I had an awful dream of death. My family of course, but this time, Alyssa, Crystal, and even the little boy's voice died.

"No.. please, don't leave me alone! I'm tired of being lonely!" I pleaded with the dream.

"Don't go... Everyone!" I screamed.

I awoke in a warm room. There were birds chirping outside, and the warmth of day crept in.

"The... palace?" I tried to remember what I had been doing.

Right! Palace, prince, Alyssa, Judal, and the voice.

"The voice!" I gasped. I needed to run!

I rushed out of the bed and found myself in a cute, pearl white night gown.

My hair was perfectly brushed, and It looked like I had been bathed.

"..How...? I've never had enough money for something like this." I admired it's silky qualities, twirling around, and looking in the mirror.

Then I remembered running.

I dashed to the door and twisted the nob a few times, to no prevail.

"What?" I asked in frustration. I was not going to be stuck in this room! It was a very, very nice room. However I remembered the young boys irrgent voice, telling me to run.

I suddenly heard a voice from down the hall.

"Can I see her?" Asked the familiar voice of my co-worker Alyssa.

"No. No one can see her until the prince arrives." A muscular voice of a older man told her.

"Alyssa?" I yelled loud enough for her to hear me.

"M-mor?! I thought the spell lasted longer than that...?" Alyssa asked the guardman.

"I wouldn't know. I'm just a simple jailer, see?" The man said in a strange accent.

"Jailer? Alyssa what's going on here?" I asked confused I my predicament.

I paced around my room tugging on my dress hem waiting for an answer. But before she got a chance, I heard her and the jailer say in union, "Prince Natsume!"

"What?!?" I screeched and stepped backwards a few times until I fell onto the bed.

"Open it, jailer." Order the prince to the buff sounding man.

"Now!" He demanded.

"Oh! Yes, your highness." I could hear the jailer rummaging around for the right key.

"Pr-prince Natsume? If you don't mind me asking..?" Alyssa whispered.

"What?" He answered annoyed.

"Umm.. well, what will happen to morgiana..?" Alyssa asked shyly, sounding still scared of what had happened earlier.

"That's none of your buisness. Back to your work, maid." Said the prince after a moment of consideration.

"...Yes, sir." Alyssa's footsteps got farther and farther away, and I was left only hearing the sound of jangling keys and the princes sigh.

"Faster!" He moaned impatiently.

"Ye-yes sir!"

I tip toed across the room, trying to find any way I could get out. There was a window, but I then noticed I was in a very high part of the palace.

I sighed as the sunlight brushed my face, and gleamed off of the dungeon a few miles away.

Although it was a few miles, you could see it perfectly.
