at the first place is my fault? It's my fault that she died. I KILLED HER! I KILLED HER! I KILLED HER! I'M A MURDERUR!"

My hands shaking as I'm looking down to her lifeless body. Her face is so peaceful, it seems like she accepted what I did yet I feel like dying here. I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself again. I left her body not even looking back. I should take all the responsibilities for this. I made a promise; I'll make her smile even it cost my own.

Same day, the princess is in her chair at the astonishing garden behind the palace. The place is full of red and yellow roses. She took a sip of a tea in her cup while I approach her.

"It's snack time!" She exclaimed happily.

"Today snack will be Brioche!"

I announced and she laughs so innocently. I wish she would laugh like that every day.

Days passed I noticed the anger forming within the city. It's natural, the news about the kingdom destroying the Green town spread so fast. I'm sure too that the Blue Kingdom is in rage. The prince is grieving to his beloved girl's death. But because of the peace treaty the kingdoms promised to never go against each other to prevent war. This was also an honour to the three legendary hero kings therefore the Blue prince now cannot deploy his troops to attack the Yellow kingdom. Instead he sent his most excellent and strongest knight; the guy in the Red Armor- Neville.

I went to the city again where some people having a meeting. I saw the man in a red armor in the city. He's leading the town to form a revolution. Everyone is mad, everyone seeks for their retribution. Soon the Yellow kingdom will end.

"We cannot tolerate the Princess's misbehaviour anymore! We all dying here while she eats cake in her castle unaware of our situation. Don't wait until she destroy us all too! For justice! For freedom!"

An old man declared. The people respond with a loud screech. Neville ordered them to attack the palace tomorrow first thing in the morning. I run right away to the palace to say the news to the princess as well as to the ministries.

Everyone prepared for a bloody battle tomorrow.

"What could be the princess thinking that she's up so late?"

I asked peaking from her door. She was sitting at her bed. So dark the only light is the moon from her window.

"Lance.''

"I was checking if you are asleep. What are you up to?" I put down the lamp to the table.

"I'm just happy."

"Huh?"

"Because Lance is with me." She smiled.

I smiled back. Did she remember?

"Lance always grants my wishes, you will stay with me forever right? I just don't want to be alone again."

"Of course if the princess says it..."
