INTRODUCTION

Screams. That's all I heard, screams. Bloodcurdling, agonized screams. They echoed off the marble walls of the palace, filling my ears until they hurt. Fear, that's what I felt. A spine tingling, creeping fear. I looked around me, looking for a safe shelter from the flaming arrows that were being fired down on what was left of what was once a beautiful castle. I glance around again. There. My only hope was the small alcove that I used to sit in as a child. It was a good 10 metres away. So I ran. I ran like my life depended on it, which in this case, it was. 5 metres left. With 3 metres to go, I feel myself collapse on the ashy ground. A searing pain crawls up my filthy gown and up my leg. Ive been hit. Im on fire. I scream my loudest scream and squeeze my eyes shut. Please,not me. Before I knew it, tears were streaming down my face, mixing with the ash that had coated my delicate skin. "THE PRINCESS! SAVE THE PRINCESS!" I heard someone shout. Voices filled the air around me, though I couldnt make out their faces since the snoke was blurring my eyesight. But right then I new that no longer would we be called the Risen Kingdom, but the Fallen Kingdom.

CHAPTER I

I opened my heavy eyelids to find myself staring at my bedroom ceiling. "It was a dream. It was all a dream!" I whispered to myself. I decided that I shouldnt spoil it by being careless, what if it wasnt a dream? I sat up and swung my legs over the side of my bed. Bad idea. An excrutiating pain shot up my legs. I clapped my hands over my mouth to muffle my scream. I couldnt see my legs because they were under my night gown. I took the hem gingerly and lifted it up. Mistake number 2. As I lifted my gown farther up, the whole side of my leg was red and flaky. It looked like it was made out of wax. I stared at in disbelief. A thousand emotions rushed through me that I couldnt even pick one out. So I did what I do best, I cried. I heaved big heavy sobs until I thought my tears could fill the Nile River in Egypt. For me, this was the end. But I was very wrong. It was the end, but only the end of the beginning.
