Shandreana's Point of View

"Get that filthy thing out of here!"

"We don't need someone like her!"

"She's no use!"

"She'll never be one of us!"

"She's a shame"

"She doesn't belong here, and never will be!"

"She's a disaster!"

And then I just felt that someone kicked me from behind. I've been crying since I entered this place, and I'm dying just to get out of here, this meeting hall where all elders, leaders, as well as my parents being the queen and king of our clan. I looked at my parents with the trace of pain and asking for help but they just turned their gazed away from me. How could this be? They are my parents yet they won't protect me.

"But she's too young, I mean she's still 16. Maybe we can give her another chance" I heard someone shouted. I turned to see who it was, and I saw my nanny. She's crying and doesn't like seeing me being shouted out, looked down, and with bruises all over my body.

"What?! Another chance? No way" an elder named Uruchimaru shouted.  And then the commotion just started again.

"There's nothing wrong with giving another chance. Don't you see? She's the only royal blooded daughter in our clan with her parents, and yet you want to throw her away. We never knew what will happen in the future. So, stop with this nonsense" my nanny talked back. I  met her gaze with my eyes tracing a sign for her to stop but she just smiled at me weakly. Everyone stopped talking and just listened to what she's going to say.

"Look, no matter what she may be, either she can transform or not, she's still the princess and we with the position below and lesser power than her never have the right to insult nor hurt her" she started crying again. I was about to smile when I heard gasps and at the same time tears started rolling down on her face. My eyes widened when blood started coming out from her mouth, and just there when I finally realized someone stabbed her from behind. I started crying when she mouthed at me "Take care, my beloved princess"  and slowly she fell on the floor without life. Without thinking twice I rush towards her hoping that maybe she's still alive. The guards hanged on my way but there's something in me which to their surprise the body they owned move aside and made a way so I can go through and get closer to my nanny.

"N-Nanny, please wake up" I sadly said between my sobs. Why don't they care? Can't they at least call a medic for nanny's life? They just killed an innocent one who just got involved in order to protect me. 

"Oh nanny, please wake up for me" I shouted again but there's still no response coming from her. How I badly need her everytime I woke up in the morning, she's the only person who understands me the most. She never hurt me even once, she's- she's like a mother to me, more like a mother can be.

"Nanny, please. I need you" this statement is the last thing I asked from her to wake up, and I started to break down. 

"I have my final decision" I heard someone said, I turned my gaze to that person and to my surprise it was my father standing in front of everyone, a voice that always sounds with full of authority.  Everyone looked at him as if they are expecting for a more and better decision than their puzzled minds.

"It is to, give Shandreana a chance" with words he said everyone growled and others sounds disappointed while my face got lightened. But I thought that's the only thing which was running on his mind, yet was wrong, wrong again.

"But she needs to prove everything that can satisfy us, her obligations, and get the wild beast out of her"  he added which made my worlds broken into pieces, he just made my life worse than I could ever imagine. But never mind though, I'll take it as a challenge from the King, or else my father.

I felt the warm liquid  from my eyes starting to roll down on my cheecks again, I know I'm crying again. I looked at nanny again, and to my surprise her eyes were not closing. She's looking at me intently. Her eyes became yellow in color with a garnet surrounding it, and I can see the ice blue color in the middle part of her eyes. I'm starting to feel cold, my entire body started to shake. I heard voices and shadows all around me, and nanny's voice calling my name. She told me, she'll always be by my side until the right time of my......... awakening? I don't what she meant but that's what she told me. I'll be awake sooner or later. Isn't it odd? I'm already awake, why would I wake up again?

2 years later

"Kill her!" I heard someone shouted behind me. It's from the elder who brought me to enter this kind of battle, Uruchimaru. I faced the woman in front of me, she's shivering with fear and tears started rolling donw her cheecks. No, I can't kill an innocent one. And I will never kill someone just because I entered this kind of dangerous battle. I made a promise before, a promise for my nannny who sacrificed her life just to save a filthy shameful creature like me, and who's blood was scattered all over the floor just to save the poor me. I'll never want a stain of blood in my hands, I don't want to kill.

"I said kill her, or else" I heard Uruchimaru shouted again which became a bell on my ear, those unbearable words came out from his mouth pushed me into a situation to make a decision, not a better one, but the worst one I'll ever do since the past two years of being a slave by higher positions with greater power than I am. I know I'm a princess of my own clan, but horridly I became a slave not to serve one person, but of all elders, and leaders, not in house but in dangerous mission. Still remember what the king, which turns out to be my father? I should get the wild beast out of me.

"P-Please, don't" a girl with a short curly hair wearing a black assassin suit in front of me, my enemy for today.

"Trust me, I never want to" tears started to from on my eyes as I closed it not wanting to see every things that I'm gonna do to her, and things which is out of my league. I heaved out a heave sigh before slicing her stomach using the sword that my nanny gave me.

Flashback

"Nanny, what a nice sword you have there!" I said as I got near her. She chuckled and handed me the sword.

"Here you go, you can keep it" she said. 

"Really nanny? What for?" 

"It's for your birthday. I know it was a week ago, but that was suppose to be my birthday present but I forgot to bring it with me when I returned home last month, so I brought it with me when I returned home the other day " she explained.

"Thank nanny, I love you" I happily exclaimed as I hugged her tight. When I let go, I saw a design of a white wolf leaping on its handle, I found it cool. I raised my head when I heard nanny talking.

"You can have that if you would promise me not to kill anyone without an enough reason using that sword. Promise?" she asked. I warmly smiled at her.

"I promise"

END OF FLASHBACK

The fight ended when I heard a loud cry and a warm liquid spatted on my face, it's blood. I opened my eyes as I started to cry again.

'I'm sorry" I brokey apologized to her but she just smiled.

"It's not your fault" she said as she started to close her eyes, she's dead. This not right, I killed an innocent one, I killed someone without any enough reason. 

I'm sorry, nanny.
