"Queen! Wake up wake up!" I hear the whisper of Daniel.
My eyes fluttered as I awoken. Different scents hit my nose. The noise of bustling people, screams and cries echoed through my ears as if I was in a cave. As my eyes adjust, I notice that the sun was indeed up. A thick cloud wrapped around the sun. I look to see a mere green sign that was coated in a thick substance but it clear the sign stated:

"Do not dare to enter!"

I frown as I look at the sign.

"We are here Queen! We are here! But you must hurry! Please hurry !" Daniel and Joseph screeches through my ears.
Each child walked to either side of my arm and raised me off the ground.

How did I get here?
I was sleeping and now I am in another place?!

"Where am I?" I spoke.

"The town, you must go in, the king is awaiting for you" The children's cries began to sound like a thousand cries all in one.
I began to tarry into the town.

As I look, the town seem to be deserted from where I stood. The town seemed swept clean, signs hanging from posts rocked back and forth from the wind.
The only thing that was demonstrating that the town is occupied was the mere screams and yells in the distant.

I walk a few feet before stopping.

"Where is-" I began to speak as I turn around.
But I gasp when I no longer see the children who helped me get to town.
In their placement was white smoke.
I turn back to the town, walking carefully, allowing the screams and yells from the distance to guide me.
Surely something is happening, I can perhaps receive help.

As I got closer, I can see a crowd of people. Those in the back were jumping, all trying to get a clear view of what was happening in the front.

Suddenly, a smell, a scent, that smelled of mint and nature. I bit my bottom lip for the scent seemed to be putting me in a trance. A trance which I have never been in.

My legs began to move like they have a mind of their own, my arms pushed the crowd of people out of my way. A familiar voice began to echo through my ears, merely giving a slight tingle sensation.
A smile had spat across my face.

He's here
Farrah said before my legs began to take off into a sprint, pushing even more people until I was in front of the crowd, people gasped with shocked looks upon their faces as they all looked at me.
Why were they staring?

I turn my head, to see him....those blueish-green eyes. Like a waterfall, memories pulled into my head. I began to remember things, things that I was completely clueless about just before.

"Eron!" I yell.
The crowd became silent as all eyes stared at me. I look up upon the stage where he stood.

That is where I saw a lady.
long black hair with a small dot just under her nose. Her eyes seemed to sparkle, like how Daniel's and Joseph's eyes did. Her pale skin seems to be almost drained of all life but she merely stared at me as well. She smiled brightly.

"It worked"
Although I was quite far from her, I still heard those very words.
I pitied the woman, why was she standing upon a barrel with a noose wrapped around her neck?

I turn to Eron, to see him sniffing the air before looking about the audience. We made eye contact and on instant, we began running to one another.
My body leaped into his arms as he held me tightly. My whole body tingled with sparks.
Farrah yelped loudly, almost blocking out the hooting and hollering that was made from the crowd after an announcement had said "The Queen has returned!"
I lift my head to look into Eron's eyes.
His eyes seemed glossy before he smashes his lips into mine. My lips tingled to where I couldn't control it. I wrap my arms around him tightly as I kiss him back with a deep passion.

I never want to let him go, I want to stay in this placement forever.

"Your majesty" a sudden voice spoke.

"Your majesty!"

Your majesty!" The voice spoke again, clearly not aware that they were being purposely ignored.

What what?" Eron spoke through our kisses. I reluctantly unlocked my lips from his as he slowly placed me upon the ground, but not letting go of my waist.

"The execution?" A short stubby man spoke.

"Ahh, I completely forgot, we shall continue later, place the woman back into the cage. I must spend some time with my love" Eron spoke with a smile. His cheeks were turning a bright red.

The stubby man bows before turning to me and kissing my hand.
I hear a low growl from Eron whilst the stubby man quickly snatches his hand from me.
I giggle as the stubby man walks to the middle of the stage and announces

"The execution shall continue later, until then, please return to your homes. The King wishes to spend time with the found Queen!"

The crowd cheered as they departed. I take a glance at the woman on the barrel to see a guard slashing the noose and letting the woman down gently. They put shackles upon her wrist and led her off the stage. The woman steals another glance at me before the guards aggressively shoves her off the platform we stood upon.

I somewhat feel some sort of connection with that woman

I frown at Farrah's comment.

connection?

with a woman I had not known existed until today? I must have been deep in my thoughts , for when Eron place a kiss upon my lips, it startled me a bit.

"Come now, there are people who has been waiting years for your arrival" Eron spoke as he too walked me off the stage into a carriage that was guarded by many guards.

Remember: ISABELLA HAVE ALL HER MEMORY BACK SO SHE REMEMBERS ALL THE PEOPLE SHE MET AND STUFF, even the mysterious guest who Eron keeps saying she will meet after she "finds herself "  BUT YEAHH ⭐️and⌨️ and thanks for reading!!
