   Aphmau's P.O.V

          How dare they!  How dare him!  I am the lord, not him.  I think I should be involved in every meeting, but no I'm stuck in my house with Katelyn guarding the door, because Aaron doesn't believe I can handle the  :"truth" about Laurence. I mean seriously, if I couldn't handle the truth about one person then I shouldn't be a lord.  Yet here I am complaining to my self that I'm stuck inside my room instead of taking action and doing something about it.

"KATELYN,  LET ME OUT  OF THIS HOUSE RIGHT NOW OR SO HELP ME I WILL LOCK YOU IN THE DUNGEONS FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS," I yelled fiercely at her. 

She giggled as she replied, "Aphmau, we all know that you couldn't even let our prisoners stay in the dungeon that long, let alone one of your best friends. You would come and get me after an hour, pleading for forgiveness."

"Katelyn, I'm serious, let me go to that meeting." I commanded.

"I'm sorry, Aph, but  Aaron ordered me to make sure you didn't leave, and I will not disobey it."

''You would follow his orders over your own lords.  Your friends. I thought you were better than that, but I guess I was wrong." 

"Aph, don't say that.  I would let you out, but again Aaron ordered me to and I will follow his order, not because I want to disobey you, but because I know its best for you."

That's it. I'm tired of people saying, "This is what's best for you."  I'm sick of it.  I am so angry. I start flipping the chairs, the table, pushing stuff of the counters, disrupting the whole house.  Then I remembered something.  I had a tunnel under the bed that led into the woods for emergencies.  It would be the perfect escape, since I couldn't get out the door.  I gently moved the bed making sure I could get in the tunnel, but be able to move the bed back into its place.  As soon as I did that I headed down the long dark tunnel to the end.  I was going to sneak into that meeting

Katelyn's P.O.V

Aaron told me to stay outside of Aphmau's house to make sure that she doesn't go to that meeting.  At first it didn't make sense to me why couldn't Aphmau go to that meeting.  What was so detrimental that she wouldn't be able to handle.  Aaron explained that they had information on Laurence, that he has embraced his shadow knight form and has abandoned Aphmau for good.  When Garroth saw Laurence in the woods, Laurence attacked Garroth, his own best friend.  Hearing this would break Aphmau's heart.  My thoughts were interrupted by screaming,

"KATELYN, LET ME OUT OF THIS HOUSE RIGHT NOW OR SO HELP ME I WILL LOCK YOU IN THE DUNGEONS FOR MONTHS AND MONTHS," she yelled fiercely at me.

I giggled as I responded, "Aphmau, we all know that you couldn't even let our prisoners stay in the dungeon that long, let alone one of your best friends. You would come and get me after an hour, pleading for forgiveness."

"Katelyn, I'm serious, let me go to that meeting." she commanded.

"I'm sorry, Aph, but Aaron ordered me to make sure you didn't leave, and I will not disobey it."

''You would follow his orders over your own lords. Your friends. I thought you were better than that, but I guess I was wrong." she replied with a tone of disappointment. 

"Aph, don't say that. I would let you out, but again Aaron ordered me to and I will follow his order, not because I want to disobey you, but because I know its best for you."

A few minutes after we finish talking I hear the sound of stuff hitting the floor, things shattering as they hit the floor and then silence.  Silence that's odd even before I could hear Aphmau doing stuff around the house.  I  wonder whats she is doing in there.  I wait a for more minutes to see if there was any sound at all.  I couldn't even here breathing.  I don't know what is going on so I try talking to her again.

"Aphmau, I'm sorry, but this is the right thing to do I can take you to see Malachi, Levin, and Lilith if you want."

No response is returned. I am starting to get worried that something happened to here when she went on her rampage

"Oh, come on Aph, don't give me the silent treatment." 

Still no response. I start to panic.  What if something happened to her.  What if someone broke in and kidnapped her when she breaking things and I just thought it was her breaking things.

"Aphmau, If you don't respond this time I am coming in there!"

I hat that I have to just walk into her house, but I got no response and was really worried, so I went inside.  It was a mess Aphmau really did some damage to her house.  Everything was on  the floor. I looked around and realized I couldn't find her anywhere. Where is she? She couldn't have escaped.  She couldn't have walked out the door, because I was there and none of the windows were broken, so how could she have got out? Oh no, she's gone. She is gone and I have no idea where she is AARON IS GOING TO KILL ME! I'm assuming she is going to be heading to the meeting.  I need to stop her, before Aaron finds out. I just hope I get to her before its to late.
