Lana Parrilla 27

34.

Jen and I where wearing costumes with masks so we could explore the con without any disturbance. We walked hand in hand down the Once area where we saw Colin and a couple others signing. I walked up behind him getting yeld at and pinched his sides. He jumped. He looked at me for a moment before hugging me and Jen.
"Hey heard ya guys where here." He said signing another.
"Yes and keep quite." Jen said putting a finger to her lips. He smiled.
"Sure luvs. Now you better be gettin before someone catches their eye on ya." His accent was hard to understand sometimes.
"Sure Colin see ya later." I say as I pull Jen away. We walk over to the back where some old costumes are. I wasn't watching where I was going and walked straight into a black night.
"Oh sorry didn't see you there." I blush. My eye mask catching most of it.
"Uh no my fault." He said with a deep gruff voice. I look to see a girl dressed up as Thalia in her bandit costume. She had a mask just like it.
"Nice costumes. Oncers?" Jen asked observing too.
"Yes we like the story between the night and Thalia." He answered again. I noticed the girl starring at me. Her eyes were this brilliant grey with tints of blue.
"Hi what's your name?" I asked with a smile.
"Uh nò ìnglès." She says quickly. I smile.
"¿Còmo te llama?" She looks to the knight.
She just looks down.
"I'm sorry she's shy." I couldn't see his face because of the veil but I could tell by his voice that he didn't want to be in that position at that moment.
"I totally understand." I look to see Jen studying the girl. She was about Emilees hight and size. It was like a replica standing in front of me. I looked to see an engagement ring on her.
"You guys are engaged?" Jen asked before I could.
"Yes we are." He brought her close.
"Well it was nice running into you guys but we must be going." I say and drag Jen with me after a quick goodbye. After we pass them I spot four more knights following them. Must be guards. I didn't think much of it. Some people here had money.
"Is it just me or did that look like the real thing?" Jen asked when we got to another vender.
"It did. Same size everything." I pay for a bag of cotton candy.
"I know strange it was like she knew who you were." She took a piece putting it in her mouth.
"Ya and her eyes felt familiar."
We walked around for another hour or so when we came up to an area that you could take photos with props. With your phones of course. I waited behind a curtain waiting for a couple to come out when I heard them talking.
"If that happens again in going to kill somebody. Not literally mentally." The feminine voice said angrily.
"Don't worry Em it won't after we are done we can go do whatever you want." It was the gruff guy from earlier.
"Dylan I can't keep running into them I'm going insane! I want to go and jump on her and hug her forever but if I do that she'll be in danger." Am the girl complained. I peeked in the curtain to see that they had their masks off. I quickly closed it and looked to see a confused Jen.
"What?" She whispered. I mouthed words but nothing came out.
"Spit it out I can't read frantic lips but I can kiss them." She chuckled lightly.
"No Jen its Emilee." I hissed back in a whisper.
"What let me look." She peeked through and quickly shut it again.
"She saw me." She panicked. My eyes widened.
"For gods sake!" She yelled catching the attention of passer byes.
"Looks like some one is mad." Jen whispered. She came out with her mask on and Dylan following. She ran through the crowed being surrounded by the black Knights. They formed a circle around her and got her to the back and down a hall. I ran after her picking up the extra stuff on my costume.
"Wait!" I yelled running with Jen on my heels. We got to the hall and was stopped by security.
"No access." He stated. I lifted up my mask and glared at him. He swallowed hard his Adam's apple bobbing up and down.
"Right this way." He moved and I ran towards the Knights. They had some distance but I was going to get to her if it was the last thing I did.
"Emilee Madisen Peterson!" I yelled in my scolding mother tone. The Knights stopped dead in their tracks at the exact same time.
"What?" She screamed with all her might.
"Where do you think your going?" I asked when I caught up. The Knights still in my way.
"Where you aren't!" She yelled low almost a growl.
"Move your damn men so I can see you now!" I demanded.
"No." She persisted like a child.
"Now." I evil queened it.
"No." Damn this kid some days.
"1. 2.-" the Knights moved.
"I'm not a child stop your fucking counting." She growled again.
"Then stop acting like one. Then I might consider it." She rolled her eyes.
"What the hell? Can't stay away from me I see." She complained folding her arms.
"Hells Bells kid. Let me guess same costume you shot in? Emilee I heard everything back there I miss you too." My eyes softened.
"I don't care what you heard your just putting yourself in more danger than you need to be." She was looking at the wall.
"Last I checked I'm not a wall and it's been four years! Pass the time for you to be back." I put my hands on my hips.
"I didn't come back when they said I could go home because I'm scared!" She yelled with so much anger I knew I was getting somewhere.
"Why! Why are you scared!" I yelled back. I could feel my temper rising and my dark make up probably made me look evil. I don't fucking care at the moment.
"Because I will just hurt you again!" She screamed.
"But your getting married and I'm gonna miss it because your scared to let me back in!!!!" I screamed. She had tears running down her face. She nodded to the Knights and they took me and Jen by the arms and followed Emilee to a room in the back.
"Where we going?" Jen asked shrugging the nights off. When we got in the room only Emilee was in there. The Knights shut and locked the door. I looked to see Emilee sitting at the mirror with her back to me playing with her ring. I went to touch her shoulder.
"Don't touch me." She said harshly.
"Why?" I whispered.
"Because if you do I'll melt and I do not melt." She whispered making eye contact with me in the mirror. I saw everything and more that I saw the first time I studied her eyes.
It was darker. Less joy full. The lady was replaced by a man. The wall was there but it was newer better than the last. The remains of the last crumbling in front of it.
"Would it be that bad?" I asked not once taking my eyes off her.
"It would." She closed her eyes. A tear escaping.
"Emilee please don't make us leave again." Jen pleaded.
"You don't but stay away please." She begged getting up and going to the door. Before she left she turned back to us. "By moms." She whispered. She left the door open but was enclosed by the Knights and escorted out to who knows where.
"Jen what do I do?" I asked tears streaming down probably ruining my makeup.
"We go to the hotel." She put my mask down after wiping away my fresh tears and pulling me out of the room with an arm around my waist.
