*your pov*

I was woken by thunder sounding in the air and a bolt of lightning brightening my room. I was shaking when I got out of bed and walked down the long hallway to my parents chambers.

"Mommy. Daddy?" I called to them.

The rain was pounding throughout the night as I crawled in their bed. Feeling something cold and wet surrounding them. The window must of been open.

As I crawled under the blanket with them, I slowly drifted off to sleep. Dreaming of magic, fae, demons and a river running cold with their blood.

-next morning-

I woke up to the sound of birds singing in the eve. I rolled over and saw father covered in his own life blood. I froze. I slowly sat up and touched mother.

"M-mommy? Daddy's...." I turned to look at mother to see that she as well was covered in her own blood.

I looked down to see myself covered in their blood. A mixture of their blood. I could feel a scream sitting at the base of my throat. But it wouldn't come out. It couldn't.

As I slowly got up and out of their bed, I walked to the maids chamber at the other end of my home.

"C-Celeana?" I called for her.

"Yes my dear?"

As Celeana walked out of the maids chamber, her silver hair unbound and had her night gown on.

She saw that I was cover in blood.

"Y-N!? What in God's green earth happened!?" She hurriedly grabbed my arm and took me into her bathroom.

She filled up the tub with warm water and undressed me. I could feel tear well up.

"T-theyre dead." Was all I could say.

"Who my dear? Who?" Celeana asked as she put me into the water and scrubbed the blood off.

"Mom and dad." I sobbed.

"It was probably just a dream." The maid said frantically while drying me off.

"It wasn't! If it was then I wouldn't of come here covered in their blood!" My voice cracked.

"Oh dear. Oh dear oh dear oh dear. This isn't good. The King and Queen are dead. What do we do?" Celeana started pacing as I changed into some clothes that was to big for me.

I couldn't help it. I walked out of the maids chambers and back to my parents.

"Y-N?! Where are you going!?" Celeana called after me.

My feet took me there. All the way up the stairs and into the bright hall that had the big wooden door that led to my parents room.

I took a deep breath and opened the door. Slowly. Then all at once. And there lay my parents. Their body's cut, bruised and burned. I let out a scream. Their faces was the worst of it all. Caught in an endless scream. Begging for mercy as the killer tortured and manipulated their bodies.

I sank to my knees at the sight.

"Princess?" Celeana touched my shoulder in disbelief.

She picked me up and brought me to my rooms. As I was set on my bed, the image kept coursing through my brain like a river running through a valley.

I cried and cried until I could cry no more. And soon I allowed exauhstion take me under. And I slept.

-that night-

*killers pov*

I soon mad my way back to the castle. I hadn't realized that there was a child for me to assasinate. I sighed and crept up the side of the castle to the kings and Queens chambers. As I opened the window, I saw that the body's were removed and the bed cleaned.

I walked to the door that lead to the hallway. It was late at night so no one would be awake. As I walked down to the child's room, I could hear foot steps that were not my own. I turned around to see a small girl around the age of 5.

"What's your name dear?" I asked her.

"Y-N Y-L-N. What's yours?" She answered.

"Well that is a secret my young one." I grinned under my cloak hood.

"Well that's not fair!" She whined.

"Well if you really must know. I am Silver Fullbuster. And you are to meet your end."

I pulled out a dagger that was attached to my belt and slashed the girls chest. She screamed loudly. To loud. I picked up her bleeding body and threw her out the window into the river bellow.

"That'll take care of her. Now my job is done." I said and left the castle.
