Jaelynn's POV

My heels made a clicking sound as I walked down the dark corridor. It was 6:00 in the morning and I was in a restless slumber until my guard summoned me to go foward to my father. 'What does my father even want!? He never usually calls for me and he defiantly wouldn't this early.' My thoughts were wondering until I reached the dark pine wood door that led to the throne room. The castle is made mostly of pine wood on the inside but concrete on the outside. The pine wood brings an earthly smell that just cloud through my nostrils. I took a deep breath and slowly opened the door. I walked in and saw my father sitting on his throne with a distressed look on his face. There was an empty throne next to him where my mom should have been. My mom died from a diease when I was 4 years old. To this day, we still don't know what the diease was. I nimbly walked over to my father and bowed. Even though I was a princess, we are still permitted to show great respect to the king.

"Hello Jaelynn. Thank you for coming so early." My father said

"Greetings father. You shall not worry, it was my honor to come. What have u called -"

I was interrupted by a large bang and flames bursting upwards, knocking me over. I looked around and the castle was falling to pieces. 

"Father! What is happening!?"

"We are being attack by the silicones. You have to leave now!"

"But what about you! I can't leave you!"

"You must and you will! I will be fine. Now go and run far away!"

With that I turned around and bolted towards my room I grabbed by leather bag and stuffed 2 dresses in it and some of my moms memories and food. I then changed into dark brown trousers and a loose green shirt. I then put my hair in a high pony and slipped my nimble feet in my leather boots.

I ran out of my room and ran right into my sincara(grandfather)

"Oh sorry sincara"

" Jaelynn I was looking for you. I obviously won't be able to make it out of here. Go to my library and get my journals and books and get my keys in my desk drawer"

"What's so special about the books?"

"They hold great secrets to them. Use them. U will later understand"

"But..., I won't be able to fit them!"

"Yes you will. Your backpack was designed by a wizard and she made it a unending backpack."

"That's so cool!!!"

"Yes. Now listen to me very carefully once u get out of here, go through the nighlick forests. Then follow the mountains. You will then encounter a camp. You are to stay there. I have a good friend named Tyrain as the leader there. Tell him Li sent you. Now go my sweet Jaelynn!"

I ran to the library and grabbed all the books and diaries and wrapped the keys around my neck. I slowly opened the window and jumped out landing about 2 feet on the roof. I ran past houses, ducking out of sight and a silicones bolted by with a war axe. I was about to move when a branch of fire flew my way. It landed on my arm and burned it. 'Oh shit' I mentally screamed in my head. I bit my lip to keep the scream of pain inside and slowly started to move again towards the the forest. I made it to the border of forest and I looked back. The silicones were starting to advance on the castle and I knew, that my father was not going to be okay. I nimbly turned away with tears in my eyes

"Goodbye" I whispered and I entered the forest.
